He comforted himself rationally and ruthlessly and quickly looked away.
After Penny entered the hospital, she finally couldn't hold on any longer and leaned against the wall
beside her to breathe.
The drug in his body was kicking in. After she had been slapped in the face, she still felt a burning pain.
It was painful and warm, and she felt dizzy.
Fortunately, a nurse passed by and helped her into the ward.
Penny thought about tonight's scene and felt like vomiting.
And she vomited, and with a pale face, she accepted the doctor's arrangement for infusion.
But at this time, Cason sent her a message, asking her not to forget to take Orlando back, "Penny, you
and Orlando are getting married, and you should take him to visit the Stuart family after all."
Penny immediately guessed the Stuart family needed Orlando to take over and dispel the rumors
outside.
After all, now that the Stuart family had completed the second financing round, they would undoubtedly
be better connected.
Many people would give shortcuts to the Stuart family because of the marriage between the Stuart
family and the Fletcher family. They would do it out of respect for Orlando and the Fletcher family.
But in this circle, no one was a philanthropist. When they did someone a favor, they certainly wanted
something in return.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
If the relationship between the Stuart family and the Fletcher family were not good, then the return
given by the Stuart family would be minimal, and no one would take it seriously. Therefore, the Stuart
family must prove that Orlando cared about this marriage.
In this way, those who had done the Stuart family favors would continue to help them.
Penny was sitting alone in the hospital, feeling so cold inside.
Cason sent her another message, "I shouldn't have quarreled with you most of the time, but you have
to believe that I was doing it for your good."
The carrot and stick approach was his routine.
Penny twitched the corner of her mouth.
But after her mother passed away, her father had been responsible for everything. When she was a
child, she had seen with her own eyes how difficult it was for her father to make money.
She couldn't ignore Cason when he only had one year left.
Thinking of this, Penny felt upset.
She didn't reply to this message and saw the last one he sent, "If you have Orlando to rely on, it will be
much easier for you in the future. Even if I'm gone one day, I will be happy in heaven."
Penny had to reply to this one, "Dad, I know. Don't ever say that again."
Cason had little time left, so Penny couldn't bear to see him say such things.
She stayed alone in the hospital on such a hot and humid night. Looking at the night outside the
window and listening to the occasional coughing of patients in the corridor, she was suddenly
overwhelmed with sadness and loneliness.
She lowered her eyes, feeling bitter.
Her phone suddenly rang, and she thought it was Cason again. She suppressed the surging emotions
in her heart, looked at her phone, and found it was Orlando.
"You don't have to pay back the money." He sounded freezing, and she only felt colder.
But Penny felt warm when she thought about this man saving her twice.
"Thanks."
Orlando looked at her straightforward reply and wanted to ask her how she was doing now.
But as soon as his fingertips touched the screen, he realized what he was doing.
He froze for a moment, put his phone away, and frowned.
This was a bad start, and he didn't like this feeling.
The phone he put away suddenly rang. When he saw the caller ID, his complicated emotions instantly
disappeared.
"Angie." He said after pressing the answer button.
A gentle female voice came from the other end of the phone, "Am I disturbing your rest?"
"No."
Orlando had never talked much, and he fell silent after saying this.
But Angie was very good at finding new topics. She talked about what she had experienced recently
and then said what she wanted to say most tonight with a smile, "I'll be back soon, Orlando."
