Pampered by My Ex-husband (Penny and Orlando)

Chapter 91 The Bad News

Keely sneered, "It's not that she has done anything wrong. It's just that the Fletcher family doesn't match up to the Fletcher family. We all know that if it weren't for her saving Rex's life, she would never have had a chance with Orlando."

Helen, known for her quick wit in arguments, chose to remain silent.

She could only harbor resentment towards Penny for failing to hold onto Orlando's heart, which had brought humiliation upon both her and Cason.

Keely glanced at Penny and noticed that she still maintained her indifferent attitude, which made her even more furious.

"This contract explicitly states that you are required to divorce within one year. Even if Orlando has sex with you, you have no right to bear children. And I refuse to allow my grandchild to be born into such an ambitious family."

Penny was agitated by these harsh words.

"Ms. Moran, you are my elder. I don't want to argue with you. Actually, during my three years here, I have successfully maintained a platonic relationship with Orlando," she replied, "I have chosen to overlook the continuous humiliation you have subjected me to. However, it is highly inappropriate for you to involve my father in this matter. Isn't that going too far?"

For some reason, the sight of Niko that morning had unsettled Kenny, possibly evoking her unpleasant memories.

Her eldest son had also owned a dog of the same breed.

And it was widely known that her son had passed away six years ago.

Now Orlando was her whole life!

Naturally, she disliked Penny when she heard Rex's plans.

"Penny, if you believe my words are harsh, then perhaps it's best for the Stuart family to seek alternative financing options instead of relying on the Fletcher family," Keely said. "Since you have accepted our assistance, it's ridiculous to seek any good reputation. I am merely stating the facts. Do you perceive my actions as intentional humiliation?" Her indifference evident, Keely retrieved her bag from the nearby side.

"Remember, Rex's flight is scheduled for 6 pm tonight. Do not forget to pick him up. Orlando will be there too. And as you have signed this contract, bring it to me," she added. Then she arrogantly left.

Unfortunately, it was true. Penny had no words to fight back.

Indeed, the Stuart family needed the Fletcher family for the second round of financing, making it inevitable for them to endure her humiliation.

But, Cason, deeply affected by the humiliation, was visibly shaken.

Struggling to catch his breath, he clutched his chest, his complexion growing pale.

"Dad?"

Penny exclaimed worriedly.

Cason closed his eyes, attempting to soothe the pain that gripped his chest.

His breathing grew rapid.

At that moment, Helen couldn't bring herself to blame Penny.

If something were to happen to Cason now, with Talon still trying to establish himself within the company, everyone would undoubtedly believe that the company belonged solely to Penny, overlooking her role as a stepmother.

With only a 10% stake in the company and no real power, Helen felt powerless.

So, they called for an ambulance and rushed Cason to the hospital.

Along the way, Cason struggled to speak, but ultimately failed and only released a deep sigh.

Penny was uneasy as well, rubbing her temples.

Upon arrival at the hospital, Cason was swiftly admitted to the emergency room.

His health had deteriorated over the years, and the last time he had become this angry with Penny, he almost fainted.

Today, Keely's words clearly touched on his pain.

Penny and Helen sat in the corridor, anxiously waiting as the lights of the emergency room flickered to life.

Helen let out a cold snort.

"If you had the ability to hold onto Orlando, why would Keely come to humiliate both me and your father? It's all your fault!" Helen seethed.

She grew increasingly angry as she pondered the situation.

Penny had witnessed Helen buying a villa for Talon, which had left Cason feeling guilty towards his daughter. As a result, he planned to hire a lawyer to transfer 20% of his shares to Penny as compensation. She adamantly refused, continuously trying to prevent it.

Eventually, Cason agreed to hold off on the transfer later.

That 20% of shares amounted to twice as much as what she currently held!

Although now she could live a comfortable life, how could she give up the chance to hold the Stuart's Group?

"If you want to hold onto Orlando, why don't you ask your own daughter to make a deal?" Penny retorted sharply.

"You! Do you think I haven't wanted to? If Lana's health weren't so delicate, how could I have let you benefit? But unfortunately, you just have that face, you're simply useless!" Helen said angrily.

Penny closed her eyes, refusing to engage in further arguments or dwell on the situation.

At this moment, all she desired was that nothing would happen to her father.
