Penny’s POV:

After taking my bath, I wore a black long dress British promised me back tonight so I wanted to look good I don’t know why but I just wanted to.

“ Mum when will Arley be here I miss her so much.” Chris said and i sighed.

“They will be here soon maybe there is traffic on the road. Come let’s go set the table for dinner.” I told him and he jumped up in happiness.

Chris and we started dishing out the food for dinner·

30 minutes later and they are not yet here.

I was worried.

I picked up my phone and dial this number but he wasn’t picking up·

What could have happened?

After waiting for so long I told Chris to eat his dinner and went back to bed.

I sat down on the couch, a glass if white wine in my hand.

After drinking for so long I lay my head on the back seat and closed my eyes.

The doorbell jolted me out of my sleep I didn’t know how long I slept off but it sounds like the bell has been ringing for quite a long time.

who could it be?

I checked my phone and it was already 10:30 p.m. I tiptoed towards the door and peeped Through the Keyhole, surprisingly it was Bryce what could he be doing here at this time of the night?

I pUlled the door open and my mouth dropped open.

Bryce was looking smoking hot and i couldn’t help but gulk at him.

“You look so beautiful tonight.” He said and i blushed hard.

Really who should be refered to ask beautiful between the both of us?

“And you too Bryce, you look splendid.” I told him and he nodded.

He stepped inside the house and kss my forehead I was surprised but then blushed at the same time·

“ where is Chris?” He asked me.

“He slept off few hours ago, he was so excited about meeting Arley again.” I said and sat down on the couch.

“I’m sorry for coming late, i was dealing with something.” He said calmly.

He sounded dull.

“Are you alright? What happened?”

I felt like something happened before he arrived here, but he wasn’t saying a word about it.

I was worried as well, what could have went wrong?

When he didn’t say a word and I decided not to push it.

I stood up from the couch and led him to the dining table.

“Here, take a seat let’s eat.” I told him with a smile.

After we had dinner Bryce and I sitted on the couch discussing.

He actually told me what kept him late,his p$ychotic wife visited him.

that was hilarious though, I couldn’t believe that Zendaya was cheating on him.

He was so sad, I could feel his pain.

I did feel I too when my own suster wished me bad.

“Dont feel down by what happened in the padt Bryce, I’ve learnt to let go. You should too.” I told him and he stared up at me in surprise.

“Yes the trauma will be there, I’ll remember it sometimes but I still gave a whole life in front of me.

I cant ruin that.” I added.

To be honest, I was also surprised at myself.

I couldn’t believe that im the one saying all this.

“Penelope, what sort of a woman are you? You’re too intelligent and kind to suffer on earth.” He retorted. Is there anytime that he doesn’t haul me?

“Here, i got this for you. Merry Christmas.” I told him and hand over the small box to him.

Earlier today, I ordeted for a Rolex watch that costed me $50,000.

I know it is nothing to what he could afford but still, i wanted to gift him something.

That was the least I could do.

“What is inside?” He asked.

“I dont know? Open it to find out.” I told him, he grinned boyishly and tore open the wrap.

“Wow! A Rolex watch. I’m surprised Penny.” He said.

I felt proud of myself because he loved it which made me wonder what he has in store for me, he told me earlier that he has a gift but he didn’t specialise what the gift is all about.

could it be a car? a house? A Top Ranking job? or does he want me to live with him? what could it be exactly?

well I guess it’s time to find out.

“ Penelope from the first day I saw you, I felt a special connection towards you.

I was enticed not just by your beauty but also by your sense of judgement,the first day I met you was the inside a cafe, you were fighting against a bully inside the cafe. your actions brought me closer to know more about you.

The day I found out that you had nowhere to stay I use that opportunity to bring you closer penny even heaven knows that I have a lot of things to say to you tonight but I can’t say it all.

let’s just caught The Chase by the Blow, ever since you came into my life things have changed I’ve done a lot of things that I’ve never thought I will ever do in my life.

I have made a lot of sacrifices, I have witnessed a lot of knowledge coming from you and I want to learn more, please let me learn more.

Tonight I want to tell you that I love you penny.” He said and i sat there in shock.

“I love you so much that it’s killing me. I know that it I quick couple to the fact that you experienced something horrible few weeks ago, but i want to be here, for you, for Chris and for Arley.

Will you let me take care of you?”

I was left speechless!
