Chapter 176
Soon, Penelope was like putty in his hands, soft and pliable, letting him mold her and taste her as he pleased.
“Hubby p>
“What p>
“I’m now certain that you’re not angry with me anymore p>
Theodore gave her a firm, resounding slap on the backside.
“Did that hurt p>
“Yes p>
“Good. Now I’m really not angry p>
By the time Penelope slid off Theodore’s lap, her legs were weak, her voice was hoarse, and her hair and clothes were a mess. She looked like she had been thoroughly and delightfully ravaged.
Life isn’t easy, she thought. I sell my body and my skills.
“Hubby, I swear I will never make you angry again,” she said, her voice trembling dramatically.
Theodore, immensely satisfied with her attitude, suppressed a laugh. “Now you know how terrifying it is when your husband gets angry, don’t you p>
“Can I have some water p>
“Come here p>
He pulled her back onto his lap, picked up his own glass, and helped her take a few sips.
“It’s so sweet p>
“Is it p>
“It’s because I’m drinking from my husband’s glass p>
“That’s enough p>
“I’m so happy p>
“My husband is rich, handsome, has a great body, and is amazing in bed p>
“You’re laying it on a bit thick p>
“Marrying you makes me the luckiest woman in the world p>
The luckiest woman in the world was then unceremoniously evicted from the office by her husband who was looking utterly disgusted. She. STREA left with a pout on her face, swinging her purse and practically skipping down the hall.
This client was actually quite easy to please. All it took was a thick skin and a sweet tongue.
After leaving Zenith Group, Penelope stopped by KINY Group. While she had the final say on the mall project, Nathan was handling the day to-day operations. Her time in the profect department was temporary; soon, she would be training directly under Mr. Johnson as his successor.
After a quick check-in to ensure everything was on track, she headed home.
As she pulled into her driveway, Mrs. Winters stormed out from across the street and blocked her path.
“My son is being expelled from the university! Are you satisfied now p>
“He’s just a child! How can you be so heartless p>
“You are going to march right back to that school and tell them it was all a misunderstanding! Tell them my son didn’t intentionally frame your brother or try to steal his laptop p>
Penelope shoved Mrs. Winters
aside. The university must have completed its investigation and discovered that Colin had sold his own laptop before trying to steel Timothy’s, His actions were
malicious and premeditated.
“Your son bullies my brother, and you want me to defend him? Why on earth
would I do that p>
“You’re Rebecca’s best friend p>
“Not anymore. We are done. Completely p>
Mrs. Winters was frantic, her eyes red with desperation. She tried to reason with
Penelope but found she had no leverage.
“Penelope, I’m begging you. Please p>
“No p>
With a cold snort, Penelope turned to walk into her house.
“Are you trying to drive me to my death?” Mrs. Winters shrieked.
As if she had the time for that.
Penelope ignored her, but the next moment, Mrs. Winters threw herself against Penelope’s front gate with a loud thud.
Penelope whirled around in shock. Mrs. Winters had slumped to the ground, a cut on her forehead already starting to bleed.
“My son is my life… If you won’t help him… I’ll kill myself on your doorstep p>
At that exact moment, Rebecca ran over and grabbed Penelope’s arm.
“You bully my brother and drive my mother to suicide! I’ll kill you p>
Rebecca started clawing and pulling at her. Penelope instinctively flung her arm back to shake her off. Rebecca stumbled backward and collapsed onto the ground.
“Ugh, my stomach! It hurts!” she cried out. “Penelope, you’re trying to kill my entire family! How can you be so cruel p>
