Chapter143 I Want You to Divorce Her, Now!

He said, "Good thing you didn't lose."

Kelvin rolled up her sleeve, examining closely to ensure there were no injuries on her. If Penelope had lost, Kelvin would have been unable to do anything about Fiona. Throughout the journey, he had been worried she wouldn't be able to defend herself. Fortunately, she didn't lose to Fiona.

Penelope paused, not quite catching his drift.

She withdrew her hand, avoiding his touch, "I can't fight today, but next time I see Fiona, I won't let her off!"

"Leave Fiona to me," he said.

Penelope scoffed, "Kelvin, you keep saying you love me. Then why do you seem to take her side over mine?"

It seemed like he was pushing Fiona away, but in truth, he was protecting her!

"You Jealous?" Kelvin raised an eyebrow and asked.

Penelope was taken aback again.

Was she... jealous?

Even though Kelvin professed his affection for her, he still treated Fiona well in their interactions.

To be honest, it really irked Penelope. Why can men say one thing and do another? Is love not about favoritism but exclusivity?

"I'm not," Penelope denied, "You can continue to favor Fiona. It has nothing to do with me!"

She turned to leave, but Kelvin reached out, pulling her into his embrace, "I need to be responsible for Fiona. I owe it to her. I hope you can understand that."

Penelope nearly laughed angrily, "Why should I understand you? If my mother hadn't survived the surgery, Fiona and I would have been enemies for life! It's either her or me, not both!"

She didn't know what history Kelvin and Fiona shared, nor did she care.

After several long hours of waiting, finally, the lights in the operating room went out. Penelope approached immediately, "Doctor, how is my mother?"

"She's fine," the doctor said wearily, "but she needs to be transferred to the ICU to be monitored closely."

"So, you're saying... there's still a risk to her life?" Penelope inquired worriedly.
