Chapter 178 Sending Penelope Away

He glanced at the clock and asked calmly, "Where is Penelope?"

"Mrs. Davis..." Ryan replied, "At King Manor."

"Bring her here," Kelvin ordered.

Everyone knew that Grandpa Davis had issued a strict order and without his consent, Penelope wasn't to set foot outside The King Manor!

With a lift of his brow, Kelvin asked, "What's the matter? Can you not understand my word?"

Seized with an idea, Ryan said, "It's pretty late. Mrs. Davis must be... must be sleeping by now..."

Ryan thought the excuse was ingenious.

As expected, Kelvin fell silent for a moment.

Indeed, it was almost dawn.

She must've been scared and anxious these past few days, certainly not in the best of spirits.

After a pause, Kelvin instructed, "Get the doctor."

Ryan followed his command, "Yes, Mr. Davis."

Upon the doctor's arrival, he greeted Kelvin respectfully, "Mr. Davis, are you feeling unwell?"

"I need to leave the hospital for about two hours," Kelvin stated. "Find a way to secure the wound so I can get out of bed and move around."

The doctor was speechless.

Ryan was shocked.

Where was Mr. Davis planning to go?

What could be so urgent that he'd neglect his recovery?

"What are you waiting for?" Kelvin's face darkened with impatience and demanded, "Get ready."

"Mr. Davis,vour arm is severely iniured. The saving is that it takes a hundred davs to recover from such injuries. You've just awakened. How could you possibly..." the doctor began.

"That's why I'm asking you to find a solution," Kelvin interjected.

Otherwise, he would have already tossed the covers aside and gotten up.
