Chapter 237 I Will Return It to Kelvin "Of course not!" She had no intention of staying! Penelope, both angry and embarrassed, couldn't stand it any longer. After thinking it over, she lifted her high heel and stomped on Kelvin's foot with the thin heel! This man was arrogant, conceited, and selfish! Clutching the crown, she turned and got into Brian's car.
To be honest, Penelope felt very uneasy carrying such a valuable piece of jewelry with her.
What if she lost it or got robbed? Now everyone in LA knew that the Heart of the Ocean was in her possession. What if a thief or robber cto take it? Kelvin had clearly given her a huge challenge! Penelope sighed countless times, fiddling with the crown in her hands.
Such a fine item, yet in her hands, it felt no more valuable than a toy bought from a small shop.
By all accounts, she should protect the Heart of the Ocean well! "Mrs. Davis, what's troubling you?" Brian asked, "Can I help?" Penelope raised the crown. "What do you think I should do with it?" She couldn't possibly wear it every day.
If she locked it up, she'd have to buy a safe.
If she wore it all the time, she'd be afraid of losing it. Carrying 600 -million-dollar- jewelry, she'd have to clutch her bag tightly wherever she went.
Brian remained silent.

Hearing the noise, Connor cout of the bedroom. "Penelope, you're back." "Yes, Dad, you're still up?" "I couldn't sleep well until you got home," Connor replied, "You look so beautiful tonight. Where did you go?" "I attended a company event." Connor nodded and then noticed what she was holding. "What's that?" "A crown." "Looks beautiful. Where did you buy it?" Connor laughed. "The rhinestones look so real, sparkling like that. And the gem in the center, only fake stones have that kind of luster. If a real sapphire had that texture, it would be worth a fortune." Penelope forced a smile. "Yes, it looked nice, so I bought it." She couldn't explain much more.
"If you bought it, you should wear it, not just hold it." Connor, like an old child, took the crown from her hands. "Con, letput it on my precious daughter myself." Penelope didn't dare move.
The crown on her head had sweight, feeling quite heavy.
She was afraid that if she tilted her head, the crown would fall off.
"Good taste, Penelope," Connor praised, "The crown looks good, and you look good.
My daughter has grown up and is getting more beautiful." "Thank you, Dad. I'll go take a shower now." After wearing it for a while, Penelope quickly took it off.
She looked around and casually placed the crown on a doll's head next to the TV.
It looked quite fitting there and was inconspicuous.
No one would think that a priceless crown was just sitting on a doll's head. Yawning, Penelope went to the bathroom to remove her makeup and take a shower.

"Penelope, Penelope!" She reluctantly got up to open the door. "Dad, what's going on so early in the morning?" "Check your phone!" Connor said, grabbing the crown from the doll's head," Netizens say this thing is called the Heart of the Ocean, and Kelvin bought it for 600 million dollars for you?" Penelope felt helpless.
Connor, wearing his reading glasses, continued, "They also say it's the only one in the world, a relic. And they all know you are Mrs. Davis! Look, there are even photos!" The photos were taken when they entered and left the exhibition hall, with the media constantly snapping pictures.
But the most widely circulated and discussed photo was this one- As they left the jewelry exhibition, bodyguards held black umbrellas to shield her and Kelvin. Her white dress and his black trousers formed a stark contrast.
The photo only captured their lower parts.

Connor kept asking, "Penelope, is this true?" "Yes," Penelope nodded.
"So this crown is really worth 600 million dollars?" Penelope nodded again.
Connor suddenly becflustered, unsure whether to keep holding it or put it down!
She quickly took it back. "Dad, I will return it to Kelvin. He insisted on Saidrı didn't take giving it toand said if I' it he'd throw it in the trash. I had no choice but to bring it hfor a few days." "How can you just leave it here? This house, this building, no, the whole street isn't worth as much as it!" Penelope kept reassuring him. "Dad, it's okay. Just treat it like a worthless trinket!" She placed the crown back on the doll's head.
Connor sighed, saying, "Penelope, it's not the value of the gift that concerns s feelings for you! He's ve me, but Kelvin's feelings so good to you and publicly acknowledged you as his wife in front of all the people in LA. Can you really get a divorce?" "I'll handle it, Dad. Don't worry." "The Davis family hasn't agreed to the divorce. What can you do?" Connor asked.
"I have a way," Penelope replied. "Dad, you should go to the nursing hto be with Mom. She'd be upset if she woke up and didn't see you."
Connor remembered and quickly turned to leave, but not without saying, "If anything happens, your must teme. We're a family, and we should discuss things together. I know you've grown up, but you'll always be a child to me." Once Connor left, Penelope sighed in relief.
