Chapter 469 Stop Bothering My Dad Four years back, Kelvin was the one who put her through hell, but she still remembered the good times with him.
He was the Kelvin who made LA shake in its boots! Right then, Lucy's clear, kiddish voice piped up. "Hold up a sec!" Kelvin's steps cto a screeching halt.
"What's up?" Madison asked, puzzled, "Lucy, what are you doing?" Kelvin's brow furrowed a bit.
"Daddy, putdown first," Lucy said, kicking her little legs.
"Alright," Kelvin replied.
As soon as her feet hit the ground, Lucy spun around and walked back.
No one had a clue what she was up to.
Madison tried to pull Lucy back, but Kelvin stopped her. "Let her be." Lucy seemed super determined, striding with purpose.
Around the corner, Penelope leaned against the wall, her heart racing.
Lucy's footsteps got closer and closer.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDid Lucy spot her? Was she coming to find her? Why? To call her out for being a bad person? Should she have bailed? Hid? Just as Penelope hesitated, Lucy gently tugged her clothes.
Penelope shut her eyes.
How did Lucy even find her? She had no choice but to face it! Penelope stepped out from the corner.
Down the hall, Madison grumbled, "It's Penelope? What's she doing here? She's like a bad penny!" Kelvin didn't respond, his gaze cold.
"I'll go get Lucy back," Madison said, "to avoid any ." She had barely taken two steps when Kelvin stopped her again, "This floor's crawling with bodyguards; Lucy's fine. Plus, Penelope is Lucy's real mom." "Mr. Davis, what if Penelope has a 'if I can't have it, I'll wreck it' mindset?" Madison said.
"Wreck it? How?" Kelvin shot back, "Is she gonna kill her own daughter?" "Uh..." Madison was stumped by his comeback.
Kelvin softened his tone, "Let's just watch for now, don't rush." As he spoke, he wrapped his arm around Madison's waist, pulling her close.
It looked like a hug, but really, he was keeping her from moving! Madison naturally enjoyed it, immediately leaning against his chest, shooting a disdainful look at Penelope.
Whatever, Penelope can't do squat anyway! Penelope looked at Lucy, trying hard to smile, "Lucy, you cto find me?" For the first time, using a stranger's tone to speak to Lucy, Penelope's heart was breaking.
But she had no other choice.
"Yeah," Lucy stood straight, looking at her a bit shyly, "I saw you hiding here, so I wanted to cover and say a few words to you." Lucy's eyes were clear and pure, without any dislike or impatience.

Lucy looked up at her, "You're so pretty and young. There must be lots of boys who like you. Please don't bother my daddy anymore, okay?" Penelope murmured, "You think I'm bothering your daddy?" "Yeah, but lately, I haven't seen you with daddy. My daddy loves my mommy. You don't have a chance, and please don't mess up my family, okay?" Lucy said.
Penelope's mouth slightly opened, not knowing how to respond.
She never thought that one day, she would be accused of bothering Kelvin.
And the person accusing her was Lucy.
Clearly, it was Kelvin who had been bugging her all along! Seeing Penelope stay quiet, Lucy kept going, her logic sharp and sincere. "My daddy and mommy are married; they can't like anyone else anymore; they gotta stick together for life. You should find a guy who's not married and live a good life with him. I know, a woman who messes up a family and marriage is called a homewrecker. Everyone hates a homewrecker. You don't want everyone to hate you and think you're a bad person, right? My daddy and mommy haven't seen each other for four years. They've been through a lot, and now they finally reunite. I don't want them to be apart again. I want to live with both mommy and daddy, to be a good kid with a normal family. Can you make that happen for me?" Penelope's heart was a mess of emotions.
She slowly raised her hand, wanting to touch Lucy's head, but Lucy stepped back, scared.
See, Lucy was afraid of her and didn't like her.
The reason Lucy had the guts to cto her was that she genuinely hoped she would stay far away, wanting to do something for Kelvin and Madison.
How sweet.
Penelope thought that Lucy was still so pure and kind.
But Lucy saw her as the "homewrecker." Such a term, Penelope never thought, would one day be slapped on her.

Penelope knew, this wasn't Lucy's intention, Lucy was just confused.

"Lucy," Penelope squatted down, looking her in the eye, "do you think your daddy loves your mommy?" Lucy nodded, "Yeah." "Does your mommy love daddy?" Penelope asked.
"Yeah," Lucy nodded again, "they love each other; that's why I cinto this world." Penelope's nose tingled.
This was what she had once told Lucy.
Because Kelvin had never shown up in the small town for four years.
The role of daddy had always been empty.
The two kids asked her if it was because Daddy didn't love Mommy or because Mommy didn't love Daddy that they chose to split.
At that time, Penelope thought for a long, long time, then answered. "Daddy loved Mommy, and Mommy loved Daddy. We loved each other deeply, that's why we had you and brought you into this world. The reason daddy and mommy aren't together is that we aren't right for each other." Unexpectedly, Lucy had always remembered this sentence.
"Yeah," Penelope said, "your daddy and mommy love each other. How could I break them up? As long as they love each other enough, nothing and no one can split them." Lucy blinked, "But every tyou show up, Mommy gets unhappy. I don't want Mommy to be unhappy." "Lucy, you are a good kid," Penelope said.
"Then you should be an awesadult, okay?" Penelope responded, "Okay." "If you promise, you gotta keep it," Lucy looked at her, "your word has to be kept." "Yeah, I will keep my word," Penelope said.
Having gotten her promise, Lucy finally squeezed out a smile, "You will also find someone who loves you a lot, and you love him too. Then you will get married and have babies. I wish you well." Saying this, she waved her hand, "Bye-bye."
