Chapter 23: If I Can’t See You, I’ll Kneel and leave

Penelope's eyes started to well up with tears.

"Are you that desperate for money?" Kelvin stared at her. "Desperate enough to pick up trash and sacrifice your dignity?"

"Yes! I need money! What is dignity? What is pride? I lost all of that the moment you threw me into the psychiatric hospital! Just by staying alive, I have to put in much more effort than others!"

"You are Mr. Davis, high and mighty, worth billions. Of course, you would never do something like this. But I'm just an ordinary person. If you tell me to roll, I'll roll. If you tell me to walk to work, I'll earn some bus fare. Is that not allowed?"

"I know you would eventually find out, but compared to your anger, I'm more afraid of the days without money!"

Penelope quickly wiped away a tear and squatted down to pick up the scattered bottles.

"Stop picking them up!" She didn't listen.

"Penelope, I'm telling you to stop!" Kelvin grabbed her and lifted her up.

"Let go of me!"

Kelvin kicked away the bottles blocking their path and threw Penelope into the car.

Ryan looked panicked: "Mr. Davis, Mrs. Davis..."

"Get out!" Kelvin said in a threatening voice.

"Yes, sir." Ryan hurried out.

"Pick up all her broken bottles!"

Ryan: "... Yes, Mr. Davis."

of the night was bad enough, but now he had to pick up trash.

Kelvin sat in the driver's seat, personally driving, and suddenly stepped on the gas pedal.

Penelope's head almost hit the windshield.

She quickly tastened her seatbelt. With this speed, she wouldn't be surprised if her life was in danger. She couldn't die.

Before, she couldn't because she had her parents. Now, she had to live even more, because she had a child!

"Slow down... Ah!" Penelope didn't dare to open her eyes. "Kelvin, something bad is going to happen!"

Kelvin remained silent, gripping the steering wheel tightly, overtaking cars continuously, forcefully giving the sedan the sensation of a race car.
