Chapter 42: Your Seduction Tactics Are Too Low

Penelope was almost biting her lower lip until it bled. "Understood."

"Now leave." She turned around and walked out.

Kelvin always had a way of igniting a glimmer of hope within her, only to plunge her deeper into a despairing hell.

She had deceived her mother, painting a beautiful lie that she was doing well, with Nathan's company and a high-paying job. Because her mother had just awakened and hadn't fully recovered, knowing her true situation would only bring inconsolable sadness.

Kelvin held too many leverage points and weak spots against her.

Back at her workstation, Penelope stared at the design drafts, her mind somewhat blank. She effortlessly designed various jewelry styles for "Adoring Cupid," from necklaces to rings to bracelets, with bursts of inspiration and ease. Except for Fiona's wedding ring.

"What's wrong with you?" Monica tapped her shoulder. "No inspiration?" After glancing at her sketches, Monica frowned deeply. "What is this? It's tacky and vulgar, without any elegance or refinement. Penelope, this doesn't seem like your style!"

"It's Fiona's," Penelope replied. "She likes this kind of vulgar style."

"No wonder..." Monica rolled her eyes exasperatedly. "Is Kelvin blind or something? Women are crazy about him, and he likes someone like Fiona? Maybe that's fate."

Just as Timothy returned from seeing a client, Monica quickly stopped him. "Mr. Foster, do you know the most famous eye hospital in LA?"

"What's wrong? Are your eyes acting up?"

"You're the one with eye problems! I want you to recommend it to Kelvin!"

Timothy shrugged. "What does his blindness have to do with me? Oh, Penelope, I showed one of your design drafts to a foreign client, and he praised it endlessly. Keep up the good work."

Penelope nodded. "Okay, Mr. Foster."
