The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 2234

"Don't!" Penn's voice cracked with panic. He turned his pleading gaze toward Rosalynn.

"I keep my promises. I won't go back on my word," Rosalynn said calmly, "She will live, live to a ripe old age."

Penn seemed to realize something.

"Penn, you lied to me too! You betrayed me!" Rose screamed as if she had lost her mind, furiously cursing Penn, "No wonder your parents got hit by a car on your birthday. Having a son like you was their sin, and getting hit was their karma! You'll meet a terrible end too!"

What's that saying? The one who can hurt you the deepest is the one who knows you best.

How could Rose not know what Penn's Achilles' heel was? It was nothing more than the tragic car accident that claimed his parents' lives as they hurried home for his birthday celebration.d2

For a long time, Rose had been consoling Penn with "It was just an accident, it wasn't your fault." But now, it was the same Rose, using that very accident as a knife, plunging it into Penn.

Everyone has their breaking point.

Penn looked at Rose, the words begging for mercy almost escaping his lips.

"My mom was right, why did it have to be your parents who died? Because they deserved it!"

After she uttered these words. Penn withdrew his gaze, and the desperate emotion on his face faded away. He nodded slightly to Rosalynn, "I've got a ton of work back at the institute, so I won't linger."

"Take him with you," Rosalynn gestured toward Letho.

Letho looked at Penn with terror, "Professor, I was tricked by her!"

"Let's go," Penn said without another word, not giving Rose another glance.

Letho, as if granted a reprieve, quickly followed Penn out.
