Penny found it amusing. It was all out of Caleb's own initiative. What did it have to do with her?She shook off Khloe's hand."Ms. Strauss, are you breaking down because you wanted so desperately to be someone's girlfriend but were rejected? You don't dare to lash out at Caleb, so you're venting your anger on me instead?"Khloe was trembling all over, her fingers shaking as she pointed at Penny's face."I'll kill you!"She hurled her handbag at Penny with all her might. Penny instinctively blocked it in order to dodge.The handbag rebounded onto Khloe's own head.Khloe saw stars before her eyes and then fell backward, fainting.This time, she was genuinely infuriated and felt a sharp pain in her heart.She had used a self-harming strategy but failed to completely separate Caleb and Penny. It seemed now she had to rely on her heart condition!She was determined to have her parents come to Imperial City in person to finalize her marriage with Caleb.Seeing her fall, Penny was

He took a few steps closer and noticed that Penny had not shifted her gaze away, so he moved closer."Actually, I'm pretty good at playing basketball too," he said, his breath tickling her ear.Penny remembered Sir Fergerson once saying that Caleb, around the age of 15 or 16, was quite unruly. He was always fighting hard but was always the most dazzling one.Unfortunately, she never had the luck to see it.She silently pushed his body away with her elbow when he leaned in. Only when the boy, who was surrounded by the crowd, came over after wiping his sweat did she call out, "Kaden."Kaden was holding his school uniform by his fingertips. He finished wiping off his sweat and then meticulously put on his uniform. He zipped it up to the top before returning to his cold demeanor.Nonetheless, he recognized Penny and asked, "Is there something you need?"Penny glanced at the time. "You have 20 minutes before class starts. Can you spare me ten minutes? I'd like to talk to you."Kaden

"Penny, go in there to change. After changing, you can come out and soak in the bath. Haven't you been working overtime recently? Soaking should help you relax."Penny rubbed her somewhat sore neck, and the next second, a cool hand very naturally landed on her neck."Let me massage it for you."It must be said that when Caleb really pursued someone, he could also humble himself significantly.At this moment, there was no one around. With the steam rising from the hot spring pool, the setting could not be more intimate.Adding to that, the two of them were close. His hand was still gently massaging her neck. "Is the pressure okay?"Penny lowered her eyelashes. "I'm going to change."She had indeed been very tired recently, and the opportunity to comfortably soak in a hot spring was more than welcome. Moreover, peaceful days like these might soon be gone, considering Khloe was still hospitalized. It was uncertain how the Strausses would deal with her, who was said to be the inst

Penny was kissed into a daze and could not utter a single word afterward.Caleb pressed her down in the hot spring twice, then lifted her up and pressed her against the wall in the changing room.Knowing he would not get to indulge again sometime soon, he took his fill the entire night.Penny was exhausted. She fell asleep and did not wake up until the next evening.Feeling as if her body had fallen apart, she recognized the familiar ceiling and knew she was in Kensington Gardens.Her memories were fragmented. First, she was surprised. Then, her chest trembled with fury. Just as she was about to get out of bed, the door opened. Looking perfectly decent, Caleb brought in some oatmeal."Penpen, you're awake."Penny took a deep breath, her expression chilly."Explain."He placed the oatmeal aside. He stirred it, blew on it, and held it to her lips."Eat first."Penny turned her head away. She was too angry to speak, let alone eat.Caleb set the spoon down, sighed softly, and

When Caleb entered the private room, it was filled with many people from his circle."Hey, have you guys heard about that new company that suddenly emerged? It snatched all the Strausses' business in Imperial City, and its market value is already in the billions, even before going public.""Yeah, I heard. They even invested in that big IP in the east of the city. They probably don't have to worry about making a profit for the next three years.""Apparently, it's going to be listed on the stock exchange next month. I'm really curious about who the owner behind it is."Sitting aside, Caleb listened to the discussions about the company before the conversation shifted to beautiful women.Someone noticed Quentin had been silent all along and teased him."When Finn came over the other day, his neck was scratched by a woman. Liam has several girlfriends too. It seems Quentin is probably the only innocent one left here."Quentin was always the quietest at gatherings. Being a doctor, he
