Allison thought: Lucian was already engaged to Penelope, and he was always so sweet to her, a stark contrast to how he treated me. All his tenderness was for Penelope, and Penelope was even pregnant now. But if he truly loved Penelope, how could he end up in bed with me?

“You’re her fiancé, and you’re supposed to marry her.”

Heaning this, Lucian seemed to lose interest. He stood up, and she quickly closed her eyes, feeling her ears burning. Upon seeing this. Lucian chuckled, opened his wardrobe and changed into a new set of clothes.

“Allison, you know, rich folks have their way of life, and poor folks have theirs. Everyone has to put up with some shit.”

Besides, it wasn’t even certain if the child in Penelope’s belly was his. The Lindberg family was very strict about lineage. Until Penelope had given birth, he wouldn’t marry her.

Whether he would marry Penelope remained a big question mark.

That night, Penelope showed up at his hotel room. It certainly wasn’t a coincidence, and it wasn’t a birthday party for a friend either. He didn’t want to expose the truth because he owed Penelope for saving him.

He didn’t want Penelope to be linked with George Lindberg.

But if Penelope and George were in cahoots, he would not let it slide.
