Chapter 323 Going to the Back Mountain Right After Returning Home

In a flash, four years had slipped away, and Brandon realized he hadn't done much for Penelope.

Penelope and Brandon barely talked, and it was always through Ruby within four years.

Whenever he asked if she needed help, Penelope would brush it off, saying everything was fine.

She always turned him down.

"Brandon, you've already helped me a lot. I can't keep asking for more."

"What about Lucy?" Brandon asked, "Her illness is serious and can't be ignored!"

"I..."

Brandon made a firm decision. "Alright, it's settled. First, take Lucy for a check-up. If there are more issues, let me know, and I'll help."

He was aware of Penelope's strong sense of pride, surely feeling distressed at present, especially with Lucy's deteriorating condition, fearing her mental stability might collapse.

So, Brandon said, "Think of it as a loan. You can pay me back slowly. This is for Lucy. You don't want her to suffer, right?"

"Penelope, I've never met Lucy, but I've seen her photos. She's adorable and smart. We have to do everything to help her!"

"Everything is for Lucy, got it?"

After comforting Penelope, Brandon hung up.

Ruby added, "Penelope, now isn't the time for pride. Lucy's health is what matters most."

"I know, I just feel so useless."

"You've done great; you're just too kind," Ruby said, patting her shoulder. "Those design drawings you made are valuable! You could sell them for more, but you only sell to Mr. Wright."

"Mr. Wright has been kind to me, and I thought I didn't need much money."

Then Lucy was diagnosed with leukemia.

Ben's salary and commission were good, way above the average in a small city.

Penelope could make thirty thousand dollars a year easily.

But expenses were high.

Tuition for two kids, extra classes, food, clothes, and Ruby's salary.

Penelope paid for everything.
