Chapter 86 Brandon Has a Girlfriend Thankfully, Brandon caught her, because if anything had happened to the child, she would never forgive Kennedy! Kennedy clenched her teeth in resentment. Since so many men liked Penelope, she decided to complain to Mr. Davis about her.
Determined, Kennedy rushed to the office. She stood in front of Kelvin and tically recounted the whole incident- "Penelope almost caused a disaster. I took her to meet Mr. Walker to train her and to cultivate her, but look what happened, she spent all her ttrying to seduce men... How can we keep such an employee! And when we left, Mr. Walker even gave her his business card.
I bet it won't be long before Penelope gets on Mr. Walker's good side. Today she was not just making eyes but also throwing herself at him, pretending to fall and ended up in Mr. Walker's arms!" Kelvin sat on the sofa, legs crossed, listening indifferently.
Seeing no reaction from Mr. Davis, Kennedy was puzzled.
Perhaps she hadn't painted Penelope as loose and flirtatious enough? Just as Kennedy was about to speak again, Kelvin waved his hand:"Get out." "Mr. Davis, I every word I said is true." Kelvin suddenly stood up: "I told you to get out! Scram!" His fury was more than Kennedy could bear, and she fled the office in a panic.
Kelvin's chest heaved, and the veins on his temples throbbed.
Penelope's ability to attract men was indeed impressive! Of course, now that Nathan was abroad, she couldn't stand being alone. Today, upon meeting Brandon, she hooked up with him right away! Kelvin kicked over a chair and stormed out of the office.
Night fell.
Because she went to meet Brandon in the afternoon, Penelope had to work overtuntil eight to catch up. Everything went smoothly, with no disturbances.

He tilted his chin up: "The thing in your pocket, take it out." "I..." "Take it out!" With no choice, Penelope complied and took out Brandon's business card. Kelvin snatched it and flung it at her face:"Are you that desperate for men?" Penelope guessed what had happened; Kennedy must have tattled to Kelvin.
"I was just doing my job," she said. "Mr. Walker appreciatedand left a business card. I haven't even saved his number in my phone, and I don't plan to." She knew Brandon's status well.
She was a sinner, pregnant, living a bleak life firmly controlled by Kelvin-she could never get close to a gentleman like Brandon.
Penelope had self-awareness.
"Why did Brandon give only you his card?" Kelvin countered. "Because of your charm, because you know how to lure men?" Penelope bit her lip: "Can't you be reasonable?" "I am the reason!" She fell silent, adopting an attitude of indifference.
After all, she was innocent, and she had nothing to fear if her conscience was clear.
Kelvin was just being... unreasonable.
And Penelope's silence only angered him further.
"Flipping the bird, overtaking, seducing men... you're getting bolder," Kelvin said darkly. "Penelope, one must pay the price for their actions!" "Just say it, how do you want to torment me?" Penelope knew that after last night, Kelvin would be even more ruthless with her.
"Kneel," Kelvin narrowed his eyes, "until you admit your mistake." She didn't move.
"Do I need to help bend your knees?" Penelope looked at him:"Aren't you... someone who doesn't hit women?" Kelvin snorted and forcefully nudged her knee with his own! In pain, she fell to her knees with a thud.
"Know your place," Kelvin said. "Brandon has a girlfriend; he would never look at you." Penelope, stubborn to the core, retorted: "I'm not Fiona, I don't enjoy being a mistress and meddling in relationships." "He's my woman." "So she's a mistress." Kelvin bent down, lifting her chin: "You go ahead and use your Mrs. Davis status to suppress her. Penelope, once we're divorced, if I sleep with you, you beca mistress... becoming the very thing you despise!" Penelope clenched her teeth:"You're shameless!" Kelvin's grip tightened.
"Shameless!" she still spat out, her jaw almost dislocated, but she had to vent her frustration.
"Kneel for an extra hour." Kelvin dropped the sentence and walked away.
"Are you jealous?!" Penelope called after his retreating figure. "Kelvin, because I hit it off with Brandon, you're jealous!" He had said before that she was jealous.
Now it seemed, he could be jealous too.
Kelvin didn't turn back:"Brandon is beyond your wildest dreams, I'm just punishing you." Jealousy? Ridiculous! That was an emotion he would never entertain! Planning your weekend reading?

The living room was empty except for the ticking of the clock.
After the thad passed, Penelope stood up, her legs numb and without sensation, and she sat on the sofa massaging them for a long time.

She could never approach Brandon, a man of such elegance and status, they were worlds apart.
But... since Brandon had promised to help her, she would seek him out if she ever faced a truly seek insurmountable difficulty. At least she had one more option, one more path to consider.
She hoped she would never have to face such a day of desperation.
In the master bedroom.
Penelope pushed the door open just as Kelvin cout of the bathroom.
He was casually wrapped in a towel, his muscular upper body still wet with droplets.
"Ah." Penelope gasped, turning her face away.
Couldn't this man put on pajamas after his bath? "What's with the act, you've seen it before," Kelvin said coolly. "And it's not like you haven't touched." "You, you..." She stammered, her face turning red uncontrollably.
Penelope was a girl with a thin skin, not very familiar with matters of men and women, with only one night's experience.
How could he so casually utter such words?
"Embarrassed?" Kelvin scoffed. "If yese you had any sense of shame, you wouldn't be pregnant with a bastard." "He's not a bastard!" "Then who's the father? Why doesn't he dare to show up and take responsibility?" Penelope fell silent.
She would never forget that night, nor the words "I will marry you."
