Penelope has watched her daughter fall in and out of love over the years, but what she has with Lucifer is different. Even when Chloe claimed not to be interested in Lucifer, there was always this… lingering something. A hesitance. Sure, Penelope tried hard to get Chloe and Dan back together. Even mothers can be wrong, y’know? She just saw what growing up without John did to Chloe, and didn’t want Trixie to grow up that way.
But it seems Dan and Chloe were better off friends.
Now, six years from a disastrous family dinner, she’s going to brunch at one of Lucifer’s mansions. Now, Penelope knows there are much more important things than money but, boy, if that isn’t a major bonus! And the man can cook. But it’s not Lucifer’s skills that really make him a good match for her daughter. It’s that look in his eyes. The one saying he’d do anything for her.
The look John always gave her.
“I’m happy for you,” she tells Chloe when they’re away from other guests.
“Thanks, Mom,” Chloe says, a genuine smile on her face.
It’s been a while since Penelope has seen it.
“Remember when Lucifer set me up with Godfrey?” she says.
“I wish I didn’t,” Chloe shudders. “Uh, about that, though…”
That’s how Penelope learns about the Devil.
