Chapter 204

Penelope sauntered over with a smile on her face. “What are you guys gossiping about?”

She’s got this habit now of always cradling her lower back with one hand, as if she’s afraid others will forget she’s pregnant Nathalie pulled out a chair for Penelope to sit on Lily glanced at Jason and Allison and can’t help but ask, “Penelope, is it true that Allison had an abortion?”

Penelope feigned surprise, her hand covering her mouth. “Oh?*

“Penelope, Allison is your maid, you should know”

These rumors did originate from her and Leah, yet Penelope was playing dumb now, saying, “Oh, we shouldn’t be talking about others like that”

Seeing Penelope’s indecisiveness, Lily knew she must know something and quickly asked, “Did Allison really have an abortion? Did she have several boyfriends?”

Penelope hesitated for a few seconds and deliberately said, “Oh dear, let’s not discuss someone’s private life”

The more Penelope behaved this way, the more Lily was certain it’s true.

“Penelope, you’re too kind If my family had such a maid, I’d have my parents fire her.”

Before Penelope could respond, Nathalie had already said, ‘Lily, you don’t know. Allison has been with the Flanagan family for a long time. She grew up with Penelope. Penelope has always treated her not as a maid but as a friend. Even if Allison behaves badly. Penelope can’t bear it.”

Penelope’s friend Sabina chimed in, “Allison’s mom was in the hospital, and it was Penelope and Mrs.

Flanagan who paid for the medical bills.”

Lily clenched her fists in anger. “How can there be such a person? Penelope, you’re just too kind and too lenient towards Allison, even taking care of her mother so well”

“Yeah, Penelope, you’re too kind. I heard Allison even stole your engagement ring from Lucian. That’s worth millions.

These socialites, either Penelope’s friends or those trying to win her favor, all comforted Penelope with their comments, wishing they could kick Allison out right away. With her gentle image ingrained in everyone’s mind, Penelope smiled happily, oblivious to the beautiful young woman in a handmade white lace dress observing her Yolanda slightly raised her eyebrows, her bright red lips curling up. “This Penelope is too naive, isn’t she? I wonder what Lucian saw in her to get engaged to such a silly.

woman.”

The woman in a light pink dress beside Yolanda said, “I think she’s quite clever, knowing how to use her advantages.”

“Her advantage of being naive?” Yolanda said. “That’s just ridiculously stupid.”

She continued, “Those who echo Penelope, Nathalie, and Sabina all come from wealthy families with average family conditions, wanting to improve their status through Penelope and the Lindbergh family.

The others are trying to win Penelope’s favor, not out of fear of offending Penelope but of offending the Lindbergh family. In short, who the maid Allison is and her character have nothing to do with them.”

Hayley said, “Yolanda, you see through things clearly”

Yolanda took a sip of champagne and said. “I’m not feeling unfair for a maid, I don’t know that maid, I just think it’s unnecessary Look at Penelope, only three or four months pregnant, holding her back as if she’s afraid we don’t know she’s pregnant.”

Hayley took out a makeup mirror and applied lipstick. She just finished eating barbecue, and the lipstick was all gone. “That’s the precious grandchild of the Lindbergh family, if she’s born, her status will be even higher.”

Yolanda rested her chin in her hands and said, “But Penelope and Allison do look a bit similar, I can’t tell where, just from the first impression, their eyes look alike.”
