Chapter 428 As Long as Dad is Here, You Still Have a HBrandon would do anything for Penelope without a fuss, but he knew it wasn't love.
It was a feeling.
'What if Penelope was that little girl?' he thought to himself.
Brandon wanted to believe it but didn't want to jump to conclusions. It seemed too coincidental! 'Maybe Penelope's birthmark was different from Ms. Mitchell's? Even if both were heart-shaped and on the waist, maybe the shapes or positions were slightly off?' he pondered.
"Uncle Brandon? Uncle Brandon?" Sam called out, "What are you thinking about? You keep zoning out." "Nothing. Sam, does anyone else know about your mom's birthmark?" "Just a few. Mom's a woman, you know. She can't just show her body to anyone." Brandon nodded.
He wished he could check Penelope's birthmark right now.

Still, if he asked, Penelope would probably agree. After all, he had helped her a lot.
Brandon wanted to see it, but he was scared it would be a false hope, a misunderstanding, or not the birthmark he hoped for, fearing Penelope was just Penelope.
Brandon worried too much and was too cautious.
Because Ms. Mitchell was the love of his life! But Brandon would find a way to subtly ask about Penelope's background.
If Penelope was Ms. Mitchell, then she wasn't the Cooper family's biological daughter! He was deep in thought when Sam suddenly pointed, "Aunt Isabella is here." Brandon was a bit dazed, looking at Isabella, but his mind was filled with memories of the little girl's every smile and frown.
"Brandon. there, vou are. I've been looking for, vou everywhere." Isabella walked over. naturally pushing Sam aside and slipping her arm through his, "Why do you look so pale? Did something happen?" Brandon shook his head, "Nothing." "It's tto eat. The food will get cold." "Okay. Let's go." Brandon took a few steps and suddenly turned back, "Sam, keep up." "Coming." There was Sam again.
Isabella had seen him several times already.
"Brandon," she finally couldn't hold back and asked casually, "You seem to like him a lot. I've seen you playing with him and even holding him several times." "Yeah, kids are cute and sweet-talking. Who wouldn't like them?" Isabella tentatively said, "If you like kids so much, we can have one soon." She was certainly willing to have children with Brandon.
In fact, it was her dream.
But Isabella's health wasn't great, and she had been taking medicine for years.
The doctor's advice was to wait a bit longer before having children.
Brandon was concerned about her health, so he never brought up the topic of children. Besides, they were only engaged, not officially married.
It was too early to have children.

If I wait longer, it'll be tough to regain my shape." "How could I dislike you because of your figure?" Isabella smiled, "I would dislike myself." "My silly girl." Sam suddenly shivered.
"Hmm?" Brandon looked at him, "Cold? Or bitten by a mosquito?" Sam shook his head repeatedly.
"Then what's the matter?" "It's so cheesy!" Sam replied.
Brandon tugged on Sam's ear, "You little rascal." Sam stuck out his tongue, broke free from Brandon's hand, and ran ahead quickly, "I'm so hungry, I'm going hfirst!" "Slow down, don't fall." "Got it!" Actually, Sam didn't want to see Isabella. Seeing Brandon being so affectionate with her made him want to throw up! He just didn't like Isabella! No chemistry! Brandon kept an eye on Sam's back, worried he might trip or fall. He looked just like a father.
Isabella noticed his expression and could tell he genuinely liked Sam. But in her memory, Brandon had always been indifferent to children. When E relatives' kids visited, he would only politely ask a few questions and wouldn't even hold them. But with this Sam kid, it was different.

At the Cooper family mansion, Connor saw Penelope and stood up in surprise, "Penelope, you're back?" He looked behind her and saw no one. Just her? Where were Kelvin and Lucy?' he meditated.
"Penelope..." Connor sensed something was wrong, "What happened?" Looking at her most respected father, Penelope's grievances surged like a tidal wave. She couldn't hold back anymore and burst into tears in front of Connor. She didn't have to pretend to be strong anymore! Connor held her, gently patting her back, "Penelope, cry, you'll feel better after crying. Dad is here. Dad is with you. No matter what, as long as Dad is here, you have a hto return to." Yes, she still had Connor and a home. Otherwise, Penelope would really have nowhere to go and no hto return to! Connor was always her last refuge! Penelope didn't know how long she cried, and her throat was a bit hoarse.
"Dad, Lucy doesn't recognize me," Penelope said, "She calls someone else mommy." "What?"
Penelope sobbed and told Connor what had happened. Connor listened, his mouth agape in shock, not knowing what to say How did things Gom turn out this way? "Penelope," Connor sighed, "I thought better days were coming your way. Even if things didn't go well, you could still live a peaceful and happy life, but..." "Fortunately, I still have Sam." "Thanks to Brandon," Connor said, "He's really a good person. In the four years you were gone, he and Nathan visited the most frequently, always bringinga lot of things." Penelope sat on the couch, her eyes swollen like peaches. Connor patted her shoulder, "Hungry? I'll make you spasta. Eat something." She nodded. It had been a long tsince she last tasted Connor's cooking.
When the pasta was served, it was still steaming. Penelope picked up a fork and slowly started eating.
