Chapter 114 Patching Up the Lie

Chapter 114 Patching Up the Lie

"Ms. Stuart, did you lose anything?"

Anika felt slightly worried and subconsciously wanted to help her look for it.

"No. I just found my book out of place."

Hearing this, Anika breathed a sigh of relief and went to cook.

After Penny picked up the gift box and opened it, she saw a delicate jade bracelet. Since it was from

Rex, it must be expensive. Out of politeness, she quickly took out her phone to call him.

When Rex answered the call, he coughed and asked, "Penny, how is your dad?"

Rex was kind to her, so she felt guilty at the thought of her lie about giving birth to a baby. She had

secretly signed an agreement with Orlando.

"He is much better. Thank you for the gift. It's too valuable."

"I asked Orlando to visit your father, but I don't know if he went there."

Rex wanted Penny to tell him if Orlando had listened to him.

"He went to the hospital to see my father. Orlando is treating me well. Don't worry, Rex."

Hearing this, Rex beamed with joy.

"I'm glad that you like him. Penny, please wear the bracelet tonight. I plan to introduce you to the

guests at the banquet. Otherwise, some ignorant people may offend you in the future."

Penny felt so moved that her eyes turned red.

"OK."

"Penny, I hope you and Orlando lead a happy life. And I want to have a great-grandchild."

She subconsciously wanted to call Orlando Mr. Fletcher. Fortunately, she realized the problem quickly

and said, "We will work hard. But I was in poor health when I was young, so it may take longer."

After one told a lie, he would need countless lies to patch it up.

"It's OK. I'm not that anxious. I'm glad that you're working on it."

Penny asked a few questions about Rex's health before hanging up. Looking at the bracelet, she felt

stressed. It was the same as the gift from Colin's mother because they were both symbols of status.

She raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows before going downstairs to get the dress she would

wear tonight. It was a starry sky dress dotted with diamonds. And she knew it worthed a lot at first

sight. It seemed Cason had spent much money on her for this banquet.

It fit well. After trying it on, she put it aside. There were several hours before the banquet, so there was

no hurry to put on makeup.

She went downstairs and asked, "Anika, is Niko locked in the backyard?"

"Yes, Mr. Fletcher has been living here these days, and I don't dare to let it out. Fortunately, the room is

soundproof. Otherwise, he would have heard it bark at night."

Penny went where Niko was locked. When she stood outside the room, she heard it bark with

grievance. So, she felt distressed and thought she must move out of Hills Villa as soon as she got the

money from the bank. She couldn't let Niko live like this because of Orlando.

Smelling her, Niko suddenly became excited. It barked, jumped, and wagged its tail like crazy.

When Penny opened the door, it instantly pounced on her. She did not want to leave the dog's hair in

the villa, so she picked up the leash and took it out for a walk. After telling Anika about it, she took it for

a walk along the road. Niko was a sheepdog with an active nature, so she must trot to keep up with it.

She had wronged it in the past two days, so she didn't blame it.

After they walked for about 1,000 feet, Niko suddenly barked and rushed forward. Penny couldn't pull it

back, and the leash hurt her hands.

She snapped, "Niko!"

Then, she saw Zoey sketching in front of her.

The route was suitable for walking dogs and sketching. The mountains were on the river's other side,

so the scenery was beautiful.

Hearing the dog bark, Zoey turned her head around. When she saw Penny holding the dog leash, her

eyes lit up.

"Penny!"

Penny had not expected to meet her here. Tonight was her birthday party, so she should have been

preparing for it now.

"Is it your dog? What's its name? It's so cute!"

Zoey became more excited when Niko jumped up and down around her. And they were having a great

time.

Penny found Niko was enthusiastic about all the members of the Fletcher family.

Zoey was playful, so she grabbed Niko's two front legs and jumped. But suddenly, her face became

depressed.

"Niko resembles another dog I know. They have similar marks on the foreheads. It is a puppy raised by

my cousin. But they sent it away."

Orlando?

Penny raised her eyebrows because Orlando was allergic to dog hair.

"He is Orlando's brother. He was gentle. After he brought the puppy back, he loved it and played with it

daily. But they sent it away before he could name it."

Penny had not expected Orlando to have a brother. When she was about to ask about him, Zoey

added, "Please don't mention this to Orlando. Eric died young. He was about my age when he passed Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
