Chapter 6 He Is in Love with Someone Else
Although Penny was surprised, she did not think he would recognize her.
She visited Rex during holidays but barely went to the Fletcher family at other times. Even Orlando had
never seen his wife, so the others would not pay any attention to a marginalized person like her.
Thinking of Orlando's expression, Penny smiled in frustration, "Maybe Mr. Fletcher is dissatisfied with
me."
Colin liked good-looking people regardless of occupation or family background. Facing such a pretty
woman with bright eyes, he unconsciously said in a softer tone, "Don't worry. Your design is artistic.
Although Orlando is doing business, he didn't study finance at the beginning. He had a double major
with different degree types, and the other degree happens to be art. I bet he will appreciate your
design. But he has been in a bad mood recently because of the divorce."
Penny didn't speak, but Kale asked in surprise, "Is he married?"
Colin sighed, "He has long gotten married. I heard he contacted his lawyer as soon as coming back
this time and was in a hurry to get a divorce."
He seldom went back to the Fletcher family after growing up because he liked fooling around with
women outside. He knew that Orlando had listened to his grandfather and gotten married but had
never met his cousin-in-law.
It was the first time Kale had heard about it, so he became interested and said, "I thought he had
bought Royal Green as his matrimonial home. It turns out he had long gotten married. So, does he plan
to live alone?"
Colin beckoned them to sit down and casually said, "It can be considered a matrimonial house.
Orlando doesn't like his wife and was forced to marry her back then. He is in love with someone else.
So, Royal Green should be designed for that woman."
Then, he thoughtfully handed Penny a glass of juice and said, "When he comes here, I'll show him your
design. He will be interested."
Penny took the glass over and politely smiled, "Thank you! If he decided to use my design, I will treat
you to dinner."
She was neither arrogant nor impetuous. Colin appreciated her attitude, so he couldn't help saying, "If
he hires you, I do deserve a dinner with you. Orlando will give you a large amount of design fee. What's
more, working for him will make you famous."
Penny nodded. If she got the order, she would gain both fame and money. If she entered Orlando's
high-society circle, the studio would have a lot of high-quality customers in the future. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
The door of the private room on the other end of the corridor opened. As soon as the tall man with a
frighteningly cold aura walked in, his phone rang.
Seeing Colin's name on the screen, Orlando rejected the call with a frown.
A man in the room was amused to see his gloomy face and asked, "What's wrong? Why is your face so
long? Who offended you?"
The room was large with many people inside. But there was class differentiation in the high-society
circle in Chatville.
Orlando was on the top of the pyramid, so those around him were all the richest and most powerful
people. And the others had moved away as soon as he stepped in.
Randy casually handed him a glass of wine. His fingertips were white, and his facial features were
delicate and gentle. Then, he leisurely said, "Is it because of the divorce? I heard she refused to sign
the divorce agreement."
It was no secret that Orlando had contacted his lawyer and intended to get a divorce. And Rex would
hear about it soon.
Orlando took off the cufflinks and tossed them to the waiter. Then, he casually sat cross-legged on the
sofa, exuding a cold and domineering aura.
"She will sign it. It is a matter of time. She knows better than anyone else why we got married back
then."
His tone was flat because he didn't want to talk more about this matter. And he was unhappy tonight
because of the woman just now instead of his nominal wife. He couldn't figure out why she had acted
so inexperiencedly if she had worked as a prostitute for three years.
The men at the next table happened to be talking about their girlfriends.
Most men had talked about their sex lives in private. Orlando had never paid attention to such topics
before, but he somehow listened to them chat this time.
"So, she pretended to be a virgin? What did you do after you discovered it?"
"What else could I do? We broke up. She had undergone hymen repair surgery many times. If my
friend who works in the hospital hadn't recognized her, I would have married her. She is not pregnant
with my child but deceived me and tried to make me marry her for the baby in her belly. She was
having a pipe dream!"
These dandies did not lack money or time, so they often talked about women.
"Women are not simple. They know what you like and can precisely hunt you. Maybe she is pregnant
with your acquaintance's child. The purer they look, the wilder they used to be."
Orlando suddenly tightened his grip on the glass when the scene of Penny dropping her eyes popped
into his mind. And some fragments of last night also flooded into his head. They were so clear that a
sense of depression welled up in his heart.
Suddenly, Colin called him again and urged him to go to the room downstairs, saying he wanted to talk
to him face to face.
