From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 499 Lucy, my Dear Sister! I'm Coming! Isabella plopped down on the couch, all chill.

Sam's eyes locked onto the bag the servant was holding.

He glanced around, then swaggered over to Isabella. "Hey, Aunt Isabella." "Oh, it's you," Isabella said, giving him a quick look. "What's up?" Brandon had a soft spot for Sam, and with the whole Penelope situation being a bit murky, Isabella knew she had to play nice.

So, she kept it cool.

"Ruby toldyou and Uncle Brandon are tying the knot," Sam said with a cheeky grin. "Weddings mean candy, right? Can I get sto celebrate? Wishing you guys all the happiness!" Who doesn't love a good compliment? Isabella chuckled, "Not bad, kid. You sure know how to sweet-talk. I've got scandy in my bag; you can have it all!" She motioned to the servant, who was about to stash her bag in the cabinet. The servant handed it over. "Here you go, Ms. Mitchell." Isabella dug out a handful of candy. "Here you go." "Thanks, Aunt Isabella! Candy time!" Sam grabbed the candy and bolted out, grinning ear to ear.

"Kids, they get so hyped over a bit of candy," Isabella muttered with a smirk.

Sam was almost at the door when he smacked right into Brandon, who had just walked in.

"Ouch!" Sam rubbed his head, candy scattering everywhere.

"Easy there," Brandon said, helping him up. "Why the rush?" Sam's eyes sparkled. "Aunt Isabella gavea ton of candy, Uncle Brandon, look!" He crouched down, scooping up the candy, and offered one to Brandon. "Want one?" Brandon's face twisted a bit.

Candy? This wedding wasn't even happening: where'd the candy cfrom? He just ruffled Sam's hair. "You can have some, but don't go overboard, or you'll wreck your teeth." "Got it!" Sam dashed off again, a happy kid with a stash of candy.

But as soon as he hit his room, his smile vanished, replaced by a serious look.

Sam carefully picked out one candy, unwrapped it, and crushed the shell.

What looked like candy was actually a tiny bugging device.

This was what Sam had slipped into Isabella's bag.

Taking down a bad woman needed more than just poison! Kelvin's moves had given him the idea! As long as it got the job done, who cared about the method? Kelvin and Sam were totally on the spage about this.

Sam popped on his headphones and started listening to the bug.

After a bit, his face got even more serious.

"Sam, Sam?" Ruby's voice called from outside. "Dinner's ready. I brought it up for you, and we've got your favorite ribs." Sam quickly stashed the headphones and bug in his pocket. "Ruby, I'm here." He acted like nothing was up.

But his mind was already working on a plan.

Meanwhile, over at King Manor.

In the dining room, servants were bringing in dish after dish, filling up the table.

"Whoa, what's the occasion?" Lucy asked, eyes wide. "Dad, what's the special deal today?" It was a good day because Madison wasn't around.

Even Penelope looked a bit surprised.

Kelvin shrugged, "Nah, just want you to eat more." "But I can't finish all this," Lucy protested.

"No biggie," Kelvin said, "Dad's got cash. Eat up, no worries." Lucy looked at him seriously, "But our teacher says we shouldn't waste food." Penelope chimed in, "Mr. Davis is a big-shot capitalist, spends money like it's nothing.

To him, this is probably just a drop in the bucket." Kelvin ignored her and put sveggies on Lucy's plate. "Eat." Lucy's face fell.

"You too," he said to Penelope. "Why are you just standing there?" Penelope pointed at herself, "Me? Sit down and eat?" "Yeah," Kelvin replied.

Penelope was about to argue. She was just the nanny, right? But then she thought, why was she being so meek? She could sit and eat. She was still Kelvin's wife, at least for now. They weren't divorced yet. She was still the lady of King Manor! So, Penelope sat down without a second thought.

After all, Madison wasn't around! The butler saw this and quickly signaled the other servants to leave, giving the family sspace.

A rare moment of peace.

Penelope poked at her food, feeling down.

"Thalia, eat more veggies," Lucy said, "You're so skinny, you need to bulk up." Penelope smiled, "Thanks, Lucy." If you're loving the book, nel5sis where the adventure continues. Join us for the complete experience-all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you! Just then, Kelvin put a piece of shrimp in her bowl.

Penelope felt like her food was tainted.

"Why aren't you eating?" Kelvin asked, "What's with the staring?" She took a deep breath and asked as calmly as she could, "Who asked you to givefood?" "Just a habit," Kelvin said.

Penelope stood up, "I'm getting a new bowl." She had barely taken two steps when a familiar voice cfrom outside, "Lucy! I'm here!" 'Is that Sam?' Penelope thought she was hearing things.

How could she hear Sam's voice? "Ah! It's Sam!" Lucy's eyes lit up. She jumped off her chair and ran outside. "Sam, I'm here!" Lucy ran out of the dining room.

Sam ran in.

They met at the door and hugged each other happily.

Penelope was stunned. What was going on?

"Oh, it's like we haven't seen each other in forever," Sam said with a grin, "We were just The content is on Welwere novelenglish.net! playing games at preschool today."

"But seeing you at night feels different. I wish I could see you every day, justNike before..." Lucy said. The ber content is on novelenglish.net!

"Ah! It smells so good!" Sam quickly e raised his voice to cover her words, "Uncle Kelvin, you guys are eating!" He climbed onto a chair without hesitation, eyeing the feast. "I'm hungry too. Can I eat?" Kelvin stared at him, "Why are you here?" "I missed Lucy. That's the main reason," Sam said, "And also, I need to talk to you about something." He blinked and raised an eyebrow, trying to look all cool and suave.
