Chapter 115 Penelope Was Getting Married!
Penelope really didn't welcome Lola, but in front of Lyman, she truly didn't want to argue with her.
Carefully placing the urn on the coffee table, Penelope completely ignored Lola as if she were air.
Penelope ignored her, but Lola didn't get angry. She gracefully walked up to Penelope, "Sister, Lyman is out of danger now, the doctor said, he's about to wake up."
"Mingming, his health had already improved, there was no longer any danger, why, why did he die when he was perfectly fine?!"
Upon hearing Lola's words, Penelope realized something. Her body instantly tensed up, "Lola, it was you, wasn't it?! You killed Mr. Hilliard, didn't you?!"
"Mr. Hilliard was your own brother! He was your blood brother, born of the same mother. How could you do such a cruel thing to him!"
"Yes, it was I who ruined him! I killed my own little brother!" Lola laughed, her eyes gleaming with the triumph of a victor, yet also filled with a ruthless disregard for kinship.
"Penelope, I told you, no one can stand in Lola's way, otherwise, I will destroy anything in my path, be it god or Buddha!"
"I didn't want to harm Lyman, but who made him be bewitched by you and stand in my way! Sister, it wasn't me who killed Lyman, it was you! It was you who caused the discord between us siblings, it was you who forced me to raise the butcher's knife against Lyman!"
"Ha!" Penelope found it extremely hilarious. Lola always had a knack for shifting her own guilt onto others.
She could even harm her own biological mother and younger brother, yet she still had the audacity to play the innocent and pure little white flower. The thickness of her skin was truly unparalleled!
"Penelope, it's all your fault! If it weren't for you, my mother wouldn't have been hurt, and Lyman wouldn't have been either. You harmed them, you harmed my family!"
"Lola, you were absolutely sick!"
"Don't tell me, all the sins you committed were forced by me! Lola, don't tell me, it was me who forced you to ruin my relationship with Zack! Don't tell me, it was me who forced you to kill grandma! And don't even tell me, it was me who forced you to harm Ethan and Corona!"
"Lola, so many people have been killed by you, why don't you just die! Lola, you really deserve to die! If you don't kill yourself, I will definitely kill you!"
Saying this, Penelope casually grabbed the teacup on the table and fiercely threw it at Lola's face.
Lola had been prepared, she quickly dodged and thus avoided Penelope's attack.
She lowered her gaze, looking at Penelope who was panting heavily from just throwing a cup, with a smile full of amusement. "Penelope, with your near-death body, you still want to kill me? You're daydreaming!"
Lola moved forward step by step, suddenly, she bent down, her hand landing on the urn on the coffee table.
Fearing that Lola would damage Lyman's urn, Penelope quickly stood up, ready to snatch the urn and protect it in her arms.
Lola's actions were faster than hers, she quickly grabbed the urn.
"Lola, give me back the urn!"
Penelope quickly circled the coffee table, about to snatch the urn from Lola's hands, but Lola deftly spun around, causing Penelope to miss again.
She took a step back, looking at a nervous Penelope with a smile as beautiful as a blooming flower.
Suddenly, she flung her hand up, and the urn in her hand fell heavily to the ground.
"Mr. Hilliard!"
Penelope's eyes were bloodshot. She rushed over like a madwoman, frantically gathering the ashes scattered on the ground, as if terrified of missing something.
"Oh dear, how did it fall!"
The expression on Lola's face was extremely innocent, "I must have slipped just now!"
"Get out! Lola, get out of here!"
At that time, Penelope was not in the mood to fight with Lola, she just wanted to tidy up the ashes on the ground and guard them well, the big boy whose smile was as warm as the sun.
Lola achieved her goal and didn't linger around Penelope. She strutted out of the apartment's main door, humming a little tune with a smug look on her face.
Fortunately, the urn was made of high-quality Phoebe nanmu wood, so it wasn't damaged when Lola dropped it just now.
However, even so, it took quite a bit of effort for Penelope to gather the scattered ashes and put them back into the urn.
She clutched the urn tightly, almost unable to hold back her tears from rolling down.
She hastily took a breath, not allowing her tears to fall.
However, no matter how much she tried to suppress the strong urge to cry, she still couldn't change the sobbing tone in her voice.
"Mr. Hilliard, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. From now on, I will definitely protect you well."
"When you were alive, it was always you protecting me. Now, it's my turn to protect you. I will be very brave."
Penelope tried hard to pull out a smile, but it looked worse than crying.
She had promised Lyman that she would marry him and become his most beautiful bride. But before he could see her in her wedding dress, she had already turned into a handful of ashes.
The more Penelope thought about it, the sadder she became. But even though he had left, her promise to him would not change.
Even if dead, she would still marry him.
Penelope had already made her plans for the future, to get married, which required a ring.
Back then, amidst the beautiful flowers, he knelt on one knee, asking her to be his girlfriend.
This time, she was going to propose to him.
She would first go to buy the ring and wedding dress, then, she would seek revenge on Lola. After she had taken her revenge, she would dress up in her finery and go to the underworld to find him.
Having made up her mind, Penelope took her bank card and went out to buy a diamond ring and a wedding dress.
After buying the ring and wedding dress, she also had to buy sulfuric acid.
This sulfuric acid, it was given to Lola as a reward.
If she still had energy left, she would have treated Linda to a bottle as well.
The cold wind, still blowing with unrestrained harshness, was for the first time perceived by Penelope as having some benefits. At the very least, when the cool breeze blew, her mind became exceptionally clear.
For every step she was about to take, she had an incredibly clear plan.
She still had 160 thousand dollars in her hands, originally, this money was intended for Ethan's surgery. After Ethan was gone, she planned to leave the money to Corona.
It was just fate playing tricks, Corona was gone too.
In the world at that time, she had no parents, no husband, no friends, and no children. She was all alone, saving money without spending it. To feed dogs?!
So, she could splurge this 160 thousand dollars, on rings, wedding dresses, she wanted to buy the best.
Penelope didn't like Western-style wedding dresses, she preferred Goldwaldian-style bridal gowns, so she went to a branch store in the city.
Wonder was a brand founded by Cornelia in her youth, along with Chelsea and Wesley Ortiz. Wonder primarily featured Goldwald style, as well as a bridal collection. Penelope particularly loved Wonder's designs. To wear Wonder's clothes on her wedding day was a dream she had when she was young.
Once, this dream was for Zackary, now, it's only for Lyman.
It could be considered a case of enemies often crossing each other's paths. As soon as Penelope entered this quaint shop, she saw Zackary and Lola.
There were also Kemp and Pennie.
