Chapter 590 Nicole Faints! Penelope forced a bitter smile. "Who am I really?" Once, she was Penelope, the only daughter of the Cooper family, then Kelvin's wife, she was now revealed to be the heiress of the Mitchell family.
She had so many identities and stories.
"You are my daughter." Nicole's tearful voice broke through. "You were supposed to be called Isabella." "So, I am Isabella, not Penelope," Penelope said.
Nicole looked at her with tear-filled eyes.
In LA, you could easily find out about Penelope by asking around.
Nicole had heard sthings at those afternoon teas and gatherings of wealthy ladies.
At the time, she just treated it as a story, a piece of gossip, listening casually without caring or taking it to heart.
But now thinking about it, Nicole felt heart-wrenching pain.
Penelope, once the young hostess of the largest wealthy family in LA, the Davis family, had such a tragic background! Because of Vincent's death, Connor's imprisonment, and Grace becoming a vegetative state, Penelope was thrown into a mental hospital by Kelvin to atone, for two whole years.
Nicole couldn't imagine how Penelope endured and survived those seven hundred- plus days and nights in the mental hospital.
However, for Penelope, the mental hospital was just the beginning.
Nicole knew the humiliation she suffered when she first married Kelvin, the determination when she jumped into the sea.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEvery tNicole recalled one of these events, her heart ached a bit more.
She thought it was just the experience of an irrelevant person, but it turned out that the one who suffered all this was her biological daughter! Her daughter, who should have been living a privileged, carefree, and happy life.
She never expected her to endure so much suffering! "My poor..." Before she could finish, Nicole clutched her chest tightly, her body slowly hunching over, her face pale.
"Aunt Nicole!" Brandon said.
"Mrs. Mitchell!" Penelope said.
Brandon and Penelope rushed forward together.
Nicole had already closed her eyes tightly, completely unconscious.
"Aunt Nicole, Aunt Nicole, wake up!" Brandon shouted anxiously. "Quick, take her to the hospital, call an ambulance!" Penelope opened her mouth, wanting to call out "Mom," but in the end, no sound cout.
Even if she called now, Nicole wouldn't hear it.
Besides, it might be too early to call her that now.
Moreover, Penelope couldn't accept her true identity just yet.
The ambulance arrived quickly, and Brandon jumped into the car. "I'll go to the hospital, don't worry." Penelope nodded. "I'll leave it to you then." "Okay." Brandon gave her a deep look before the car door closed.
That look was indescribable, filled with countless deep meanings.
Penelope stared blankly as the ambulance drove away.
She hoped Nicole would be okay.
She didn't want just to find out who her biological parents were, only to lose them forever immediately. "Nicole's condition doesn't seem serious." Kelvin stood beside her. "She probably fainted from emotional agitation; she'll be fine after a while." "Kelvin," Penelope said.
"I'm here," Kelvin said.
She slowly turned to face him. "Do you think I am really the missing heiress of the Mitchell family?" "Did you ask your father?" Kelvin countered. "What did he say?" "Dad said I'm not his biological daughter, that he and Mom adoptedback then," Penelope said. Kelvin pressed his lips together slightly.
Things had developed to this point, and Penelope's true identity was quite clear.
She just couldn't accept it psychologically.
"Penelope." Kelvin looked deep into her eyes. "No matter whose daughter you are, you always have two identities that follow you closely, which no one can take away." "Two identities?" Penelope asked.
"One, you are my wife, Kelvin's wife. Two, you are Lucy's mother," Kelvin said. Penelope chuckled lightly. "But these two identities, in the beginning, were not what I wanted. Kelvin, you forcedto marry you; you held my hand and signed the marriage certificate. And Lucy, at first, I wanted to abort her; I didn't want to carry your child, didn't want to bear children for you. Because our first child was miscarried." "But, but..." Penelope lowered her eyes. "The doctor said my body couldn't handle another abortion. If I had an abortion, I wouldn't be able to conceive again." That was how Penelope kept the child and gave birth.
She was very glad she didn't go through with the abortion, having two lovely, lively, and smart children. Kelvin misunderstood her meaning. "Do you regret giving birth to Lucy?" "No, I just want to say that in my life, there hasn't been a single identity that I willingly wanted; all of them were forced upon me," Penelope said.
"There is one, Penelope." Kelvin's voice was low. "You are the chief designer of 'Adoring Cupid.' This is a career you chose for yourself, a job you love." "But joining 'Adoring Cupid' wasn't my intention," Penelope said. "What was your initial career plan?" Kelvin asked.
"I want to create my own jewelry brand," Penelope replied. "I want affordable jewelry, priced at a few hundred dollars, so every girl can have beautiful, sparkling accessories." The first thing that cto Kelvin's mind was the jewelry brand from Molly's design drafts.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhy did he suddenly think of Molly? "Kelvin," Penelope's voice interrupted his thoughts. "I want to see Isabella." "Okay," Kelvin said.
"Bring Madison, too," Penelope added.
"Okay." Kelvin agreed to all her requests.
The night was deep.
But the King Manor was far from peaceful, withhidden undercurrents.
Penelope went upstairs to Lucy's room.
"Thalia, I don't want to stay in the room; I want to go play Lucy said. "Why do have to stay here all the time?" "Because your dad has guests." Penelope made up a random excuse.
Nicole had just left, and Isabella and Madison were coming later How could she let Lucy see all this? The e content is on novelenglish.net! "Guests?" Lucy asked.
"Yes, they are discussing important matters in the living room, and you running around would disturb them," Penelope said. Lucy nodded. "I see." "Yes." Penelope patted her head. "Finish your homework, take a bath, and go to bed.
The maid will cto tell you a story and keep you company." "Thalia, do you have to meet the guests too?" Lucy asked.
"Yes," Penelope said.
Lucy pouted. "Alright, I wanted you to tella story, because Mommy isn't here." At the mention of Mommy, Lucy's mood instantly dropped.
In Lucy's world, Madison had changed too much.
