From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 390 Why Are You Touching My Birthmark? He said excitedly, "This is for mommy, this is for Lucy, and these are my clothes..." Soon, his little suitcase was packed tight.

Just waiting for Brandon to pick him up! And Penelope had no clue about any of this.

Once the surgery date was set, doctors and nurses started coming by a lot.

Lucy had to undergo various pre-op tests, and even though the nurses were kind, Penelope stayed with her the entire time.

Kelvin wasn't slacking either. As a bone marrow donor, he needed to load up on nutrients, especially iron.

So, he had to eat a lot of red meat, like pork and beef.

He wouldn't have touched this stuff before, but he forced it down for the iron.

Plus, Kelvin needed to get shots to prep for the bone marrow transplant.

At night, Lucy went to bed early.

Penelope tucked her in, looking at the needle marks on her arm, feeling a lump in her throat.

Soon, all of this would be over.

Her Lucy would be a healthy, normal kid.

"Don't worry. The surgery will be a success," Kelvin gently placed his hand on her shoulder. "You've had a long day too. Get srest." Penelope nodded, looking into his eyes. "You've been working hard too." Even though she still had mixed feelings about Kelvin, seeing him at the hospital every day, getting shots, and eating stuff he hated, she felt a bit of sympathy and softened. Penelope wasn't heartless.

She realized she could both hate and love him at the stime.

"For Lucy, it's all worth it. It's not about hard work," Kelvin said. "As long as she's okay, that's all that matters." He could tell Penelope's coldness towards him was fading.

This was a good sign.

Seeing the warmth return to her eyes made him happier than anything else.

Penelope nodded, said nothing more, and went to bed after a shower.

At first, she wasn't used to the small bed, but now it didn't bother her as much. Habit was a funny thing.

She lay on her side, closed her eyes, and soon felt sleepy from exhaustion.

Kelvin finished his shower and lay down, making the bed sink slightly.

He noticed and chuckled softly. "I've been eating so well every day. I've gained a few pounds. If this keeps up, by the tLucy is discharged, I'll be a fat guy." It was rare to see Kelvin joke about himself.

Penelope, with her eyes closed, replied casually, "With all those muscles, it's not that easy to lose them." "If I get fat, will you dislike me?" "I already dislike you." Kelvin lay down. "Then what kind do you like?" Penelope, with a heavy nasal tone, said, "Sleep and be quiet." "Okay." He agreed, but his hand reached over, pulling her waist into his embrace.

Penelope's back pressed against his chest, and she could feel the dampness from his body.

She moved slightly.

"Penelope..." Kelvin's breath got heavy. "Don't move. I can't help it." 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! With that, most of her sleepiness vanished.

She wasn't naive; she was already a mother of two and knew what was up! So, Penelope's body immediately went stiff.

Kelvin wouldn't do anything, right? "Just don't move, don't be so nervous," Kelvin's hand gently caressed her waist. "I won't force you." Sleeping next to the woman he loved every night but only being able to look was torture and tested his patience.

Although Kelvin had high endurance, able to stay sober through self-harm when being manipulated, never touching Madison, his proud self-control was useless when it cto Penelope.

Because Penelope was his one and only woman! She didn't even need to do anything; just standing there quietly was enough to drive Kelvin crazy! "Can you move a little away from me?" Penelope said, "That should be fine, right?" She believed it would be safe as long as they didn't touch! Kelvin buried his head in her neck. "No, just talk toto distract me." Penelope bit her lip.

She hadn't done anything; he was the one who hugged her first! Ridiculous! Now it seemed like it was her fault! "How about I sleep on the couch?" she suggested.

Kelvin's hand tightened. "Just stay like this, don't go." Penelope felt very uncomfortable.

"Just chatting is fine," Kelvin's lips brushed her ear. "Penelope it must have been hard when you gave birth En to Lucy." She was very weak at the time, frequently in and out of the hospital.

Ten months of pregnancy, all alone, Kelvin couldn't imagine how she got through it.

He wasn't there neither outside the delivery room nor to support her when she needed him.

He felt very guilty.

"It's all in the past," Penelope said, "No need to bring it up." Giving birth was indeed tough, the pain felt like someone was splitting her body with an axe, and she was fully conscious, feeling the pain devouring her will bit by bit.

"It would have been better if I was there," Kelvin said hoarsely, "I could have been there for you." Penelope lost her sleepiness and opened her eyes to look out the window.

The moonlight was bright, casting a silvery glow into the hospital room. Very gentle.

She could clearly see Kelvin's changes, but she didn't dare to fully trust him.

Maybe it was just a facade, a tactic to keep her by using a gentle approach to make her stay.

Kelvin's share transfer agreement meant that Lucy legally becamera! shareholder of the Davis Group, tying her to the Davis Group forever.

Penelope understood this, which was why she tried so hard to grab then share transfer agreement and tear it up. But Kelvin succeeded.

Fortunately, Penelope comforted herself, she had left herself a way out.

She still had Sam.

No matter what, Sam was still hidden and safe.

If Kelvin reverted to his old selfish and domineering ways, she would lose Lucy but still have Sam! Suddenly, her waist felt ticklish.

"Kelvin..." Penelope protested, "Why are you touching my birthmark?"
