From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 485 Slapped Kelvin "Not even a touch?" Kelvin asked, "Do you hatethat much?" Penelope shot back, "Gross!" "Can't sleep 'cause of the bed, or did Lucy's nightmares keep you up again?" Kelvin asked, "You're gonna be here for a while. If you can't sleep, I'll be worried." He was genuinely worried.

But he knew Penelope wouldn't buy it and would just think he was being sarcastic.

So, Kelvin's tone was more laid-back.

Penelope let out a cold laugh, "Save your concern for Madison. Thanks, but I don't need it!" Kelvin kept leaning lazily against the door frame, "Just scasual chitchat. You always have this attitude, Penelope. No guy would like that." "None of your business" Penelope snapped.

"Just a friendly reminder," Kelvin said.

"Not needed!" Penelope turned to leave but then remembered something and looked back at him, "By the way, Mr. Davis, close your bedroom door at night. Don't disturb others' rest! It's so noisy!" Kelvin raised an eyebrow, "Really?" "Yes!" Penelope said.

"I'll keep that in mind tonight," Kelvin replied, "I'll make sure to close the door properly and not disturb you." Penelope gritted her teeth, "Thanks!" "You're welcome," he smiled, "Women should be gentle and sweet to be likable. Penelope, you never had Madison's..." "Enough, shut up; I don't want to hear it!" Penelope didn't want to stay another second; she just wanted to get as far away from Kelvin as possible! But as soon as she took two steps, she felt a tight grip around her waist. Kelvin had reached out and firmly encircled her, spinning her around and pinning her against the wall.

"Kelvin!" Penelope felt the strength and warmth of his arm, and it made her uncomfortable.

Familiar, strong.

But his hands had held Madison! She struggled desperately, "Let go of me! What are you doing..." Kelvin trapped her between the wall and his chest, "You always want to run away, Penelope. But I want you closer." "You're crazy!" Penelope said.

He lowered his head, his forehead touching hers, and said in a deep voice, "Yeah, Penelope, just think ofas sick, terminally ill, gravely ill." Penelope's struggles paused.

She suddenly thought of something.

Kelvin had a fever all night that one time, only recovering by dawn, and almost needed to go to the hospital. After that, she clearly felt that something was off with Kelvin.

By now, it wasn't just "off," it was "ridiculous," "strange," "like he had turned into a different person"! Could Kelvin really be sick? Was he, like Lucy, controlled by Madison, which made him so gentle and caring towards her? Penelope remembered discussing this with Monica.

"Kelvin, you..." Penelope quieted down, looking up at his pupils, "Are you..." She wanted to ask if he was also bewitched by Madison.

But before she could get a word out, Kelvin smirked and said, "What's wrong with me? Don't you recognize me? Penelope, I've always been like this, and I haven't changed. It's you who exhausts me. Why should I waste my tand energy on a woman like you?" If you're loving the book, nel5sis where the adventure continues. Join us for the complete experience all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you! The light in Penelope's eyes dimmed instantly.

Yeah, she was overthinking it. Why was she still making excuses for Kelvin's change? He had fallen out of love! He wasn't under any spell; he just liked Madison's obedience, her putting him first, and making him feel superior and satisfied! He was just tired of her! Penelope gritted her teeth, "Then let go of me! Let go!" Seeing the change in her eyes, Kelvin felt a pang in his heart.

He wanted her to know that he wasn't the person she saw now.

He was still himself, unchanged.

He was forced into this. He had no choice.

But when Kelvin saw that she seemed to have guessed it, he panicked and said hurtful things to wound her! No, Penelope couldn't know.

The show had started, and he couldn't let all this hard work go to waste; he couldn't afford any mistakes now.

Kelvin had to be cold! No room for softness! "No," he deliberately acted like a jerk, "Penelope, we were once married. Don't you want to reminisce about our past? Our happiness?" Penelope bit her lip so hard she could almost taste blood.

She never thought such words could cout of Kelvin's mouth!

"This is the main bedroom door; Madison is sleeping inside," Penelope reminded him, "Aren't you afraid she'll hear? Aren't you worried she'll get upset with you?" Kelvin laughed, "Penelope, do you think every woman as petty as you? Even if Madison hears, she won't do anything; she'll just pretend nothing happened!" "So that's how it is. Madison is really tolerant, so submissive!" Penelope said.

"If she wants to be Mrs. Davis, she has to have that awareness," Kelvin said, "Unlike you, always nitpicking!" Penelope looked at him, wanting to slap him.

"Oh, by the way, don't worry that Madison will hear anything and make it hard for you," Kelvin kindly reminded her, "She's still asleep and will probably rest well today. She won't hear anything, and she is sleeping very soundly." As soon as he finished speaking, there was a crisp sound. Penelope had raised her hand and slapped Kelvin across the face! Quick, hard, and loud! Kelvin's face turned to one side, taking the full force of the slap.

Penelope's chest heaved with anger; still not satisfied, she raised her hand to slap him again! She hated him! How could Kelvin be so despicable? So hateful! Hit him! He deserved it! "Penelope," Kelvin grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms, "You're the first woman to hit me!" "I hit you, so what? Kelvin, you're disgusting!" Penelope tried to pull her wrist back, wanting to slap him again! But Kelvin wouldn't give her the chance.

His eyes were dark, "Considering you're my wife and Lucy's mother, I won't hold it against you, but there won't be a next time!"
