Chapter 26: Attending the Charity Auction

Seeing that Penelope had actually left, Monica couldn't bring herself to go after her. She could only go find Timothy Foster.

"Ah?" Timothy Foster answered, "You want to know who Penelope is?"

"Yes!" Timothy didn't know how to answer.

"Well... cough, shh, it's a secret. I'll tell you."

Monica decided not to pursue the matter any further.

Full of impatience, Monica said, "I know, I know, just tell me!"

"She is our boss," Timothy Foster said, "the wife of the head honcho."

Monica's jaw dropped in astonishment.

What?!

Penelope married Kelvin?

Isn't this a rags-to-riches story, marrying into a wealthy family? Why does Penelope say she's miserable and unhappy?

Timothy Foster cautioned, "Monica, I'm only sharing this gossip with you because of your face, so keep it confidential."

"Do they have a good relationship?" Monica tried to gage the situation.

"Well... I'm not entirely sure. But the way they interact is confusing, filled with secrets."

Monica pressed on, "What do you mean by confusing?"

"If you stay in the company a few more days, you'll see something's not right."

"Hey, Mr. Foster," Monica looked at him disdainfully, "as Mr. Davis's best buddy, how can you not find out about this gossip? You call yourself The the Davis's little informant, huh!"

Timothy Foster shrugged, "I know everything about Kelvin, but he never mentioned a word about this marriage."

Penelope returned to her desk, feeling a sense of unease inside.

Monica Anhao was her closest friend, someone she could confide in, and she wanted

to share her experiences from the past few, vears.

But it would be meaningless and only make Monica feel the same way.

"Ding-" A message came to her phone.

Opening it, she saw it was from Kelvin: "GetRoll into my office."

Penelope reluctantly got up.
