The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 45

Penelope was already out of the hospital before Lucian came back.

Her allergy was completely gone, leaving no traces on her body or face.

A black sedan pulled up at the Flanagan family's front door. As Penelope descended the stairs, Leah hugged her tightly, "Let me look at you. You’re okay, thank god. You had me worried sick."

"Mum, I promise I won't mess around anymore."

Nearby, Christopher called Penelope into the study and sternly said, "Enough of this. Best to keep your temper in check around the Lindbergs. Allison helped you out this time, and you should thank her properly."

"I hear you, Dad," Penelope said, though she didn't take his words to heart.

Christopher shook his head helplessly, knowing she had not taken his words seriously. "Penelope, now that you're engaged to Lucian, you can't embarrass the Flanagans or the Lindbergs. It's time to cut ties with any past inappropriate relationships."

Penelope had been spoiled by Leah, dating in junior high school and in high school, he discovered her with a blond man.

Penelope felt a little guilty. She had been with Pete at the hospital just a few days ago.

"Dad, I know my boundaries. I won't do anything I shouldn't. Don't worry," she said, sounding a bit wronged and her eyes reddening.

His heart softened, and he sighed, "I'm just looking out for you. The Lindbergs are not like us; you have to be cautious around them."

"I understand," Penelope replied obediently, but her resentment was all directed at Allison.

But thinking about her and Pete, she suddenly remembered what Pete had said.
