From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 719 Lost a Husband, But Gained a Daughter and Son-in-Law Nicole shook her head and sighed.

Penelope comforted her, "You're great, really. You just met the wrong person. Brent is heartless and ungrateful, wasting your best years." With Nicole's abilities, starting a company when she was young would have been very easy.

But to support Brent, she willingly stepped back and beca housewife.

That too was a kind of sacrifice. Nicole contributed her tto the family, so half of the money Brent made from the company belonged to her! What right did Brent have to cut off Nicole's card? "He letdown, but my daughter never will!" Nicole felt warm inside. "But Penelope, you gaveyour salary card. What about yourself?" "I still have my husband!" Kelvin wouldn't cut off her credit card, right? He had so much money! She was his wife! And she gave birth to two children for him.

Nicole laughed. "The bank card you used to pay the hospital fees, which was from Mr. Davis, right?" Penelope nodded. "Yes, he had the butler give it tothis morning. He gaveone before, but I didn't use it, and now I can't even find it." After a pause, she said, "That was the first tI used it." Penelope was still not used to spending other people's money.

The Cooper family had always taught her to be independent, self-reliant, and not to depend on anyone.

"I understand how you feel now because I had the sthoughts when I was young." Nicole held her hand. "But Penelope, Kelvin is not Brent, and you are not me. You don't have to worry so much. To Kelvin, you spending his money makes him very happy." Penelope was stunned. "Happy?" "Yes," Nicole confirmed. "Kelvin is a very capable man. He enjoys taking care of you and giving you a luxurious life because you are the person he loves most, his lifelong partner. His achievements, everything he has, he needs you to share it with him." "That's the difference between men." Nicole patted her hand. "A truly strong man is never stingy. But someone who relies on others will always be petty." Penelope nodded, somewhat understanding.

Kelvin was displeased when he found out she hadn't used his bank card.

At the time, Penelope thought it was strange that he had an issue with her not spending his money.

Nicole laughed. "Just spend it without worry. Believe me, if you spend too little, Kelvin will find a way to ask you why you haven't bought clothes or bags, wishing you would bring the whole mall home." "Actually, I don't have much to spend money on," Penelope said. "The King Manor takes care of all my needs." Now, Kelvin had given her another unlimited bank card.

Penelope always felt like she was being wasteful! "An excellent man takes care of everything, so you don't have to worry," Nicole said. "I was unfortunate. I was foolish when I was young, insisting on marrying Brent, and now I face this outcome. But seeing you marry well, I'm satisfied." "Let's not talk about Brent; it just makesangry." Nicole changed the subject. "Penelope, how is Isabella now?" Afraid Penelope might overthink, Nicole explained, "I'm not pleading for her. She has to pay for her mistakes, and no one can help her. I just want to know if she handed over the antidote. Has her poison been neutralized?" Penelope replied, "Lucy has regained consciousness, and Isabella's poison is also cured. It won't act up again." She didn't say more, not wanting Nicole to worry and worsen her condition.

Fortunately, Nicole didn't ask further.

Nicole just sighed in relief. "That's good. As long as Lucy is okay. It's heartbreaking for such a young child to go through this." Her reaction was what a family member should have, caring for Lucy.

Unlike Brent, who only knew how to plead for Isabella! Penelope had a mother now.

Lucy and Sam also had a grandmother now! "But I..." Nicole frowned, glanced at Penelope, and then looked away. "I raised Isabella.

I truly treated her as my own daughter. She's Brent and Debra's child. That's not her fault. No one can choose their birth, Honestly, radn't hate her because children are innocent. I hate Debra and Brent.

When Isabella cto me, she was very young, didn't understand anything, and didn't know her own background. She was smart, and tried hard to please everyone."

Nicole shook her head. "I really can't imagine how she becso ruthless and vicious." "She's not worth your concern, Penelope said. "Don't think about her. After she learned about her background, she never considered you family." "I'm just wondering where my education went wrong to make her like this. I never taught her to harm others or to be jealous!" "It's a genetic issue. She's Debra's daughter. No matter how you teach her, you can't change what's in her genes." Debra was like that, and so was Isabella.

Nicole wanted to say something, but Penelope helped her lie down and adjusted the blanket "You just focus op getting better. By the tyou're discharged, everything will be resolved, and a new life will be waiting for you." "Yes, I lost a husband, but I gained a daughter, a son-in-law, and a granddaughter." Nicole smiled gently. "Penelope, can you call'Mom' now?" She wanted to hear "Mom" because she had waited a long time.

Penelope looked at her sincerely. "Mom, you will always be my mom." Nicole touched her head. "Good child, having a daughter like you is my blessing. I'm glad I insisted on giving birth to you back then, even though it made my health worse. Looking back now, it was all worth it."
