Penny's breath hitched, and when she touched Arthur's sharp eyes, she felt her heart jumping out of her chest.
She tried desperately to control her heartbeat, "It's nothing Arthur, don't think too much about it, Alisha has been my BFF for years, we're fine. So what, I'll go see her off."
Fortunately, she and Alisha did not tell that secret in the house just now.
Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be in trouble.
Penny hurriedly crossed over Arthur and headed down.
Arthur spoke in a cold voice, "Penny, my second brother sent word, I hope you'll behave yourself."
Penny is on her feet and quickly descends the stairs.
Only when she had sent Alisha away did she wipe her sweat, still looking nervous.
After half a lifetime of smooth sailing, she had a feeling that her good times were coming to an end!
Summer Riley has been feeling like someone has been following her for the past few days.
That feeling of being spied on brought back the bad memories she once had.
She cautioned herself not to think about it and pretended to go to and from work in a calm manner.
However, her heart suddenly sank when she saw Joshua Riley suddenly appearing in front of the office.
How did he show up!
Is it possible that he is following himself these days?
Summer looked steadily at Joshua, who was walking toward him, and clasped his right hand tightly around his left arm, his face as pale as paper.
She wanted to turn and run away, but her feet were like roots, unable to move half a step.
Joshua looked Summer up and down and smiled, "Summer, good boy, after all these years, did you miss me? Uncle can miss you very much!"
Summer's lips were trembling, and a fine sweat seeped from her forehead.
The dirty scene kept coming to mind.
Those memories that one tries so hard to forget keep replaying like old movies.
She heard men laughing and heard herself crying and yelling.
The man covered her mouth and touched his body with those dirty hands, leaving a trail of marks
"Get away, you stay away! Get away!"
Summer slammed her bag hard at Joshua, then finally took a step away and fled.
It's all in the past. It was just a dream.
Don't even think about it!
