Pampered by My Ex-husband (Penny and Orlando) novel Chapter 152

Chapter 152 It Wasn't Affection

Penny had been perplexed about Lana's attitude towards her. She had thought they had gotten along well, but Lana had always liked to gossip in front of Cason.

Cason had often gotten angry at her when Lana inadvertently mentioned something about her.

Their relationship seemed good because Lana had called her sister affectionately every time as if they were genuinely intimate sisters.

Helen's dislike for her was apparent, but Lana's true feelings for her had been hidden deep inside.

At this moment, Penny finally realized that Lana couldn't possibly like her because she had occupied the position of Orlando's wife.

When she thought about what had happened before, she could see clearly why Lana went outside even when she was sick.

Hearing Lana walk away, Penny slowly straightened up. She could feel Orlando's warm breath, and the distance between them instantly became very close.

She raised her head while he lowered his head, and the tips of their noses almost touched.

She quickly let go of him and pretended to touch her forehead as if she had leaned against him just because she suddenly felt unwell.

Orlando narrowed his eyes and felt slightly disappointed as she left his arms, but he quickly regained his composure.

Penny glanced outside and saw that the Stuart family's car had already left, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as she left the car, she heard her cell phone ringing. It was Cason.

There was a trace of surprise in her eyes. She suppressed the trembling of her fingertips due to discomfort and answered it.

Cason said on the other end of the phone, "Penny, the second round of financing has succeeded. The Fletcher family has reinvested. I am thinking of celebrating my discharge from the hospital. Why don't you invite Orlando to dinner at home, by the way? I will ask Helen to prepare a nice dinner. We should thank him properly. "

Cason said he was inviting Orlando to dinner to thank him but was trying to continue flattering the Fletcher family.

This realization made Penny feel sick to her stomach. But when she thought that Cason now had terminal liver cancer and only had another year to live, she couldn't help feeling helpless.

"Dad, who discharged you from the hospital?"

"I wanted to be discharged from the hospital myself, Penny. You don't have to worry about my health." Cason's face was full of joy because the financing was successful.
