Chapter 247 You Must Be Pregnant with Twins Timothy was unexpectedly silent in response to Penelope's words.
He didn't say a word.
Neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
"You're joking!" Monica said. "Penelope, don't just match people randomly." "I'm serious." "Let's not talk about this!" Monica interrupted her. "We haven't hung out in a long time. I know a great restaurant nearby. Let's go." She grabbed Penelope's hand and started walking. "Mr. Davis, borrowing your wife for a while!" Although Kelvin was reluctant, he agreed, "Just remember to bring her back." "Will do!" Penelope muttered, "I can get hin my own. Beisdes I don't live at the King Manor anymore." Watching them walk away, Timothy was still engrossed in what had just happened. Suddenly he felt a tap on his shoulder.
"Kelvin, what are you doing?" Timothy brushed his hand away. "You scared me." "If you like her, go after her. Otherwise, Dr. Harry will really take her away." Timothy scoffed, "Nonsense, Monica has nothing to do with me." "I'm just reminding you," Kelvin raised an eyebrow, "as someone who's been through it." He now deeply regretted it.
No matter what he did, he couldn't make up for it, nor could he go back to the past.
In the restaurant.
Penelope seemed a bit distracted.

Monica stopped eating. "What are you talking about? Don't say that; it's bad luck! I'm still waiting for my godson and goddaughter to be born. I want to be their godmother!" She blissfully imagined, "I think you're going to have boy-girl twins. Wow, just thinking about it is wonderful! Life would be perfect! I can prepare lots of pretty little dresses and racing toys!" Penelope looked down at the food in her bowl. "I'm just hypothesizing." "No ifs." Monica changed the subject. "Here, eat svegetables, get your vitamins." Penelope smiled and didn't continue.
What Brandon had said about "faking death" kept lingering in her mind.
The fewer people who knew about it, the better.
So, Penelope didn't plan to tell Monica, as this was a form of protection.
That way, Kelvin's anger wouldn't be directed at Monica.
On the way back, Penelope got off the bus one stop early and walked slowly along the road.
She inadvertently looked back and saw Brian following her.
Seeing that she had noticed him, Brian quickly tried to hide.
"You don't have to hide," Penelope said. "Thank you for standing up fortoday." "It was my duty." "Brian, you should ask Kelvin to reassign you. Stop being my bodyguard." Brian was taken aback. "Mrs. Davis..." "This job is thankless," Penelope sighed. "Forget it; I'll talk to Kelvin myself." She was almost ready to escape and didn't want to implicate the honest Brian.
"Mrs. Davis," Brian looked at her. "You're afraid that if you suddenly disappear, it will implicate me, right?" Planning your weekend reading? Ensure you're on nov@L5sfor uninterrupted enjoyment.

"When I first got the assignment, I didn't understand. If you wanted to leave, how could I stop you? Why would you care about my life? I'm just a stranger; you wouldn't care at all." "Mrs. Davis, you have wealth and luxury. You wouldn't understand the difficulties people like us face. But now I realize, you're a very kind and compassionate person. Now, I understand Mr. Davis's intention. You genuinely care aboutand considera friend." Penelope looked at the empty sidewalk ahead. "I used to have a hard life too. I wasn't always high and mighty, unaware of the hardships of the world. It's so difficult just to live well!" Brian clenched his fists and said seriously, "Mrs. Davis, if you want to leave, then go ahead. I won't be a block for you. You don't have to worry about how to get rid of me." Penelope stopped walking.
"I'll pretend I didn't see anything and won't stop you. I can tell, Mrs. Davis, you're truly unhappy with Mr. Davis." "Brian, you..." "As long as you understand, Mrs. Davis. I'll be going now." With that, Brian turned and quickly disappeared.
Penelope stood there for a long time, unable to shake off her reverie and return to her senses.
Brian was willing to let her go and bear all the consequences.
Why did he suddenly make this decision? Penelope felt... she hadn't done anything special, so why was Brian so loyal and devoted to her? The more she realized this, the more she felt compelled to consider Brian, to ensure such a good person wouldn't suffer on her account.
The nursing home.
After taking her medicine, Penelope cto visit Grace.
As soon as she entered the room, she smelled a very sweet, creamy fragrance.
"Mrs. Cooper, these are your favorite desserts." "These are new products from our store, not yet on sale. You're the first customer to try them." "Considering your health, the pastry chef specially made them sugar-free."

The manager from yesterday enthusiastically introduced them, smiling broadly.
Seeing Penelope, he smiled even more. "Mrs. Davis, you're here." "What is this..." Penelope pointed.
"Your mother loves our desserts. It's an honor for our store. From now on, I'll deliver them daily so she can enjoy the freshest cakes!" Penelope was speechless.
If her mother ate these every day, her blood sugar would be very high.
She already knew Kelvin had sent him.
"Thank you, but starting tomorrow, you don't need to bring them," Penelope said. "My
mom can have sdesserts occasionally to satisfy her cravings, but she can't have them as meals." "It's no problem, Mrs. Davis." "Tell Kelvin that I don't want you to bring them; it's not your fault." The manager rubbed his hands and left in disappointment after being rejected.
Penelope distributed the desserts to the nurses outside and the people in the neighboring rooms.
They wouldn't be able to finish them all anyway.
"Penelope, what does Kelvin mean by this?" Grace asked. "Does he think he can pleasewith a few cakes?" "Mom, just ignore him." "Weren't you going to buy them yesterday? Why didn't you show up later?" Penelope replied, "I had swork cup, so I got delayed." "Yes," Connor said. "Penelope is busy. She has a high salary and big responsibilities."
Grace was half-sat on the hospital bed, her eyes not fully opened, looking very tired. She heldPenelope's hand: "Lettell you something from the bottom of my heart. Now that your father's nis cleared and our family is reunited, I have no other expectations. My only worry is about your marriage."
