All Chapters of The Ex-Wife Guide: Mr. Fergerson Persists On Lavish Affection: Chapter 441 - Chapter 450

Penny stood dazedly in the living room after he left. She only moved when her stomach began growling. She raised a hand to her burning cheeks. She even felt short of breath. Hoping to conceal that fact, she quickly patted her cheeks and went to the bathroom to splash some cold water on her face. She then opened the doors to her fridge. However, there was nothing in her fridge besides a pack of noodles. She was ravenous and had no choice but to make herself a plain bowl of noodles seasoned only with salt. After forcing herself to finish half of the noodles, she washed her bowl and pot. She tossed and turned while lying in bed. The words Caleb had said to her right before leaving replayed themselves in her head. Penny was an old-fashioned woman, which, given the circumstances, might sound ridiculous. However, before marrying Caleb, all she had dared do with her crush was form a secret pact that they would only date after getting into college because she was told not to date

Moreover, Yvette had a tendency to mutter things like 'Charlotte seems like a wonderful girl. She’s a wonderful artist, and Caspian spoke to her today. I wonder if he’s developing feelings for her?'Charlotte was good at art and considered talented among her peers. She was the one who would most likely become Robert’s disciple. Hence, she managed to break Yvette’s prejudiced views on a person's family background. Yvette allowed her to marry into the Fergerson family. Yvette was furious when Caleb and Charlotte began dating. She claimed Caleb had stolen his brother’s wife and would be punished by the heavens. However, after Caspian’s incident, Yvette began asking Caleb how things between him and Charlotte were going. At that moment, though, Caleb did not feel like she was showing him any concern. He felt repulsed instead. It felt like she was trying on Caspian’s behalf to get Charlotte to stay behind. Hence, she hoped that he would take over his brother’s role. That was why

“Allow me to put the hairdryer away, Mr. Fergerson.”Caleb released her. Penny returned the hairdryer to the bathroom and noticed the blister between his fingers when she returned. She immediately knew what it was. After all, she had just gotten burnt herself. Thankfully, she had obtained some ointment when she dropped by the hospital today. She took the ointment and dabbed some onto her finger before taking his hand into hers and using the tip of her finger to gently apply it.Caleb had not been paying attention to her. When he realized what she was doing, the pleasant, herby smell of the ointment had made its way to his nose. His eyelashes fluttered as he turned to look at her. However, Penny was not looking at him. Instead, she was gazing intently at his wound. When she finished treating his wound, she took her hand away and wiped off the excess ointment.Caleb asked her, “Why did you come all the way to Union County? Are you that hung up over that man?” Penny fro

When they arrived, Caleb pulled her out of the car after getting out himself.The group reconvened and listened to the person in charge discuss how the land could be developed. Penny realized that the beach was quite large. She had spent so many years living in Union County but had never known this place existed. Then, she heard the person in charge say, “The only con is that sandstorms sometimes occur here, but the last sandstorm was ten years ago. The device we have isn’t able to make precise detections and warnings, but if we had the proper equipment, this land could definitely be developed.”What he was hinting at was that if Caleb sponsored them with a machine that could accurately detect and send out sandstorm warnings, they would sell this land to him for a cheap price. Caleb cocked an eyebrow. Developing equipment like that was a piece of cake for Fergerson Corporation. “I’ll get someone from the office to scout the area. They’ll arrive this afternoon.”The team in c

Caleb spent the remaining time working. Penny also retrieved her laptop, and the two did not speak to each other.Two hours later, someone knocked on their door and informed them it was time to leave. Caleb put his laptop away and left the room without waiting for Penny. Penny knew he was shunning her. It was alright, though. She had not even felt like going in the first place. She heard car engines revving outside, and someone seemed to ask where she was. Caleb replied, “She isn’t feeling well.” That was enough to further deepen the understanding. Penny worked remotely and waited for Caleb to return.However, the car that Caleb had left still had not returned even after three hours had passed.The sky was darkening rapidly, but not in the usual way the sky darkened into night. It looked like something was blocking the sun from view. Penny abruptly realized that this was a sandstorm! She hurriedly left the room, but there was no one else left at the mansion other tha
