Chapter 386 When He Gets Cunning, Not Even Lucy Is Spared

"Kelvin, I made it clear in front of Mr.Liam Davis."

"I've never given you any gifts, this is my..."

Penelope cut him off, "Kelvin, your gifts are always too expensive. I can't accept them."

That crown was already too much for her.

And now, he wanted her to take shares.

"I never wanted these things," Penelope sighed. "Let's just leave it."

She gently placed the contract on the table.

Kelvin stood still.

"Penelope, I've been thinking. What do I have to do to see a real smile from you?"

"I want to give you everything I have, but you don't care. You don't even look at it."

"What do you really want, freedom? I gave it to you. I said I'd let you and Lucy go, and you can come and go freely in LA."

Penelope looked up and met his gaze.

So deep, so dark.

"Kelvin, what I want may never be attainable."

From the start, Penelope just wanted a sincere heart, a simple and lasting relationship.

She didn't want power or wealth.

She just wanted someone to love her wholeheartedly, till death do them part.

But her marriage with Kelvin had left her scarred, making it impossible for her to love someone wholeheartedly again.

The room fell silent.

Lucy looked at Kelvin, then at Penelope.

"My tummy is hungry," she tugged at Penelope's hand. "Mommy, I want to eat." Penelope collected her thoughts. "Alright, what do you want to eat? I'll make it." "I'll eat whatever mommy makes!" Lucy reminded, "Make some for daddy too."

"You..."

Afraid that Kelvin wouldn't have anything to eat.

She turned and walked towards the kitchen, Kelvin followed. "I'll help you."
