Chapter 354
Alexander and Judith always taught Penny not to misuse her power.
Penny, in her efforts to fit in with the Nicholas family, had always been obedient and well–behaved.
But this time, Penny just couldn’t hold back any longer.
She secretly exercised some of her influence, painstakingly gathering information about a person named Emma.
The file on Emma was extensive, but Penny focused only on the parts that interested her.
As she delved into the information, her eyes suddenly sparkled with revelation.
Suddenly, Penny’s mind was buzzing with a flurry of thoughts.
‘Unbelievable! So that was it!
‘Did Eason know about Emma’s situation?
‘How could he possibly know!
‘Emma would never share such things with Eason.
‘If I showed these documents to Eason, would he still choose to be with Emma?”
Thinking about this, Penny was overtaken by a rush of excitement, trembling with the implications.
She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
Then, Penny compiled the crucial information and anonymously sent it to Eason’s email.
Penny was certain that after reading this, Eason would be furious.
This would naturally lead to a split between him and Emma.
Penny waited from dawn till dusk, and then from nightfall to the next day.
But Eason never came home.
“Was he still with Emma?
“Didn’t he care about this at all?
‘No, that couldn’t be.
‘Eason must have been too busy to check his email.
‘Maybe I needed to be more patient.

However, Penny was growing restless. She sent a trivial email from her own account and then messaged Eason: [Eason, I sent you something really fun. Check your email.]
Eason, having just lulled Emma to sleep, saw Penny’s message.
Casually, he opened his email, which he hadn’t logged into for days.
He first opened an email from Penny.
There were some jokes Penny had found online.
Eason raised an eyebrow, feeling a bit off.
‘Penny seemed strange.
‘She wasn’t the type to share such lame jokes.
‘Even if she did want to share, she could have just sent me messages on WhatsApp.
could have just sent me messages on WhatsApp.
‘Why make me check my email?
Eason pondered for a moment.
He closed Penny’s email and began sifting through his inbox.
Soon, he stumbled upon an anonymous email.
Eason opened it.
At first glance, he furrowed his brows slightly.
The email was filled with information about Emma.
Apart from her severe depression, which he already knew, it detailed the reasons behind it.
Emma had dated a senior in college.
But, that guy heartlessly dumped her.
Soon after, Emma’s mental state deteriorated, leading to depression.
The email described in detail how much Emma loved that guy, and her selfless devotion to him..
As Eason read, a sense of discomfort grew inside him.
It was clear that Emma’s love was one–sided,
The guy, however, was indifferent and even mocked her after breaking up.
His demeaning and mocking words were a significant factor in her breakdown.

Eason glanced at the sleeping Emma.
Somehow, he felt a twinge of pain and anger.
‘Emma didn’t do anything wrong. She just had a normal relationship, but ended up being unfairly dragged through the mud
The email even included a photo of that guy.
Eason studied the face intently, committing every detail to memory.
He vowed never to let him cross paths with this guy.
Just then, another message from Penny popped up: [Eason, did you see the jokes? Fun, right?]
Eason stared at the message, lost in a deep silence.
‘Penny deliberately prompted me to check my email.
‘On scanning my inbox, I stumbled upon an intriguing email.
“Was this merely a coincidence?
‘Or something else?
“Did the email come from Penny herself?
“If yes, this meant Penny had been secretly digging into Emma’s background.
“Why would she do such a thing?
“What right did she have to do such a thing?
“And more importantly, what was her motive?‘
In Eason’s mind, Penny had always been a sweet and adorable younger sister.
However, this incident led him to question her intentions.
[Eason?] Penny sent another tentative message.
Narrowing his eyes, Eason replied, I saw them, pretty funny.]
Penny anxiously stared at her phone, waiting for Eason’s next words.
But after that message, Eason went silent.
Penny was frantic.
‘Did he actually see that email?

“Was he aware that Emma not only suffered from depression but had also been passionately in love with another man?
“If Eason knew all this, he couldn’t possibly remain so calm.
“Could it be he hadn’t seen it yet?
Penny was troubled.
‘If I reminded him again, would it be too obvious?
‘But what if Eason never saw it?‘
Torn, she finally sent a probing message: [Eason, am I the only one who sends you such silly emails? Do you get others like this in your inbox?]
‘This would surely prompt Eason to check his other emails, leading him to discover the crucial one.
Eason squinted his eyes.
Initially, he wasn’t sure who the anonymous sender was.
However, Penny’s question made it crystal clear.
Deep down, Eason felt a tinge of disappointment.
“What was Penny up to?
‘Snooping into someone’s private affairs, she cleverly led me to see for myself.
Was this the same innocent and kind–hearted sister I remembered?
Eason pursed his lips.
He didn’t confront Penny. Instead, he replied, [I don’t think so. I’ve been swamped lately, no time to check my emails.]
He hoped Penny would get the message: enough is enough!
Penny was stunned by Eason’s response.
1 had sent all the information, but Eason just wouldn’t look at it.
“If I pushed any further, it would be too obvious.
‘The email issue had to be let go.“‘
Penny bit her lip, a flash of coldness in her eyes.
‘No, I couldn’t let go of the information I had worked so hard to uncover.‘
A vicious idea formed in Penny’s mind.
