They were right. She was rushing things since the court case hadn’t actually begun. Judging by how
smart Eugene was, he certainly wouldn’t bring this matter up in court. Even if she found out that Ellen
was alive, it was no use at all. At most, she could reduce her mother’s sentence by a few years. But
what else could she do? Was she just going to watch her mother being sent to prison?
Nicole warmly invited Penny over to her house after receiving Penny’s call. However, when Nicole saw
how much of a mess Penny was, she let out a gasp of surprise. “Oh, dear! What happened to you?”
Perhaps it was all the obstacles she had encountered that day, but Nicole’s sudden warmth made
Penny feel like crying. Tears welled up in her eyes, which made her look more pitiful than ever. Nicole
didn’t seem to mind how much of a mess Penny was right then, for she quickly pulled the other woman
into a hug. “Don’t cry. Let’s sit down and talk,” Nicole suggested.
As Nicole spoke, she quickly pulled out some clothes for Penny to get changed. “How did you end up in
such a state?” Nicole asked.
“Eugene hit me,” Penny said while sobbing. Nicole was shocked to hear this. Although everyone was
afraid of Eugene, he wasn’t the type of person who would just hit others without any reason. It was
even more unlikely for him to hit Penny, who was like a younger sister to him.
“Eugene? Why did he hit you?” Nicole asked. Penny gave Nicole a summary of what had happened
that morning. “Now, I know that he has never treated me like a sister. Otherwise, he wouldn’t treat me
that way, right?”
Nicole didn’t agree. “You might be misunderstanding your brother. He used to be so nice to you, and he
used to bring you out for good food all the time. What do you mean when you say that he never treated
you like a sister? A relationship is a two-way street-you relied on him because he was nice to you,
right? It’s just that recently, your brother… has indeed been…” Nicole didn’t finish her words as she
didn’t know how to complete the rest of her sentence.
Penny quickly caught up to what Nicole was saying. “Well, it’s because he started dating Olivia. That
naturally means that I, his so-called younger sister, is now in second place. You have no idea how
excited he was when Olivia managed to save Old Man Nolan. He just wanted to flaunt her skills! I was
giving him a chance to show off, yet he ended up hitting me! How dare he hit me?”
The more she spoke, the sorrier she felt for herself. Big, fat tears streamed down her cheeks. Nicole let
out an exasperated sigh. “I agree. He no longer contacts his friends, either. All he thinks about is
Olivia. Well, I guess it can’t be helped. Olivia isn’t going to just disappear into thin air, so the only thing
you can do is to accept it.”
Penny pouted her lips sadly. “You’re the best to me, Nicole. You have no idea how bad it was when I
went to Uncle Evans. I wanted him to help me come up with a solution, yet he told me that he couldn’t
do anything. He even told me not to get involved. In other words, he was saying that my mother
deserved what she got. How could he say such things? Even if my mother deserved what she got, he
shouldn’t say such things since he’s her brother, right? Didn’t my mother spend her whole life building
Roberts Group? One can only see another’s true colors when something bad happens.”
Nicole tugged the other girl’s hand. “Alright. Don’t be sad. It’s normal for people to backstab and betray
others, but it’s rare for people to offer help during one’s time of need. If you want to save your mother,
you’ll have to rely on yourself. Your uncle probably doesn’t even want your mother to be released.
Think about it. Who would want your mother to stay away from the company? Your uncle, of course!
That’s why he would never help you!”
Penny scoffed. “Even if my mother weren’t around, he wouldn’t be the one to make decisions. My
mother still holds the largest number of shares in Roberts Group. Ah! If only I’m as capable as my
mother. Now, I feel really helpless. I don’t know what to do. It’s been so many years, and I feel like I’ve
been learning about the business for so long that I don’t even know what I’m learning anymore.”
