Chapter 100 How Come Your Child Gets to Live?

Penelope nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I understand."

She was overwhelmed with relief.

The baby was still with her.

Joyfully, she raised her hand to wipe away her tears.

Kelvin's hand suddenly gripped her chin, "Penelope, why does this child live!?"

The same fall, the same tumbling down the stairs that resulted in Fiona losing her child.

And Penelope's child was fine?

It wasn't fair!

Penelope had no choice but to look up at him, "Is Fiona's... did it not survive?"

"No!"

"I get you're upset," she said. "You were going to be a dad for the first time. I'm sure you were imagining what it would feel like to have that child." She sighed, "But honestly, I didn't cause this. I didn't do anything."

Kelvin's jaw clenched, veins throbbing at his temple as he spoke through gritted teeth, "It was your fall, dragging Fiona down the stairs with you. I saw it plainly! You intended

to take her down with you, you've harbored ill will towards her for ages!"

Penelope shook her head, her voice soft but resolute, "I didn't."

When it wasn't her fault, there was no way she'd take the blame.

"Penelope, your family, the Coopers, are responsible for what happened, and you need

to face the consequences," Kelvin declared, locking eyes with her, "A debt that can never be repaid."

Her gaze met his with a sorrowful intensity.

In truth, the Coopers owed him nothing.

"I swear." Penelope stated. "if I. Penelope. harbored even the slightest ill intent towards Fiona's unborn child, I would never forgive myself.!"

Her words tumbled out, determination in her unwavering eyes.
