From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 682 Agree to Exchange the Antidote "I only love Kelvin. I only belong to him," Penelope said, her voice steady. "Isabella, happy now?" Isabella was taken aback by her sudden declaration.

Penelope smirked. "You should be asking me, not Kelvin. Whether I love him or not is my call, not his. Got it?" Kelvin's eyes started to brighten up.

'Is she trying to break the tension, put Isabella in her place, or does she really mean it?' Kelvin wondered. 'Penelope must be on my side.' She had told him on the way over that she was with him, no matter what.

Thinking this, his earlier excitement started to calm down.

But there was still a hint of joy.

Isabella shot Penelope a dirty look. "You two-faced woman." "Watch your mouth!" "I'm just being honest!" Isabella yelled. "You know Brandon loves you like crazy, has been looking for you for over twenty years, and now you declare your love for Kelvin right in front of him! Do you want all the guys to be obsessed with you?" "Wasn't it you who first asked Kelvin if I had feelings for him?" Penelope shot back, glaring at her. "I was just answering your question!" Isabella was fuming.

Anything about Brandon always got her worked up! "Penelope, you should love Brandon!" Isabella insisted. "He's loved you for years. You stole his heart the moment you appeared. He fell for you twice. What's so great about Kelvin? Remember how he treated you and the Cooper family. Penelope, go to Brandon now. Don't let him down!" At this point, Isabella just wanted Brandon to be happy.

So, how could she let Kelvin and Penelope be happy together? What about her Brandon? The love she desperately wanted, Penelope got so easily, yet she didn't appreciate it.

Of course, she would hate and be jealous.

Why? Penelope always got everything she wanted so easily! Love, status, wealth, Penelope had it all! Each one was something Isabella could never reach! "You're overthinking it," Penelope said. "Isabella, did you callhere today just to argue?" She didn't want to hear Isabella's nonsense.

She wanted the antidote.

Lucy had a low fever, maybe because she only took half of the antidote, so her body was reacting.

The longer it dragged on, the worse it would be for Lucy! "Of course not," Isabella said. "Penelope, why didn't you cyesterday? You knew Brandon took the medicine, and you just let him suffer?"

"I tried to stop him, but he insisted on taking it, saying he wanted to be with you." Isabella was shocked. "He said that to you?" "Yeah, I respected his choice," Penelope said, her tone shifting. "I didn't want him to go through that pain! Isabella, you're the one who can detoxify him, not me!" If Isabella handed over the other half of the antidote for Lucy, Kelvin could give Brandon the antidote right away! The tension in the room was thick.

"So, you still want the antidote I have," Isabella laughed. "Penelope, your daughter is your top priority, nothing else matters to you!" Penelope shot back, "Have you ever thought that you caused all of this? If you had owned up to your mistakes earlier, turned over a new leaf, would Brandon have taken the medicine?" "Yeah, it's all my fault. I'm the bad guy, so it starts with me, and it ends with me." Isabella slowly opened her hand, looking at Kelvin. "Givethe antidote, let Brandon take it. Once he's better, I'll give you the other half of the antidote for Lucy!" She finally agreed to the exchange! Penelope's heart was racing, her palms sweaty.

Kelvin, though, kept a straight face, only his eyes showing a hint of something deeper.

"You want to trade antidotes with me?" Kelvin asked slowly. "You want to save Brandon?" "Yes!" "How can I trust you," Kelvin said. "What if you trick me?" Isabella replied, "You're so smart, can't you see through my little tricks?" "Better safe than sorry. You've got too many tricks up your sleeve." This was a critical moment, Kelvin had to stay sharp! One wrong move could mess everything up!

Isabella took a deep breath. "If you don't trust me, we can do it like last e time. give the antidote to Lucy first, after she takes it and is fine, you givethe antidote." Penelope thought that was totally doable! Just as she was about to agree, Kelvin asked, "Like last time?" "Yes. This way you can be sure, and I can't trick you." Kelvin said, "Isabella, my antidote can detoxify you, and it can also detoxify Brandon!" In other words, after getting the antidote, Isabella could take it herself!

"So you think I'd take the antidote myself and not care about Brandon's life." Isabella laughed. "You're cautious. But Kelvin, you om underestimateand my love for Brandon. Isabella spread her hands. "I'm right here, whether I live or die is up to you. Even if I take the antidote, so what? I'd still be under your control, with no rights or choices!" Kelvin said, "It was too hard to get the antidote from you before, now you're so straightforward, of course, I have to be cautious."

"I said, I want to save Brandon! It's almost tfor the attack, I don' want him to suffer anymore, I can't stand seeing him in pain, do you get that?"
