Chapter 65 Backstab Penny
As Penny walked in, she heard a burst of barking and noticed a white figure approaching her from a distance and then frantically circling her.
Penny dropped her head and placed her hand on its brow.
"Niko, have you been a good boy while I was away?"
Anika emerged from the kitchen, wearing an apron and seemed to be approximately fifty years old, compassionate and honest.
"When you weren't there, he was naughty. He even went to the fishpond yesterday and captured all the fish. Finally, I removed the thorns and fried the fish for him."
Penny laughed and caressed Niko's head harder.
"How come you're so greedy?"
Niko was a German Shepherd who was roughly six years old and had always been by Penny's side.
Penny couldn't keep a dog in her flat, and Rex occurred to gift her this cottage. So she asked Anika to look after Niko for her.
Penny dragged her bag into the hall after a while of playing with Niko.
Anika's eyes widened with amazement when she saw Penny in this state.
"Ms. Stuart, have you finally decided to live here?"
"My flat was broken into by thieves, so I'll be staying here for a few days."
Anika was taken aback and concerned. "Did you call the police? It is unsafe for a girl to live outside. Why don't you just stay here from now on, Ms. Stuart? Rex instructed me to look after you, but you've barely come here in the last three years. It's difficult for me to explain to Rex."
"I can only stay here until I find a new house."
Penny curled her lips slightly as she played with Niko with one hand.
Niko lay on the ground, excitedly wagging its tail, his eyes sparkling brilliantly.
On the other side, Orlando had just dropped off Penny when he received a call from Rex.
"Orlando, my paperwork is nearly finished. I'll be back soon."
Orlando rubbed his temples. "I know, Grandpa. Look after yourself."
"If you truly care about me, hurry up and have a big baby with Penny. Perhaps that will make me heal faster. What is the use of simply caring in words?"
Orlando couldn't help but think about Penny's lovely handwriting on that agreement-Penny Stuart.
It was claimed that one's handwriting mirrored their true character. The Stuarts were notoriously greedy, but her handwriting appeared clean and simple. It fell short of her family's reputation.
