40 Tomorrow’s gonna be their doomsday

40 Tomorrow’s gonna be their 

doomsday

Apologize to Second Brother. You owe him that and 

he deserves it.”

Slater furrowed his brows. For a moment, he thought she would ask him to be a slave or take his chocolates. This was not something he expected

He pressed his lips and nodded. Fine. I’ll do it.” 

Good.” Penny waved dismissively and signaled him to step aside

Slater quickly got her message and jumped away. He watched Penny stride off without looking back

I think I’m safefor now,” he whispered, heaving a sigh of relief at convincing Penny to not tell their parents. WaitI only told her not to tell Mom and 

Dad, but I didn’t tell her she can’t tell others!” 

Slater panicked and was about to run after her to 

clarify it. Ho ver, with the dirty laundry in his hand

he hesitated

18:36 

40 Tomorrow’s gonna bo their doomsday

She’s not that slow not to understand that I didn’t want her to tell anyone, right?” 

In the master’s bedroom, Allison sat on the edge of the bed while rubbing her hands with hand cream

Charles, is there a problem in the company again?she asked as she noticed her husband staring at the laptop intently

Charles was already on the bed, but his laptop was still on his lap, and some notes with a pen in his hand. No. The company is doing much better. Thanks to Penny, many want to invest in our next project.” 

Then what seems to be the problem? Why do you look so serious?” 

Well.Charles lifted his eyeglasses over his head and smiled. Penny has been very helpful in the company. She only solved one problem, but I don’t think there would be any major issues about the matter for a few years.”

He paused and smacked his lips. Even today, she’s very sweet. Do you know what she told me to make her meet Mrs. Cortez?” 

That she is Charles Bennet’s daughter and that she’ll 

be fine?Allison recalled and smiled

Our daughter is very smart and also very sweet she is truly a gift, just like what we always prayed for,he said. So, I want to make up for it by planning her birthday gift.” 

Allison raised her brows a little at the mention of 

Penny’s birthday. In a week, Penny and Nina would turn thirteen. They were born on the same day, so they had the same birthday. 

It wasn’t like the couple weren’t aware of it. However, Penny specifically asked them not to host a party for her. Thinking about it, her lips curved down

Haines is right, Charles,she remarked in 

disappointment. We might’ve been unintentionally making Penny feel an extra we brought home to clear our conscience. After all, I listened to Penny’s request to not have a party, but I haven’t thought of canceling 

Nina’s birthday celebration.” 

18:30- 

40 Tomorrow’s gonna be their doomsday

Every year, the Bennets throw a big party for their only daughter. Nina loved it. However, with Penny now in the household, it would be too insensitive to throw a big party for Nina, but not for Penny. It was also her birthday, after all

I feel horrible,she added. Nina might not be ours, but they were both our daughters.Doing one thing for one felt like neglecting the other

Charles pressed his lips. He hated it, but at the same time, he knew Haines only had their best interest in mind. We’ll talk to Nina tomorrow.” 

Charles, can’t we really keep them both?” 

AliCharles put away his laptop and dragged himself near her. He held her hand and smiled bitterly. We’re not sending Nina away. We’re justsharing. We can still take care of her and look after her. It’s just that our Penny hadn’t been with us for the first thirteen years. This would be her first birthday with us.” 

His bitter smile remained, but the determination in his eyes was palpable If we don’t choose now, I’m afraid sooner or later they’ll have to make the decision we didn’t. If that happens, we might lose our daughter

forever.” 

Tears coated Allison’s eyes. What would our sons 

think of us?” 

They will understand.He reassured

I’m afraid of what Nina would feel.” 

Nina is a good kid. She might not have matured like Penny, but I’m certain she’ll eventually understand ou 

heart.He smiled, almost certain Nina wouldn’t hold it against them. She’s been with us for thirteen years. Moreover, Butler Jen told me about his observation of the Cortez Family and he thinks they might be blunt, but they were honest people. They won’t hurt our Nina.” 

Allison was still reluctant, but she smiled subtly. Then let’s talk to her tomorrow.”” 

Seconds after the couple had an agreement, they 

heard a knock on the door

Mama? Papa? Are you still awake?” 

Penny?Allison and Charles furrowed their brows, watching the door open from the outside

Honey, is there’s something you need?Allison quickly 

10.30 – 

40 Tomorrow’s gonna be their doomsday

asked

Penny marched to them and stood near the bed. Mama, Papa, can I go back to school?” 

Hmm?the couple raised their brows at the abrupt 

request

I want to go back to school,Penny poked both her index against each other. Can I?”
