Chapter 15: Your Father Should have died Long Ago

Penelope ran out of the company and flagged down a taxi.

She took out all the money she had on her and handed it to the driver:

"This is all I have, please take me to LA Prison..."

The driver, seeing her desperation, agreed.

When Penelope arrived, Mr. Cooper was lying on a stretcher.

His arms and legs were covered in burn marks.

He half-opened his eyes and kept crying out in pain.

"Dad!" Penelope rushed over.

"Dad, look at me, I'm Penelope... What happened? Why did my dad get burned so badly?"

The prison guard answered, "He did it himself, it's not our problem."

"What about the surveillance? I want to see the whole incident!" Penelope pushed for

answers.

"You can't just watch the surveillance here." The Guard said.

Penelope gritted her teeth, "You... you are going too far!"

"Penelope, it hurts, it hurts..." Mr. Cooper unconsciously pleaded. "Help, scratch it for Dad..."

He tried to scratch the burn blisters, but Penelope grabbed his hand. "Dad, endure it for now, I will take you to the hospital."

"No, he's a prisoner, he needs approval to leave." The guard shouted at Penelope.

"So, should I just watch my dad die?" Penelope asked sarcastically.

The prison guard replied, "Actually, you only have yourselves to blame. Ever since your dad came in, he's been through a lot."

A name flashed through Penelope's mind--

Kelvin!

It was him!

Hasn't he tormented her enough?! He even targeted Mr. Cooper, who was serving his sentence!

"I want to see Kelvin, Kelvin; I'm going to find him now..." Penelope wiped away a tear and made a move to get up.

Just as she stood up, Fiona walked in, looking smug.

She sneered, "Penelope, don't waste your energy. Kelvin dislikes you so much, he only wants to see you suffer!"
