Chapter 197 Their Relationship Would Break Down
As soon as the door was closed, Penny sat down on the sofa.
Nancy made difficulties for her, which exhausted her mentally. Now seeing Orlando's back covered in
wounds, she was even more upset.
She wondered when this terrible lie would finally come to an end.
She had to be on edge all the time.
*
Because Orlando couldn't lie down due to his wounds on the back, he decided to work the whole night.
When he left the room in the middle of the night, he saw Penny leaning against the sofa and looking
very good.
He frowned. The one-night stand he had with her had gone. After tonight, they had to keep their
distance.
Nancy was right. If Rex found out about her existence, it wouldn't just be a matter of causing trouble for
the studio.
He stood in front of the coffee table, watching her sleeping face.
Her face was small, and when she closed her eyes, her coldness disappeared and she looked good
and delicate.
When she was just talking to her husband on the phone just now, her face overflowed with happiness.
It seemed that Randy had misunderstood before. She had expressed her sincere feelings for her
husband several times. What happened that night left nothing in her mind.
After all, she and her husband had countless nights like that.
Orlando's breathing was quick and uneven, and he tried to cover it up. So he picked up the glass of
water on the table and took a sip of cold water.
But after drinking it, he realized that it was the cup she had used with a faint pink lipstick mark on its
edge.
He placed the cup down, his brows furrowed, and walked into his room without looking back.
When Penny woke up the next morning, she found him sitting on the opposite sofa.
She quickly rubbed her eyes, sat up straight, and glanced at the clock hanging on the wall. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
It was only six o'clock. Did he always wake up this early on his day off?
"Mr. Fletcher?"
Her voice still gentle from just waking up.
Orlando didn't look at her and simply nodded, folding up his documents.
Penny hurriedly went to the bathroom to freshen up. When she came out, she asked in a low voice,
"Mr. Fletcher, what would you like for breakfast? I'll bring it up for you. Also, are your wounds infected?
Let's go to the hospital today."
Orlando opened another file and, upon hearing her words, he simply said, "As you please."
Penny opened the door and then went downstairs.
But when she arrived at the hotel's buffet restaurant, she immediately spotted Lana, who had been
waiting there earlier.
Penny raised her eyebrows and her eyes turned cold.
Lana hadn't expected to see Penny here, and a hint of awkwardness flashed in her eyes.
"Penny, how could you..."
How could Penny appear at the hotel where Orlando was staying?
Lana often staked out places where Orlando frequented, hoping to catch a glimpse of him.
She always believed that her sincerity could move Orlando.
But now, she saw Penny.
Could it be that she was with Orlando again?
A coldness flashed in her eyes, but in an instant, it turned into a weak, sweet smile.
"Penny, were you also at the hotel last night?"
Ever since Penny found out about Lana's feelings for Orlando, she had realized that Lana was two-
faced.
"Yes."
Lana's hand on the side tightened instantly. It should only be a coincidence that they were at the same
hotel. They couldn't sleep together again.
After all, Orlando had warned the Stuart family. Penny had high self-esteem. After knowing Orlando
treated her family like that, she shouldn't want to have any further involvement with him.
Besides, she couldn't have forgotten that man.
Lana tried her best not to show her emotions. Little did she know that her thoughts had already been
exposed.
"Penny, Mr. Fletcher said some really harsh words to Dad. Dad's health has worsened today. Why don't
you go back and see him? That day, Dad called Old Mr. Fletcher, but Old Mr. Fletcher insisted on
having Mr. Fletcher come over. Mr. Fletcher seemed unhappy and had a small argument with Dad."
Lana was certain that Penny would never ask Orlando about it.
In addition, Penny's relationship with Cason was already on the verge of collapse. She couldn't
communicate with Cason anymore after knowing he had called Rex.
A hint of shallow self-satisfaction flashed in Lana's eyes.
With just a few words from her, the relationship between Penny and Cason would break down.
