Chapter 258
The Billionaire’s Maid Bride
Penelope woke up in her trailer. It was already past five in the afternoon, by which time the crew had already wrapped up their dayâs work âCharlie, didnât I tell you to let me know in advance if Allison stops by?â
âMs Flanagan, you were sleeping so soundly that I didnât have the heart to disturb you. After all, you need your rest right now.â
Penelopeâs hand rested on her belly. Did Gavin get mad that I missed the afternoon scenes?â
âEven if heâs mad, what can he do? The top investor and distributor for this film is Epic Entertainment.
Ms. Flanagan, your priority right now is to take care of yourself The baby in your belly is whatâs most important.â Charlie was sent by Epic Entertainment to look after Penelope, his main task to make sure she didnât overwork herself, especially with Lucianâs baby inside her.
Penelope took out her phone and dialed Lucian.
Once the call was connected, Penelopeâs voice was very gentle, âLucian, are you free tonight? Iâm so tired from filming all day, the baby inside me gave me a kick. Seems like heâs missing his daddyâ
As she expected, Lucian cut her off with, Thereâs still work to be done at the company, he hung up the phone. Penelope instructed the driver, âTake me to the Lindberg family.â
If Lucian wouldnt come to her, sheâd take the initiative to go to him.
Arriving at the Lindberg family house.
Penelope was a bit nauseous during dinner, and Miranda immediately asked with concern, âPenelope, are you okay?â
Iâm fine, itâs just that the baby has been moving a lot these past few daysâ
Miranda said, âAll first pregnancies are like this, a bit tough. I had someone prepare some nourishing soup for you!
âMiranda, I donât feel the hardship at all. Whenever I think about this as my baby with Lucian, I feel so happyâ
Miranda looked at Penelope, thinking she could make a great daughter-in-law it was a pity that her son hadnât made a move yet.
Miranda glanced at the diamond necklace on Penelopeâs neck, âPenelope, how come I havenât seen you wearing the necklace Lucian gave you?â
Penelope was taken aback. Since when did Lucian give her a necklace? She searched her memory as Miranda continued to speak.
âThat necklace was a gift from me to Lucian. He had it with him when he was in Cloudville, and there was a big earthquake. Luckily, he only injured his leg. Lucian always kept that necklace with him.
Giving it to you is like a sign of your fate togetherâ
Penelope was shocked inside but kept a calm exterior, I thought the necklace was too precious, so I kept it in its boxâ
Miranda nodded with a smile, âWear it next time at a family dinner. It looks really goodâ
Penelope smiled back, âHmmâ
Leaving the Lindberg family house, she felt unsettled. Back at the Flanagan family house, she searched her entire bedroom but couldnât find the necklace. Almost all the items in her jewelry box were hers.
Could it be that the necklace was given to Allison?
Penelope gritted her teeth and said, âAllison! | knew it, Allison must have left something to threaten me with.â
She called Margo over and went to Allisonâs old residence, a locked cabin. She told Margo, âBreak the lock!â
Margo immediately followed her instructions and broke the lock in a few hits. Entering the cabin, they found that Allison had already moved out; the whole house was empty. She stomped her foot in annoyance, âDo you know where she lives now?â
Iâm not sure about that. Iâll ask Linda, sheâs quite close with Allison.â
