Chapter 400
Pete said, “The Flanagan family has a maid who looks a lot like Penelope. One of my guys has seen her, she got into Lucian’s car.”
David asked, “Oh, seriously?”
Pete answered, “They look really alike. At Lucian and Penelope’s engagement party, Penelope was allergic to alcohol and was in the hospital, so they had this maid named Allison Zimmer stand in for her. No one at the party noticed.”
David asked, “Stand in for her at the engagement party?”
Pete explained, “Since Penelope was in the hospital for alcohol allergy, they had this maid stand in for her at the engagement party. No one noticed.”
David asked, “They really look that alike?”
Pete replied, “Yes, they do.”
David said, “Pete, dig up some information on this Allison for me.”
Pete answered, “Sure.”
After Pete left, David did some thinking. He needed to take some things into consideration for himself.
The Lindberg family was good to him, but not that great. Carter never really treated him as a son. Maybe he could make good use of this Penelope.
Meanwhile, news of the accident at the Lindberg family’s charity dinner spread all over Northfield. Lucian’s fiancée Penelope was crushed under a chandelier trying to save Miranda. She survived, but she miscarried. It was a pity.
Moreover, the hospital entrance had been blocked by journalists from various media outlets, all waiting for the latest news on Penelope. It was said that Penelope was still unconscious, lying in the ICU, and Lucian had been staying in the hospital too.
In the morning, Cora made a trip to the hospital. Because the entrance was blocked by journalists, she had to leave through a side door. As soon as she stepped out of the side door, a few journalists appeared in front of her, annoying like flies.
A journalist asked, “Has Ms. Flanagan woken up?”
Another journalist asked, “Was the accident with Ms. Flanagan and Mrs. Lindberg deliberate or a real accident?”
And yet another journalist asked, “Could it have been done on purpose, like by Lucian’s secret lover outside, or someone seeking revenge?”
Hearing these questions, Cora frowned. She glared at the journalist in front of her. This young journalist seemed to want to grab headlines, so she asked sharp questions.
Cora said coldly, “Miss, watch your words.”
The young journalist was intimidated by Cora’s gaze and took a step back. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Cora continued, “This is the Lindberg family’s private matter, none of your business. We are investigating this matter, and will inform the media when we have results.” But she didn’t take these small media outlets seriously. The Lindberg family had their own cooperating media.
After Cora’s car left, a few journalists started to chat.
“Do you think this could be due to a love triangle? Think about it, Penelope was already eight and a half months pregnant, about to give birth. Everyone knows that as soon as she gives birth to a Lindberg
family child, she becomes a Lindberg. She would instantly change. from a rich family’s daughter to a top-class socialite.”
“Who knows? But Penelope is really unlucky. A healthy child just gone like that, I wonder if the Lindberg family will still accept her.”
“No way, Penelope saved Miranda’s life. Even without the child, the Lindberg family wouldn’t be so heartless, would they?”
“We outsiders can never know what’s going on inside a wealthy family. There’s a big bonus waiting.”

“That wouldn’t be very nice. After all, we haven’t seen the actual situation and haven’t conducted any interviews. Wouldn’t that be spreading rumors?”
“What’s wrong with that? The buzz is what matters the most!”
