Pampered by My Ex-husband (Penny and Orlando)

Chapter 217 You Are More Than Worthy Of Him

Chapter 217 You Are More Than Worthy Of Him

It was well into the night when Penny saw the IV drip finish and removed the needle.

But just as she straightened up, Orlando woke up and opened his eyes, looking at her.

"Mr. Fletcher, you're awake?"

Orlando's voice was hoarse as he glanced at the ceiling and rubbed his temples.

"Hospital?"

"Yes, Mr. Fletcher, you had a fever."

"Why are you here?"

"My relative is also hospitalized here, and I happened to run into you. Are you feeling better now?"

Orlando's back was still in pain, but the medicine had alleviated the discomfort, and his body was no

longer burning with fever.

He let out a sigh of relief and thought about his grandfather's actions this time, his face turning

completely dark.

Using the Fletcher Group's work as a shield was no longer effective now. Rex was determined to make

that woman bear his child.

He sneered.

Hearing his cold laughter, Penny knew that Old Mr. Fletcher had thoroughly annoyed him.

She saw Orlando pick up his phone and call Zane.

"Check if the Stuart family has contacted Rex again today."

Last time, he had given them a warning. If the Stuart family still dared to do so, he wouldn't show any

mercy.

In less than five minutes, Zane's call came in.

"Mr. Fletcher, Cason did indeed call Rex."

Orlando's face turned terrifying in an instant. "Block all of the Stuart family's recent business."

Last time, he had shown some mercy, but they didn't appreciate it.

Penny sat by his side, listening to his cold and disgusted instructions.

But she couldn't defend anything.

Her father should have anticipated this consequence even before her father made that call.

Orlando was not someone the Stuart family could control.

After hanging up the phone, Orlando looked at Penny.

There was no expression on Penny's face as she simply asked, "Mr. Fletcher, would you like some

water?"

Her eyes were bright and clear as if she had no interest in his family affairs.

"Yes."

Penny got up and brought a glass of water, placing it in his palm.

Orlando thought of her husband and furrowed his brows.

"Who in your family is hospitalized?"

"My husband."

Raising his eyebrows, he sneered, "syphilis?"

Penny had initially gotten up to pour herself a glass of water, but upon hearing this, she plopped back

down on the chair, looking at him in disbelief.

Orlando thought that she was still unaware of her husband's infidelity and said in a low voice, "Just

kidding."

Penny felt a mix of anger and amusement, which eventually turned into helplessness.

"Mr. Fletcher, it's better not to make such jokes." Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Orlando himself didn't have much of a sense of humor, but his mouth could be quite venomous at

times, like when he initially mistook Penny for a woman in that industry.

When he turned cold, he could be quite heartless.

Hearing her words, Orlando just quietly held the water glass.

This person always defended her husband, but she had no idea how many times he had betrayed her.

It was pitiful.

"Perry, how did you meet your husband?"

It was well into the night now, and the lights in the hospital room were dim, with a quiet atmosphere

surrounding them, occasionally interrupted by the sound of nurses doing their rounds in the hallway.

"He was introduced to me by our elders, but he wasn't very pleased with me."

Upon hearing this, Orlando couldn't help but reply almost instinctively, "Shouldn't he go see an eye

doctor?"

The corners of Penny's lips twitched, and she couldn't hold back a smile upon hearing his words.

"People have different preferences, and besides, I'm not a currency that everyone should like. Even if I

were, there are still some so-called cultured individuals who spit on it. It's fine as long as I've come to

terms with it."

Her eyes were clear and transparent, and as she spoke, there was even a hint of regret.

"Speaking of which, I'm not worthy of him either."

"Don't underestimate yourself."

Orlando's tone was cold as he spoke, and his voice was low and husky due to his illness.

"You are more than worthy of him."
