From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 644 He's Been Waiting for You Here for a Long TAs the words hung in the air, a pink sports car screeched to a halt right in front of them.

The window slid down.

"Hey there." Timothy's face popped into view. "Mind if I give the lovely Ms. Perez a lift home?" Monica blinked in surprise. "You?" Penelope was already laughing so hard she could barely stand.

"What's so funny?" Timothy shot back. "Surprised to see me?" "Are you a sissy or something?" Timothy looked confused. "What? Why would you say that?" Penelope pointed at Monica. "She said it, not me." "You calleda sissy?" Monica rolled her eyes. "Why are you driving such a pink car? Don't you have any other cars in your garage?" Timothy ignored the question and asked, "Do you like this color?" "It's fine, but if you're driving it..." "I don't mind as long as you like it." With that, Timothy honked the horn. "Hop in. I'll take you home." Believing all girls loved pink and knowing Monica's tough exterior hid a tender heart, he bought her the car! Seeing Monica hesitate, he added, "Did you forget you're my girlfriend? Isn't it only right forto take you home?" Alright then.

That line always worked on Monica! She sighed, opened the passenger door, and got in.

"Wait," Monica said. "If we both leave, Penelope will be alone." "Why are you in such a rush? Someone's been waiting at the door for over an hour. Let's go!" Timothy floored it and sped off, leaving Penelope standing there, puzzled.

Waited for an hour? Who? She glanced around and spotted a black Maybach parked by the curb, its lights off, looking very low-key.

It kinda looked like the car from home.

The King Manor's garage had so many luxury cars; Penelope couldn't remember all the models.

Just as she was staring at the Maybach, its lights suddenly flicked on, forcing her to shield her eyes from the glare.

"Mrs. Davis," the driver called out, running over. "Mr. Davis has been waiting for you for a long time." It really was Kelvin's car! Penelope climbed into the back seat.

And found not only Kelvin but Lucy too! He even brought Lucy? Penelope instinctively checked the time.

It was almost eleven! "Lucy has school tomorrow," Penelope said. "Why did you bring her?" Kelvin answered indirectly, "You know it's late now." His tone was dripping with sarcasm.

Penelope asked, "What's wrong?" Kelvin pursed his lips.

"I was just having dinner with Monica and Tina," Penelope said. "We didn't go to a bar, and no guys were there." "You drank, didn't you?" "A little bit." Penelope gestured. "And it was very low in alcohol." She only had two sips! "I can smell it," Kelvin said. "It's strong." Penelope sniffed herself. "Really? Maybe it's from being in there so long, it rubbed off." "Who allowed you to drink?" he asked. "Do you know how dangerous it is for a woman to drink outside?" If you're loving the book, nel5sis where the adventure continues.

How was that dangerous? But Penelope still answered softly, "I'm not drunk. And I won't drink next time." She didn't quite get it.

Kelvin seemed ticked off again.

What's his deal? Why was he always mad? Did he want her to sweet-talk him? What, did he like being pampered? Was he hooked on it? "Mommy," Lucy piped up from the side. "Daddy's been waiting for you for a long time." "I didn't ask him to wait. I could've chby myself." Lucy pointed at the phone. "Daddy called you and sent messages, but you didn't respond. And he called more than once. Luckily, the screen is good quality, or he would've crushed it." Penelope finally remembered to check her phone.

Sure enough, there were a bunch of missed calls and unread messages from Kelvin.

"I can explain!" Penelope said quickly. "I had my phone on silent, so I didn't hear it. And I left it by the seat while eating, so..." She showed him the screen. "Not just yours, I didn't see my colleagues' messages either. Look!" Kelvin's face was stone-cold.

"Mommy." Lucy blinked her big eyes. "You didn't chfor dinner without saying a word. We made a lot of food at htonight." "Sorry." "You went out to eat delicious food alone," Lucy added.

"It won't happen again." "Mommy, you drank alcohol." "I won't drink anymore."

Going out for a meal, getting grilled by Kelvin, and then facing Lucy's interrogation! If Sam were here right now, would he have her back? "Drinking is bad for your health," Lucy said. "No wonder Daddy is upset. I'm upset too.

Mommy, you're being irresponsible with your health." "I..." She was about to apologize again.

But then she thought, she didn't do anything wrong.

Why was she here taking the heat from both of them? Penelope was about to speak when Lucy started counting on her fingers.

"You didn't chto have dinner withand Daddy. Drank alcohol. Didn't answer Daddy's calls OV of messages. Stayed out late. Madeand Daddy wait in the car for an hour." As she counted, she felt like she didn't have enough fingers.

Lucy added, "What's more, you made Daddy pay the bill." Penelope finally got it. "So the gentleman the waiter mentioned was you." She wondered who would pay her bill! Turned out it was Kelvin, her own husband! Now, Penelope felt pretty justified.

She took Kelvin's arm. "Thanks, honey. This restaurant is pricey for a reason. Let's cback another day with Lucy. It's on me!" Penelope was getting pretty smooth at calling him "honey." And since Kelvin was in a bad mood, she had to butter him up.

Kelvin snorted.

Penelope quickly leaned closer to him. "It's so expensive. I was feeling bad about it." "Are you short of money?" Kelvin asked.

"Not really." Penelope shook her head. "Just thought spending thousands of dollars on a meal is a bit much." She didn't often spend money. She mostly ate and lived at the King Manor and the company.

Kelvin had set up a huge walk-in closet for her to store clothes, shoes, and bags, and there were still brand 上! new ones she hadn't even worn yet.
