From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 713 The One She Loves Has Always Been Kelvin Even the joy he himself hadn't noticed had already filled his heart.

"Why?" Kelvin asked. "You owed Brandon favors. But you refuse his requests." Penelope leaned in closer to him and whispered, "I feel the sway you do. Isabella's sudden change in behavior is definitely suspicious. Who knows what kind of trick she's up to now? Once she's free, she might contact the person who cast the spell and do smore witchcraft on Lucy. Brandon is a very important person in my life, but I can't risk putting Lucy in danger of being controlled by witchcraft again just because of him!" Kelvin's voice was low. "So, in your heart, Brandon doesn't compare to Lucy." "You can't compare them like that. They are different. Lucy is my daughter; Brandon is my..." Penelope couldn't think of an accurate word to describe Brandon.

She didn't have that kind of romantic love for Brandon.

A close friend or more than a friend but not quite family? Penelope racked her brain for the right word, but Kelvin thought she was too embarrassed to say "lover." But it didn't matter; now was not the tto dwell on these things.

Although Kelvin was jealous, he knew how to read the room.

Penelope had no idea what he was thinking at the moment.

She said, "Anyway, if Brandon were in a life-threatening situation right now and needed my blood or something to save him, I would agree without hesitation, even if it might putin danger. But I can't let Isabella go just because he asked. Kelvin, I know what I'm doing." Kelvin's thin lips brushed against her earlobe. "So now, how are you going to make Brandon not feel awkward?" Penelope blinked in a daze.

She hadn't thought that far ahead.

"Right, what should I do?" Penelope tugged at his sleeve. "Think of something." "Me?" "Yeah, you have to help me! Are you really going to leaveto deal with them alone? Can you bear it?" The more Penelope spoke, the more indignant she became. "You shut them down with a single 'no,' and now they're all coming to me. Besides Brandon, Brent hasn't even started pleading yet!" Kelvin replied, "Penelope, I didn't say anything because I thought you would ctoto plead for Isabella. So, I was waiting for you to speak up." Unexpectedly, she had no intention of doing so! "In your mind, am I that unreasonable?" Penelope muttered. "I'm not always causing trouble, and I know exactly what kind of person Isabella is and how malicious she can be. If I play the good guy and let her go, and she does something bad later, you'll have to clean up the mess. How exhausting for you." Kelvin's hand tightened slightly around her waist.

If it weren't for the others being present, he would have wanted to kiss her passionately at that moment! However, Kelvin and Penelope were already close enough.

The two were whispering to each other, and no one else could hear what they were talking about.

Brandon could clearly see the growing smile on Kelvin's face.

Kelvin was in favor of not letting Isabella go, so his happiness must mean that Penelope was on his side. And Brandon was excluded.

At that moment, Brandon suddenly realized the huge gap between him and Penelope.

Lost in the world of this story? Make sure you're on Ñe5sto catch every twist and turn. The next chapter awaits, exclusively on our site. Dive in now! She was Kelvin's wife, Lucy and Sam's mother, and her life was intricately linked with Kelvin's.

It was an unbreakable bond, an inseparable entanglement.

Even without love, Kelvin and Penelope still had their children.

Moreover, love had always existed between the two of them.

And what was Brandon to her? Feeling a desolate gaze on her, Penelope looked up and met Brandon's eyes.

Kelvin was happy.

Brandon was in pain.

Penelope suddenly understood why Kelvin had said those things before coming to the Walker family, why he had initiated the divorce, and why he had looked so hurt.

Because she had always been caught between two men, trying to please both.

She couldn't make both Kelvin and Brandon satisfied at the stime; she was bound to hurt one of them! This was not what she wanted to see.

Penelope had never intended to choose between two men.

The one she loved had always been Kelvin.

As for Brandon, his love for her was his own business, something she hadn't anticipated and was surprised by Adding her status as the Mitchell family's daughter made things even more complicated! It seemed that once the matter with Isabella was resolved, Penelope needed to have a good talk with Brandon alone.

"Brandon, I am very grateful for all the help you've givenover the years.

e If you ever need anything in the m future, as long as I can help, I will do so without hesitation and with all my might," Penelope said. "But I owe you a favor, not Isabella." "You misunderstood, Penelope," Brandon said. "I want to save Isabella not because I love her, but because..." "I understand, you've been with her for so many years, there's bound to be sfeelings. No love, but there's affection." Brandon sighed in relief. "Yes. So, can you give her a chance?" Faced with his repeated request, Penelope still firmly shook her head.

Beside them, Brent's eyes showed despair.

Even Brandon's words didn't work.

No one could save Isabella! However, Brent still wanted to try one last time!

"Penelope, what if I am willing to initiate a divorce, leave LA with nothing?" Brent asked "The three of up will never set foot in LA again, and you'll never see us again. You can consider us as having disappeared from this world." This was Brent's last bottom line and retreat.

Previously, he had held onto hope and expectation, wanting to fight for the property, to stay in LA, and to not just hand over the fruits of his life's work to Nicole.

Now he understood that being able to leave unscathed was already the best outcome.

Penelope looked delicate and fragile, but she was so strong-willed and had no regard for father-daughter feelings!
