    Chapter 90 An Unweed Guest


    Penny contemted for a moment and decided to make a call.


    “Mr. Fletcher, once the design is finalized, I will begin working on the construction ns. Are you sure


    you don''t need to involve anyone else in this decision-making process?”


    She continued, "I heard from Mr. Levine that this house is designed for your loved one. Shouldn''t you


    consider seeking her opinion as well?”


    Ondo remained silent for two seconds before speaking in a deep voice, "No need."


    Penny was taken aback, wondering if the rumors were true, that Ondo had been waiting for Angie all


    these years.


    But then she recalled the night they had been intimate, when Ondo had called out Angie''s name.


    It seemed that there were indeed some misunderstandings between them, just as the rumors had


    hinted.


    Rather than ying the role of a wife, Penny felt more like a spectator to theirplicated


    rtionship.


    “Alright then. If I need to reach you in the future, I''ll give you a call,” she said, ending the conversation


    and intending to rest.


    However, she heard a knock on the door, and it was Anika.


    "Ms. Stuart, Rex called me at noon and informed me that he will be arriving tomorrow evening at six.


    He wishes for you and Mr. Fletcher to pick him up together."


    Penny''s heart skipped a beat. Are they really going to be together?


    She even considered finding an excuse to avoid the situation.


    But then she remembered that Rex was the person who cared for her the most, treating her like a


    beloved granddaughter over the past few years.


    With a deep breath, she responded, "OK."


    Penny spected that Rex must have called their home because there was no reception in the tunnel


    when she was driving.


    He was likely on the ne by now.


    Anyway, she knew she had to mentally prepare herself for the inevitable and embarrassing encounter


    with Ondo.

    The next morning, Penny got ready and went downstairs, only to find the lobby surprisingly quiet.


    As she looked up, she spotted Keely seated on the couch.


    There was a cup of tea in front of Keely, indicating that she had been here for a while.


    Penny had just returned from Prodale County yesterday and nned to have a good sleep, but she


    had been caught off now.


    Keely snorted when seeing Penny.


    “It''s no surprise that you''re still sleeping at this hour while Ondo has already held three meetings,


    since you came from a small family,” Keely remarked, in a somewhat mocking tone.


    Penny couldn''t help but find it amusing.


    Keely disliked her, so she always looked for faults in her.


    Now, with Rex''s impending return, Keely worried that Ondo mighte to stay with Penny at Hills


    Vi. And that was why she came early in the morning to warn Penny.


    “I have arranged for Ondo''s clothes to be sent over, and they have been ced in the bedroom. You


    have already moved out from there,” Keely stated coldly.


    Penny forced a smile and gestured to Anika to continue with her tasks, hoping to avoid any further


    Anika let out a sigh and grabbed a towel to wipe down the table and chairs.


    Just then, Niko entered and stayed on the front step due to the rain this morning, waiting for someone


    to wipe its paws.


    Keely''s gaze sharpened when she noticed Niko. “Didn''t I say to get rid of this dog?”


    “Ms. Moran, Mr. Fletcher hasn''t arrived yet. And if he doese, he won''t see Niko,” Penny responded


    calmly.


    "That doesn''t work! Ondo feels ufortable when he sees a dog!" Keely retorted sharply.


    Taking a deep breath, Penny maintained aposed smile.


    "Alright, I''ll ask someone to send Niko away. Is there anything else you need me to do, Ms. Moran?"

    A coldness flickered across Keely''s face. “I didn''te alone. I have also invited your parents, and


    they should be here soon.”


    Penny frowned, slightly taken aback.


    Cason and Helen?


    It appeared that Keely not only intended to criticize her but also aimed to involve her family.


    Penny grew angry and anxious.


    If she had any improper thoughts about Ondo, then she would ept the me.


    However, the truth was that she didn''t like Ondo at all and had never considered continuing their


    marriage in the future.


    Their union had always been a transaction, and Penny was well aware of that fact.


    However, Keely constantly humiliated her centered around this issue.


    Keely was narrow-minded.


    Penny pursed her lips, knowing that arguing with Keely at this moment would only make things worse.


    Soon after, Cason and Helen arrived, as Keely had mentioned.


    They were quite surprised and ttered as it was the first time they hade to Penny and Ondo''s


    marital home.


    Keely, with her haughty demeanor, did not bother to stand up and wee them. Instead, she raised


    her chin and coolly stated, "Have a seat."


    It was Cason who broke the peaceful silence. After all, he vividly knew that the Stuart family had


    always been supported by the Fletcher family. So, they should treat Ondo''s mother politely.


    "Mrs. Moran, why did you call us here today?" he inquired.


    Keely''s gaze scanned all three of them and then she took out a contract from her bag.


    "Sign this contract."


    She exined, "I know that the Stuart family will soon undergo a second round of financing. And the


    Fletcher family can help you. As long as Penny divorces Ondo and leaves with nothing, we will agree


    to provide the necessary financing to you."


    Cason turned pale. "What has Penny done wrong?"
