Chapter 588 I Have a Heart-Shaped Birthmark on My Waist

Nicole always had these simple, innocent wishes. She just wanted her daughter, wherever she was, to live a good life like Isabella.

Even if her daughter didn't have it as good as Isabella, it was okay. As long as she was

safe and healthy, Nicole could find some peace.

But how could Nicole even begin to imagine what a four-year-old girl might go through after going missing?

Maybe she was trafficked to some remote mountain village or forced to work in a coal mine.

Nicole couldn't bear to think about it too deeply.

Every time she did, her heart felt like it was being ripped apart. It hurt so much that she ended up with a chronic headache that nothing could cure.

When the headaches hit, all she could do was lie in bed, feeling nauseous and dizzy, her breathing quick and shallow.

"Mrs. Davis, you're a mom too. I don't expect you to fully understand, but I hope you can at least get where I'm coming from," Nicole said, wiping away her tears. "Even if Isabella is adopted, I'll protect her with my life."

Penelope looked away, trying to focus on something else.

Seeing Nicole cry made her feel like she might start crying too.

Suddenly, she felt a warm hand on hers.

Kelvin held her hand and gently pulled her into his arms. "Why are you getting so worked up, Penelope?" he whispered in her ear. "How do you know so much about the Mitchell family? Did Brandon tell you?"

Penelope nodded.

"He told you all this?" Kelvin let out a low, sarcastic laugh.

It was hard to tell if he was mocking Brandon or himself for being so out of the loop. "Don't let Mrs. Mitchell's tears get to you," Kelvin said. "Penelope, if you're this soft- hearted, you're going to get hurt."

He paused and added, "You're not always this soft. You can be as tough as nails with iner"

If only she could share some of that softness and kindness with him, that would be amazing.

But that was just wishful thinking on Kelvin's part.

He raised his hand and brushed under her eyes. "These people aren't worth your tears. Got it?"
