Chapter 455 Lola, You've Made Your Own Bed!
However, sometimes, the stronger the taste was, the more it could arouse everyone's curiosity.
Many people at the scene were particularly eager to stir things up, rubbing their hands together and wanting to rush into the restroom to investigate.
Several spoiled young men particularly wanted to kick open the door of the women's restroom, but Zackary and Kemp, standing on either side like two door gods, guarded outside the restroom. They didn't have the courage to step forward and kick the door.
They could only prick up their ears, listening excitedly to the sounds coming from the bathroom for no apparent reason.
"Ink..."
Pennie turned the wheelchair, her face lifted up, looking at Kemp with immense sadness. "Penelope... she actually... how could she really do such a disgraceful thing!"
"Penelope was my best friend, the thought of her being despised by the whole world made me so, so sad..."
Kemp gave Pennie an inscrutable look, his Adam's apple moved uncontrollably. Seeing this hypocritical face, he felt somewhat nauseous.
Pennie's sweet little face, once it started to show sadness, really looked too pitiful and heartbreaking. Many people began to feel indignant for her and despised Penelope even more.
"It was the first time I had ever seen such a shameless wretch! She embarrassed herself at her best friend's wedding so much that the whole world knew about it. Did she really think she was a chicken or what?"
"Did you guys see the preview of the dating show that Penelope and Mr. Murray participated in? She was constantly throwing herself at Mr. Murray, it was really disgusting!"
"Pah! Such a disgusting wretch, even beggars would find her filthy, yet she dares to flirt with Mr. Murray. It's simply a case of a toad lusting after swan meat!"
***
"Who did you say was the toad wanting to eat swan meat?" The rich heiresses, who prided themselves as the socialites of Sea City, were in the midst of their lively conversation when a rich yet indifferent voice suddenly sounded behind them.
Everett.
Wherever Everett passed, the onlookers unanimously made way for him.
He crossed the crowd with an air of superiority, moving behind those socialites. As they turned around, they saw him.
In the past, few people had seen the true face of the renowned Mr. Murray, but since he participated in that variety show, his exposure greatly increased. Almost no one on the scene would fail to recognize that noble and flawless face.
"Mr... Mr. Murray..."
The socialite standing at the front was originally a fan of Everett's good looks. Now, seeing him in person, who was even more handsome than what they had seen on TV, her little heart was trembling with excitement.
She stared blankly at Everett for a long time before she belatedly realized that he had asked them a question earlier.
The male idol she had long admired descended to talk to her, and naturally, she held nothing back.
"Of course we were saying Penelope was a toad! Mr. Murray, you had no idea how shameless she was. She not only threw herself at you on the show, but also flirted with men everywhere! It was someone else's wedding, and she couldn't even hold herself back, she found three men in the ladies' restroom..."
"Mr. Murray, listen to that voice inside, it's really disgusting! Mr. Murray, in the future, you must stay away from such shameless women. If she clings to you again, it will be so annoying!"
That self-proclaimed beautiful socialite actually wanted to maintain her composure, but thinking that she might not have the chance to get so close to Everett in the future, she decided to take the initiative for once.
"Mr. Murray, actually, actually I..."
"I know, you're actually more shameless, more disgusting, more annoying!" Everett said expressionlessly. He disdained to deal with such underhanded scheming, but when it came to Penelope, he couldn't bear it!
"Mr. Murray, what did you say?!" The socialite stared in disbelief, her eyes, delicately lined with eyeliner, instantly filled with tears. "Mr. Murray, how... how could you say that about me?!"
"What, is it wrong for me to tell the truth?!" Everett still maintained his usual calm demeanor, but his words were chilling enough to make people shiver.
The socialite held herself in high regard, she had never been so humiliated! She believed that Everett must have misunderstood her. She was eager to belittle Penelope again, hoping to regain some dignity. However, before she could utter a word, her close friends had pushed her several times in succession.
At that moment, she noticed that Everett hadn't come alone, there was another person with him.
To be precise, he was gripping the woman's hand tightly.
Penelope.
The socialite was so shocked that her eyes nearly popped out. She looked at Penelope next to Everett, then at the closed bathroom door, and began to speak incoherently, "Penelope... she... she's not in the bathroom, with..."
She was halfway through her speech when she suddenly felt exceptionally stupid.
If Penelope was really in the bathroom, then who was standing next to Mr. Murray? A ghost?
The combination of Everett and Penelope, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, was truly eye-catching. It was hard for the onlookers not to notice them.
Everyone exchanged glances, then, they all stared at Penelope as if they had seen a ghost.
"Is this really Penelope? Wasn't Penelope in the ladies' room with three men... How could she be with Mr. Murray?"
"Yeah, she can't clone herself, that's not scientific!"
"Clone my ass! Penelope was with Mr. Murray, she definitely wasn't in the ladies' restroom! We've all been misled!"
"It seemed that way, she stood here, presumably unable to split herself in half to lure men in the women's restroom."
"Why did I feel like someone was deliberately framing Penelope?"
***
After Cornelia and Isabella came up, they also saw Penelope. They simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Penelope was smart enough, otherwise, she could have been schemed against and unable to recover.
Subsequently, Lola and Mylah, who rushed over, hurriedly squeezed to the front.
Lola rushed to Zackary's side, putting on a look of deep sorrow and urgency, "Zackary, open the door quickly! My sister is still inside! Even if she has lost her mind over a man and done something foolish, we are already here, we can't let others take advantage of her anymore!"
The sincerity in Lola's words was undeniable. If Penelope hadn't shown up, everyone would have believed that her affection for her sister Penelope was truly deep and profound.
But now that Penelope had appeared, hearing Lola say this, it inexplicably felt a bit like plastic sisters.
They kept saying that Penelope was crazy about men, making her out to be cheap and shameless. But all she did was hold hands with Mr. Murray, and it seemed like it was Mr. Murray who was holding her hand all the time. How could they say she was crazy about men?
The surroundings were eerily silent.
Lola saw Zackary staring at her with a complex look in his eyes, the surrounding was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. She suddenly realized that something seemed to have gone wrong.
She turned around subconsciously, only to see Penelope staring at her with a beaming smile.
"Lola, you tried every possible way to ruin me, but now you've found out that I didn't fall into your trap at all. Are you very disappointed?"
