Chapter 451 That Brief Moment Of Vulnerability Was An Illusion

At that moment, Caleb stood behind Penny with his chest pressed against her back. He was also looking out of the window.Penny could almost hear the sound of his heartbeat.When she had blow-dried Caleb’s hair the previous night and he held her in his arms without saying a word, she got a vague feeling that Caleb was upset.Perhaps it was because women were naturally inclined to feel maternal, so she empathized with him.It was as if she was the one who had been discarded.She thought to herself, ‘But could that be true for Caleb? He’s a prodigy. Just a beckon from him could make countless people do anything for him.’As such, she dismissed that fleeting feeling in her mind.That was because Caleb had regained his strong stance after that brief moment.It was as though that brief moment of vulnerability had been an illusion.Caleb increased the distance between them. He made a call to the person in charge to tell them that he was safe at the cottage. He asked them not to worry

Chapter 452 Does She Actually Like Me?

Meanwhile, on Penny's side, the sandstorm showed no signs of stopping anytime soon.She sat in the chair for a bit before she started feeling tired.Caleb checked the injury on her knee and found that it was healing well. "We'll have to make do here for the night. The only way out is blocked due to a landslide. We can't go back until the sandstorm stops and the county’s road inspectors clear the path."A large boulder was blocking the road, and it would require more than one person to move it.Penny wondered how Caleb knew about the landslide.Nonetheless, she kept her questions to herself.Things felt a little awkward once they stopped talking, especially in such weather where they had no choice but to stay together in a makeshift shelter-like house.Caleb was a germaphobe and did not feel comfortable in his dusty clothes.In just a minute, Penny saw him furrowing his brows multiple times.She hurried to the bathroom. She was relieved to find that although it was narrow, ther

Chapter 453 Whoever Was Behind All These Was Gunning For Her

Penny grabbed Caleb's shirt and made her way to the bathroom for a shower. Her hair was damp when she came out, so she used a hairdryer to dry it. She put her hair in a casual twist before she hesitantly sat on the bed.Glancing at the clock, she realized it was already ten in the evening. The outside had plunged into darkness.The sandstorm continued to bang on the windows, but aside from that, the interior of the house felt surprisingly cozy.Although there was an absence of air conditioning, the sandstorm made the room slightly chilly.Penny sneezed, which prompted Caleb to wrap his arms around her with his chest against her back."Feeling cold?" There were no other blankets, but at least the bed was soft."A little." His chin rested on the top of her head, and he pulled her close. The sound of Penny's heart beating wildly resonated in her ears, adding an edge of unease to the moment.However, his embrace made her feel much warmer. It was not cold to begin with in the s

Chapter 454 Giving Birth To A Son Was The Only Thing That Mattered

Penny's concern for Zane was paramount, given that he only had three months to live. She was determined to find Maeve's child within that time frame even though the task seemed more daunting than scaling a mountain.A sleepless night passed, and the sandstorm had ceased the following morning. Union County's officials arrived to check in on them."Mr. Fergerson, we're relieved to see you safe.""Yesterday, we were worried sick. You..."The official intended to ask him why he left the villa by car, but a warning look from Caleb prompted him to hold his tongue.The group returned to the county town, and Penny found herself seated next to Caleb once again. She could distinctly feel Leo's gaze upon her. It was filled with resentment and disappointment.When they arrived at Union Square, Penny had barely stepped out of the car when she heard Jenni's voice in the distance. She was berating her loudly.Jenni approached with determined strides, her hand raised as if to slap Penny."

Chapter 455 Conceive His Child As Soon As Possible!

Penny remained oblivious to the Eastons' turmoil as she was preoccupied with her urgent return to Imperial City. Caleb needed to stay back to discuss the development of the beach, so she embarked on the journey alone.Concern lingered in her mind as she wondered if The Rosarium, too, had fallen victim to the thieves. After hours of driving, she arrived at The Rosarium.Nani was sound asleep inside the house. While Penny was away, she got people to feed and take care of her.She looked around and was relieved to find no signs of intrusion. She promptly ordered surveillance cameras—one for the entrance and three others for the living room and various areas. They would allow her to monitor the premises remotely.The house did not hold many valuable items, the most noteworthy being the blank notebook she had received as a birthday gift. It was unclear what was tucked inside that blank notebook.She furrowed her brows, picked up the box, and headed to Dawn Haven Villa.The out

Chapter 456 What’s That Woman Up To Now?!

Penny sued Yvette without any hesitation!She submitted the evidence of the painting her master had given her as proof. Yvette had never experienced such humiliation in her life. However, if she refused to comply, it would be seen as contempt of court.She trembled with anger as she looked at the lawyer who delivered the summons."What else did she say?"Yvette had hired the lawyer. She was caught off guard as she did not expect Penny to take this route. It was also a surprise for the lawyer that someone was suing their husband's grandmother, especially in a prestigious family like the Fergersons.In such elite families, the wives who married into the family usually treated the husband's side of the family with utmost respect. Someone so daring was unprecedented.Word had already spread in Imperial City. Some even went to the Fergersons to inquire about the situation.Liam was among the first to hear about it. He was dumbfounded and nearly choked on his drink. "Say that

Chapter 457 Is There Something Wrong With This Woman?

"Grandpa, I have something to attend to in Union County."Sir Fergerson's gaze immediately turned sharp."Why do you keep returning there? Are you seeing some woman over there?"Caleb's heart skipped a beat as he feared that Sir Fergerson might dig into it and discover something. That might lead to Penny being sent away.Sir Fergerson's methods were just as ruthless as his."I'll be back this afternoon."His tone was casual, but a familiar sense of annoyance settled in after he hung up the call.Caleb sent a message to Penny.[What exactly are you trying to achieve?]Penny pursed her lips when she saw the message he sent to her private number.[I'm protecting my legal rights.]Caleb found it amusing and thought to himself, ‘Legal rights? What rights does she have to speak of?’[Withdraw the lawsuit.][Why?]Caleb's anger flared up immediately when he saw her one-word reply.However, for some reason, the tone did not quite match the image he had of her. Caleb wondered,

Chapter 458 Do You Think He'll Let You Off Easily?

Union County was in chaos. Jenni was aware that her unborn child was not going to make it, so she resorted to an outrageous act of trying to make Caleb responsible by faking an accident.She had only sustained minor injuries when she was thrown several meters away. However, she had to sell the story, so she clutched her abdomen as blood pooled around her feet."My baby! My unborn baby! Mr. Fergerson, you need to compensate me! I'll be tied to you for the rest of my life unless you pay me four million!"Caleb had never encountered such a shameless woman in his life. He drove back to Union Square and left the matter to the officials to handle.In difficult and harsh conditions, individuals may resort to cunning or unscrupulous behavior to survive or achieve their goals. However, Jenni’s behavior had crossed the line even for the Union County officials. Caleb was a distinguished guest in Union County. It could ruin the lives of many if he opted to put a stop to the development proje

Chapter 459 Penny, What Are You Up To With This Getup?

Jeremy had his own agenda. He absolutely could not let Penny's identity be exposed. After his previous incident, he could not afford to continue being a fool and for Caleb to end up winning over Penny.He thought to himself, ‘Since Caleb likes Charlotte, he can continue liking her. After all, Penny doesn't fit in with the Fergersons.’Jeremy was well-prepared. He led Penny to a private dressing room. Under the skillful hands of the makeup artist, Penny's face was painted with numerous fake pimples. She also put on a hat. Her clothes were an unattractive brown-green combination, forming a truly tasteless appearance.Penny looked at her reflection in the mirror. She could only see some of the pimples on her face due to the hat and the black-framed glasses that covered most of her face. She looked completely unrecognizable.Jeremy stood behind her, marveling at the transformation. "Even your father won't be able to recognize you like this. You can just say you have pollen allerg

Chapter 460 Wanted Nothing More Than To Slap Penny Across The Face

Charlotte's face drained of color as she showed an expression of disbelief. She had thought Penny was an easy target and did not expect her to be skilled with words.Charlotte could not refute even a single sentence!Moreover, people around them had already started to comment."I've always wanted to say this, but Charlotte's behavior is indeed that of a mistress.""She's flaunting that necklace in front of the wife. How shameless.""The Shaws aren't even a top-tier family. What is she showing off about?"Charlotte felt as though she had an out-of-body experience. She stared hatefully at Penny.She thought to herself, ‘How dare this ugly freak humiliate me like this?! Bitch! Wretched woman!’She was about to lose her composure. She wanted nothing more than to slap Penny across the face!Nonetheless, she had to restrain herself.At the crucial moment, Madam Yvette spoke up to help Charlotte out."That’s enough. We're here tonight to appraise the painting. There’s no point ta
