---- her peel oranges as her punishment, he was sure that she'd rush into his arms happily once he comforted her for a little longer. Surely she'd resume her role as his adorable wife. Life would go on as normal for them. As soon as Jacob left, Penelope pulled out the IV drip and went through the discharge process. She dragged her suitcase to the lobby, only to bump into Rebecca. Rebecca seemed pretty smug. "Oh? Are you finally going to leave?
It's a shame that you can't get a single cent out of the divorce despite having spent eight years sleeping with Jacob. Seriously , I feel sorry for you." "Did you really think you've won?" Penelope sneered. "We'll see about that!" When Rebecca recalled the way Jacob stayed by Penelope's side faithfully over the past two days, she clenched her fists angrily. "You're planning to leave, huh? In your dreams!
Men, take her into the car and feed her orange juice!" Shocked , Penelope grabbed her suitcase and began running toward the exit. At the same time, she unlocked her phone and began calling Jacob. The dial tone rang for a long time before Jacob finally picked up the call. "What's wrong, Penny?" "Jacob, come over to the hospital right now! ---- Someone's-" Before Penelope could finish speaking, Jacob interjected , "An important client is calling me right now. I'm going to have to hang up on you.

I'll be back soon." "Oh Penelope, Jacob's picking up my phone call!" Rebecca waved her phone at Penelope. She was clearly pleased. She muted her phone before issuing her orders. " Jacob will be coming to the hospital soon. Hurry up and kill her before tossing her body into the sea! Feed her to the fishes!" Penelope's expression faltered slightly. She withstood the pain as she began fighting the bodyguards in hopes of breaking free.
Unfortunately , she soon ran out of stamina and was forcefully whisked into the car. She was then force - fed a bottle of potent orange juice, making her unable to breathe at all. Penelope could only glare helplessly at Rebecca , who was cackling at her from outside the car. She gritted out, "Just... just you wait, Rebecca... I... 1 won't let you off the hook!" "You're just an abandoned hag, yet you still think you can take me on?" Rebecca cackled even more with a hand placed over her belly.
---- "Even if Jacob finds out about what happened today, he won't have the heart to get mad at me. That's because he doesn't love you at all. Got it? Maybe he's even secretly pleased to find out that I've taken care of his troubles for him!" Penelope breathed with great difficulty. She could only close her eyes in despair. Suddenly, she felt something ramming into the side of her car, causing the car to stop. Elation washed over her the moment she saw the man running toward the car. "Mr.
Chopin, save me!" Penelope rasped out. The car window cracked loudly the next moment. Trevor took down the bodyguards with a flying kick before picking Penelope up and taking her back to his car. He had a serious look on his face. "Ms. Hall, you're suffering from a severe allergic reaction right now. You need to undergo emergency treatment right away. I'll arrange for you to leave in Mr. Thornton's private jet." Penelope could only nod weakly.
"I need you to help deliver Jacob's birthday gift for me next Friday." Awhile later, Penelope was whisked into Peter's private jet. Her phone had been vibrating non-stop. Apparently , Jacob had been flooding her phone with missed calls and unread texts. ---- But soon, Trevor texted her the PIN number of her bank card. The jet soon took off and ascended into the skies. Penelope removed the SIM card from her phone before turning to look at the azure sky outside the window.
This time, there was a bright sparkle in her eyes, "T can finally start my life anew." All of her pain and suffering was over. She could finally pick up the shards of her dream and began painting a vibrant new chapter of her life.
