Chapter 198 I'll Leave Kelvin Right Away

Lily remarked, "Just a meeting, a little chat. You're now Kelvin's darling, his prized possession; even if I had a hundred guts, I wouldn't touch you."

Penelope replied, "All right, I'll come over."

Although she didn't know Lily's intentions, the saying, 'Nothing ventured, nothing gained,' was true.

To uncover the truth, she needed to engage with Lily and Anthony up close. By talking more, she could find a breakthrough, a way out!

Penelope set off for the appointment.

Before entering the coffee shop, she called out tentatively, "Jack?"

From a corner, Jack appeared swiftly, "Mrs. Davis."

"It's nothing," she said with a smile. "Just checking if you were here."

At a table by the window, Lily and Anthony were waiting.

Anthony surveyed her with a gaze that prowled from head to toe, distinctly unsettling.

"I'm here," Penelope said, taking a seat opposite them. "Let's talk straight; what do you want to discuss without beating around the bush?"

Anthony kept his eyes on her, and said, "I really don't know what Kelvin sees in you. Beauty? There are plenty more attractive than you for him to pick. Smartness? Your IQ doesn't seem that high. Penelope, what did you do to make Kelvin so infatuated with you?"

"Is that any of your business?" Penelope retorted. "Mind your own."

Anthony scoffed, "Oh, the lady has some fire; maybe that's what Kelvin likes." Contempt filled Anthony's face.

He could easily find someone at a nightclub with a better figure than Penelope!

Kelvin must've been too long without a woman to fall for this plain Jane type.

Lily interjected, "Enough, let's talk business. Penelope, be frank, do you want to leave Kelvin?"

Penelope raised an eyebrow, intrigued, and asked, "You're here to persuade me to divorce? Are you sure?"
