Chapter 316 People Without Fathers Really Lack Manners

Penelope barely dodged a bullet.

She never expcted that Ben would hand over her jewelry sketches to his cousin, who then launched the brand Silk Haven. It caught the eye of the Davis Group, and then...

Kelvin sought her out in person!

Good thing she used the alias "Molly"!

Her phone suddenly rang, making her jump. She answered without checking the caller

ID.

"Molly, it's me," Ben's voice was soft. "Where are you? Busy?"

"Sorry, Mr. Wright, I'm at the hospital. My daughter's sick."

Ben started to say something, but Penelope cut him off. "I'm busy right now.

Goodbye."

She hung up and gathered her courage to step outside.

She peeked around to make sure Kelvin was gone before rushing back to Lucy's side.

"Ruby, let's take Lucy for her check-up."

"Okay."

One of the tests involved a blood draw.

The needle was thicker and longer than usual.

Penelope couldn't bear to look at it.

"Mommy, it doesn't hurt," Lucy reassured her. "I'll get better soon, Mommy. I'll try not to get sick so much so you won't be so tired."

Penelope patted her head. "It's not your fault. It's okay. I'm not tired. I just want you to get better soon."

The long needle pierced Lucy's vein.

Lucy flinched.

Penelope held her tight.

It was noon when Lucy finished her tests. The results won't be out until this afternoon,

and a few more won't even be out until tomorrow.
