Chapter 510 Splashing Water on Penelope's Face! "I'll go grab sfruit," Penelope said, getting up and heading out.
Just as she opened the door, Kelvin was about to walk in.
Totally caught off guard, she smacked right into Kelvin's chest.
Kelvin caught her, smirking, "Penelope, you that eager to jump into my arms?" Feeling his skin and catching a whiff of his scent, Penelope felt like she got zapped and quickly pulled away.
"Who's jumping into your arms? Why didn't you knock?" Penelope snapped.
Kelvin shrugged. "My house. Do I need to knock?" "But this isn't your room," Penelope shot back.
Kelvin's lips twitched, "It's my daughter's room." "Daddy!" Lucy's little voice piped up, "Look, I'm making a gift for you." His stern face softened instantly, "Coming, sweetie." Penelope kept walking out.
"Madison's back," Kelvin called over his shoulder, "Don't piss her off." Basically, he was warning her to steer clear of Madison.
If things got heated, he wouldn't be able to protect her.
Now was a crucial moment to trick Madison into lifting the spell on Lucy. He must avoid any unnecessary complications.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKelvin couldn't afford to tick off Madison or let her suspect anything! "If she leavesalone, I'll be thrilled!" Penelope muttered.
Penelope headed downstairs and sure enough, there was Madison lounging on the sofa, surrounded by servants pampering her.
They were massaging her, changing her shoes, and serving her tea and fruit.
Penelope tried to sneak to the kitchen behind the stairs.
"Hold up," Madison's sharp eyes zeroed in on her, "Penelope, why you sneaking around „,kera2scarecrylylar!?" Penelope pretended not to hear.
"I got something to say to you," Madison chuckled, "It's about Lucy." Seeing Penelope still ignoring her, Madison added, "I'll give her back to you, let you take her away from the King Manor and leave LA. How's that sound?" Penelope finally stopped and turned to look at her from a distance, "You that bored you're messing with me?" "I'm dead serious. Unless you don't want your daughter..." Madison taunted.
"I want her!" Penelope cut in, "Make Lucy wake up!" "Alright." Madison beckoned with her finger, "Cover, and I'll tell you the details." Since she had promised Kelvin to lift the spell, and Isabella had agreed to help, she might as well use this chance to humiliate Penelope! Penelope was tough, not easy to push around usually.
But now, with Lucy as leverage, Penelope would definitely play along! Standing in front of Madison, Penelope glared at her, "Can you really give Lucy back to me? Can you wake her up?" "Absolutely." Madison leaned back on the sofa, all casual, "I keep my promises; I don't have tto mess with you." She waved her hand and looked at the servants, "Step aside and make room for our new servant." The servants didn't say a word, but they knew Penelope was the real Mrs. Davis.
The rightful mistress of the King Manor.
Looked like Madison was about to teach Penelope a lesson.
The servants, not wanting to get on Madison's bad side, obediently stepped aside.
Penelope knew exactly what Madison was up to.
Before Madison could even open her mouth, Penelope stepped up. "What do you wantto do? Just spit it out, no games." "Not bad. Penelope, I like your attitude," Madison said with a smirk.
"What do you wantto do?" Penelope repeated.
"Why the rush?" Madison drawled, "The AC isn't doing much; it's still kinda warm in here." 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! "I'll lower the temp," Penelope offered.
Madison shot her a look, "Don't make it too cold. Got it?" Penelope closed her eyes for a second, then reopened them with a forced smile, "Got it." Endure.
She had to endure.
For Lucy, she had to suck it up one last time! Once she got through this, it would be over! One day, Madison would be at her mercy! Penelope grabbed a fan and stood beside Madison, gently fanning her.
"Haven't you eaten?" Madison sneered. "You're weak as a kitten." Penelope fanned harder.
"Are you trying to freeze me?" Madison snapped again, "Do you even know what 'moderate' means?" "I know." Penelope adjusted her fanning, and Madison finally seemed somewhat satisfied, "Not bad, not completely useless." Madison didn't tell her to stop, so Penelope kept fanning, her hand going numb and her arm aching. Madison was making things hard on purpose.
She knew it.
But what choice did she have? "Alright," Madison finally said, like she was doing Penelope a favor, "Go geta glass of water." Penelope asked, "Warm or cold?" Madison didn't expect that; Penelope was sharper than she thought.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe snorted, "Warm."

Penelope went to get a glass of warm water, just the the righttemperature, and handed it to Madison with both hands. Out of nowhere, Madison took a sip and spat it out: "I said warm water. This is boiling! Are you trying to burn me? Can't you do anything right?" With that, she splashed the water all over Penelope's face! No one saw that coming.
The servants were frozen, just staring.
Penelope didn't see it coming either! The water soaked her hair, ran down her cheeks, and dripped from her chin.
Her clothes were drenched.
She looked a mess.
She suddenly raised her head, eyes locked on Madison.
"Staring at me?" Madison taunted, "You dare to stare at me? I'm gonna dig out your eyeballs" Penelope wanted to rush over, grab Madison's hair, and slap her silly! But she couldn't.
She just looked away, lowered her head, and wiped the water off her face, "I'll get another glass." "That's it?" Madison mocked.
"Sorry," Penelope said, "I messed up." Madison sneered, "You can't even handle something so simple. What's the point of you? Or are your hands only good for drawing and designing jewelry, not for real work?"
"I'm capable of real work." Penelope stood up and went to get more water. Madison kept her eyes on her, clearly planning to make things even harder. And this was just the beginning! Madison had to humiliate Penelope thoroughly to feel satisfied and comfortable! After all, the spell on Lucy was going to be lifted, and this was her last chance to bully Penelope!
