Chapter 189 Morning Sickness Strikes Again

But with Kelvin holding the reins of power, he would have to find a way to let Anthony get involved.

Timothy knew this all too well.

He stroked his chin, "Kelvin, what's your plan? Are you going to honor your father's wishes, or..." Timothy made a throat-slitting gesture.

Family feuds and power grabs in wealthy clans are a brutal, zero-sum game.

Only one can claim the throne.

And the loser... is left with nothing but misery.

"If they keep their heads down, I might let them stay," Kelvin said coolly. "But if they get greedy, they'll end up with nothing."

"Smart as Lily and Anthony are together, they're still no match for you," Timothy scoffed. "If not for their Davis ties, they'd be long gone from LA. But honestly, your biggest challenge is your young wife."

At the mention of Penelope, Kelvin did indeed feel a twinge of worry.

He rubbed his temple.

"This whirlwind romance chase, all excited and forgetting home - enjoying it?" Timothy teased, arms crossed. "But it's us, the regular grunts, who suffer."

Kelvin shot him a look, "It's fine."

Timothy asked, "When is Penelope returning to work? She's the lead designer at Adoring Cupid, you know."

Kelvin suggested, "Let her rest at home for a couple of days. Once the bandages on her face are off, she can come back to the office."

Kelvin was concerned. He feared that the scars might make her feel insecure and afraid to face people.

But he found no fault in her appearance, feeling only a deep-seated tenderness.

"All right then," Timothy said. "Wish you luck with your wife-chasing."

Kelvin didn't respond.

The road ahead was long and without end in sight.

And besides... Nathan was back.

Kelvin envied Nathan for having shared her formative years, growing up inseparable, and being a significant presence in her life. Kelvin was never entirely certain about Penelope's true feelings for Nathan.
