From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 536 Two Cunning People! "How could she suspect your thing with Penelope?" Brandon asked.

Sam shot back, "She tailed us! Last twhen Mom pickedup to go to Grandpa's, she saw us!" So that's how it went down.

Who knows what else Isabella's been up to behind his back! "Sam, you gotta be careful," Brandon warned. "Stay away from Isabella. Don't hang with her, and definitely don't eat anything she gives you. Got it?" Sam thumped his chest. "Don't sweat it! I'm sharp; she can't outsmart me!" "Still, be cautious," Brandon insisted.

Sam grinned, "She's gonna be in hot water soon!" Brandon raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?" "Nothing. Hey, Uncle Brandon, check out the moon tonight! Looks like a pancake, so round and bright! It's makinghungry!" Clearly dodging the topic.

Brandon was puzzled but let it slide.

He was just biding his time, waiting for Isabella to make her move.

The day she did, the truth would cout! But Brandon's only worry was Isabella's knack for snapping Lucy back to reality. Once Isabella's true colors were revealed, would she flip out and drag Lucy down with her? "Get srest." Brandon walked to the guest room door. "From now on, you'll stay in the bedroom on the second floor. You don't have to squeeze into the servant's quarters with Ruby." "Can Ruby stay with me?" Sam asked.

"Of course," Brandon replied.

"Thanks, Uncle Brandon!" Sam beamed.

Before, he was worried Madison would get suspicious and didn't want Sam around her too much.

Now that Madison had moved out. Brandon could relax.

He could give Sam the best of everything without holding back.

And he was all in! Sam walked into the room and was about to dive onto the big bed when his smartwatch buzzed. "Penelope!" He jumped onto the bed, rolling around. "You miss me, don't you!" "Yeah, I wanna smack you!" Penelope's voice cthrough. "You're drivingnuts!" "Why?" Sam teased. "You're getting meaner, you know. That's not good. Anger makes you age and look ugly. What if you take off your makeup and still look like this? What then?" And what if Brandon didn't dig Penelope anymore? Looks aren't everything, but no guy wants to face a face aged by decades all the time! "Quit being so slick," Penelope snapped. "What did you and Kelvin talk about on the phone? What secrets are you two hiding?" Last time, when she saw Kelvin and Sam in the study, she knew something was up. Now, she had to get to the bottom of it! "What call? Kelvin and I have nothing to talk about." Sam played dumb. "You wantto go to King Manor again?" "Don't play dumb, Sam. Kelvin answered your call right in front of me!" Penelope said.

'This clueless dad!' Couldn't he take the call in private? Now, what was he supposed to tell Penelope? With a quick turn of his eyes, Sam had an idea.

He held the smartwatch away and yelled, "Oh, Ruby, I'm here! Yeah, yeah, I'm coming right now. Hold on!" Then he turned back to Penelope, "Ruby's calling me. Gotta go, talk later!" Did she really think she didn't know Sam's little tricks? This was her kid! He was totally dodging the question! If you're loving the book, nel5sis where the adventure continues.

If she couldn't get anything out of Sam, there was no way she could ask Kelvin.

Kelvin would be even sneakier than Sam! Two sneaky people! If those two teamed up to mess with someone, that person would be in for a rough time! Penelope put down her phone and stared out the window.

The evening breeze was gentle.

Could those carefree days in the small town ever cback? Maybe it was just wishful thinking.

Penelope wasn't trying to stop Sam from hanging out with Kelvin; she was just worried that Sam's identity would get exposed.

She didn't want to lose Sam.

Davis Group.

Penelope sat at her workstation.

She looked down, quietly checking out the injury on her finger under the desk.

The ointment Kelvin had put on last night seemed to be working well. The shallower cuts were already starting to scab over.

The deeper ones didn't hurt as much as before.

"What kind of ointment is this? I gotta check it out at hand buy a tube for backup..." Penelope was muttering to herself when Ryan's voice suddenly cfrom beside her. "Mrs. Davis." "Ah!" Penelope jumped up from her chair, looking at Ryan in shock.

Ryan was dumbfounded.

He hadn't done anything, so why was Penelope so scared? If you're loving the book, nel5sis where the adventure continues. Join us for the complete experience all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you! If she got seriously freaked out, Kelvin would kill him! "Mrs. Davis, I, um..." Ryan stammered.

Penelope patted her chest. "Ryan, when did you get here? Do you need something?" "I've been here for a while," Ryan said.

Everyone in the jewelry department had seen him.

Penelope felt a bit embarrassed. She had been too focused on her finger.

"Oh, oh." Penelope nodded. "Sorry about that." "No problem," Ryan said. "Mrs. Davis, here." Ryan handed over a fancy box with a bow on it.

"What's this..." Penelope asked.

"Mr. Davis bought it for you," Ryan said.

"I don't want it." Penelope immediately refused! Why would she accept a gift from Kelvin for no reason? "Mrs. Davis, everyone in the jewelry department got one," Ryan said. "If you don't take it, how will they feel comfortable taking theirs?" What? Everyone got one? Penelope looked up and saw that each person's desk had a fancy box and a cup of latte!

"Mrs. Davis, please take it." Ryan placed the box on her desk "khave other things to do, so I won't disturb En you." Penelope was still in a daze.

Tina next to her cover, all mysterious. "Mr. Davis bought us snacks and coffee. No other department got any! And the snacks from this place aren't sold to the public; only VIPs can buy them, let alone buy so many at once! The other departments are so jealous!" Kelvin had always favored the jewelry department.

But no one had any issue with that.; the wife of the Davis Group CEO worked in the jewelry department!
