From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 573 Making Monica Admit Defeat "I swear, I'm gonna find a way to sneak the kids outta here so Kelvin never sees them again. He'll regret it for the rest of his life! Oh, and before I go," Monica added, "I'm gonna make sure he knows the whole truth. Let him know he has a son who never acknowledged him and make him suffer for it!" Penelope just looked down, staying quiet.

Timothy, on the other hand, said, "Monica, that's pretty cold-hearted." "A woman who isn't ruthless can't hold her ground!" Monica shot back.

That was just how Monica rolled.

She loved fiercely and hated just as hard! No holding back! "You know, Monica," Timothy gave her a once-over, "whoever marries you is really..." Monica glared at him, "Really what?" "Really blessed from a past life!" Timothy quickly backpedaled, not wanting to piss her off.

Every tmarriage cup, Monica got super touchy and always picked a fight with him! Maybe she was really scared she wouldn't get married? Timothy thought, if it cdown to it, he could probably deal with it. After all, he couldn't see himself with anyone else.

Even though they bickered all the time, at least he didn't hate her. Spending life with her didn't seem so bad! "Hmph," Monica flipped her hair, "What man is even worthy of me? Forget it, I'll stay single. No man deserves me." Timothy suddenly smirked.

That smirk sent chills down Monica's spine. She had a bad feeling. "What are you smiling about?" Timothy's grin widened, "If you're going to give sguy the tof his life, I'm not sure, but Monica, why not let that guy befor a month?" Usually quick with a comeback, Monica was speechless.

Even Penelope noticed something was up.

Penelope asked, "What do you mean?" Timothy, clearly in a good mood, explained, "It's cto this, so I might as well spill.

Save Monica from denying it and refusing to admit she lost." "Lost?" Penelope echoed.

"Yeah," Timothy said, "Monica and I made a bet about you and Kelvin." Penelope remembered.

Once in the office, she had overheard something about a "bet," but no matter how much she asked, Timothy and Monica wouldn't admit it.

Now they were finally gonna spill! "Okay..." Penelope said, "What did you bet on? What was the wager?" Timothy replied, "We bet on whether Kelvin still has feelings for you, whether he still loves you, and if his kindness to Madison is for shidden reason. Monica bet no, I bet yes. As for the wager..." He nodded towards Monica, "Monica, you tell her." Monica gritted her teeth, "If he won, I'd be his girlfriend for a month! If I won, he'd servefor a month!" "I haven't lost yet! Who said I lost!" Monica clung to her last bit of hope, "Penelope, does Kelvin have shidden reason? Did we all misunderstand him?" If you're loving the book, nel5sis where the adventure continues. Join us for the complete experience-all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you! Timothy looked totally chill, like he had nothing to worry about.

Seeing him so relaxed made Monica even more nervous.

She had this gut feeling she was about to lose.

But she wasn't about to admit defeat until the very end! "Go on," Timothy said, all excited, "Penelope, make Monica lose fair and square!" Penelope glanced at Monica with a look of pity.

Before she even said anything, Monica was already feeling shaky.

Just pure guilt! "Penelope," Monica swallowed hard, "Did we really get Kelvin all wrong?" Penelope nodded, "Yeah, we totally misunderstood him." Monica almost lost her balance, nearly fainting.

She grabbed onto the table for support, "Wait, explain it clearly. How did we misunderstand him? Where did we go wrong? Who forced him to care for Madison, to share a bed with her? Weren't those his choices? He seemed to enjoy it! How could it be a misunderstanding? Penelope, don't get fooled by Kelvin! Don't believe him so easily!"

Penelope sighed, "Monica, as your friend, I wanted you to win against Timothy. And honestly, hoped Kelvin had moved on so we could part ways peacefully. But the truth is..." They had indeed misunderstood Kelvin. Only Timothy, his ride-or-die buddy, saw what he was really going through! "What exactly is going on?" Monica grabbed Penelope's shoulders and shook her, "Even if I lose, I want to know the whole story! What's Kelvin up to?" Penelope looked Monica in the eyes, "From the start, it was all a setup..." Penelope laid it all out for Monica.

She explained everything-Lucy's witchcraft, Madison hypnotizing Kelvin, Isabella's behindthe-scenes ve manipulation, and more. She didn't leave out a single detail. After hearing it all, Monica was stunned for what felt like forever.

"Kelvin was playing such a big game," Monica murmured. "He kept it from everyone, step by step. Even if everyone stood and hated him he could endure it!" Timothy, lounging lazily, said, "Who said everyone misunderstood him? I was always on his side. I even told you to give Kelvin stime; he wouldn't let you down. But you didn't believe me. What could I do?" Timothy shrugged and spread his hands, looking all smug and self-satisfied, which made Monica furious! She really wanted to bite him! What was there to be so smug about? Was winning such a big deal? Well, yeah, winning was a big deal! No matter how angry, unconvinced, or sharp-tongued Monica was, she was speechless at this moment. What could she do? A bet was a bet! She didn't say anything, but Timothy had plenty to say.

"Monica, how about it?" Timothy said, all smug and self-satisfied, "Now that Penelope has told you herself, you should be convinced and accept reality, right?" "I..." Monica wanted to be tough, but her words cout weak.

"I'm not deaf or dumb," she muttered softly. "I heard it all."
