From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 623 Brandon Loved Penelope Twice The pill flew through the air in a perfect arc.

Isabella's eyes locked onto it, filled with greed. She leaped up, snatched it, and without a second thought, popped it into her mouth.

No water, no hesitation, she just swallowed it down hard.

A grin spread across her face after she gulped it down.

"Alright," she mumbled to herself. "I'm pure again. Still clean. Maybe Brandon will still like me. If I were dirty, I wouldn't be worthy of him. He says he loves Penelope now, but it's just cause of her status. He never forgot the little girl from his past. So when Penelope showed up, he couldn't help but chase those happy childhood memories." As she spoke, Isabella started to laugh, looking almost innocent. "Yeah, that's gotta be it!" But Kelvin wasn't about to let her off easy.

He could mess with someone's body, but he was even better at messing with their mind.

"Stop fooling yourself," Kelvin sneered. "Isabella, Brandon fell for Penelope way before he knew about her background. You just didn't see it!" But Kelvin didn't know that back then either.

He always thought Brandon, with his fiancée and spotless rep in LA, would never do something as fickle as changing his heart.

He thought they were just friends, really hitting it off from the start.

Looking back now, sthings were just meant to be.

Isabella shook her head over and over. "What are you talking about? Stop spouting nonsense and trying to mess with me!" "Isabella." Kelvin.asked. "Remember. four,vears ago when Penelone, jumped off the yacht into the sea?" "Of course! I was on another yacht! Brandon got distracted and even argued with me." That was their first fight, so Isabella remembered it clearly.

"Do you know why she jumped into the sea?" Kelvin asked again. "It's been four years; have you really figured out Brandon's heart?" "The truth? What truth could there be about Penelope jumping into the sea?" Kelvin spoke slowly, "It was a fake death planned by Brandon. After she jumped, someone was already underwater to pull her up, quietly bringing her ashore, then sending her out of LA to start a new life!" Isabella was completely stunned.

"Even the female corpse that was later found was arranged by Brandon," Kelvin said. "The whole thing was a setup, and Brandon was behind it all! And you, you knew nothing!" Every word hit Isabella like a ton of bricks.

She was in a daze for a long tbefore she suddenly reacted.

"So Penelope wasn't lucky to be rescued, nor was she washed ashore by the waves. She, she was..." Isabella suddenly screamed, her voice cutting through the air, "No! I don't believe it! Kelvin, you're lying to me. You have to be lying." 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! "Brandon and Penelope both admitted it topersonally." "Then why didn't you punish them? Why?" Isabella asked. "Kelvin, aren't you mad? Aren't you furious? They plotted against you, betrayed you, and wanted to leave you!" "Because it was my mistake that made Penelope prefer to risk a staged death rather than stay by my side. So, I have no right to be angry." "You actually chose to forgive?" "Yeah." Kelvin nodded. "I can let this go. But you should also know that this happened." Kelvin knew exactly how to hit Isabella where it hurt the most and then twist the knife. "Isabella, why would Brandon take such a big risk to help Penelope? Was it because of friendship? Sympathy? Or to oppose me? You're smart; you know why." Isabella forced the words out through gritted teeth. "He loves Penelope!" "That's right. He fell for her four years ago! Not after her background was revealed. Brandon wanted to leave you and break off the engagement with you!" "Brandon loved Penelope twice," Isabella murmured, tears streaming down her face. "Once, he loved the young Penelope, the daughter of the Mitchell family. Then, he loved the Penelope he reunited with years later!" Brandon's heart had always belonged to Penelope, not Isabella. Isabella's scream was sharp and piercing, nearly shattering eardrums.

"I don't believe it; it's fake, all fake!" Isabella kept shouting. "You're lying to me, Kelvin. You're saying this on purpose! You're just trying to provoke me, to hurt me! Aren't you in pain? Don't you feel pathetic? The woman sleeping next to you has always been on another man's mind! Can you tolerate that? Kelvin, you're Kelvin! Who can steal a woman from you? Who can compete with you?"

Isabella rushed over, her eyes wide open. "Quick, go punish them; vent your dissatisfaction don't suppress yourself. Penelope betrayed you; she doesn't love you anymore! You should be angry; you should make her lose everything!" Kelvin raised his hand and grabbed her by the neck, pulling her close.

The veins on the back of his hand bulged.

"Isabella, I'm telling you this so you know that both you and I were deceived back then completely m upaware of the staged death! Considering you once tippedoff about Brandon and Penelope's close relationship, I can let you go!" Kelvin's grip tightened. "Listen carefully, hand over the other half of the antidote, I'll cure your poison, and let you leave LA, sparing your life! As long as you never set foot in LA again and disappear without a trace, I won't trouble you anymore!" Isabella's body trembled uncontrollably, her breathing becoming short and rapid. "You'll letgo?" "I will!" Isabella's mouth hung open, her lips turning a dark purple.

At that moment, the door was suddenly slammed open. "Isabella!" Brandon rushed in.

He had heard Isabella's heart-wrenching screams from the hallway before he even got close.

Thinking something had happened, he rushed over as fast as he could, even fighting off the guards outside the door, before finally mustering all his strength to burst through the door!
