Pampered by My Ex-husband (Penny and Orlando) novel Chapter 22

Chapter 22 What Does Your Husband Do?

"My husband is just an ordinary programmer," Penny casually lied, maintaining a serious tone. "Marriage takes effort from both sides, you know? Can't let him bear all the burden alone."

She pushed the coffee to Orlando, and smiled decently, "Although he doesn't earn much, he is a devoted family man."

What Penny described was the image of an ideal spouse she conjured up in her mind.

Orlando fell far short of that image in every aspect.

"Well, Mr. Fletcher, what about you? That lady just mentioned that you're married. What kind of person is your wife?"

Penny casually asked, trying to get close to the client.

After all, this man didn't even know her name or what she looked like, so she couldn't expect much from his answer.

As expected, Orlando furrowed his brow slightly and gave an honest reply, "I don't know."

He dragged on the divorce, even sending the divorce agreement to Stuart's mansion, but that woman did not react whatsoever.

What was she waiting for?

She just wanted to cling to the Fletcher Group like a parasite.

Penny was surprised by his candid response, and at that moment, the waiter arrived with the dishes. She took the opportunity to change the subject.

"Chef Bell is an art enthusiast. It's amazing how he incorporates famous paintings into his dishes."

Three exquisite dishes were brought to the table, seemingly chaotic in color but complementing each other perfectly.

"Mr. Fletcher, please enjoy."

The vision before Penny was becoming increasingly blurry, and she just wanted to finish the task quickly and go to the hospital.

But Orlando held a coffee cup and asked casually, "How did you know I have a stomach problem?"

She hesitated for a moment. "Just a guess. I heard that you are a workaholic and probably don't eat on time."

It was Rex who complained during their phone call, mentioning how Orlando was too absorbed in work and frequently suffered from stomach problems.

Rex could only hope that Penny would remind him and take care of him.

Penny couldn't bring herself to refuse, so she always promised to do so.

However, in the past three years of marriage, the two of them had never met even once.
