Chapter 568 Live With Her and Don't Need Daddy Anymore, Okay? His gaze was tender and gentle, his fingertips continuously caressing Lucy's cheek, his eyes filled with longing and reluctance.
The day Lucy regained consciousness was also the day she left him.
Such a lovely Lucy; how could he bear to let her go? Penelope turned her head away, not wanting to witness the scene.
Although Lucy was young, she sensed something was amiss.
"Daddy," she asked, "are you going on a business trip?" "Business trip?" Kelvin shook his head. "No, I've been in LA all along; there's no need to go anywhere." "Then why do I feel like you're going to leave me? Your eyes look different from usual," Lucy said. "I thought you were going to Mommy's place, leavingalone at home, waiting for you to cback." "How could that be?" Kelvin bent down to pick her up and placed her on the dining chair.
Lucy pouted, "When is Mommy coming back? I haven't seen her for a long time. Last night, I even dreamed of her." "Do you miss her that much?" Kelvin said.
"Doesn't Daddy miss her?" Lucy said.
Kelvin took a sip of coffee, "Lucy." "Yes?" Lucy said.
"Withby your side every day, you still miss Mommy. If you like her so much, then go live with her. Don't need Daddy anymore, okay?" Kelvin said.

Penelope was also stunned. Why did he suddenly say such things? The atmosphere becawkward.
Lucy suddenly wiped her eyes, and then tears started falling like a broken string of beads.
The more she wiped, the more tears came! Penelope immediately glared at Kelvin, leaned over, and helped Lucy wipe her tears, "What's wrong, Lucy? Don't cry, don't cry." Lucy didn't say anything; she just kept crying silently, her sobs shaking her body. Seeing this, Penelope's heart ached.
What was Kelvin doing, saying such things to make Lucy cry? Indeed, men were best at making women of all ages angry! Kelvin sighed and cover, "Lucy, I'm sorry." Lucy cried and asked, "Daddy, why are you saying sorry..." She was crying so hard she started hiccupping.
How heartbroken she was! Penelope glared at Kelvin again! Kelvin pursed his lips, "I shouldn't have said those things about you going with mom and not needing dad." "Exactly. Daddy and Mommy are both the most important people to me. I don't want to lose either of you." The more Lucy spoke, the sadder she became, and she couldn't hold back anymore, leaning into Penelope's arms, crying so hard she almost passed out.
"Kelvin!" Penelope gritted her teeth, "You're too much." "Sorry, I didn't expect Lucy to react so strongly," Kelvin said.
"Why are you saying this now? You're clearly upsetting her." Penelope said.
Lucy was crying. Penelope was blaming him.
Kelvin sighed again, "I just wanted to test Lucy's attitude. We're going to the city hall later, and Lucy will definitely be with you. I said I wouldn't fight for custody, and I meant it." Nearby, the butler, who had just placed the last bowl of porridge on the table, was shocked when he heard "city hall." Kelvin and Penelope were going to the city hall? Were they getting a divorce?

No, absolutely not, the butler thought. This couldn't be handled so casually! He had to think of a way. Taking advantage of no one noticing him, the butler quietly left the dining room.
Kelvin and Penelope were so busy tending to Lucy that they were completely oblivious to everything else.
Penelope wiped Lucy's tears and said, "Seeing Lucy so reluctant to part with you, crying like this, are you satisfied? Are you happy?" "I..." Kelvin said.
Forgot it; the the more he said, the more mistakes he made.
No need to explain.
It was indeed his fault for asking such a question.
Kelvin didn't expect Lucy to react so strongly. Thinking about it, he felt a bit comforted in his empty heart, knowing that Lucy still cared about him.
Lucy would always be a bond between him and Penelope.
"Daddy, in my heart, you and Mommy are equally important," Lucy said, her eyes filled with tears.
Her aggrieved look resembled Penelope's, making Kelvin's heart melt.
"Yes, I understand." Kelvin patted her head, "You like Mommy and also like Daddy." Lucy added, "I can stay with Mommy and also stay with Daddy." "Right. Now, let's eat." Kelvin said.

The servant brought the backpack, and Kelvin took it, helping Lucy put it on, "Daddy has something to do today and can't take you to school. Let the driver and servant take you, okay?" "Okay." Lucy obediently got into the car, sat in the child seat in the back, rolled down the window, and waved goodbye.
She didn't know that today, her beloved Daddy and Mommy were going to get a divorce.
The car gradually drove away.
Penelope felt a sense of emptiness in her heart.
Beside her, Kelvin was also silent.
A sense of unease hung in the air, a lingering residue of last night's events, casting a shadow over both of them! "Alright, we..." Penelope was about to say something when a black business car sped towards the gate! Who was coming? Before Penelope could recognize it, Kelvin's voice was already in her ear, "Grandpa?" What? Liam was here?
The car door opened, and the amber cane appeared first, coming into om view. Despite his urgentactions, Liam's aged body moved with a slow and clumsy grace. After all, he was old and not very mobile. "Grandpa." Kelvin went to support him, "Why did you cover so early without any notice?" Liam steadied himself and replied impatiently, "If I didn't come, something big would happen!" Compared to Liam's urgency, Kelvin seemed particularly calm.
He looked as usual, "What big thing could happen? The Davis family is stable, the Davis Group is steady, and everything is in order. Grandpa, you might be overreacting." "The Davis family mansion only has me, an old man. As long as I'm still breathing, everything is fine and peaceful," Liam replied. "But this King Manor is your residence. You are the head of the Davis family and also a part of the Davis family!" "The King Manor is certainly a part of the Davis family," Kelvin said.
"So, I can't let anything happen to The King Manor!" Liam said.
