Chapter 205 A Surprise for You

She was determined to uncover the truth and present the evidence before Kelvin, and

to tell him that he had wronged the Cooper family for all these years!

Only then could the wrongs be made right, and the truth laid bare.

Looking at her father's aged face, Penelope wondered if she could forgive Kelvin so easily. How could she face her parents with dignity?

The suffering her parents endured was no less than her own.

Kelvin had single-handedly destroyed her once-happy family.

"Let's change the subject," Penelope suggested, redirecting their conversation. "Dad, I've got some good news for you."

"What is it? Has your mother's health improved?" he asked hopefully.

"She'll get better, Dad. But the news is... you're going to be a grandfather," Penelope revealed.

Mr. Cooper stared blankly for a few seconds before glancing at her abdomen. "Are you pregnant?" he asked.

"Yes," Penelope confirmed.

"The father of the child..." Mr. Cooper asked.

"It doesn't matter," Penelope interjected. "Dad, it's my baby. I will carry it for ten months and give birth to it. Whoever the father is, it's not important."

Mr. Cooper, who was both understanding and progressive, looked at her tenderly, and said, "You're right. Having a baby-or should I say babies-will give you more to strive for."

"Dad, it's not just one child. There are two," Penelope corrected him, holding up two fingers. "I've had my checkup. Twins."

Tears welled in Mr. Cooper's eyes as he smiled, saying, "Everything is improving."

Leaving the prison, Penelope received a message from Nathan.

Nathan: [Everything is set on my end. All we need is the right moment.]

Penelope: [Good.]

Nathan: [The time is set for tomorrow night, is that okay?]

Penelope: [Okay.]

She put away her phone and took a deep breath as she looked up at the clear blue sky.

Maybe all of this was nearing an end.

The hatred, the feuds, the deep-seated feelings...

It was time to draw the line.
