Penny was now confined in a room without windows. There was only a transparent glass on the ceiling through which she could see the blue sky.She had no idea if she was in the city or in the suburbs.Nor did she know how long she had been unconscious. By the time she regained consciousness, she was already in this room.She thought of the small snake that had bitten Caleb and belatedly felt frightened.The snake's venom was potent enough to be lethal. She wondered how Caleb was doing and what Casby's purpose was."Open the door! Open it!" she shouted, banging on the room's only door. However, after two hours, there was no response.She sat on the floor, feeling exhausted. Finally, she heard footsteps outside.The door opened, and Casby walked in.The room only had a clock on the wall, and it showed that it was 9:00 pm. Casby saw her curled up on the floor, her arms tightly hugging her knees. He smirked.He knelt on one knee, grabbed her chin, and examined her face.Penny tr

Casby repeatedly told Sir Fergerson about these events."Grandpa, your proudest grandson was treated like livestock on the experimental table. At that moment, he was no prodigy. In the eyes of those people, he was just a rabbit waiting to be dissected. And all this was because you agreed to let him undertake that mission."Grandpa, why is Caleb so lucky? He's now the heir and gets to receive your affection. I'm the one who has to bear all this because I'm his elder brother. If I weren’t his brother, I wouldn't have had to protect him, right?"Francis' health was already failing, and he could hardly bear hearing these things.Just imagining Caspian, such an outstanding person, being experimented on in a lab made Sir Fergerson vomit blood repeatedly.In his youth, Sir Fergerson was known for his iron fist. In his old age, family became his priority.His two most beloved grandsons were Caleb and Caspian.He had thought Caspian was dead all these years and handed over Fergerson Corp

The memorial service the Fergersons held was grand, befitting Sir Fergerson's special status. Many high-profile individuals attended, so it could not be a low-key affair.On the day of Sir Fergerson's memorial service, Caleb was absent. Prominent figures arrived one after another, their cars adorned with small red flags.In addition to these dignitaries, influential business leaders closely associated with the Fergersons were also present.Some exchanged pleasantries with the Fergerson family members and inquired about Caleb's whereabouts, but no one knew where he was.Sir Fergerson's wake caused a stir in their circles, though the news had not spread beyond that.However, anyone who really wanted to find out would surely know about the passing of Sir Fergerson.Meanwhile, Penny was still trapped in the small room when she suddenly heard footsteps outside.In the past few days, either the gentleman or the erratic man would enter her room.The gentleman would typically knock, bu

Finn was silent for a moment before he softly said, "Cas doesn't seem like someone so superficial."So superficial as to excerpt a line of poetry that included the name of the woman he liked. He would not have done it so blatantly, without trying to hide anything.Caleb lowered his eyelashes, his hands were clenched into fists with all his strength."Liking someone is essentially a superficial thing. If it really is Penny, then doesn't everything make sense? We've never suspected her, so we were always investigating in the wrong direction. That's why there's been no progress in the matter until now.""But Caleb, if Penny really is that woman, then her appearance in your life would have an ulterior motive. She has always known we were looking for Cas, yet she never revealed that she's the woman Cas liked. "With Grandpa Fergerson following Cas and Penny's timely disappearance, were all of the people at the cliff Cas' men?"This implied that Caspian and Penny conspired to kill Sir

Meanwhile, Penny fell into a heavy sleep last night and did not wake up until noon.She looked up at the sky overhead, where the sun shone brightly. By now, Sir Fergerson's funeral must have been over, right?How was Caleb doing?Was he really hiding somewhere, as Casby had said?She felt tears welling up in her eyes. She thought that she should be by his side at this moment.The door to her room was pushed open abruptly, and Casby walked in. Seeing her red eyes, he found it amusing."Worried about Caleb?"Penny's face instantly darkened. In front of Casby, she was like an impenetrable wall, unwilling to reveal any of her emotions.Casby noticed this, and his gaze turned harsher."Not in the mood to talk to me? Too bad. You'll have to stay by my side for a while."He irritably tossed a cup of instant noodles onto the table. His tone was cold when he spoke."Eat up. After you're done, we'll leave." Penny remained silent. Her diet had been very irregular these past few days.
