Chapter 69
Seeing this, Penny rushed over to stop Lucy.
However, before she could reach out, Lucy’s hand was already grabbed by Laura.
Because her hand was being restrained, Lucy subconsciously yelled, “Let go of me!”
“Lucy, calm yourself down.”
It was only until she heard Laura’s voice that Lucy calmed down a little..
She slowly lowered her hand, then looked at Laura, full of confusion. “Laura, how come you grabbed me?”
“Because I don’t want you to make a mistake,” Laura said earnestly.
“What mistake can I make? Grandpa is gone now, and she has long since lost her support, can’t I beat her?”
Laura nodded. “Well, you just can’t.”
“Why? Laura, are you even helping her?” Lucy stamped her foot in anger.
Laura sighed deeply, then spoke, “Lucy, you know that your brother is married, right?”
“I know, what does it have to do with her?”
Halfway through the sentence, Lucy was suddenly stunned, looked at Laura in astonishment, and asked, “Could she be the…… my brother’s wife?”
“Well, it’s her.”
Hearing the answer, Lucy instantly had a feeling that she was dead inside.
It was her.
It was also her.
It was impossible to get rid of this woman.
Why was she everywhere? And everything was her business?
“Laura Hill, this joke isn’t funny at all, don’t lie to me, okay?”
“Lucy, I know it’s difficult for you to accept it right now, but it’s all true.”
The drama between these two people was too much for Jenny to watch.
“Penny, let’s go,” Jenny spoke.
Laura immediately grabbed Jenny’s wrist. Sitting in the wheelchair, she raised her head and looked at Jenny with her stern eyes, full of challenge. “Wait, don’t you want to know what I came here for today?”
“I don’t want to, it’s none of my business.” Said quickly by Jenny.
Smiling, Laura spoke again, full of provocation, “I’m here to pick a ring today.”
“Is that so? What kind of ring?” Jenny asked deliberately.
“Jenny, you’re pretending, aren’t you? Obviously, it’s a wedding ring.”
“I see, then congratulations to you.”
When Laura looked at Jenny’s smiling face, she immediately squeezed her hands tightly. At this moment, she could not wait to rush straight up and tear the fake smile off Jenny’s face so that she could reveal
that painful and distorted look.
Jenny, she was definitely faking it.
She must be faking it.
Laura couldn’t believe Jenny could be so calm with what she just said.
“Jenny, do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand, if I’m getting married, then the groom can only be one person, and that’s Barret. I don’t believe you don’t know that,” Laura looked provocative. Penny had been standing by the side listening, and she had no intention to interfere because she believed that Jenny definitely had the ability to handle this matter and defend herself.
When Jenny was still little, she had met many people who were even more difficult to deal with than this, but every time, she was able to handle it. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Practice made perfect.
But Jenny was pregnant now, and she and Penny had been shopping at the mall for a rather long time today. So, Penny didn’t want Jenny to tire herself out, and she decided to step in and quickly settle this matter with these two noisy women.
She walked to the counter and gave a few instructions to the shop assistant.
Soon, the shop assistant brought over a chair.
Penny walked over and took Jenny by the hand, settling her in the chair to sit and rest while leaning down and saying, “Leave it to me, you still have a baby inside you, it’s not good for you to get exhausted or angry.”
“Okay, thank you, Penny.” Jenny nodded.
She naturally had complete trust in Penny.
Soon, Penny walked toward Laura.
Laura was in a wheelchair, and it made her a bit lower than others, which pained her to think of this every time. Lucy was a small person, making her have no advantage in height.
Penny was born to be a model. She was tall, not to mention her slender and long legs, which were like a natural turn-on for men.
She stepped on her ten-centimetre-high heels, with her sunglasses on, and walked towards Laura in an imposing manner, then stopped beside her and asked in a condescending manner, “Are you Laura Hill?”
“I am.”
Faced with Penny, Laura still tried to calm herself down.
“Oh……?” Penny deliberately trailed off with a slightly upturned tone.
She narrowed her eyes, pushed the sunglasses on her nose, and suddenly, a laugh spilt out of her mouth. “Then I’m surprised by Barret’s taste, letting go of a pretty like Jenny, and instead marrying a woman in a wheelchair.”
With this, Laura bit her lips, and her face instantly turned pale.
When Jenny was talking to Laura earlier on, she wasn’t being too harsh, for the sake of Barret Smith.
But it wasn’t the case for Penny. She didn’t hold back at all for Laura.
“Who are you? There’s no need to speak like this, right?” Laura looked at her with fury in her eyes.
“It doesn’t matter who I am.” Penny gazed at Laura’s legs again. “You think this is harsh? I’m just getting started!”
“You’re in a wheelchair, and I’m very curious, what are you going to do with your daily chores? Can you still take 10 01 care of yourself? Do you need a 24-hour nanny to take care of you? Do you think you can take care of a man like.
Barret Smith when you need a nanny for yourself like this?”
Laura clenched her fist so tightly that it was almost bleeding
She glared angrily at Penny as if her eye globes were about to pop out.
“Oh, by the way, in your situation, your legs can no longer move, if you really get married to Barret, can you still perform in bed and be a responsible wife?”
“Also, can you give birth to children? For the Smith family, do you think they would be happy with a hen that can’t lay eggs and could live without an heir?”
Penny’s words, word by word, were like a sharp blade, ruthlessly plunging into Laura’s chest.
And the pain was beyond measurable.
Penny was a pro at this.
If Laura hadn’t desperately held back from her emotion, she would have rushed up and directly torn Penny’s mouth apart without a doubt.
Looking at Laura’s painful, struggling face, Penny widened her brows with a smile. If she had been in the past, she would never have been able to say such vicious words.
Thanks to her previous acting as a young daughter-in-law who had been wronged and bullied some time ago,
Penny had learned the words she had just said against Laura from her mother-in-law in the drama.
Unexpectedly, it had come in handy.
“Who the hell are you?” Laura gritted her teeth and glared at Penny.
How vicious those words were, making her heart still drip blood and hurt like hell even now.
Naturally, Penny would not answer her question. She turned around and was just about to walk toward Jenny. Suddenly, Lucy rushed out from behind Laura, marching frantically towards Jenny, cursing as she did so. “You bitch, Laura and my brother are made for each other. You will not take my brother away! I will kill you!”
