Chapter 263 When Rivals in Love Meet, Sparks Fly "Babies, Mommy will take you away soon." Penelope looked at her belly tenderly, gently stroking it.
Kelvin, who had just left the ward, quickly darkened his expression, exuding an aura that warned others to stay away.
"Brian." "I'm here, Mr. Davis." "Don't let your guard down. Keep a close watch on her." Kelvin ordered. "I'll also increase the security around the hospital." Brian responded, "Understood." "Report her situation toevery two hours." "Yes, sir." Kelvin furrowed his brows, keeping an even closer eye on Penelope's every move.
He felt that her unusually good mood today was out of the ordinary.
Grace's death had hit Penelope hard. She had been in a daze for days, even walking unsteadily.
When she saw him, she would just glance over as if he didn't exist.
She wouldn't respond to him, cold and prickly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo during Penelope's tin the hospital, Kelvin only dared to visit at night because he couldn't stand her ignoring him.
But today, she surprisingly didn't chase him away and even talked to him a lot. Although their conversation still revolved around divorce, at least he could see her more and even hold her.
For Kelvin, that was enough.
As long as he kept a close watch on her, nothing should go wrong.
As Kelvin left, Timothy and Monica stood side by side at the corner of the hallway, arms crossed in identical poses.
"I've never seen a man so single-minded." Monica said. "He clings to Penelope no matter what. She yells at him, hits him, and he endures it. Even cold treatment doesn't work on him." Timothy said, "That's love." "Did you see the bite mark on Kelvin's hand? It's so deep. Penelope really didn't hold back." Monica sneered, "Why should she hold back? Did he ever do that for Penelope before?" "So he deserves it now." "Yes, exactly." Monica finally nodded in satisfaction. "It's about tI heard something sensible from you." Timothy glanced at her. "I'm still your boss, you know. Shouldn't you be more respectful when talking to me?" Monica suddenly reached out and touched Timothy's forehead.
Their skin made contact.
It felt like Monica's fingers sent an electric current through Timothy's body.
He was momentarily stunned.
"You don't have a fever," Monica said, retracting her hand. "Mr. Foster, why are you suddenly talking nonsense and acting all high and mighty?" Timothy was exasperated.
"Alright, I have things to do. I'm leaving." "Where to?" Monica turned and waved her hand nonchalantly. "I have a lunch date with Dr. Harry to thank him for taking care of Penelope!" Having lunch with Dr. Harry? That was a date! Timothy watched her back, wanting to say something, but Monica quickly disappeared. The next day.
Dr. Harry cto check on Penelope.
"Everything is stable for now. You're in much better shape than last month," Dr. Harry said, flipping through the medical records. "The further along you are in your pregnancy, the more stable it becomes. If you get through these critical first three months, and are careful afterward, there shouldn't be any major issues." "Do I still need to take the medication to stabilize the pregnancy?" "Yes." Dr. Harry took a small bag from his white coat pocket. "It's all in here. Take two pills three times a day." Penelope took a look and saw that the bottles were all labeled "Vitamins." She smiled knowingly. "Dr. Harry, you're very meticulous." "Of course, it's better to be cautious. If we're not careful and get exposed, all our previous efforts will be in vain." Planning your weekend reading? Ensure you're on nov@L5sfor uninterrupted enjoyment.

Timothy and Ryan walked in one after the other.
"Mrs. Davis," Ryan said respectfully, "Mr. Davis askedto bring you the keys." "I didn't ask him to." "Well..." Ryan looked troubled and had to place the keys on the table beside him. "Mr. Davis said that if you're in a good mood and feeling well today, you can go take a look. The villa is nestled by the mountains and water, close to the city, and very livable." Penelope shook her head. "Take it back." "Are you stupid? It's a free gift." Timothy questioned. "Penelope, don't be so stubborn. I've had my eye on that villa for a long time. Kelvin wouldn't give it to me, and he wouldn't even sell it to me. But you got it for free!" "Then I'll give it to you." Penelope grabbed the keys and tossed them. "Catch!" Ryan was at a loss.
What should he do now? He couldn't go back and report this! Kelvin would kill him! "This is Kelvin's gesture, and I don't feel right taking it," Timothy said, "How about you keep it for now, and if you get tired of it in a couple of years, sell it to me?" Penelope was amused. "Alright, Mr. Foster. But why are you here today?" "I'm here to check on you. How's your recovery?" As he spoke, Timothy glanced at Dr. Harry.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere was a clear hostility in his eyes! "Pretty good," Penelope replied, "Thanks to Dr. Harry, his medical skills are excellent." "So, when are you returning? 'Adoring Cupid' needs your designs for the new season. We can't launch without our chief designer. !" Penelope wasn't sure and looked at Dr. Harry.
"You can cin a couple of days," Dr. Harry answered. "You just need to take my medication on tand supplement my nutrition. No big issues." "Good."

Penelope was puzzled.
Was there something wrong with what Dr. Harry said? Why did he suddenly laugh? Dr. Harry remained unfazed. "Mr. Foster's dedication to work is truly impressive." "Not really. I can't compare to Dr. Harry's leisure." Penelope was confused.
A doctor's job is leisurely? Dr. Harry is busy day and night, often called in for surgeries in the middle of the night, exhausted.
Was Timothy being sarcastic? "Leisurely is not quite accurate," Dr. Harry replied, "But I do have tfor a Mexican meal." "Is Mexican food good?" "It's not about what you eat, but who you eat with." Timothy's face instantly stiffened.
Penelope weakly asked, "What are you guys talking about? Dr. Harry, did you have Mexican food with Monica last night?" "Yes." So that's it! Penelope suddenly understood! These two men were definitely love rivals! No wonder they were so hostile towards each other!
Timothy sneered again. "I was wondering why Monica has been so distracted at work lately, running here right after clocking out Turns out someone else is waiting for her." "She specifically cto accompany Mrs. Davis. I just met her by chance," Dr. Harry smiled. "And a small suggestion, Mr. Foster, calling your employees every ten minutes after work affects their appetite and ruins the atmosphere." The tension was palpable.
Penelope finally understood what was going on.
Last night, upon discovering that Dr. Harry had Mexican food with Monica, Timothy
was consumed with jealousy. Unsure of how to handle his feelings he kept reaching out to Monica under the pretense of work.
