Penelope realized the seriousness of the matter. “Mom, we have to find Robbie before Allison does. He’s got a

bunch of my videos and photos. If they are exposed, I’d be ruined. The Lindberg Corporation would call off the

engagement for sure.”

Leah was acutely aware of the severity of the matter. Robbie was nothing but a street thug without any real

principles. He’d dance to the tune of whoever flashed the most cash.

Penelope had approached Robbie once before to keep him quiet about the compromising material. She asked him

to pin the photos on Allison. The issue resurfacing now was a bad sign. If Allison got Robbie first, Penelope’s world

would come crashing down.

“Are you still in contact with Robbie? How many videos and photos does he have?” Leah probed.

“Just… six months ago,” Penelope admitted. “I met with Robbie, gave in to his threats just once, and I haven’t seen

him since.”

Leah slammed her hand on the table in frustration. “Penelope! You’ve seriously

disappointed me!”

Penelope pleaded, “Mom, I didn’t want to, but Robbie threatened me. Then I just… did it.” Moving closer to comfort

her mother, she began to massage Leah’s shoulders. “I haven’t been in touch with Robbie since then.”

Margo chimed in, “Ladies, there’s no need to fret. Allison’s folks haven’t found Robbie either. I’ve got my cousin

watching the haunts Robbie frequents. We’ll know the moment he shows up.”

Leah tried to stay positive. “Let’s hope for the best. Allison hasn’t found him yet. For now, we’re not facing the

worst of it.” She turned to Penelope. “Did you create that account?”

Penelope couldn’t lie. “It was Nathalie’s idea. The plan was hers. I’m sorry, Mom. I’ll be good from now on, I

promise.”

Despite her stern words, Leah’s love for her daughter was unwavering. Penelope, the cherished girl of the Flanagan

family, could do no wrong. Whenever Christopher scolded her, she would hide behind Leah, who invariably took her

side.

Holding Penelope’s hand, Leah said with heartfelt emotion, “Oh, Penelope, I nearly lost my life giving birth to you.

How could I not cherish you? I hate Allison as much as you do, but now’s not the time to clash with her. You need to

get well, conceive Lucian’s child quickly, and cement your place so you can marry into the Lindberg family in style.

Then, you’ll make your comeback in showbiz. I’ll manage your future opportunities. Once you’re back in the

spotlight, Allison won’t matter. There’s no need to squabble with her over petty issues.”
