Pampered by My Ex-husband (Penny and Orlando) novel Chapter 181

Chapter 181 The Absurd Drama 

But he couldn't decide what Nancy would do. Colin contemplated how to prevent Abbey from being present the next day. 

Abbey, coming from a humble background, always displayed caution and sensitivity around him. 

Colin racked his brain but failed to come up with a good solution. 

Before he knew it, the next day arrived. 

Penny woke up from the couch. Her fever had subsided but her throat still felt uncomfortable. 

As she stood up to pour herself a cup of warm water, she couldn't help but reflect on the events of the previous night, letting out a sigh. 

Was misfortune destined to follow her this year? 

Then she thought about Nancy and realized that she had to visit her today. 

But just as she was about to pick up the cup, the doorbell interrupted her thoughts. 

To her surprise, it was Abbey. 

Abbey entered the room and brought a light breakfast. 

She felt relieved seeing Penny's improved complexion. 

"You had a high fever last night. This is the porridge I cooked this morning. Have some," Abbey said, glancing around the room. 

She hadn't seen Penny's husband around. 

"Penny, is your husband busy with work? You were so sick last night, and he didn't come to take care of you," she commented. 

Penny knew she had to address this issue soon. She couldn't let people keep questioning her like this. 

She needed to find someone who could pose as her husband. 

Thankfully, Sandra, with her extensive network, might know a few suitable candidates. 

But now, Penny had no choice but to reply, "Well, he has a demanding job and often travels." 

Abbey didn't say much, instructing Penny to drink the porridge instead. 

Colin quickly gave her a wink. 

A few days ago, he introduced Penny to Nancy. If she found Abbey, his new girlfriend, he definitely would be sent to the Fletcher Group again. He had freed himself from it because of Penny and he didn't want to go back there. 

For now, he had to play along. And he planned to be honest with his mother at the right opportunity. 

Nancy, despite her upper-class background, showed great appreciation towards Penny. 

She held Penny's hand and then Colin's, expressing her happiness. 

She gave them both a pat, filled with contentment. 

"Colin, cherish your relationship. You are immature and you need someone to control you." 

As Nancy spoke, the elevator doors opened. 

However, all of them were so engrossed that they didn't even notice. 

Hearing the door close, they finally glanced over and saw Abbey with a shocked face.
