Chapter 163 Penelope Goes Missing

"Don't look at me like that. I'm stating the facts," Penelope responded. "Kelvin, I am a person, a living, breathing, free individual. You can't control everything I do!"

Was he so possessive that he needed to oversee whom she spoke to? Who does he think he was, a master of an estate by the Pacific? So ridiculously overbearing!

"I just care..." Kelvin softened his tone, "Seeing you so friendly with others makes me jealous, incredibly jealous."

He wanted to be more open, but he just couldn't. Kelvin was accustomed to getting whatever he wanted, be it the wind or the rain. Anything he desired, he had to possess. Others dared not even glance at the woman he loved without repercussions!

"I'm just socializing normally, I don't like him!" Penelope protested. "Please stop being irrationally jealous!"

Kelvin asked, "Then who do you like?"

Suddenly, the air became still.

"Do you like me, Penelope?" Kelvin pressed, "Have you ever felt a flutter in your heart for me? Even just a little?"

Penelope turned her head away, avoiding his gaze.

"If you don't answer, I'm taking it as a yes," Kelvin stated.

The moment he said that she responded quickly, "I don't like you."

"I don't believe you," he remarked.

"Believe it or not," Penelope said, "how much longer do you plan to stick around?" Kelvin hugged her tightly, his chin resting on her shoulder. "I know you hate me, and it's hard for you to forgive me right now... Penelope, I can hardly forgive myself." He'd been up all night, standing by his study window, smoking one cigarette after another. He thought about everything, every detail of that night, about the child. If the child had been with them, Kelvin was sure he and Penelope would still have a future.

Unfortunately... sigh. Maybe they could try for another, but how could one be so
