The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame (Donald and Jennifer)

Chapter 1082 Bring Home

How could Raphael possibly ignore such a valuable resource as Donald, who was a remarkable individual, and hire someone else?

This was particularly the case after going through his most recent experience. Raphael keenly felt that hiring any other mercenaries was far less reliable than directly seeking help from Donald.

Donald's treatment of a friend had always been rather indifferent.

He was different from others; he didn't enjoy calling friends for no reason every day.

Thus, despite he and Raphael having known each other for many years, in reality, their relationship had always been one of dining and drinking buddies. They rarely troubled each other.

Staring at the contract Raphael was offering him, Donald pondered for a moment, but ultimately, he took it.

Upon seeing that Donald had accepted the contract, Raphael immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He said to Donald, “All right, from now on, you're in charge of my safety, and in turn, I'll take care of your expenses. I'll provide the funds; you provide the effort. As long as we work together, we'll surely be invincible.”

After signing his name on the contract, Donald calmly said to Raphael, “I will only have my men ensure your safety on a daily basis. I won't actively assist you in doing anything else. You must abide by the law, and you'd better not think about using my people to do some lawless things.”

Raphael made an “okay” gesture at Donald and said, “Don't worry. Do I look like someone who would go against the law? As long as my safety is guaranteed, that's enough. You don't need to worry about money matters in the future.”

Rather than calling it a business cooperation, it was more accurate to call it an alliance.

Hence, after explaining the situation to Billy, Donald returned to Pollerton overnight.

After Donald returned to the mansion, Penelope, who was sitting in the car, originally wanted to retreat into the shadows as usual.

However, Donald grabbed her hand and said, “Now that you've emerged from the shadows, you no longer need to be my shadow. Come out and get to know Jennifer and the others. From now on, this is your home.”

For Penelope, home was not actually an abstract concept.

Wherever Donald was, that was her home.

But what touched Penelope the most was Donald's initiative to invite her out of the shadows and bring her face-to-face with Jennifer.

Opening the door to the mansion, the two of them stepped into the living room.

When Donald walked in with Penelope, the three women watching television in the living room were all momentarily stunned.

“Darling, who is she?”

It was not that Jennifer was particularly jealous.

It was just that Penelope's beauty was truly extraordinary, so much so that Jennifer felt threatened.

Unlike Hannah's intellect and Geraldine's cuteness, Penelope exuded a subtle kind of beauty.

What did it mean to have a subtle kind of beauty?

Simply standing there without uttering a word, Penelope still irresistibly drew one's gaze for an extra moment or two.

“She's Billy's cousin and also my childhood playmate. We used to play together all the time. Now, she's come to seek my help in finding a job.”

As the person responsible for helping Donald tie up various loose ends, Billy had already met Jennifer. The two of them were quite familiar with each other.

Thus, upon hearing that Penelope was Billy's cousin, Jennifer immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

It was not that she believed nothing would happen between Donald and Penelope, but Jennifer knew that Billy was very loyal to Donald. Therefore, at the very least, Penelope was a trustworthy ally.

“So, you're Billy's cousin. What kind of job are you looking for? Come, sit over here.”

Jennifer's behavior utterly dumbfounded Geraldine and Hannah.

What's going on here? This woman named Penelope is clearly here to steal Donald away. Jennifer, why are you being so polite to her?
