She stares at Marcus. There is something about his face; he looks like he has been laughing and smiling for hours. His face looks bright. However, that is not the case now that they have a big problem on their hands.Marcus came down from the scooter. He wanted to say something when his eyes caught Penelope. The look on her face tells him she was damn angry and was coming towards him.“The bastard has decided to return home.” Marcus didn't know what he had done this time around; he was about to say something when Penelope grabbed his shirt.“You bastard, what did you do to my car? Didn't I warn you never to get close to my car? You're useless; you can't get a new car for your mother-in-law, yet you still want to destroy the one I'm managing, you're an enemy of progress?”Marcus's eyes opened a little. He couldn't believe Dylan damaged the car's front fender yesterday; he totally forgot.“Mother, let me–” Penelope cut Marcus off.“You don't have anything to say. I warned you never to
The inspection director quickly took his eyes off Marcus; he saw him pointing at the front fender. However, it seems Penelope was about to say something, so he focused all his attention on Penelope.“The car is old; can you do some work on it to make it look good in the eyes?” Elvis smiled brightly, knowing he was going to work on it and bring it back to life. Elvis, a seasoned automotive expert, stood beside the Penelope classic Mercedes-Benz 180, embarking on the journey to transform the vintage beauty into a modern marvel. Penelope, the proud owner of the aged car, was eager to learn about the extensive repairs and upgrades that would be necessary to breathe new life into his cherished Mercedes-Benz 180. Marcus was going to pay for it, he destroyed the car anyway. Elvis then faces Penelope.“I would advise you to do a full upgrade, which means we are going to transform this car for something else. When you see it, you will be amazed.” Penelope, at that moment, couldn't hold hers
Penelope was surprised to see Elizabeth. Both of them had been friends for a long time, but she traveled abroad and both of them lost contact. However, she wasn't happy to see her here. Penelope know Elizabeth would definitely make a mockery of her; she pretended to be smiling.“Elizabeth, is that really you? How are you?” Elizabeth stood up from where she was seated, walked towards Penelope, and stopped in front of her. Penelope wanted to hug Elizabeth, but she stepped backward immediately. She doesn't want her dress to get stained. Just looking at Penelope, she knows she doesn't have any money.“Yes, it's me. How have you been?” Penelope pretended as if she didn't understand what Elizabeth just did, but she was damn angry at this point.“I'm fine. It's been over six years since we last saw each other. How is your daughter?” Elizabeth smiled, but inside her, she knew all wasn't alright with Penelope; she seemed lost, and everything about her seemed off. She knows this isn't the sa
At that moment, Penelope's eyes opened a little. She knew Elizabeth would definitely find out Now, what if she has someone who works inside Dream High? Even if Marcus lies again, she will find out. Marcus just smiled. He thought the women's associations Penelope belonged to were all busybodies, but Elizabeth is still up there. Penelope belongs to a women's association she joined when she got married to David. Everything was okay back then, even though she didn't want to be with them anymore. She couldn't just tell them she wanted to quit; she has been enduring the hardship that comes along with it for some time now. Marcus gazes at Penelope; she looks ashamed. However, he's not going to allow his mother-in-law to get humiliated, not when he's there. He was about to say something when Elvis walked right into the scene. He faces Elizabeth and hands over her bills to her.“Here are your bills.” Elizabeth collected it. Her eyes widened; she couldn't believe she would have to pay eight t
Elizabeth was also shocked to hear Marcus's words. She knows both of them are just acting dramas; they think she believes that crap story of her son-in-law resigning from his job. He doesn't even look like someone who has been working; he looks useless. Marcus saw the look on Penelope's face; he knew she was In shock, he never wanted to say a word or help her out, but he couldn't keep quiet and watch his mother-in-law get humiliated in such a manner. However, he knows if he wants to be on the good side of Penelope, he will have to shut her friend mouth up.“Mother, let me have the bills.” Penelope hesitated at first, but everyone started looking at her. She decides to give Marcus the bill, but she knows he can't pay this time, and she wasn't asking him to pay but why he is trying to disgrace them even more? Marcus collected the bill and gazed at it.“20,000 dollars” Elizabeth bursts into laughter again. She now understands why Penelope looked so frustrated when she first saw the bil
Elizabeth gazed at Kelly; she couldn't believe he would dare speak now. He dare mention 8,000 dollars when someone she was trying to mock just spent 50,000 dollars to fix an old car, yet the fool opened his mouth to utter nonsense. He should have kept his mouth shut and waited for them to leave before he opened his mouth. Penelope, at that moment, just smiled. She saw the look on Elizabeth's face; she looked embarrassed.“Elizabeth, which of the cars do you use? I'm curious to know.”Elizabeth didn't say anything; she knew the amount Penelope's son-in-law just spent can buy her car. Its embarrassment would be too much if she stayed any longer.“I almost forgot. I have something very important to attend to soon. We will continue our discussion next time.” Penelope started laughing immediately.“Don't tell me you want to escape; don't run away from my question.” Elizabeth quickly walked out of the VIP office, and Kelly followed her from behind. The embarrassment was too much for her to
Kelly's eyes widen. He knows Elizabeth is capable of something like that. He knows that with this situation on the ground, people might not believe him even if he tells them he's innocent, and he is her son-in-law. She will just use the excuse of the divorce to make up a story. Kelly quickly came down from the car. Elizabeth gazed at him with dead eyes.“I'm going home right now to pack out your belongings. Make sure you come pick them up yourself today. If not, once the refuse dump company comes, I will be giving them your belongings to dispose of.” Elizabeth drove off. Kelly was confused at that point. He doesn't know what to do anymore. Everything he has ever worked for has been invested in his wife and her mother-in-law. Now he has nothing anymore. His head was full of thoughts. He knows he's finished, but he is not going to give up without a fight, if they want him they must compensate him for all he did. He has been playing a fool for years now, but at this moment it is time t
Hazel was speechless at that moment; she couldn't say anything. Marcus continued“I pleaded with him to saying my wife was a top fan of Alexis Silver, and surprisingly, he just gave the tickets to me.” Hazel's heartbeat could be heard; she always wanted to attend Alexis Silver's shows, but there was no spare money to buy a ticket, and besides, tickets always get finished before the day runs out. She was overjoyed; this was the best gift Marcus had given her this year.“Thank you, Marcus. I truly appreciate this gift, but first, let's go visit Benjamin before I thank you properly.” Marcus smiled upon hearing what Hazel just said.“Are we doing it tonight?”Hazel nods. Marcus just smiled, knowing he was getting something in return for his hard work. Hazel booked a taxi not long after it arrived. Marcus and Hazel entered, and they arrived at the hospital. Everybody wanted to come see Benjamin's progress. Marcus and Hazel enter the room, only to be greeted by Dylan and the guys from
