Chapter 354


    Although Bryson wasn''t as capable or bright as his younger brother, he understood the situation after


    seeing how things had unfolded. It wasn''t an ident that he had lost biological daughter—it was a


    n devised by Penny to rece their daughter with her childhood sweetheart''s child.


    The reason Penny would voluntarily give her own daughter away and rece her was because she


    had been fooled by her bodyguard, Walter Hudson. Walter had bribed Penny''s doctor and gotten him to


    lie to her about her daughter being a jinx who would bring misfortunes to the people around her. After


    hearing what the doctor said, Penny hired someone to take her own daughter away. Subsequently, she


    brought Walter''s daughter back to their house.


    All these years, Penny wasn''t close to her sons but was exceptionally fond of Ava. Bryson used to think


    that it was because Penny was thankful toward Ava as her appearance had helped save his mother-in-


    law''s life. Thus, she favored Ava a lot.


    But now, he realized that he had gotten it all wrong. The reason Penny was so fond of Ava was


    because Penny and Walter were lovers before she got married to him. Walter was the one who Penny


    truly loved; she saw his daughter as her own and loved Walter''s daughter more than she loved her own


    sons.


    "What do you see me as? Huh?" He tightened his grip around her neck. His eyes were bloodshot, and


    his face was contorted with anger. "You shouldn''t have married me if you loved Walter that much. After


    marrying me, you would rather give our daughter away and bring your lover''s daughter back while


    letting me raise her as my own. How could there be such a vicious and wicked woman?"


    If such a scandal became known to the public, Bryson would be the biggestughing stock of


    Dusktown. After his wife lost their biological daughter, she brought her lover''s daughter home as he


    foolishly raised the child as his own. On top of that, he had given up on looking for his biological


    daughter because of Ava. His daughter was now somewhere outside, and he didn''t know whether she


    was dead or alive.


    The thought of it made him feel so pathetic that he just wanted to strangle her to death. Noticing that


    something wasn''t right, both his sons and Brandon immediately stepped forward and dragged him


    away. Penny, who almost passed out from being strangled, fell to the ground and coughed as she


    touched her neck. At one point, Penny felt that Bryson would actually strangle her to death. Although


    he wasn''t as capable as Brandon, he had a gentle temperament and was a nice guy. However, she


    now realized that even someone as honest as Bryson would lose control and turn into a monster if


    someone crossed the line.


    She slumped on the floor, feeling terrified. What should I do? How did it happen? Everything was done


    seamlessly back then, so how has everything been dug up? Did Walter really fool me? she thought to


    herself. She couldn''t believe that Walter, who loved her so much and obeyed her every word, would lie


    to her.


    If not for both his sons and younger brother, Bryson would have strangled her to death as he couldn''t


    afford to embarrass himself. There wouldn''t have been someone as pathetic as him in Dusktown. If the


    matter was made known to the public, he would be aughing stock and a huge embarrassment.


    He was so enraged that he tried to take deep breaths to calm himself down. After a while, he shut his


    eyes and kneeled before Eddie. "Dad, I''m sorry for embarrassing the family!"


    The whole Penham Family would be aughing stock if this scandal was revealed to the public.


    Meanwhile, Eddie was so exasperated that his face was as pale as a sheet, and his limbs were numb


    while he had a migraine.

    When he was younger, he got hurt on the battlefield, which had affected his health during his old age.


    However, he was able to live until today as he could afford the best healthcare. However, the doctor


    said that he should remain calm at all times and not get too anxious. Otherwise, his illness would


    rpse with serious consequences.


    Because of that, his temperament had be milder as he got older; Eddie was even able to calm


    himself down when he encountered some issues so that he wouldn''t get mad easily.


    However, it was impossible to do so today after finding out that his eldest daughter-inw, whom he


    had already looked down on, switched his granddaughter at birth with her lover''s daughter right in


    under his eyes without him realizing. All these years, he had allowed Ava to cause trouble within the


    Penham Family.


    If the incident got out, the Penham Family would be the talk of the town and would beughed at. With


    that, he wouldn''t be able to uphold his integrity in hister years which would bring him


    embarrassment. The thought of it made his limbs tremble, and it gave him a terrible migraine. Noticing


    that, Brandon immediately got someone to call Drew over.


    Drew was a doctor who was knowledgeable in both Western and traditional medicine. He prescribed


    two Antihypertensive drugs to Eddie and massaged his acupuncture points while advising him, "Mr.


    Penham, nothing is more important than your health. Since you have been hurt before, you''ll need to


    recuperate in order to live a long life. You shouldn''t get yourself worked up as it is harmful for your


    health!"


    Upon hearing what Drew said, a thought suddenly shed across Jennifer''s mind.


    She then looked at Sebastian and asked politely, "Sebastian, do you have a family doctor named Dr.


    Leigh Shefford?


    "Yes," he answered with a smile.


    "Frank mentioned that Dr. Shefford is a skillful doctor, and he holds her work in high regard. I was


    wondering if we could invite her over to treat my father''s illness?"


    If she managed to get Dr. Shefford over to treat Eddie, she could try to persuade her to treat her


    daughter as she couldn''t ept the fact that Luna would only live until her thirties. She would even get


    on her knees and beg Leigh in order to get her to treat her daughter''s illness.


    Brandon realized his wife''s intention and chimed in, "Sebastian, Dr. Shefford is a very skilled doctor


    who helped to save my daughter''s life. We are all very thankful for her, and we would like to thank you


    for recognizing and recruiting such talent; it was only through you that we were able to meet Dr.


    Shefford, who managed to save our daughter''s life. If she could treat my father and daughter, the


    Penham Family would be grateful toward you, and we will repay you generously for your kindness in


    future!"


    "If Dr. Shefford is willing to treat my father and daughter, the Penham Family would be indebted to you,


    and we will definitely repay you for your generosity in future!"


    Since Brandon was an outstanding man within the Penham Family, Eddie''s resources and connections


    were handled by him; he would eventually seed Eddie, which would give him a bright future. The


    Penham Family was also a big family with most of them being leaders and schrs in their respective


    fields who held high statuses.


    It was not a bad thing to be indebted by the Penham Family. On top of that, since both the Hart Family


    and Penham Family had close ties, he wouldn''t have rejected their request even if they didn''t promise


    to give him anything in return. However…


    Sebastian looked over at Madeline who was sitting next to him and said, "Although Dr. Shefford is our


    family doctor, she is actually my wife''s best friend who works at my wife''s office. If both of you would


    like to get Dr. Shefford over to treat Eddie and your daughter, I''ll need to seek permission from my


    wife."
