Chapter 286 Can't Find Penelope's Body Anymore "How should we bury her?" Timothy sighed. "We still haven't recovered anything." James replied, "The dead need a tombstone, so the living can mourn." Timothy glanced at Kelvin, frowned, and quickly cup with an idea. "Got it." He pulled up the surveillance footage from the jewelry department's meeting room.
Penelope often held meetings there, and the camera had captured her voice and movements.
Timothy edited out the parts where Penelope was speaking and played them on a loop next to Kelvin's ear.
Only Penelope's voice could wake Kelvin! "This season's designs are inspired by..." "The target audience for 'Adoring Cupid' is mainly young people in their twenties and thirties." "Mr. Foster, what do you think? Or should we let Mr. Davis decide?" This method worked very well.
After playing it several times, Kelvin's eyebrows twitched.
James exclaimed in surprise. "Look!" Timothy turned up the volume.
Penelope's voice echoed throughout the entire ward! Finally, Kelvin slowly opened his eyes, bloodshot. "Penelope." He was too familiar with her voice! A few seconds later, Kelvin's consciousness fully returned.
"Penelope!" Kelvin suddenly sat up, looking around.
"Where is she?" Kelvin asked excitedly, "I heard her talking! Where is she? Why can't I Sean lar??" Timothy didn't know how to answer him and silently turned off the recording.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe room instantly fell silent.
Kelvin seemed to be paused.
He stood there in a daze for a few seconds, then suddenly threw off the covers and got out of bed. "No, you must be lying to me. You hid her! Where is she? Give her back to me! I heard her talking!" Kelvin ran out of the ward barefoot. "Penelope, where are you!" "We divorced, I let you go, I gave you freedom! Don't hide from me; can you just see me?" The hallway was empty.
Only Brian stood there, coming to admit his guilt.
Although Brian knew everything.
But he said nothing and couldn't say anything.
Penelope was gone.
And she had jumped into the sea, right in front of Kelvin.
Brian wasn't even on the yacht at the time; he was on the shore.
This way, Brian could claim no responsibility and completely distance himself! Penelope had thought of him this way.
"Mr. Davis," Brian walked up to him. "They 're still searching the sea, but there's still no news of Mrs. Davis." Kelvin stared at him. "Brian." "Yes, Mr. Davis." "Didn't I tell you to stay with her at all times?" Kelvin questioned harshly, "Now you're here, where is she?" Brian remained silent.
"Answer me! Are you mute? Is this how you carry out the tasks I give you?" Brian knelt on one knee, head lowered. "Mr. Davis, it was my mistake. I deserve to die." Planning your weekend reading?

Brian fell to the ground in pain, then silently got up and knelt again.
Kelvin kicked him again.
"Useless!" he roared, "You can't even keep an eye on one person. What use are you to me?" In fact, he was also scolding himself, not just Brian.
"I told you to stay with her every step of the way, and you still lost her!" "She knew that if something happened to her, you'd be in trouble too, bearing all the responsibility! Penelope was so kind-hearted, I did it on purpose to make her hesitate, but..." "But she still didn't care about your life! Brian, you're really useless!" Kelvin cursed, about to kick him a third time.
Brian kept his head down, silently enduring.
Kelvin was his master, and he was his subordinate.
He had failed in his duty and deserved to bear his anger.
If this could make Kelvin feel a bit better, he didn't mind the punishment! "Enough, Kelvin!" Timothy caught up. "You just woke up, and you're getting so angry; it's not good for your health!" Kelvin laughed coldly. "Without her, what's the point of living healthily? Even if I live a long life, I'll be alone!" Beside him, there was no more Penelope! "Blaming Brian won't help. Penelope wasn't kidnapped, nor did something happen to her. Brian wasn't even on the yacht at the time," Timothy said, "It's not his fault." Kelvin understood this, of course.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe had nowhere to vent! He seemed to be scolding Brian, but with every word, he was also scolding himself! "Yes, it's my fault." Kelvin clenched his fists. "I should have kept an eye on her. I should have held her back, but I just watched her leap into the sea, light as a feather, right in front of me." Planning your weekend reading?

Happy reading! "Her last words towere goodbye forever." "Timothy, she said goodbye toforever." "She jumped into the ocean. Wasn't she afraid? The sea is so dark, the water so deep." "She didn't even leaveher body." Kelvin's Adam's apple bobbed, his face full of pain and sorrow.
Penelope was gone.
His world had collapsed.
Timothy could only say, "You need to slowly pull yourself together. There are still many things you need t handle. It's been three days and nights. I think we won't find Penelope's body. You should start preparing for her funeral." Kelvin didn't respond.
"Because of your reward, there are a lot of fishing boats still searching the sea, seriously disrupting normal order. Should we tell them to stop?" Timothy asked tentatively.
Because continuing the search would be futile.
Penelope had probably already moved to a place no one knew about! "Just three days, and you want to stop?" Kelvin slowly spoke, "Just three days, and you want to cut off my last hope completely?" Deep down, Kelvin knew that continuing the search was pointless.
But as long as someone was still searching for her body he hadam glimmer of hope, a thought to hold En onto. People live by holding onto hope! "Kelvin." Timothy sighed. "We've missed the golden window for rescue. There's no chance she made it."
"Maybe she was washed up on another beach by the waves? Maybe someone saved her Maybe she jumped into the sea on purpose, but actually swam away from me!" Kelvin suddenly becagitated. "She jumped in, swam to the other side, and then left LA in the chaos, escaping far away!" The veins on his forehead were so visible, and a hint of joy appeared on his handsface.
