Penny walked into the art building where the art exhibition was held. Her attire made her look bright and fresh as she mingled among a group of businesspeople. She was especially eye-catching.She looked around and immediately spotted her target in the crowd—Wilson Jenners, the CEO of Zatan Tech.“Mr. Jenners, I’m so sorry. Am I late?”She walked over gracefully and shook hands with Wilson.Several school leaders were also gathered around Wilson. This year, he was said to sponsor all electronic equipment for the microcomputer course at Imperial University and donate 100,000 air conditioners.Wilson was wearing a suit, but he did not show the shrewdness of a businessman. Instead, he displayed a sense of openness and magnanimity that was unique to his age. He had no extra accessories on his wrist, but his toned body made him look more spirited than most people.“Ms. Penny, you finally made it. I thought you had forgotten.”Penny had previously designed a house for him, and they ha
Penny squinted her eyes. She had forgotten about the video.Daisy thought she finally had Penny in her grasp when she saw her remain silent. “Mr. Tate often asks about you.”Daisy wiped the water off her cheek and sneered, “You’re just a small-time designer now. If Mr. Tate finds out about your whereabouts, will he come knocking on your door? After all, he regretted not having you back then, and he’s been thinking about you for a long time.”As soon as she said this, Penny merely said, “Isn’t it just a video anyway?”Before Daisy could respond, Penny pushed her into a cubicle.Daisy, who was 35, was not as physically fit as Penny. She fell heavily to the ground.“Penny Sullivan! What are you trying to do?!”Penny did not answer her but opened the toilet lid. Holding onto Daisy’s head with one hand, she then shoved her head inside.She did not forget to take out her phone to record the scene.The school’s toilets were not always clean and disinfected, and Daisy could smell th
Penny accompanied Wilson for another walk, and he was even more satisfied with her explanations.There was another reason why he asked Penny here today, and that was he thought of being a matchmaker for her.“Do you know Mr. Tate from Three-S Corporation? His son is also in the design industry. I heard he’s somewhat famous and around your age. How about I introduce you two to each other? You’ll be in the same circle in the future, so you'll surely have common topics to talk about. What do you think?”Penny was just about to refuse when she heard Wilson adding, “Speak of the devil. Jer, did you come to see the art exhibition today too?”She followed his gaze and saw Jeremy a few steps away.His expression had already returned to normal at this moment, and he walked over with a smile. “Uncle Wilson, if you had told me earlier that you were coming, I would’ve definitely come to be your tour guide.”Jeremy looked at Penny standing next to Wilson, his eyes gleaming.“Is Penny the des
Selina had a smug look on her face and looked down on Penny with contempt.However, Penny only found it funny.“A student of this school is slandering me, and as a leader, you can't be bothered to investigate the truth of the matter and are itching to kick me out? Is this how the school handles things, Ms. Shaw? There are many investors here today. Can you take responsibility for this?”Daisy’s face froze.Indeed, there were many investors among the art exhibition’s visitors. If this matter became big, it would not be good for the school’s image.Selina, on the other hand, relentlessly raised her neck. “Investors are well aware of what’s right and wrong. They should know that this is not the school’s fault. The school should uphold justice and set an example for students. You stole my bracelet, so punishing you will only uphold the school’s principles even more. Don’t use investors to pressure us. Ms. Shaw, I think we can kick her out now.”Selina was not afraid at all. After all
The principal’s face froze. When he turned and looked, sure enough, Caleb was a few feet away from him. At this moment, the expression on his face was faint and revealed nothing.As soon as Caleb arrived, he immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the room.Jade was standing beside him, and she winked over at Penny.No one knew how anxious she was when she saw Penny being harassed. Fortunately, her cousin also came today. Otherwise, she really would not have known how to end this dispute.Selina was a member of the Sanders family and a prominent figure in the school. With Penny being just a small-time designer, she was definitely no match for her opponent. Jade had to call for reinforcements.The atmosphere was a bit awkward at the moment, and the principal did not know how to explain it for a while, but Penny continued to ask.“Since everyone has to register, then everyone who’s present at the exhibition right now should be treated equally, right? It can’t be a rule s
Daisy’s fingertips were trembling nervously. Earlier, Selina had taken her disheveled self out of the bathroom and sent her to the staff room so that she could change her clothes.Selina had a crush on Jeremy, so while Daisy was changing, she talked about seeing Jeremy as well as Wilson from Zatan Tech. Of course, she also brought up the matter of getting bumped into.Daisy's hatred for Penny went down to her bones, so when she saw that Selina was wearing a bracelet on her wrist, she decided to take advantage of the situation.After Daisy hid the bracelet, Selina noticed that it was missing, and the former played along. “Could someone have taken it when you were bumped into earlier?”After being reminded, Selina naturally thought of Penny and went to confront her.At this moment, Selina did not think she was doing anything wrong and just hated Penny even more. If Penny was not the one who stole it, would it not be embarrassing for her?Her crush was here, and it would not be a pl
Selina’s so-called acknowledgment of her mistake was simply a way to give herself a way out.After speaking, she gave Penny a fierce glare. “Since that’s the case, forget it. I don’t want to argue further about the things she said about the Sanders.”As soon as she said this, Penny burst into laughter.Selina was instantly annoyed, and her hands that were by her sides clenched together. Why was this bitch laughing?Penny stood up and looked at her. “Ms. Sanders, you were the one who slandered me in front of so many people. Now that the truth is out, it’s fine if you don’t want to apologize to me. But from the way you're phrasing things, it seems like you’re trying to make yourself sound generous by not holding me accountable. Even if you’re from the Sanders family, not all the benefits in the world belong to you, right?”Selina was so angry that she could not even speak.She even felt like the air she was breathing was scorching hot. She looked at Daisy, hoping that Daisy could s
‘What a pity. I thought that I met someone who knows how to appreciate art, but I didn't expect that she…’She sighed in her heart as a look of disappointment flashed in her eyes.As she quietly watched Caleb, she wondered what he thought about his interior designer being a mistress.Caleb seemed untroubled, and he even took a sip of the tea that the waiter had served him some time ago as if all the drama had nothing to do with him.There were faint discussions among the crowd."She’s pretty, but it turns out that she's someone’s mistress. No wonder she seems so assertive.""Whose family did she destroy? Has she been a mistress since she was a student here?""She must be used to being a mistress. What a pity, considering her looks.""Don't you think she's shameless? She's still so calm after being exposed."Everyone looked at Penny, who stood quietly with a slight frown on her face."Ms. Shaw and Ms. Sanders, don't you know that you have to be responsible for what you say?"
