Chapter 12: Three Strikes

Even Audrey is better than Fiona!

Is he blind?

Or has he been enchanted, somehow??

"Penelope, you shallall apologize to me!" Fiona said, "And imitate the sound of a dog barking dog three times!"

With a determined tone, Penelope repliedshe, said, "It's impossible."

She could tolerate the apology, but imitating a dog's bark was absolutely out of the question.

Fiona immediately shook Kelvin's arm complaining, "Look, look! She doesn't want to..."

"Penelope, you have one more chance to answer," he said, looking down at her with a piercing gaze, "Is it easier to imitate a dog's bark or to endure three strikes?"

"She is the person I have gone to great lengths to find, and she is the future Mrs. Davis of my life and my choice, . Do you understand?" he replied coldly, "How dare you compare yourself to her?"

Penelope opened her eyes only to find and only saw Kelvin walking away.

"I won't dirty my hands by beating you," he dropped the whip and said, "Jeff, take over for me!"

"Yes, Mr. Davis." Was Jeff's obedient answer.
