CHAPTER 1169 WHO ELSE BUT ME
Flint took a glass of wine over to Penny and smiled. "Hello, Ms. Smith."
Penny returned the greeting, "Hello, Mr. Quinton. Thanks for bringing your child to my daughter's birthday party."
Flint chuckled. "It's good for the kids to mingle around and connect. I'd like to mingle around with Ms. Smith too!" All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
Penny frowned when she sensed the flirtatious tone in Flint's voice.
Flint continued, "After all, we're both single parents. I can understand the troubles you're going through, Ms. Smith. We should get to know each other better..."
Penny cut him off, "I'm sorry, Mr. Quinton, you're mistaken. I'm not a single parent."
Flint was stunned.
When I sent my child to the kindergarten two years ago and first met Penny, I heard the teachers gossiping about her being a single mother! Since when did she get married?
Penny waved at Nathan, who was entertaining Queenie. "Hubby, come over."
Nathan smiled as he approached them. "Honey, what's up?"
Penny introduced them, "Mr. Quinton, this is my husband, Queenie's biological father, Nathan Cross."
Queenie's biological father?
Flint had heard that Penny had been raped by a drunkard. She had supposedly given birth to Queenie even though she was unmarried.
Oh my gosh! The single beauty and the president of the Cross Group, Penny Smith, chose to marry the drunkard who violated her!
Flint was heartbroken.
He sized Nathan up and remarked, "Ah, Mr. Cross. What do you do for a living?”
Nathan glanced at Flint and replied plainly, "I was working for the military, but I'm now temporarily unemployed."
This made Flint enraged.
Penny's husband is not only a drunkard, but he's also a good-for-nothing who depends on his wife!
He sneered at Nathan, "If you're unemployed, just say so! There's no need to add the word temporary behind it! You're obviously living off your wife! You should be ashamed!"
Penny turned flustered and tried to explain the situation, but Flint had already turned to her with a sympathizing look. "Ms. Smith, you're such a beautiful woman, but you're wasting your future with such a good-for-nothing man!"
He then sneered at Nathan once more, "Brat, I don't want to comment on your life, but as a capable man, you should find a job instead of relying on your wife! Ms. Smith is such an outstanding woman. You don't deserve her! You should divorce her and stop wasting her time!"
Nathan smirked, "Who deserves her, if not me?"
Flint shouted out, "I do!"
He then turned to Penny and told her, "Ms. Smith, to tell you the truth, I've loved you for a long time. Although I don't have as much in assets as you, I am the boss of a large-scale factory! We're both
businessmen who share similar interests! I'm a single parent, and you were one too! We have similar interests and priorities! Ms. Smith, if you're willing to divorce him and marry me, I guarantee our careers will progress well."
