Chapter 155 Mr. Spencer Stood Up for Penelope
After saying these words, Everett was directly stunned, and so was his senior assistant, Mr. Dawson.
Dawson looked at his boss as if he was looking at an alien. Why did he feel that his noble, cold, and indifferent boss, at this moment, seemed exactly like a lonely, empty, cold tyrant who wanted to forcefully snatch a good girl?
Dawson was completely petrified by the thoughts in his own mind.
"Uh..." Penelope was taken aback, she really didn't expect that Mr. Murray would be so honest. She thanked him, but it was more of a courtesy than anything else.
However, since he had asked, it was impossible for Penelope to say that her desire to thank him was insincere.
She pondered for a moment, then spoke softly, "Of course it's true."
"If you really wanted to thank me, you would have invited me to dinner. Tomorrow night..."
Everett suddenly remembered that his grandfather was going to force him to go on a blind date the next evening. He paused before continuing, "The evening after next, please treat me to dinner and we can sign the contract then."
"Alright." Penelope said readily. He had done her such a big favor, it was only right to treat him to a meal.
She also secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Fortunately, he was not talking about tomorrow night. Tomorrow night, she was being forced by Xavier to go on a blind date with his grandson.
Although Penelope still had a year, she really hadn't thought about starting a new relationship when she came back this time.
With a body like hers, dating was nothing more than a curse to others. Yet, Xavier was a doctor, and in his eyes, even the sick deserved the best life.
Therefore, he had never looked down on her. On the contrary, he often kindly helped her by introducing potential partners, encouraging her to embrace a new relationship. This time, he even arranged for her to meet his great-grandson.
Penelope was really not interested in blind dates. However, due to the overwhelming kindness, she agreed to have dinner with his grandson tomorrow night, just to make her stance clear.
After arranging a time to eat and sign a contract with Everett, Penelope took the lead and walked towards the outside of the hall.
It was Ethan's first day at kindergarten, she had to go pick him up early.
Until Penelope's figure disappeared outside the door, Mr. Dawson, the senior assistant, still hadn't recovered from the intense shock.
He gently probed his ear, feeling that his hearing might have been a bit impaired.
Just now, his ears had actually experienced an illusion. He heard the woman he disliked the most in his family, the eldest, shamelessly asking a woman to invite him to dinner!
"Boss, your time is precious. Should we just let Bryson handle the matter of Ms. Sullivan's contract signing?"
Everett glanced at Dawson with disdain, he couldn't understand how his own senior assistant could make such a basic mistake as not even hearing his words.
She asked me to clear my schedule for the evening the day after tomorrow, as she invited me to dinner and to sign a contract.
Dawson's mouth was agape, wide enough to fit a ball in, it wasn't his hallucination just now! His precious and unparalleled boss was really eagerly planning to have dinner with a woman?!
This was the most terrifying female creature!
Dawson silently wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. However, this was also good, he didn't have to worry every day that the boss would like men, and if he couldn't control himself, he would be domineeringly pampered!
In the hall, everyone was lost in their own thoughts, and no one noticed that Zackary, sitting in the front row, had quietly crushed the cup in his hand.
Lola was in a hurry to catch the announcement, she left a bit earlier than Zackary.
Madelyn was the last female star to leave. As soon as she stepped out of the hall, she saw Zackary standing outside.
"What's the name?" Zackary looked at Madelyn expressionlessly, speaking coldly.
Madelyn was suddenly overjoyed in her heart. She really didn't expect that after being so embarrassed today, she would still catch the eye of the famous Mr. Spencer.
You should know, Mr. Spencer was hailed as a once-in-a-millennium beauty! His family background was in no way inferior to Everett's!
The reason she was more inclined to please Everett was because Mr. Spencer already had his beloved Lola by his side, her chances of successfully pleasing him were too low.
Who would have thought, today was like a pie falling from the sky. Even though he already had Lola, he was still attracted by the beauty of Madelyn.
Mr. Spencer was so impressive that even if she could only be his mistress, not his official girlfriend, her rise to success was still just around the corner!
Madelyn lowered her eyelids halfway, looking shy and coy, "Mr. Spencer, my name is Madelyn. From now on, you can just call me Madelyn."
"Madelyn..." Zackary's face held an inscrutable, profound expression, "Hmm, I've remembered."
Madelyn was overjoyed, she decided to use the fake fall that she hadn't been able to perform in front of Everett, on Zackary.
She twisted her waist as weak as a willow in the wind, and her body uncontrollably fell into Zackary's arms.
She had a beautiful thought, their skins touched, it was like thunder and lightning, a good dream for one night.
However, she didn't manage to fall into Zackary's arms. He coldly took a step forward, and her body heavily fell to the ground.
Face down on the ground.
"Get out!" Before Madelyn could even soothe the intense pain on her face, Zackary's emotionless voice had already reached her ears.
With teary eyes, she looked at him, unable to believe what was happening. Mr. Spencer had clearly shown interest in her, even asked for her name, yet he could still be so cruel to her.
"Mr. Spencer......"
Zackary didn't pay any attention to Madelyn's intentions at all. He took out his phone and dialed Samuel's number.
"Boss, what's the matter?"
"Banned a person."
Just as Zackary was about to speak, he suddenly remembered the words Madelyn had used to disparage Penelope in the hall earlier.
She said something to prevent Penelope from flitting about like a fly, annoying people.
These words, they truly made him feel uncomfortable inside.
"Boss, who are we banning?" Samuel on the other end of the phone asked, his voice trembling with fear.
"Madelyn." Zackary looked disgustedly at Madelyn, who was awkwardly rubbing on the ground. He, who was always sparing with words, unusually said a few more sentences, "Ban her! So she won't fly around like a fly, annoying people!"
After hearing Zackary's words, Madelyn's originally pale face turned directly into the color of a pig's liver.
Wasn't this sentence said by Penelope?
How could Mr. Spencer have returned her words to her intact?
Could it be, he was standing up for Penelope?!
Madelyn didn't want to be ostracized by Zackary. She scrambled to her feet in a panic, intending to plead with him. However, in the corridor, there was no sign of him!
Ethan was in such poor health and had a limp, Penelope was particularly worried that he would not be able to adapt to kindergarten life.
At that time, the traffic was particularly bad, and the bus was stopping and starting. By the time she rushed to the entrance of Ethan's kindergarten, school had long since ended.
After getting off the car, she was walking and rummaging through her handbag for the baby card to swipe for Ethan. Suddenly, she felt a pain in her wrist, and her body was abruptly pulled into a black car parked nearby.
The next second, a muscular body heavily pressed down on her.
