Chapter 166 Kelvin Comes to Her Rescue

The cold was unbearable, and Penelope shook uncontrollably.

"So fragile, just a few hours locked up and you're already falling apart," Fiona dragged her out of the basement and threw her onto the first-floor ground, "You heard me talking to Kelvin on the phone, didn't you? He's on his way."

Hearing that name, Penelope slowly opened her eyes.

"Yes, Kelvin's coming." She clenched her teeth, "He'll save me."

"He can't save you!" Fiona screamed, "You're in my grasp, and I won't let you go! I'll take you down with me! Understand? Give up any hope you have!"

But Penelope persisted, "He will save me."

The more Fiona thought about it, the angrier she got, slapping Penelope across the face, "That's for your stubbornness and your defiance!"

Unsatisfied, Fiona kicked her and grumbled, "If it weren't for my plan to humiliate you in front of Kelvin, I would've dealt with you already! Do you think I'm keeping you because I'm afraid to touch you?"

Penelope looked up at her, "Kelvin is smart and resourceful. Are you sure you can outsmart him?"

"I can! Because you're my trump card!" Fiona declared.

"But I trust him more," Penelope said, "Because he loves me, and he'll do everything he can to save me."

Fiona was enraged by her words. She yanked Penelope's hair, "Love? Kelvin loves you?" "Yes, he loves me," Penelope replied, "He told me himself, more than once."

Fiona burst into laughter, "Yeah, the woman who saved him that night with her own life was you, Penelope, not me. He's been searching for you all along. The child you're carrying was his... What a shame, huh? What did you two end-up with? Nothing!"

The child, forever a deep-seated ache in Penelope's heart.
