Chapter 165
Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love
Penelope wanted to make trouble, but Isabella pulled her sleeve and said, âMom, donât be angry. We are guests now. Just stay in the guest room.â
Isabellaâs voice was soft, but Penelope was even angrier.
âMom, this is not our home. We canât do anything.â Isabella said earnestly.
Penelope looked around at the servants who were on guard nervously. She felt that there was a mouthful of blood stuck in her throat.
She shook off Isabellaâs hand and glared at Susan. âIâll settle this score with you sooner or later.â
Susan was very talm. âNow, Iâll take you to the guest room first.â
âDo I need you to lead the way? Do I not know the way? Do you really think you are the owner of this place now?â Penelope said indignantly and went upstairs first.
âMom.â Isabella quickly followed her.
Susan rubbed her aching temples. Remembering what Charlie had instructed her, she could only brace herself to follow along.
Forget it, forget it. It would be for one night only.
Tomorrow, after sending away Penelope, the God of Plague, she would be fine.
As soon as Penelope entered the guest room, she glanced around and began to complain.
âWhat the hell is this place? Iâve been living here for more than 20 years. Now, you want me to live here? The position of the bed is not good, and the bedding is not my favorite blue colour. And the lamp on the ceiling is round? Do you guys even have any sense of aesthetics?â
Penelope chattered on, while Susan listened expressionlessly.
Later, she probably realized that Susan had ignored her.
Penelope was a little angry. She went straight to Susan and said, âWhat do you mean? Did you deliberately find the shabbiest guest room for me? Believe it or not, Iâll go to dad and complain to him.â
Susan calmly said, âActually, there are other guest rooms. If youâre not satisfied, I can take you to see the other rooms.â
âYouâ¦â Penelope felt that she was about to explode.
She wanted to take Susan out, but she couldnât do anything because Susan was so stubborn.
Penelope took a deep breath and said in a cold voice, âSince you said so, Iâll go to another guest room and have a good look.â
She really went out.
Isabella quickly followed him.
Susan was a little helpless, but she also knew that if Penelope didnât make a scene, wouldnât be safe.
Forget it, she would just consider this as her taking a walk after dinner.
Susan maintained a calm attitude and looked at Penelope expressionlessly.
she There were more than a dozen guest rooms on the third floor of the villa, and each was criticized by Penelope every time she went in.
When she scolded Susan, the latter just looked at her expressionlessly.
Penelope was really scared.
Later, she simply pointed at the maids and scolded them.
The young maid who came with them was scolded by Penelope and cried.
Susan could not help but frown when she saw the maid crying.
She said to the maid, âYou can leave now.â
âMrs. Landor, Iâ¦â The maid sobbed.
âItâs okay, Iâll tell her,â Susan said coldly.
The maid wiped her tears and went out.
Susan closed the door and looked at Penelope expressionlessly. âThis is the last room. Can you stay here?â
Penelope straightened her neck and said, âI canât live here. You must find someone to renovate my room.â
D âOkay.â Susan nodded. âThen Iâll get someone to renovate it right away. But itâs definitely too late tonight. Since youâre so precious and you canât compromise, you can go back first tonight. Iâll ask the driver to send you home.â
Penelope looked sullen. âAre you driving me away?â
Susan shook her head. âIâm just worried that you canât sleep well here.â
âSusan,â Penelope said in a sharp voice, âIâm older than you after all. Arenât you afraid that dad will hate you if you treat me like this?â
âYou can either stay in this room or go home. Itâs your choice.â Susan was also a little annoyed. âIf you insist on saying something to grandpa, then go ahead. Anyway, I have a clear conscience.â
Susan turned around to open the door.
âHey, Susan, youâ¦â
Penelope said angrily.
But when her voice was the loudest, suddenly, a scream replaced what she was about to say.
Susan turned around in surprise.
Then, she saw Penelope lying on the ground with her head hitting the sharp corner. At this moment, blood was flowing out.
At this time, Penelope was still conscious. She looked at Isabella in shock. âWhat⦠what are you doing?â
However, Isabella quickly walked toward her.
Susan felt her heart skip a beat.
She subconsciously wanted to stop Isabella.
However, it was too late.
Isabella once again smashed Penelopeâs head heavily on the corner of the table.
Susan couldnât believe it.
Isabella wanted to continue.
This time, Susan rushed to her side, grabbed her hand, and glared at her. âAre you crazy?â
Isabella sneered and said, âShe is so unreasonable. Donât you want to do it?â
âWhatâs going on?â Susan held on tightly to Isabella.
However, Isabella still tried her best to push Penelope.
Susan tried her best to stop Isabella.
The room was in chaos.
Penelope had long been delirious. Amidst the chaos, she was hurt by Isabella a few more times. Blood flowed down from her forehead, and she completely lost consciousness.
âWhat do you want?â Susan said angrily as she took out her mobile phone, intending to call the physician.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Isabella broke free. She deliberately stuck out her belly and bumped into another sharp corner.
Then, she lay on the ground weakly and looked at Susan with a smile. âItâs not what I want to do. Mabel Smith Susan suddenly stopped holding her phone.
She looked at Isabella in disbelief.
What was this woman talking about?
At this time, Isabella struggled to stand up. She stumbled to open the door and shouted, âHelp! Help!
Someone wants to kill me!â
She opened the door.
The maid at the door was stunned when she saw her in such a mess. She couldnât help. shouting in panic.
In the study.
Charlie was talking earnestly to Ben and Leo.
âWhen I separated you two before, I didnât mean that you were no longer brothers. On the contrary, I hoped that after you made things clear, you two would be able to be on good terms again. Leo, especially you, Storm Group, is not what you should have thought about. Now that youâve given up on it, you can really settle down and work hard!â
Hearing this, Leo felt a little uncomfortable and couldnât help saying proudly, âGrandpa, Iâve never thought about taking over Storm Group. Donât worry. With my ability, my company and prospects in the future will not be worse than Storm Group. Maybe Iâll need my brotherâs help in the future.â
Ben said indifferently, âIâm waiting for that day.â
Seeing Leo like this, Charlie Landor was actually very happy. âItâs good that you think that way.â
While the three of them were talking, someone knocked anxiously on the door.
âCome in,â Charlie said.
The housekeeper rushed in with an anxious look on his face. âMr. Landor senior, somethingâs happened!â he cried.
on âWhat could possibly happen?â Charlie was getting on in years and he didnât like listening to auspicious words, especially since today was his 80th birthday party. The expression on to auspicious words, especially since today w his face immediately darkened.
The housekeeper was even more anxious. âMrs. Penelope is in a coma, and Mrs. Isabella has been bleeding!â
Charlie was stunned, Leo had already rushed over. âWhat did you say?â
Just as the housekeeper was about to say something, Leo pushed him away and ran out quickly.
