Chapter 519 Do You Love Brandon? "I..." Penelope was at a loss for words.
"What happened to all that sass you had earlier? Where are your so-called innocence and integrity now?" Kelvin was fuming. "Brandon already confessed!" His wife, Penelope, was being eyed by one guy after another.
He was so jealous it was driving him nuts! Brandon's love for Penelope was so real and intense that he was ready to dump Isabella, end their marriage, and face both the Mitchell and Walker families alone! "Yeah," Penelope gritted her teeth, "he did say he loved me. But there was nothing between us, not even a flirty word! I always saw him as a friend! The most trusted and reliable friend!" Kelvin suddenly stood up. "Penelope, I'm telling you, there's no such thing as pure friendship between a guy and a girl! None!" "But Brandon and I have been friends for four years!" Penelope shot back. "In the four years I was away from you, I never met him in person; we only talked on the phone!" From the tshe met Brandon until now, there had been no intimate gestures between them.
Brandon was a perfect gentleman, with impeccable manners and a refined demeanor.
Penelope was a married woman and knew her boundaries.
They always interacted harmoniously and easily as friends.
Brandon had a fiancée, and she had a husband. No one would cross that moral line.
"But he said he loves you, he loves you!" Kelvin was almost mad with jealousy. "Penelope, you're really impressive, you know? You made Brandon give up Isabella for you!" "I only found out today, at the stas you, that he loves me," Penelope said.

Brandon had cto see him before.
But after thinking about it, he swallowed his words.
"What do you mean 'I'?" Penelope laughed, full of sarcasm. "Am I, Penelope, that bad? Ugly, lazy, old, and useless? It's normal for other men to likein this world. Kelvin, you can't handle this? You can be affectionate with Madison, but Brandon can't like me? You and Madison did everything; you betrayed this marriage. Brandon only expressed his forfeelings verbally, without any substantial actions! Kelvin, what makes you think only you can cheat in this marriage? Are you so domineering that you want to control everyone's feelings?" Ryan was caught in the middle, not knowing what to do.
Could he leave first? Could heback after they finished arguing? Now, he was left here, witnessing this epic argument.
Ryan was very nervous.
"Penelope," Kelvin's lips pressed into a straight line, "I just want to ask you one question." "Ask!" Penelope said.
"Do you love Brandon?" Kelvin asked.
This was the answer Kelvin wanted the most.
Brandon loving her was Brandon's business.
If she also loved Brandon, then it would be their business.
Kelvin wasn't afraid of Brandon falling for her; he was afraid Penelope would fall for him too.

If that was the case, then what would he be? Penelope was stunned. "Do I love Brandon?" "Yes," Kelvin asked, "once he clears things up with Isabella, resolves all emotional entanglements, and becomes single again, he will pursue you. Penelope, at that time, will you accept him?" Penelope didn't answer right away; instead, she flashed a sly smile.
That smile left Kelvin scratching his head.
"Before I answer your question, Kelvin, I got one for you." She locked eyes with him. "I wish you and Madison all the happiness in the world. You promised her right in front ofthat you'd always be together. So, when are we getting a divorce?" Penelope asked.
"You want a divorce now?" Kelvin shot back.
"Yep, only after the divorce will I be a free woman, able to openly accept Brandon's pursuit," Penelope said. Kelvin's eyes narrowed.
She wanted a divorce to be single and be with Brandon.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWas that what she meant? She didn't answer directly, but her words were as good as an answer! "So you do love Brandon?" Kelvin's voice had a slight tremor. "As long as you're both single and he goes after you, you'll say yes?" Actually, Penelope wouldn't accept Brandon.
Her heart had been shattered by Kelvin, leaving her incapable of loving anyone else.

Living alone with her two kids was her biggest wish.
But Penelope wasn't about to spill the truth to Kelvin.
He was so controlling, making her watch him and Madison be all lovey-dovey every day and letting her get bullied by Madison Couldn't she make him squirm a bit, too? "Why wouldn't I accept?" Penelope raised an eyebrow, looking a bit smug. "That's Brandon. Kelvin, he might not beat you in sareas, but he's one of the top-quality guys in all of LA." "Penelope!" Kelvin's eyes turned dark and scary!
"Can't handle the truth?" Penelope laughed. "I'm a divorced woman with two kids, yet Brandon's chasing me. Do you think I can resist? Brandon is gentle, elegant, and a totalgentleman Plus, he's rich; handsome, and kind. He broke up with his long-tfiancée for me. Do you think I wouldn't be moved? And I'm sure being with Brandon would be way happier than being with you. He knows how to take care of people, cherish them, and respectin every way. Why wouldn't I choose him?" Penelope said. Three rhetorical questions in a row made Kelvin's face as dark as a storm cloud. Finally, Penelope said very casually, "Mr. Davis, if there's nothing else, I'll get back to work. I apologize for the scene in the lobby today; it was my fault and brought sbad vibes to the company." She looked at Ryan. "If you need to dock my pay or hitwith other penalties, Ryan, just follow the company rules." After that, Penelope walked towards the door.
In the big CEO's office, only her footsteps echoed.
"Oh, by the way," at the door, Penelope turned around, remembering something, "Thanks, Mr. Davis, for having my back today. I was really touched. But even if you hadn't stepped in, with all those security guards around, I'm not a sitting duck; Isabella couldn't have hurt me." This was her way of saying Kelvin's actions were unnecessary.
Ryan shrank back.
Penelope just had to get in one last jab before leaving, which would definitely make Kelvin even angrier!
