From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 443 Neither Like a Couple Nor Like Lovers Isabella would just get more suspicious of him, and he'd be stuck in a tough spot.

Sam decided to wait and gather evidence first.

"You handle her for now," Brandon said. "Don't start any conflicts." "Alright, Brandon, let's eat. The kitchen made your favorite." Isabella smiled sweetly, holding Brandon's arm, and gave Sam a sugary smile.

Sam ignored her, broke free from Brandon, and ran downstairs.

"Kids are always so energetic. Brandon, do you prefer boys or girls?" Brandon went silent.

The real Mitchell family heiress had shown up.

He wouldn't marry Isabella anymore.

He didn't know how to break off the engagement.

"Brandon? Brandon?" Isabella shook his hand. "Does it really need that much thought? Boys or girls, it's all good, right?" "Yeah, both are fine." "I prefer girls," Isabella said. "You'll definitely prefer daughters too." Brandon absentmindedly agreed, not wanting to talk about it.

Isabella wisely dropped the subject.

She figured he was just tired from work and didn't want to bother him.

At the Cooper mansion.

After dinner, Penelope went for a walk.

The place was beautiful, perfect for relaxing alone.

But she was worried about Lucy.

Lucy had always been with her, and now she had to let go.

'Was Madison treating Lucy well? Was she being scolded or beaten?' she pondered.

Penelope knew Madison wouldn't dare mistreat Lucy, but raising kids was a long game.

'Would Madison spoil Lucy, letting her eat, drink, and play too much?' 'Would she hurt Lucy's self-esteem?' 'Would she overindulge her, making her arrogant?' The more she thought about it, the more worried she got.

But there was nothing she could do. Lucy saw her as the one who ruined Kelvin and Madison's relationship.

Just then, a sports car roared towards her.

"Kelvin?" The brakes screeched.

Kelvin, one hand on the wheel, frowned.

Why was she by the roadside? He just wanted to be near her to calm down.

Kelvin didn't dare to see her.

He knew that after drinking that soup in front of Madison, Madison would start manipulating him.

He'd end up hurting Penelope.

And the more he saw her, the softer he'd get, making it harder to hurt her.

"Are you looking for me?" Penelope walked to the car window. "Or just passing by?" She was making excuses for him.

This was the suburbs, Davis Group was in the city center, and The King Manor was in the wealthy district. No way he was just passing by.

The window rolled down, and Kelvin answered indifferently, "Just passing by." She knew he was lying.

He knew it was a clumsy lie.

But since Kelvin said that, Penelope didn't call him out.

"Oh," she raised an eyebrow, "I thought you cto see me." Kelvin pursed his lips, "I didn't." "I've gone back to work at 'Adoring Cupid,' thanks." "You're welcome," Kelvin replied. "That was always your place." Penelope felt their interaction was awkward.

But being too close would feel weird too.

The office make-out session seemed like it never happened.

He didn't mention it, and she pretended it didn't either.

Penelope wondered what her relationship with Kelvin really was.

They didn't seem like a married couple or lovers. The only link was their daughter, Lucy.

"Did you go to the hospital?" Penelope asked. "Is Lucy doing well?" "Other than still thinking Madison is her mom, she's fine. She'll be discharged soon." "Discharged? Is she recovering that well?" "Yeah, the doctor said so." Penelope was stunned. "After she's discharged, Lucy..." She had thought once Lucy's leukemia was cured, she could take her away from LA and start a peaceful life again.

Kelvin could visit occasionally.

If Lucy wanted to stay with the Davis family, she could visit them in LA sometimes.

But plans changed; neither she nor Kelvin got Lucy.

Instead, Madison did! "I'll arrange for her to go to school and live a normal life," Kelvin said. "As for her only recognizing Madison, Penelope, it won't be long before Lucy wakes up." He was sure of it.

Kelvin's confident and steady demeanor was highly persuasive.

He said to leave it to him, so she didn't need to worry.

"Can I help with anything? Or do you needto do something?" Penelope asked.

"Kelvin, you don't have to carry everything alone." She could share the burden.

Because Lucy was their daughter.

Kelvin answered indifferently, "No need. Just take good care of yourself." She frowned, "I take very good care of myself!" "Really?" Kelvin looked her up and down, finally resting his eyes on her chest.

"What are you doing?"

Penelope felt uncomfortable, took two steps back, covered her chest, е then awkwardly put her hand down.

"Still a bit thin," Kelvin commented, "But you've filled out in the right places." "Kelvin!"

"Maybe it's because you're a mom now," he said. "Naturalty you'@be more voluptuous." Penelope bit her lip, wishing she could shut him up! "What?" Seeing her blush, Kelvin teased more. "Did I say something wrong?" "No! You're right, just don't say it again!" Penelope knew her chest had indeed becfuller after giving birth.

But she felt it was a burden! She had to dress more conservatively and couldn't wear tight clothes, as they would show her figure.

She was exhausted, gained nothing good, and it benefited men instead! Kelvin chuckled, his laugh deep and magnetic. "Penelope, I'm serious. Taking good care of yourself is the biggest help you can give me."
