Penny stood by the sidelines watching the Adkins lawyers and Darlington Adkins carry Osvaldo away. He didn’t look at her, not even a side glance or a goodbye. Osvaldo had willingly asked her to stay.
She should be happy right?
She should be glad her father has shielded her from his madness. From his danger.
She was so used to seeing him act normal that she had forgotten he was mad. That he’s dangerous. He could harm her at any ti.
He had done it before.
But why did she feel a certain ache in her heart at his coldness? Osvaldo would never treat her this way no matter what. He would never let her out of his sight.
Penny wanted to rush to him, but she held herself. She had no idea why she was feeling this way. This man is clearly dangerous, he’s bad for her.
Maybe she felt this way because she’s been with him for months. He’s the first real person who never abused her for what she looked like or discriminated against her. He has loved her for her imperfection.
The first real person who actually helped her than mocking her.
He had rather transford her life in less than a month. It was clear he needed help, and she couldn’t abandon him.
"Mr Osvaldo," Penny called walking over to where he was. And for the first ti since the incident, he t her gaze. All words finished from her mouth as she stared at him.
"You should stay back Penguin. I have urgent matters to deal with for now." Osvaldo said calmly.
"I know, but how do I get my daily tea?"."
"Barnaby will deliver it to you by tomorrow." He said calmly and then turned to leave. Penny watched his back calmly till he was out of sight completely.
What did she do?
Osvaldo is nothing to her. He’s her fake husband and nothing more. She involuntarily placed her palm on her chest as she stared at the door he walked through.
Had she made the right decision?
"It’s a good thing you decided to stay Penelope. You should not go back to that household, that man is dangerous." Mary spat.
"It’s true uncle, they’ve erased the videos from the internet completely. Anyone who posts it will automatically get flagged on all social dia platforms." Pascal said. This was sothing his dia connection could not do.
How was that even possible?
It was clear the Adkins family still held as much power as before. It’s only a matter of ti before they rise back up again. That is if the heir is willing.
"That is good. At least they’ve played their part. It is up to you now to stay away from that boy." Barry turned to Penelope who still stared out the door.
"Are you alright Penny?" Keal asked and she nodded.
"Xavier, can I have a word with you?" Barry said to his brother and both n stepped away.
"I think your child is attached to the madman now." Barry started. Xavier hated to admit it but it was true. It is clear as day that Penelope was now attached to the man. The sadness in her eyes said it all.
"I know," Xavier stated. He knew he had to find a way to separate them, but he had no idea how.
"We need to separate them and quickly. Don’t think that because they let her stay that the Adkins lawyers will not return for her.
When next they co Xavier, they’ll take your child away." Xavier growled silently at his brother’s words. No one can take his child, it doesn’t matter what contract she signed with them.
"But there’s a way we can avoid that from happening. But we need to act quickly."
"What is it?"
"We have to take Penny out of the country like we did with my daughter. That way, she’ll be free from this madness. Since her mother didn’t let her further her education, we can use that as a dium." Barry initiated.
He would do anything to protect his niece. Seeing the ss created today and the previous scandal surrounding the Adkins and how they died, he didn’t want his niece tied up in the madness.
Polaris is a dangerous man, and it is obvious he has not forgotten Dewitt’s genius son. Billions have been spent on Osvaldo’s brain, he would do anything to get it.
"I’ll arrange for it. She’ll leave by the end of the week." Xavier said. Penny was his only child, he would never let anyone ruin her.

Outside the Bloodsworth mansion, Osvaldo stood next to his lawyers and grandfather as they waited for the chauffeur to make a turn before taking them away.
"Do you think it’s safe to leave her here master?" Timothy asked.
"She’s terrified."
"But isn’t that what she signed up for?" Willy asked. Penelope is the only one who can ta his madness, the only cure he has. They couldn’t just leave her here.
All three n were scared their master would go berserk again.
"Let her be. She’s safest here." Osvaldo said calmly. He was scared he would hurt her if she stayed with him. Besides, it was almost his heat period again. Last ti she had barely escaped, this ti, he had no idea what he would do.
It’s been so long since Penny touched him so he knew the pain, would be triple.
"Who’s Polaris?" Osvaldo asked them.
"He was a friend of your father’s. The man who betrayed Dewitt and ordered to kill your mother." Timothy said to see his young master smile.
It turns out he has been right all along. The man he hurt today was part of them. But what was he doing in the park?
"I’m afraid what we dreaded and tried to shield you from is coming master. What happened in the park today is no coincidence. It is obvious you’re being monitored." Treadwell said.
"It’s a good thing your father left you a few things to understand your situation."
"Why didn’t you show before now?" Osvaldo turned to look at him.
"W... We we’re waiting for the right t... Ti." Willy said cautiously.
"When I am normal?" Osvaldo asked and all three n nodded like their lives depended on it.
