Chapter 924 | will live better than everyone else! Penelope suddenly froze, "Cameron, what's wrong with you?" Why was he looking at her with such eyes? Cameron stared at her firmly, "Penelope, why do you insist on participating in Mr. Turner's experimental research?" Penelope's heart tightened and tears welled up instantly, "Cameron, I'm doing this for you. Do you want to be trampled under Selena's feet? You've worked so hard for so many years, why does Selena have the right to take everything away from you so easily?!" Cameron gazed at this familiar face. Apart from being more extreme, there was no difference in Penelope's eyes compared to the way she had looked at him over the past decade.
Cameron wearily averted his gaze, "Penelope, you should admit one thing." "What?" Penelope asked.
"You and | owe her." Penelope's face turned completely pale in an instant, and her voice becsharp, "Even you think | owe her? It's Selena who has never accepted me. Can't you see how she humiliatesand targets me?" "Cameron, you're my boyfriend. Why are you speaking up for Selena? Hasn't she causedenough suffering? Why are you helping her and opposing me?" By the end of her speech, she could no longer hide her resentment.
Cameron didn't look at her and spoke softly, "The Soo family has a marriage contract with the Turner family, and my eldest brother has returned. If nothing unexpected happens, Selena may marry into the Soo family in the future. You... should avoid her in the future." Penelope was confused at first, but her face twitched, "The Soo family has to fulfill the marriage contract with the Turner family? Cameron, is your family crazy? Selena already has a boyfriend, and her reputation in Creephia is so bad... Why would your eldest brother like a woman who is past her prime?" Cameron suddenly lowered his voice, "Penelope!" Penelope realized she had said something wrong, her face turned pale, but she stubbornly looked up and refused to back down.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLooking at her eyes, Cameron's disappointment was faintly visible, "Penelope, you should know that if it weren't for you, the Riddle family wouldn't have ignored her for so many years. Everyone in the world can use those rumors to gossip about her, except for you!" Penelope was angry and wanted to refute, but in the face of such a solid fact, she had no room for argument.
Although Penelope was not entirely sure why the Riddle family, who had known about Selena's existence early on, gave up on her because they were afraid she would be hurt, she was once proud of this fact and naturally did not delve into the reasons behind it.
Now that Cameron has pointed out the whole truth, it has made Penelope feel embarrassed and difficult to accept.
Penelope gritted her teeth and said, "Why did Selena cback? If she hadn't cback, there wouldn't be so many things happening. Clearly, everyone in the capital wanted her to disappear! She shouldn't have cback at all!" Cameron's disappointment was immediately visible in his eyes, and he looked deeply at her before suddenly turning around and walking away.
Penelope was startled, and seeing Cameron's back, she finally realized that she had said too many abnormal things today. Her face changed in an instant, and she hurriedly caught up with him, saying, "Cameron!" Cameron paused his footsteps slightly, didn't turn around, and his voice was cold, "Penelope, perhaps in the grudges of the previous generation, we are not qualified to measure who is right or wrong, but | hope you are not blinded by jealousy and becsomeone who doesn't even know right from wrong!" Penelope was panicked, and tears burst out in an instant. She rushed up from behind and hugged him, saying, "No, Cameron, listen toexplain, | didn't mean to. | was just too angry and too scared. | spoke wrongly in the heat of the moment..." Cameron's voice was very low, "I just said that the Soo family may be engaged with the Turner family next, do you know what that means?" Penelope's face twisted for a moment, but her voice was gentle, "I know | was wrong. | won't say such things again in the future, and | will try to avoid Selena as much as possible. Don't be angry with me..." "Cameron, if my biological parents don't want me, do you not wanteither?" Cameron's heart softened, and he turned his head slightly, looking at the woman's gentle and pretty eyes.
His eyes softened. He turned around, reached out and touched her hair, "No." Penelope immediately smiled and buried her face in Cameron's arms, but in a corner where the young man could not see, there was endless resentment in her eyes...
Selena drove back to the villa and just walked in when the old butler cover, saying, "Madam, Miss Hattie is here." Selena remembered the incident of hanging up on the little maid's phone last night and was dazed.
As a child who had lost her parents and had psychological issues, the little girl may have overthought when Selena suddenly hung up the phone.
Selena asked softly, "Where is she?" The butler's expression becsomewhat strange, "She's hiding outside, cearly in the morning and has been outside for a long tbut refused to cin." Selena's eyes flickered and she walked towards the hall, "Leia, bring Hattie in." Leia turned around and went to fetch her.
Selena entered the hall, handed her backpack to the maid, and turned to wash her hands in the bathroom.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe maid poured two cups of hot tea on the table. As soon as Selena sat down, Leia led Hattie in. Hattie's nose was red, her eyes were dodging and she dared not look at Selena, obviously had been freezing outside for a long time.
Selena raised her hand and brought Hattie over, took the hot towel from the maid and wiped her face, smiling and asking, "Why didn't you cin when you cto see me, Hattie?" Hattie looked at her and said, "Selena, I..." Selena touched her hair and said, "Whatever the Riddle family does, it has nothing to do with you. | care about you not because of blood relationship, so you don't need to have any psychological burden." Hattie suddenly widened her eyes and looked at Selena for a while, then threw herself into Selena's arms, tightly hugging her waist.
Selena looked at this little girl who was similar to her and said tenderly, "I hope that Hattie can live well and live more proudly than anyone else." She and the Selena in Creephia both did not have a life that they were supposed to live, but she hoped to see it in this similar little girl.
Hattie seemed to sense something, looked up at Selena, and after a while, suddenly smiled, as if making a solemn promise, "Selena, don't worry, | will definitely try my best to live better than anyone else!" Selena lovingly touched her hair.
Leia and the butler stood on the side, looking at the two sisters, their eyes were somewhat relieved. Despite Osvaldo's love, Selena had very few blood relatives.
The Turner family only had Patrick, and the Riddle family only had Hattie.
Fortunately, Callum was still alive, and this girl still had a chance to see her father.
