Chapter 511 Confirming Katherine's Guilt
"Dear passengers, this flight is about to arrive at Vista Heights. Please prepare yourselves."
At this moment, the announcement sounded.
Anna thought for a moment and quickly comforted,
"I'm sorry, my bad this time. I'll definitely tell you next time something like this happens. You've been so busy lately. Get some good rest. When I see Penny, I'll send you a video. Love you!"
When Anna typed the last words, she almost mustered all her courage and managed to send them out.
After speaking, she quickly hung up the phone.
Giorgio paused for a moment, then realized what Anna had said.
Suddenly, it felt like a jar of honey had been poured into his heart, dissolving all his irritation, frustration, and jealousy.
Lying on the bed, he couldn't help but think, being petty wasn't his style, so why was he so angry before?
After hanging up, Anna's face was flushed.
It was the first time in her life she had said she loved him to a man, so straightforward and proactive.
She felt a pang of embarrassment deep down.
All the way, Anna's mind was in a whirl, chaotic until she saw Penny lying in the ICU.
Penny's once chubby little face had thinned a bit, and her fair skin had become even more translucent from lack of sunlight.
It was an unhealthy pallor, not at all attractive, only making Anna heart-wrenching.
"Penny, Mommy's here to see you." Anna gently brushed the hair from Penny's forehead.
Taking a deep breath, she tried to smile bravely, "Mommy missed Penny so much, and Penny must have missed Mommy too, right? By the way, Mr. Vittorio misses you too. Don't you like him? Mommy will let Mr. Vittorio video call you."
With that, she dialed a video call, and it was quickly connected.
On the screen, Giorgio's originally gentle face darkened instantly upon seeing Penny's pale appearance, as if a sharp knife had slashed across his heart.
"Penny's condition hasn't improved?" he gently asked.
"Well, at least it hasn't worsened. I believe she'll get better," Anna said, as well as comforting herself.
Not wanting negative emotions to affect Penny, she said, "Our Penny is very strong and will definitely wake up to be with Mommy! Mr. Vittorio, you have to believe in us too and prepare a gift for us."
Giorgio looked at the two on the screen.
Anna forced a smile, seemingly strong but ready to collapse at any moment.
Penny was quiet and well-behaved, like a sleeping doll.
They were both unsetting his emotions.
Giorgio pursed his thin lips and said softly, "Of course, when Penny wakes up, I will take Penny and Charlie to Disneyland, where all the girls love Snow White, and Penny can take a picture with her. Also, didn't Penny want me to be your daddy? When Penny wakes up, I will agree."
His magnetic and soothing voice made a promise to Penny, which was a gentleness he hadn't even shown to Charlie.
And the last part about being a daddy was even more unsettling.
Hearing that, Anna's heart skipped a beat.
Was this a disguised proposal?
No, maybe he was just comforting Penny.
Anna suppressed her racing thoughts, not daring to look into Giorgio's eyes, and instead held Penny's small hand, saying, "Our Penny heard that, right? Thank you, Mr. Vittorio. It's too late now, Mr. Vittorio, hit the sack. Bye!"
With that, she hung up the video call.
Anna looked at the serene Penny, leaned down, and planted a kiss on her forehead, then walked out of the ICU.
The next second, a text message sounded.
It was from Giorgio: [I've arranged for two professors to come for joint treatment. Don't worry too much.]
[Also, sorry for not being there with you.]
In just two minutes, he had arranged for professors?
Anna had to admit that he was very mature and efficient in handling matters.
Feeling a warmth in her heart, Anna replied: [Thank you. Given the current situation, I can manage on my own. Hit the sack early. Mr. Dalio arranged a room for me next to Penny's. I'm going to sleep now.]
Giorgio: [Alright, good night.]
Anna: [Good night.]
After sending the message, Anna lay in bed but couldn't sleep. She opened Instagram and browsed the trending topics from the past two days.
As expected, the divorce news was still fermenting and remained a hot topic.
As for Katherine, who hadn't shown up to explain for a long time, was causing widespread suspicion.
#Is Katherine hiding because she cheated and is too ashamed to show her face?#
#Rumor has it that Katherine has been kicked out of the villa, and the relationship is completely broken!#
#The Stefanelli family’s silence confirms their daughter's guilt?#
Every trending topic was extremely damaging to Katherine's image.
But to Anna, it was far from enough.
Elodie was already dead, and Penny couldn't even speak, while Katherine remained unrepentant, heartless, and free.
Since the law couldn't bring her to justice, her reputation had to be utterly destroyed!
Thinking this, Anna clenched her palm and directly reposted the previous video with Giuseppe, adding the caption: [Katherine, shouldn't you give everyone an explanation?]
Sure enough, this repost instantly caused a huge uproar online.
[Oh my God! What does Anna mean by this!]
[Asking Katherine to explain? Does that mean the person in the video isn't her, but Katherine?]
[Look at the clothes in the video! I said it was Katherine, and you all scolded me?]
[If it's true, that's terrifying.]
[It's said that the allure of the unknown can often lead people astray in relationships. (for you women)]
[Well said, women always scold men? Now come out and explain!]
Even in the middle of the night, the heat kept rising. And the trending topic shot up to number one.

That night, Instagram crashed again, another stormy night.
The next morning, in a small apartment in Crownhaven.
Katherine opened her eyes, looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, completely bewildered.
She uttered, "Where is this? Who brought me here?"
"Katherine." Rebecca quickly ran in and sat by the bed, explaining, "Katherine, you fainted outside Mr. Vittorio's villa before, and I came to pick you up. But because of the current turmoil, it was easy to run into reporters, so I couldn't take you to the hospital and had to bring you here."
Katherine recalled what happened before she fainted, her eyes gradually filled with realization and anger!
She fainted outside the villa, and no one cared.
How heartless could they be!
"Katherine, last night Anna reposted on Instagram, and now it's a huge mess online. I think you should take a look." With that, Rebecca handed over a tablet.
Then, Katherine saw the trending topics, all about her!
#Confirmed Katherine Cheating Scandal#
#Katherine and Giuseppe Trending#
#Brands Considering Dropping Katherine as Spokesperson#
#Joint Boycott of Katherine Trending#
Damn Anna!
Katherine threw the tablet aside, her eyes bloodshot, shouting, "How dare she kick me and ruin my reputation when I'm down! Fine! Do they think I'll just go down like this? Absolutely no! I'm going to expose her and Giorgio's affair, make them the target of public scorn and condemnation!"

(I highly recommend a captivating book that I couldn't put down for three days and nights. It's incredibly engaging and a must-read. The title of the book is "Rebirth: Mommy's Revenge" You can find it by searching for it in the search bar.)
