Chapter 881 Spill It

How can this be? What's so great about her marrying a man who can lose it at any moment like a lunatic?

Penelope came to her senses, and resentment began flooding her. It's just marrying Lucas. With his mania, what's

there to be smug about? Given the current prevalence of domestic abuse incidents, it's hard to tell what kind of life

she's leading at the Nolan family home. What's with her attitude?

She abandoned her earlier admiration for Ashlyn and stared at her with disdain. “You'll regret this, Ashlyn. This

time, we have successfully cooperated with Haddock Group, and when the time comes, you can only look at me

with admiration.”

“Really? I wish you both a fruitful collaboration, then,” Ashlyn said while appearing indifferent.

What exactly does Dixon want from Yates Group? Or was his so-called deal the collaboration with Yates Group

today?

She felt a little uneasy.

These two idiots, Penelope and Mary, didn't do anything stupid, did they? Dixon's tactics and intellect are

undoubtedly more than ten times greater than theirs. There's more to this birthday party, for sure.

Ashlyn arched her eyebrow, and with an icy gaze, she slowly approached Penelope. “Tell me, what's the

collaboration between Dixon and you guys?”

Her tone was not one of inquiry but of command.

Penelope was already a little shorter than her step-sister, and the moment she raised her head, she found Ashlyn's

shadow covering her.

Her heart almost stopped for a moment.

“W-What are you trying to do? Was hitting me just now not enough? What else do you want?”

Penelope paled and could not help but take a half-step back, leaving her body firmly pressed against the edge of

the cold sink.

Ashlyn stared down at her condescendingly. “Penelope, I'll let you out as long as you tell me the truth. If not... I can't

guarantee that you'll be able to walk out of this door safely.”

She played with a sharp dagger that gleamed under the light with her fingertips, and the sight of her doing that

made Penelope look even paler.

“You lunatic! Are you out of your mind? I'm going to sue you for intentional injury!”

“Cut the crap and spill it!” Ashlyn did not have the patience to watch her whining. She pressed the dagger she was

holding onto her step-sister's smooth face. “You'd better tell the truth.”

Penelope was trembling all over, angry and terrified. “We... We brought the Yates Group investment project, which

is to build a wig factory in Lake City. Mr. Haddock said he had a ready-made factory and all we had to do was sign

the paperwork.”

“When the time comes, you'll be able to save a sum of money from building a factory, and you and your mom are

going to take that money, right? You guys got some nerve,” Ashlyn said, raising her brow.

Penelope did not expect Ashlyn to be so clever, and she quickly denied it, “No. We have to return the money to

Yates Group. We can't take it for ourselves. That's against the law.”

“Is that so?” Ashlyn looked at her step-sister's ashen face with an ice-cold expression. “Just this matter?”

“I didn't lie to you,” Penelope said, shaking her head violently in terror as she thought the dagger's tip was about to

pierce her skin.

“If you lie, I'll show you no mercy!” Ashlyn gave her a deep look before turning to leave.

Penelope stared at her straight and slender back while clutching her chest, her heart beating wildly.

Why does Ashlyn care so much about our collaboration with Haddock Group? What exactly does she want to know?

She exhaled deeply as she collapsed to the ground.

Ashlyn was so scary just now. What should I do? Mr. Haddock said that the collaboration with us is a secret. If he

finds out that I've told Ashlyn...

Fear gripped her. Does Ashlyn want to ruin this collaboration? No... No way. She doesn't have that kind of power.

Collaborating with Mr. Haddock is a great thing. That money is not a small amount. When the time comes, my mom

and I will have it in our hands, and we'll be rich with nothing to worry about.

Penelope immediately supported herself and stood up from the floor. In the future, I'll have wealth, status, and

identity as opposed to now when I have nothing. What's there to be afraid of? She gathered her courage once

more as she imagined the glorious life she would lead in the future. Ashlyn is nothing. She merely had a dagger

today.
