Chapter 445 Kelvin's Persistent High Fever

"Alright."

Penelope trudged upstairs to her room.

She plopped down at her desk, pencil in hand, staring blankly at the empty paper.

She'd seen "Adoring Cupid" come to life and put the small town's "Silk Haven" brand on the map.

Since Lucy got sick, she hadn't sketched a thing, and now she felt kinda rusty.

Plus, after everything that went down, she had a whole new take on jewelry.

Penelope shut her eyes, took a deep breath, and thought hard about the kind of jewelry she wanted to design.

It had to be classic, timeless, high-end, and something every woman would drool

"A high fever?"

'Wasn't he fine this afternoon? How'd he get sick so fast?' Penelope thought.

Jeff replied, "Yeah, his face is all red, he's sweating buckets, and we've changed the sheets twice."
