Chapter 17: Doctor, Did You Make a Mistake?

Penelope found it hard to believe his serious answer. "Is it true?"

Kelvin retorted, "Do you think I would lie?"

That made sense.

She didn't deserve for him to lie.

Penelope got up anxiously. She had sleepwalked into Kelvin's bed, and he hadn't even noticed?

"What are you dilly-dallying for? Hurry up and leave." Kelvin scolded, interrupting her thoughts.

Penelope nodded and took a few steps, but felt dizzy and lightheaded.

Her throat was dry and sore.

She must have caught a cold from getting wet last night.

But Penelope couldn't worry about that now. She still had to go to the prison.

She needed to ask Kelvin for a day of leave, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to find her and she'd have to deal with his temper.

The question was... what reason should she give?

Just as Penelope was racking her brain for ideas, Kelvin said, "Go to the hospital and see a doctor so you don't infect me!"

She happily replied, "Okay!"

For the first time, Penelope felt that this cold came at just the right time.

After leaving The King Manor, she first went to the prison.

Mr. Cooper had regained some consciousness, but his injuries were serious. He couldn't move while lying in bed and needed to have his bandages changed daily. "Penelope, it's this family that's been dragging you down..." Mr. Cooper said. "If we sever our father-daughter relationship, will Kelvin spare you?"

"Dad, you will always be my dad."
