All Chapters of Second Chance at Love: From Divorcee to the Billionaire's Bride: Chapter 271 - Chapter 280

"We get along well."Even at this point, Luke was still being evasive!Why not take this opportunity to confess?I was getting anxious on his behalf."Will Mr. Walker make a public announcement when you officially start dating?" Joey continued to inquire."It's too early to discuss that."Luke stood up, and Joey signaled the photographer to stop filming, ending the interview."I hope Ms. Parker will keep her promise and not add her own speculations to the interview content.""I wouldn't dare add anything. If Mr. Walker were to bury this interview, all my efforts would be wasted!"The interview's content about Luke's personal life alone would be enough to boost sales.Joey seemed pleased with the interview, her face beaming with joy.Luke left for work, and I stayed behind to see Joey out.Joey took the laptop from Penelope's hands. "Did you record everything Luke just said?""Every word, without missing any.""Why did you record this part? Do you want people to know I was

"Last time I visited your place, I noticed that you had a pet dog. I ordered some toys for the dog online and had them shipped to your address. The packages should be arriving in the next few days. Please keep an eye out for them."After reading Penelope's message, I felt a mixture of emotions.Why did someone as kind as Penelope have to suffer so much?For years, she had been wandering alone in various cities. Now that I was also alone, I didn't want her to live in solitude anymore. I called her, hoping to convince her to stay in Johnsonville.If Uncle Paul and Aunt Karen came looking for her, I would do my best to help her escape from them."Sorry, the number you have dialed is switched off."Penelope probably needed some time alone.I sent her a message asking her to stay, and then asked Bryan to escort Joey out of the company. I returned to my desk with a heavy heart.By the time I finished work that evening, it was completely dark outside.I had overcome my trauma and cou

"You seem to have a great understanding of your pet dog's thoughts, huh?”Luke's words seemed to have a deeper meaning, but upon careful consideration, I couldn't discern any hidden message.Goofy had curled up into a ball, his whole body radiating rejection towards my Samoyed. I picked up my energetic Samoyed, ready to head home."Marianne takes care of Goofy during the day. You can bring your dog over. Maybe they will become more comfortable with each other over time.""My Samoyed is too energetic. I'm worried it might frighten Goofy."Goofy was far from what I imagined a typical Husky to be. I had concerns that my Samoyed might terrify him."He needs to gather his courage."Upon hearing this, I glanced at my excited Samoyed, whining to get closer to Goofy, and pondered for a moment. "Then I'll trouble Marianne. I'll prepare everything early tomorrow and bring him to your place."Luke murmured in agreement, and we engaged in a conversation about our experiences raising dogs.

I buckled my seatbelt and started the car. "Mr. Walker, it's getting late. Shouldn't you send Ms. Parker home?""Stephen is on his way here."Stephen, Joey, Luke - could they be in one of those cliché drama situations where he likes her, but she likes someone else? A complicated love triangle?Being liked by both Stephen and Luke, two top-tier eligible bachelors, Joey seemed like the lead in a romantic movie.Although this leading lady's personality was... questionable.Not only did Luke need to get his eyes checked, but Stephen did too!"Jen, my rented apartment is on Middle Road. You can drop me off at the next intersection," Penelope said."You're staying with me tonight.""Jen, things have completely soured between me and Joey. She has my parents' contact information. If they find out I'm staying with you, they'll think we're close. If they can't find me, they'll keep bothering you. I've already caused you so much trouble. I can't let you worry about me anymore," Penelope s

"At first, I didn't know how he was connected to Joey. He's a bit intellectually slow, but after getting to know me, he could sense my moods. Today, when he saw me, he could tell I was feeling down, so he quietly followed me without disturbing me.""He saw someone bullying me at the bar and intervened. He ended up getting beaten, and we were taken to the police station. It wasn't until the police contacted Joey that I realized they were siblings.""Is that why Joey has been targeting you all along?" I asked. It would make sense if that were the case."I'm not sure," Penelope shook her head slightly. "He's very different from her.”"He's like a child, innocent and kind without understanding social norms. He's the complete opposite of Joey," I remarked. Despite his low IQ, he stood up for Penelope when she was being bullied, which already put him above many men!"Was he badly hurt?" I asked."I'm not sure. When he was being beaten, I tried to intervene, but he pushed me against the
