Chapter 51 He Played Favorites

"No matter what, you should apologize to Helen. She has been looking for Lana for a long time tonight."

What Cason said was like a stab in Penny's heart.

Cason was reaching out to pat Penny on the shoulder when he was comforting Helen.

"Penny, it's not that Dad doesn't defend you, but you know about Lana's condition. The doctor said... if we don't take good care of Lana, she may only have ten years to live." Penny recoiled.

It was just a small move, but it showed that there was a wedge between them.

Cason froze, and a shade of loss crossed his face. "Helen was so impulsive! Your face is swollen. I'm going to get you medicine."

Cason was such a hypocrite. Penny already had enough of this.

"Dad, I'm okay."

Her tone was flat, and she dropped her hand off her cheek.

"I'm leaving. Just look after Lana when she wakes up."

When Penny turned around and left, Helen sneered. "You finally show your true colors. Lana remains in critical condition, but you're in a hurry to leave. Do you want Lana to die in there so that you will be the only daughter in the Stuart family?"

"Helen!"

Cason snapped. He thought Helen was being mean.

"Helen was mad when she said that. Don't take it personally..."

Penny's lips curled into a sneer. "No one in the Stuart family would believe me if I said I want Lana alive. I won't hold grudges against Helen for slapping me, but this is the last time I put up with it." With that, Penny entered the elevator without any hesitation.

As soon as the elevator door closed, Helen pointed her trembling finger at the spot where Penny had been standing.

"What the hell she got an attitude about? She has no respect for you at all!"

Cason sighed.

"Word came from the Fletcher family that they were willing to help us with the second round of financing. The credit goes to Penny. Penny is indeed petulant sometimes, but as an elder, you can't always slap her."

Helen curled her lips and regretted not slapping Penny hard enough.

Penny walked out of the elevator, wrecked. She was heartbroken but she didn't show it.

Penny never cared what Helen thought of her, but now Cason was partial to Helen.

Cason took sides with Helen and Lana.

Penny was in a hurry when she got out of the elevator. She walked straight ahead, bumped into a person at the corner, and then took a few steps back.

Penny didn't look up to see whom she bumped into. "Sorry."

After saying this, she lowered her head and was about to leave.

But an uncertain voice came from behind. "Perry?"

Penny froze, turned around, and found that it was Colin's mother, Nancy.

Nancy was wearing a decent suit with an HermRs handbag in her hand. Seeing that Penny's face was swollen, Nancy was stunned and a bit angry. "Who hit you? Did you have a row with Colin?"

Penny was depressed in the beginning, but when she met Nancy now, she was only nervous.

Penny thought, "Now that Colin was not here, should I confess to Nancy? Otherwise, I'll find myself in a tight spot when things get harder to explain." "Ms. Fletcher, actually, I..."

Before Penny could finish speaking, Nancy held her hand, walked her to a ward, and asked the doctor to put medicine on her cheek.

With outsiders here, Penny didn't say anything and only felt immense stress.

Seeing that Penny was weak-spirited, Nancy was furious.

Nancy's personal doctor didn't have time to deliver the traditional medicine she usually took. Originally, Nancy wanted to have someone deliver the medicine to her, but she happened to pass by the hospital, sc she came in to pick it up in person. But she didn't expect to meet Colin's girlfriend who was in a mess.

Nancy took out her mobile phone and wanted to call Colin, but she couldn't get through.

It seemed that Colin was at a party with his asshole friends.

Nancy called Orlando."Orlando, I need you to find out where Colin is. That bastard has gone too far."

Orlando glanced at the night outside, a little puzzled. "Nancy, what did Colin do wrong?"

"He beat up Perry. I never thought he'd hit a girl!"
