Chapter 254 Making Penelope Unable to Carry On!

Actually, if Penelope had known earlier that she was going to play this kind of role today, she would never have agreed to Weston's request. However, it was only on her way here that Weston called to tell her about the role she was going to play today.

She had already agreed before, and to go back on her word now would be too untrustworthy. Moreover, Weston had said that the role was meant for her and had pitifully begged her, making it impossible for her to refuse.

"Penelope, why aren't you speaking?! Are you too ashamed to speak?! Or are you determined to act shamelessly today?!" Ashlynn shouted at Penelope, her small face flushed with anger.

Seeing that Penelope still ignored her meaning, Ashlynn became even more irritable. She reached out, intending to grab Penelope.

Before she could even grab Penelope's arm, Everett had already mercilessly seized her wrist.

Ashlynn certainly didn't recognize that Everett was the famous Mr. Murray, but from his attire, she immediately recognized that he was playing the role of the guard who had an affair with the imperial concubine that night.

This cannon fodder role definitely wouldn't invite any big shots. This man, while his physique and demeanor seemed quite good, the fact that he would play such a role clearly showed that he was a nobody, not even worthy of being considered an eighteenth-tier actor.

Seeing a little nobody daring to meddle in her affairs, Ashlynn immediately snorted disdainfully a few times.

"Let go!" Ashlynn glared fiercely at Everett, "Who do you think you are?! Who asked you to meddle in my business!"

"I am Penelope's boyfriend," Everett said calmly, his gaze on Ashlynn devoid of any warmth, as if he was looking at a presumptuous ant.

Male friend, in short, boyfriend. What he said, there's nothing wrong.

Penelope had been so engrossed in figuring out how to avoid embarrassment during the filming that night, she hadn't heard what Everett had said.

It was Zackary and Kemp, who were being led step by step closer by their own women, who clearly heard Everett's voice.

The two equally handsome and extraordinary men, quite in sync, had faces as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Hah!" Upon hearing Everett's words, Ashlynn laughed even more disdainfully. Initially, she was surprised when Penelope suddenly became popular, thinking that there must be some big shot supporting her from behind. She didn't expect that her boyfriend was just a nobody!

Ashlynn arrogantly touched the several carat diamond ring on her ring finger, then sneered and said, "I know that people at your level are definitely poor! But I don't care how poor you are, if you dare to default today, I'll see you in court! Believe it or not, I can sue you until you end up in jail!"

In this crew, only Weston, who was battling diarrhea in the restroom, knew that the guest star playing the guard was Everett. Even Lola and Pennie didn't recognize that the man behind the mask was him.

Lola never missed a chance to tarnish Penelope's image in front of Zackary, "Zackary, I can't believe my sister has a boyfriend so quickly! I really don't understand why, when the one she loves is someone else, she would not hesitate to ruin my innocence to alienate you from me..."

It seemed as if she had remembered that terrible experience she couldn't bear to look back on. Lola's eyes instantly filled with tears, and she was so choked up that she could hardly speak. "Zackary," she managed to say, "why did my sister have to treat me like this?"

"She didn't love you, why did she still monopolize you? She hurt me, I don't blame her, but Zackary, the way she treated you, it hurts me!"

"Zackary, I feel so heartbroken..."

Zackary did recognize Everett, and seeing Penelope throw herself into his arms in the blink of an eye, he was already on the verge of exploding with anger. Hearing Lola's words, he was even more furious to the point of grinding his teeth. If it weren't for the fact that they were in a public place, he would definitely have skinned her alive and interrogated her harshly, asking if deceiving his feelings was so amusing?!

Lola was addicted to playing the saint. She stepped forward, tears in her eyes, and spoke to Penelope, "Sister, stop arguing with Ashlynn. I know you didn't do it on purpose, but you did ruin Ashlynn's bag. How about I lend you some money, and you can pay Ashlynn back?"

Lola's innocent act truly made Penelope feel so disgusted that she wanted to vomit.

She finally snapped out of her thoughts, turned her face, and looked at Lola with a cold laugh, "Lola, you instigated Ashlynn to frame me intentionally, and then you pretend to be a good person in front of me, interesting?!"

"I..." Lola looked hurt, tears in her eyes as she looked at Zackary. "Zackary, don't misunderstand, I really didn't set up my sister. So many people saw that it was my sister who deliberately hit Ashlynn. I was afraid she wouldn't compensate and would have to bear legal responsibility. I was worried about her, I didn't expect..."

Whatever Lola said, Zackary didn't catch it. His gaze was firmly locked on the intertwined hands of Everett and Penelope.

The more he looked, the more uncontrollable his anger became. Zackary was so furious that he wished he could crush his own fist.

Just then, Lola had placed her small hand into his. As he squeezed it with such force, the pain made her question her life.

Lola's face was as pale as paper, "Zackary, it hurts..."

It was only then that Zackary noticed he had been gripping Lola's hand so tightly that it had become deformed. He quickly let go of her hand and said softly, "Lola, you're just too kind! This wicked woman deserves to rot in jail, no matter what!"

I was stuck in jail for so long!

Penelope chuckled mockingly to herself, pity though, she was probably going to disappoint Zackary today, she really didn't have to go to jail for today's matter.

"Ashlynn, I'm here, I'm here! You have to tell me, who was the blind one who ruined the limited edition bag I gave you! Don't worry, I'll make sure she can't even cry today!" The young Mr. Crawford in Ashlynn's mouth, Jeremy Crawford, hurriedly ran down from the car, looking at Ashlynn with a pleasing face as he spoke.

Originally, Ashlynn was full of confidence because everyone was on her side. Now that her strong supporter had arrived, she was so proud that she was almost floating.

She grabbed onto Jeremy's arm and immediately pointed at Penelope's face with a haughty air, "It's her! She bumped into me on purpose and even ruined the limited edition bag you gave me!"

"Mr. Crawford, she really went too far! She hit me and it hurts so much! My arm, shoulder, and stomach are still aching!"

"My dear Ashlynn, it won't hurt." Jeremy gently hugged Ashlynn, intending to stand up for his newly pursued girlfriend.

He thought he was being suave as he ran his hand through his slicked-back hair, then smirked wickedly. He was just about to give Penelope a harsh lesson when he turned his face and found himself looking directly at Penelope.

This glance almost made him drool.

Ashlynn slapped him hard, and only then did he snap back to reality.

He suppressed his lust for Penelope and spoke with a cool and wild tone, "Who allowed you to bully my Ashlynn?! I tell you, today you not only have to pay, but you also have to kneel on the ground and apologize to my Ashlynn! Otherwise, I will definitely make you unable to survive in Sea City! Kneel down!"
