Pampered by My Ex-husband (Penny and Orlando)

Chapter 171 Being Too Innocent Could Lead to Trouble

Chapter 171 Being Too Innocent Could Lead to Trouble

Penny invited Abbey into the house and poured her a glass of water out of courtesy.

Abbey had visited her house with Colin last time, but this time, she found the house looked different

after being decorated by Penny. Besides that, Niko was sitting not far away and wagging its tail from

time to time, looking very obedient.

Abbey liked Niko very much. Before chatting with Penny, she even came back to her place to get some

jerky for Niko to chew on.

"Perry, you know Colin comes from a wealthy family, right? When I just established a relationship with

him, many people said he would dump me soon. After all, I was just a receptionist and I got to know

him after working in the Fletcher Group for several days."

It should be the time when Orlando forced Colin to work at the Fletcher Group to gain some

experience.

He was still in the mood to flirt with women even in that predicament.

Penny once saw it when Colin's ex came to beg him not to separate. That girl was a glamorous beauty,

while Abbey was more of a delicate type. Apparently, Colin's taste had changed so quickly.

Moreover, Colin had been coming to places of entertainment for years, so he probably had seen

beauties of all kinds. It was normal for Abbey to feel insecure.

"I also heard that his mother disliked women around him. I once saw her. She had a strong aura."

Women were naturally sensitive in this aspect. Abbey quickly noticed that it was not easy to get along

with Colin's mother and that Ms. Fletcher was very strict with Colin.

It was said that Colin had broken up with several girlfriends because of his mother. However, those ex-

girlfriends were not good girls.

Penny wasn't interested in other people's gossip. But since she was now a friend in Abbey's eyes and

the latter wanted to confide in her, she didn't dare to refuse her so bluntly or cruelly.

"In fact, Ms. Fletcher is very easygoing. But probably because of Colin's previous girlfriends, she's

formed a fixed impression, thinking that girls around Mr. Levine are all bad girls. As long as she learns

that you're a good girl, she won't have any objection about your relationship with Mr. Levine."

Abbey didn't doubt anything when hearing Penny address Colin as "Mr. Levine" again and again. After

all, Penny was an interior designer and Colin once told her that he would entrust her to design his

houses.

Besides, Abbey had already assumed that Penny was Colin's friend, so she trusted her even more.

Moreover, Penny was Orlando's interior designer. Considering that Orlando had just returned to the

country recently, probably Penny got to know Orlando in such a short time because of her good

relationship with Colin.

And she was married, which meant that she wouldn't pose a threat to her.

Although Colin was a playboy, he would not mess with other people's wives.

Noticing that Abbey was lost in her thoughts, Penny continued to comfort her.

"Colin's mother is also a woman, so she won't be too harsh on other women."

Abbey was completely reassured as Penny, Colin's friend, said so.

She was younger than Penny and was only in her early twenties. Normally, girls at her age were still

studying at universities.

But she started working early, which suggested that her family wasn't rich.

It would be a good thing if she could be with Colin.

After sending Abbey away, Penny sat alone in the room and breathed a sigh of relief.

Her encounter with Abbey was just a minor episode. And she was still thinking about that embarrassing

scene.

Luckily, she at least got the photo. Moreover, it was a very atmospheric one. For an artist, getting good

material was worth a moment of embarrassment.

Anyway, Orlando didn't care about her at all.

Penny immediately started painting, using only black and white. Referring to the photo on her phone,

she painted the scene she shot a while ago.

Orlando was born with an imposing aura. Coupled with the atmosphere, he looked like a nobleman in

the night in the picture.

It took less than an hour for Penny to finish the painting. After that, she put it beside the floor-to-ceiling

window for drying. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

When she was about to order some late-night snacks, Abbey came over with her homemade snacks.

She said she was very grateful to her and thus brought them to her.

"Perry, I made them light. I know you're busy and often forget to eat. Such a habit may cause stomach

problems. Have a try?"

Abbey didn't have any bad intentions and was very simple-minded. But sometimes, being too innocent

could lead to trouble.

For example, when she came to feed Niko, she saw the painting before the floor-to-ceiling window.

Knowing that it was painted by Penny, she took a photo with her phone.

She hadn't expected Penny, an interior designer, to be so good at portraying people.

As she'd just established a relationship with Colin, she had a strong desire to share. Therefore, she

immediately sent the photo to Colin.
