Chapter 60 Penelope wished Mr. Spencer a happy engagement.
Zackary and Lola, they were about to get engaged...
Although Zackary had completely disappointed her and she had planned to completely let go of the unrealistic love in her heart, the moment she saw this engagement invitation, Penelope still couldn't help but feel a bit choked up.
However, this was much better than before.
If it had been in the past, Lola telling her that she was engaged to Zackary would have devastated her to the point of collapse, she wouldn't even have the strength to handle this invitation.
But then, she could still manage to put on an air of nonchalance, accepting the invitation handed over by Lola, even managing to curve her lips into a polite smile.
"Engaged!"
Penelope asked with a laugh, "Does the engagement also have to go with the amount of betrothal money?"
"It seems so." Lola hadn't expected Penelope to bring up the matter of the share money so bluntly. Even she, who was always adept at handling situations, could only respond somewhat stiffly.
From beginning to end, Zackary's gaze was firmly locked on Penelope's small face.
Originally, his gaze was just a calm ripple. Seeing Penelope calmly accepting the invitation, with a relaxed and cheerful demeanor, his eyes instantly turned into a bone-chilling cold.
This woman, she was actually hoping for him to get engaged to Lola?!
Suddenly, he really wanted to wring the neck of this infuriating woman!
"Bring the gift money!"
Penelope was still laughing, her eyes curved in amusement. Even with the obvious scar on her forehead, she was still breathtakingly beautiful.
"Sending money to jerks and bitches, it would be better to use this money to feed dogs!"
Saying this, Penelope slowly tore up the invitation in her hand and fiercely threw it in the faces of Lola and Zackary.
Lola's face was hit squarely, she was somewhat annoyed, but with so many people around, she had to maintain her image. She could only put on a look of innocent grievance and said, "Sister, I sincerely invited you, how could you treat me like this?"
"What have I done to you?" Penelope's smile remained flawlessly perfect on her face, "Lola, I've blessed you!"
Penelope's gaze slowly fell on Zackary's face, "Mr. Spencer, I wish you and Lola, a match made in heaven, to last forever!"
Having said that, Penelope turned around gracefully and left without looking back.
Penelope Sullivan was not allowed entry.
Zack, you trampled my dignity under your feet, you said I, Penelope, was less than a dog. Back then, I loved you, so I endured it.
But now, I don't love you anymore, Zackary. In my eyes, Penelope, you are nothing more than a blind, stupid dog!
"Penelope!"
Zackary's threatening voice echoed from behind, but Penelope didn't turn around.
Once, he always used Ethan to threaten her, and she compromised time and time again. But now, her weakness, he had personally removed. Who was afraid of whom now!
"Zackary, don't be angry anymore, it was all my fault."
Lola feared that Zackary would abandon her in public, recklessly rushing after Penelope. She quickly grabbed his hand tightly, pitifully saying, "Zackary, it's all my fault, I accidentally upset your sister, you can scold me!"
Upon hearing Lola's words, Zackary suddenly snapped back to reality. He slowly shifted his gaze away from Penelope's retreating figure, "Lola, it's not your fault."
"Zackary, I'm sorry, I just wanted to get my sister's blessing. I didn't expect her reaction to be so strong after seeing our engagement invitation. Zackary, believe me, I really didn't mean anything else, I didn't mean to upset my sister."
"Lola, I trust you," Zackary responded absentmindedly.
After hearing Zackary's words, Lola gently nestled against his shoulder, "Zackary, you are so good to me."
The actions of Zackary, Lola, and Penelope attracted quite a bit of attention, but because no one dared to approach and listen closely, no one knew exactly what happened between them.
It was just Penelope, this insignificant figure, who didn't know how to appreciate favors, and had offended Mr. Spencer and Ms. Hilliard.
Actually, this world can sometimes be quite ridiculous. Penelope used to be Zackary's legitimate wife, but people in this world only knew about the perfect match between Mr. Spencer and Ms. Hilliard, not realizing that Lola was just a shameless homewrecker.
Penelope had taken another round in the hall, but still couldn't find Kemp. She was starting to feel a bit dejected, thinking that he probably wouldn't come tonight.
Seeing the rather friendly waiter who had just inquired about Kemp walking towards her, Penelope quickly went up to him, "Hello, has Mr. Hunter arrived?"
"Oh, Mr. Hunter just came by, he didn't come to this side of the hall, he went to the lounge upstairs."
The waiter pointed to the nearby staircase, "You go up these stairs, Mr. Hunter is in the lounge at the farthest east and north."
"Thank you!"
Penelope had originally planned to go upstairs to look for Kemp in the lounge, but her stomachache was so severe that she reconsidered. She decided to take a few painkillers first before going to find Kemp.
Actually, taking this kind of painkiller on an empty stomach was quite harmful to the body. In the past, Penelope didn't care much, but now, she wanted to avenge Ethan, she wanted to live a few more days, she had to take good care of her body.
So, she first took some food, then fetched the boiled water, and swallowed the painkiller.
Lola's gaze was firmly fixed on Penelope, watching her converse with the waiter. As soon as she parted ways with Zackary, she hurriedly headed in the direction of the waiter.
"Hello."
Ms. Hilliard actually took the initiative to greet her, the waitress was immediately flattered, "Ms. Hilliard, hello! I'm your fan, could you give me an autograph later?"
"Of course!" Lola said, her face radiant with a warm and gentle smile. "By the way, did my sister need something from you earlier?"
"Oh, the one with the wound on her forehead, the very beautiful one."
The waitress just now didn't realize who Lola was referring to, it was only when she mentioned a head injury that she finally understood.
"Ms. Hilliard, are you referring to Ms. Sullivan? It seemed she had something very important to discuss with Mr. Hunter. I told her that Mr. Hunter was in the upstairs lounge, she should be heading there shortly."
Lola didn't speak, instead she turned around, quietly took out a small bottle from her bag, and then poured everything from the bottle into the red wine on the front desk.
She picked up the glass of red wine, gently swirled it, and then placed it in the waiter's hand.
"Mr. Hunter was an old friend of my sister's, they really should have a good catch-up tonight. Here's what, you help me take this glass of red wine to his room, just say, it was my sister who asked you to deliver it."
Saying so, Lola stuffed a large stack of money into the waiter's hand.
The waitress, upon seeing the thick stack of hundred-dollar bills, had her eyes light up instantly. Naturally, she wouldn't refuse Lola's request. She kept thanking Lola, carrying the drink on a tray, and quickly headed towards the upstairs private room.
Watching Penelope eating snacks in the distance, the corners of Lola's lips uncontrollably lifted.
The thing she had prepared in this bottle was originally intended for Penelope and Damian. Unexpectedly, it could also come in handy tonight.
Tonight, there was a good show to watch!
