Chapter 149 Penelope was a Shameless Thief!

Pennie had said so, so naturally, everyone had to help her find the bracelet.

Or rather, to clear herself of suspicion, everyone had to help her find the bracelet.

The air conditioning in the hall was turned up high, and most of the men present were wearing shirts, making it difficult to hide bracelets on their bodies.

Only Zackary, Kemp, and Everett, who were dressed in sharp suits, were present. Given their status and identity, it was even less likely that they would take Pennie's bracelet.

Therefore, the biggest suspects were the ladies in the hall, each carrying a handbag.

The ladies at the scene, in order to prove their innocence, voluntarily searched their own handbags and showed them to Pennie, to demonstrate that they were not the thieves who stole the bracelet.

The grip Penelope had on her handbag involuntarily tightened a bit.

She didn't look through her own handbag, but judging by Pennie's demeanor, she could guess that Pennie's so-called lost white jade bracelet was in her bag.

It really was a very clichéd trap plot.

But Penelope had to admit, Pennie's move was really ruthless.

She had just been appointed as the spokesperson for Throne. If a scandal of theft had been exposed on the spot, the game company naturally wouldn't use such an internet celebrity with serious moral deficiencies.

Penelope coolly lifted her eyelids, staring inscrutably at Pennie in front of her, who was continuously shedding tears.

Pennie did this, for Lola, but more so for herself.

Previously, the spokesperson for asking about love, Lola and Pennie were together.

Although Pennie only briefly showed her face, being able to represent such a prestigious brand was an honor for her.

This time, Lola must have also promised her that if she could secure the endorsement, she would fight for a place for her. Therefore, she would go to such lengths to harm her, helping Lola to snatch back this endorsement.

After all, if she hadn't appeared out of nowhere, this endorsement would have fallen into Lola's hands long ago.

"Please, everyone, could you help me find that bracelet?" Pennie's tears were falling harder and harder, "If anyone could help me find that bracelet, I would be grateful to them for the rest of my life!"

"Could everyone please help Penny look for her bracelet again! That bracelet is really important to her. Thank you all!" Lola also quickly spoke up, looking at everyone with a sincere face.

"This bracelet doesn't have legs, how could it possibly fly away!" A female celebrity who was on good terms with Pennie spoke up, "I think, it must have been stolen!"

She turned her face to look at Penelope, deliberately putting on a look of utter shock, "This internet celebrity, why don't you dare let everyone see your bag? We've all turned our bags inside out, only yours hasn't been touched. Could you please help Penny look for it too? This is a meeting gift from her fiancé's grandmother, such an important item, if you quietly stole it, it would be too unscrupulous!"

As the female star's voice fell, all eyes in the hall turned to Penelope's face.

Many people began to talk, "Yes, we all searched our bags, but she refused to do so. There must be something wrong!"

"Even the gifts from the grandmother of someone's fiancé were not spared. How could this internet celebrity be so short of money!"

"The key point is, it's just too immoral! Theft? I really didn't expect such a thing to happen around me!"

"What an immorality! It's just disgusting! Such a person with dirty tricks, it's really disgusting! And she even endorses games! With her dirty hands and feet, who dares to play the games she endorses!"

"Exactly! The game company really has some nerve, daring to use such a person as the spokesperson for Throne!"

***

Penelope's face was slightly pale, the female celebrities really harbored a lot of malice towards internet celebrities.

Their implication was clear, they had already considered her as the thief who stole Pennie's bracelet.

But why, why did they deserve it?

She, Penelope, didn't steal anything. Why on earth should she inexplicably take the blame for this mess?!

The life she had barely managed to sustain was not for being framed by others, but rather, to make those who had hurt her, those who had harmed her, pay the price!

Penelope tilted her chin slightly upward. Despite her small frame, she still appeared thinner than those female celebrities who pursued the beauty of being skinny.

But when she lifted her eyelids, the radiance swirling in her eyes could overshadow the charm of these competing female stars.

Neither humble nor arrogant, like a cold plum standing proudly in the wind and snow.

"I didn't steal anything, and I won't give up the endorsement of Throne! I didn't do anything wrong, I have a clear conscience!"

Pennie looked at Penelope with a pitiful and sorrowful expression, "Penelope, I didn't mean to accuse you of stealing. What if... what if someone accidentally bumped into my bracelet and it just happened to end up in your bag? Penelope, this bracelet is really too important to me, please, could you check if it's in your bag?"

"Penelope, rest assured, even if my bracelet was really in your bag, I wouldn't have misunderstood that you stole my bracelet!"

Penelope sneered inwardly. Pennie's words sounded nice, but if Pennie's bracelet was really found in her bag, she would be nothing more than a thief that everyone would condemn!

In this lifetime, she could never hold her head high again!

Seeing Kemp staring intently at Penelope's face, Pennie gritted her teeth secretly. She took his hand in a pleasing manner, "Kemp, don't get me wrong, I really didn't mean to say Penelope is a thief. I just hope she could help me find the bracelet too!"

"You knew the significance of that bracelet, I really cared about that bracelet so much!"

"Sister, why don't you just take a look in your bag, see? Penny is so anxious!" Lola looked worried, but the malice in her eyes couldn't be hidden no matter what.

As soon as Lola finished speaking, the murmurs in the room almost pierced Penelope's eardrums again.

"Yeah, it was really too much! They stole someone's stuff and didn't admit it, do they have no shame?"

"I said, this shameless thief, not only should the entertainment industry ban her, but the internet should also ban her! The nation's first love? Teaching everyone to steal together?!"

"Today, I actually auditioned with a shameless thief! It was simply a great humiliation!"

"Pah! How disgusting! Why doesn't this kind of person just die!"

The female star sitting next to Penelope, known for her authenticity, seemed to be truly disgusted by Penelope's disgusting behavior of covering up and denying her guilt. She suddenly reached out, grabbed the bag from Penelope's hand, and quickly walked onto the stage with the bag.

She slowly emptied the contents of Penelope's bag, placing everything on the ground of the front stage.

Inside, there was a cell phone, toilet paper, wet wipes, keys, and one more item, which was tightly wrapped in several pieces of toilet paper.

That female star quickly tore open those few pieces of tissue paper, and lo and behold, inside was a white jade bracelet!

But the most eye-catching thing in her bag was not this white jade bracelet, but a stack of folded paper!
