Bridgerton Fanfiction Penelope Runs Away 소설 & 이야기

"It's okay, darling. You're fine." She turned to me, her eyes full of hurt and accusation. "If you have any conscience at all, you should comfort our son." I ignored her, my face blank, and stood up. "You'll receive the divorce papers tomorrow. Sign them as soon as you can." The guests exchanged glances, whispering among themselves. "All this over a fountain pen? Has Alex lost his mind?" "They were supposed to be a model couple in the industry. What went wrong?" "Do you have to ask? Obviously, there's someone else…"

He tried to reach out to Penelope's hand but she dodged him. Penelope suddenly gritted her teeth while glancing at everyone. She got embarrassed, I believed. "Let's settle this in the apartment once and for all," she said back before she hops into the car and took off. As soon as Penelope disappeared from the party, Aiden also hops onto the bike and followed Penelope, leaving me alone, glancing at everyone's curious faces, including Karen. If not because Conrad lending me his car keys and whispering that I must follow Penelope and Aiden, my wolf could have stayed there until everyone disappeared.

Where is Penelope? The grand door at the back creaked open, and the crowd collectively turned, anticipation thick in the air. A man in a black suit entered, shoulders squared, and briskly walked to his father. Not the bride. A guard. The murmurs returned—with louder, malicious murmurs of speculation. “She’s run away.” A woman at the front was saying. “The Jones girl’s missing?” Another one said. “Leaving him at the altar. Such a nasty thing to do.”

she heard one of the men order. Despite her distraught state, she knew she needed to start moving. She ran out of the room, headed to the library room where there was a door leading outside. The men heard her running and followed the sound, but before they reached the laundry room, she was already out of the house. They ran after her. Penelope ran as fast as she could. Her sister's house was quite deserted, so there was no chance of seeing a cab around. She ran into the woods, figuring it was easier to hide from the men.

The instability. The scandal. The defiance. Lucian didn’t announce anything. He didn’t need to. His hand on mine said enough. ------------------------------------------ For the first hour, it was subtle. Conversations flowed. Wine poured. Politics wrapped in politeness. But eyes followed us everywhere. Whispers trailed. “She ran from the wedding.” “They broke the engagement.” “Her father won’t allow this.” Let them whisper. I felt it then – the old instinct to disappear. To stand half a step behind.

Wait, Helen, please wait," Jonah shouted, but to no avail. Helen took a taxi and dressed as a bride, asked the driver to take her out of town. At the time, she was on the run from her wedding. The driver barely looked at her in the rearview mirror, but she didn't say a word. I just wanted to escape this unexpected event. The limousine arrived at the church. When this happened, all the guests sighed. An hour and fifteen minutes had passed since the appointed time. Helen's father breathed a sigh of relief and elbowed his wife.

"I clearly don't." Penelope's face contorted in shock, hurt, and betrayal. Tears streamed down her cheeks as she spat out her words. "Well, from this day forward, I don't care about you either. You can rot in this hellhole for all I care." With a final, venomous glance, Penelope spun on her heel and ran out the door, slamming it shut behind her. The house shook with the force of her departure. Arc felt the reverberations deep within, emotions swirling to the surface like a maelstrom.

~~~~~~~~~~ The next day I woke up to a call from Liam, sitting up and reached for the phone placed on my table, I placed it against my ear. “What’s up?” I asked as I got out of bed, making my way to the bathroom. "The police went to arrest Penelope this morning but she escaped. Seemed like someone tipped her off or whatever but they can’t find her or her father. It’s like they both disappeared from the face of earth.” He says and I felt my knees weaken “Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! This isn’t good news at all. The Leonor’s have crazy money and can do anything” I say, already feeling an headache coming up. Today’s supposed to be the day everything will be sorted but now? Penelope escaped. What the fuck?

So, she bade goodbye to her idea of doing the cliché; escaping through the toilet's window. Finding her stance, Isabella reasoned that it was better she went out. If at all Anthony had not totally changed, one thing about him is that he never gives up till he gets that he want. And she knew better than to try to drag the situation at hand. "Finally," her eyes evading his own, Isabella resumed walking. Like she expected, he did not allow it. Isabella immediately felt her arm being slightly pulled, next thing, her chest was glued to his huge body, she looked so little in his hold. "I won't allow you run this time around Bella."

Especially Coco. His eyes fell on the woman who attempted to leave the wedding venue, and for old time's sake, he decided to give her a last favour. As she left the venue, he followed her. Sabrina yelped in surprise as he stood in front of her again. “You! You! Why is it you again?” Nathaniel crossed his arms over his chest and asked, “Why can't it be me?” She accused him, “You made me crazy! Why did you run away? Nobody believes me! It's happening because of you!”
