As soon as Grace finished, things turned awkward.
Orlando picked up his cup and took a sip of coffee.
Penny was momentarily flustered by the question.
But soon, she recalibrated her mind, lowered her eyes, and spoke in a flat tone.
"Well, it's not the other man. I was out all night and my husband called me."
Penny turned around and looked at Grace as she said with a smile.
It was the first time Grace had heard that Penny was married. Grace was immediately embarrassed
and felt it was ridiculous that she had been targeting Penny since yesterday.
Grace softly cleared her throat and heard Brian speak up at this moment.
"Grace, you should apologize to Perry. How could you say that? Thankfully, Perry is good-natured and
gives you a pass."
Grace wasn't so against Penny anymore and hurriedly apologized sincerely.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know you were married."
If Grace had known that Penny was married, she wouldn't have targeted her deliberately yesterday.
"You got married young. Your husband must be a man of excellence, right?" NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Penny smiled a little, looking like she liked her husband so much.
"Yeah. He is naturally the best in everyone else's eyes."
Grace was young and didn't leave some leeway.
"So that means he's not the best in your heart?"
Penny smiled but didn't answer.
Orlando, who was sitting by, lowered his head and rubbed the rim of his cup as if he didn't listen to their
conversation.
Grace didn't want to embarrass Penny anymore, and her smile became genuine.
"I see. It's just like that saying about the dream boy, who is out of your range, and the man you own,
right? Your husband is the man you own. You've definitely had a guy whom you've fallen in love with
but couldn't have, haven't you?"
Brian finally chided her, "You have a big mouth. Anyone around you would be annoyed to death by you,
who's such a chatterbox. Perry, I'm sorry. Grace has been spoiled by me."
Penny looked up and smiled frankly at Brian.
"Ms. Franco is such an authentic person."
Penny said nothing then and didn't answer Grace's question, because Grace went on to haunt Orlando.
But Orlando was frostier and much more distant.
After the meal, Penny was ready to head back, and got a call from Haley, who was prevaricating on the
phone. It looked like something was wrong.
"Haley, what's the matter?"
"Penny, Penny, are you coming back?"
Penny intuited that it was again related to Noah, and couldn't help but frown. "Yeah, I'll be back today."
Haley hesitated for a while on the other end of the phone before sighing, "I didn't want to call to trouble
you, but there's nothing I can do about it. Noah got into a fight with a guy and put him in the hospital.
We're all stuck in the house right now and can't get out. There's too many of them..."
Penny was pissed off and let out a laugh. Anyway, Haley was her senior.
"Why did Noah fight? Where is he?"
Haley glanced at Noah who was dejectedly smoking in the corner, and her voice became lower.
"Noah is smoking. Susan's out there and hasn't come back. I can't get hold of Susan. Penny, there's
nothing I can do."
As soon as Haley finished, there was shouting and cursing right outside, and the neighbors gathered
around and watched the chaos ensue.
Haley carefully covered her cell phone in a humble manner.
Penny took a deep breath.
"Haley, just wait till I'm there. I'll be there in about two hours. You don't start a fight with that family. Did
you call the police?"
"Yes, but it was his leader's son that Noah beat up. So..."
A rage came over Penny, and a sneer curled the corners of her mouth.
"Wait until I get back."
Just as she hung up the phone, she heard footsteps behind herself, and out of the corner of her eye,
she saw Orlando walk past her and get into the black car.
His presence was cold.
His presence was frostier than it had ever been before.
