Ice-Cold Ceo Crazy Love By Christin Donald ( Edward ) Chapter 308

Chapter 308

The red car whizzed past, speeding away.

Susan’s expression shifted dramatically when she saw Penny on the ground, looking deathly pale.

“Penny, are you okay?” Judith also snapped to her senses, standing up and running desperately to Penny’s side.

“Your leg!” Susan’s heart sank at the sight of Penny’s leg pinned under the car.

She had always been wary of Penny, but what happened next?

Penny had risked her life to save her.

Regret, guilt, and gratitude tangled in Susan’s heart, leaving her feeling overwhelmed.

“Susan, it’s alright,” Penny said through her pain, soothing her gently, “It’s just a broken leg. I’m not going anywhere.”

“Don’t talk like that!” Susan’s gaze turned steely. “We’re heading to the hospital, right now!”

Thirty minutes later, at the hospital, Judith was nervously walking back and forth outside the

emergency room.

Susan was by her side, her face etched with seriousness.

All she could do was silently pray that Penny’s leg would be okay.

After all, Penny had gotten hurt because of her!

“Mom, how is Penny?” Eason rushed over in a hurry.

“I don’t know,” Judith was also panicking, “The car went right over her leg. I can’t imagine her pain.”

Saying this, Judith couldn’t help but cry.

They had spent decades being together.

Besides, Penny was such a gentle and caring person.

Judith truly loved her like her own daughter.

Though now, she was wholly focused on compensating Susan for her past grievances, it didn’t mean she didn’t care for Penny anymore.

Especially considering Penny was injured while saving Susan.

“It’ll be okay; it has to be,” Eason could only hold Judith, continuously whispering reassurances.

“Susan.” Ben arrived soon after, his face etched with worry. He went straight to Susan and wrapped her in a comforting hug.

Susan’s hand was trembling, cold as ice.

Susan, pale–faced, looked at him, “Ben… she… she saved me. The car lost control suddenly, and if Penny

hadn’t pushed me away, I would be the one lying there.”

Susan’s voice shook violently.

Brushing away her tears, Judith spoke softly, “Susan, don’t beat yourself up. It was just an accident.”

Yeah, it was just an accident.

Nobody expected that car to suddenly lose control.

But how could Susan not blame herself?

If she hadn’t been adamant about driving them, maybe this accident wouldn’t have happened.

And, Penny’s leg wouldn’t have been injured.

Remembering Penny’s injury, Susan suddenly clenched Ben’s hand tightly, “Ben, the car…”

Ben sald reassuringly, “Don’t worry. I’ve already got someone on it. That area’s always packed and right near a traffic light with plenty of cameras. We’ll replace that car in no time.”

“We must replace that car.” Judith clenched her teeth, “If anything happens to Penny, I’ll make them pay.”

“We will replace the car.” Ben nodded affirmatively.

What he kept to himself was a nagging suspicion lurking in his heart.

Could it be that this car was related to Penny, or even arranged by her?

If so, this act of rescue was worth pondering.

Regardless, he would investigate this incident thoroughly.

A bit later, the doors of the operating room swung open, and Penny was rolled out on a gurney.

It was just a local anesthesia, and Penny was still lucid.

Seeing everyone waiting, she smiled slightly, “Don’t worry. I’m okay.”

Judith approached, taking her hand, and then turned to the doctor, “Doctor, how’s Penny doing?”

The doctor responded, “Miss Nicholas has a serious fracture in her leg, but fortunately, you got her here. quickly. She should recover with treatment, though her right foot might not regain full strength. There could be some noticeable difference in her walk compared to her left foot.”

The doctor put it mildly.

But everyone could read between the lines.

This meant Penny might limp in the future.

Judith’s tears immediately fell.

No one knew better than her how much Pennw.oursued perfection.

crowd.

Then she devoted her entire day to mastering etiquette.

Only when she was as good as, or even better than the others did she relent.

Later, she took up piano.

She would practice from morning to night, never stopping until she earned her teacher’s praise..

Such a determined person, and now she’s hobbled!

With Penny’s pride, how could she bear it?

But Penny was surprisingly calm.

From the moment she extended her foot, she had been prepared for this.

She thought it through clearly.

Even if it resulted in her leg being completely incapacitated, not just a limp, it was still a worthwhile trade–off.

By losing her leg, she won back their love and attention.

By losing her leg, she earned Susan’s guilt and sincerity.

And from now on, whenever she walked, they would see her limp and remember how she got hurt!

She wanted them to feel guilty for the rest of their lives.

Only then would she truly have her amulet.

Penny thought it all through, making her exceptionally calm.

She reached out, tenderly wiping Judith’s tears, “Mom, no tears, okay? It’s just a limp. I’m a princess,

after all. Who’s going to have the nerve to laugh at me?”

Judith tried to smile, “Of course not. My Penny, you’re always the best.”

Penny just smiled in response.

“Penny.” Susan bit her lip, “I’m so sorry.”

Seeing Penny like this, she felt incredibly guilty.

Penny was such a good person.

She just lost her composure that night.

It was just because she felt so insecure.

She was always on guard against her, but Penny risked her life to save her.

O

This left Susan feeling as though she was unfairly projecting her own insecurities onto someone with a

much nobler heart.

She was the petty one while Penny was the noble.

“Susan, it’s okay,” Penny said softly with a smile, “The important thing is you’re safe. Just think about. Mom and Dad. What would they have done if something happened to you? This is really for the best.”

Judith felt like crying again, unable to help but grip Penny’s hand tightly, “Don’t talk like that. Whether it’s you or Susan, Mom would be heartbroken if anything happened to either of you.”

“I always knew I was Mom’s favorite,” Penny said with a playful smirk.

Seeing Penny in that state, Judith’s heart softened.

She even started to wonder if she’d been unintentionally ignoring Penny lately.

After all, Penny was still just a little girl.

Judith told herself that in her efforts to make amends with Susan, she mustn’t overlook Penny.

She had promised to treat them both like her own daughters, and she was determined to keep that promise.
