Chapter 95 Mr. Spencer was nothing more than an ex-boyfriend.
He clearly intended to humiliate her in front of Lyman!
He was really terrible!
Penelope's eyes were rimmed with red, Zackary always had a way to leave her emotionally and physically distressed!
If Zackary had humiliated her in front of others, it didn't matter to her, really, it didn't.
But for Lyman, her feelings were somewhat special. She didn't intentionally want to act noble in front of him to tease him, but she genuinely considered him as family. When Zackary humiliated her in front of him, it felt as if she had brought shame upon her own father and brothers.
Penelope didn't want to give Zackary the satisfaction, her instinct was to leave this place. However, before she could leave, Lyman's voice, filled with obvious joy, echoed in the air.
"Penelope, how did you get here?"
Lyman stood up and quickly walked towards her. He gently grasped her hand, "Penelope, I was just about to look for you. I didn't expect you to come to me. We really do have a connection!"
"Huh! A meeting of minds?" Zackary sneered, his lips curling up in mockery. His eyes were cold and stern, and his whole being seemed to be carved out of ice.
Penelope clearly heard his voice, laden with obvious mockery, and her little face instantly turned terrifyingly pale.
She was truly afraid that, in the next second, Zackary would contemptuously reveal her purpose for coming.
"Lady Fairy?!"
A surprised and excited voice suddenly rang out in the box. Penelope instinctively looked towards the source of the sound, only to find that the man sitting on the sofa was the foreigner who had been with Zackary at Sunlight Snow last time.
Ryan noticed that Penelope had noticed him, which made him even more excited, and he kept waving at her energetically.
Lyman had also heard Ryany's voice. He pulled Penelope over, "Do you know each other?"
Penelope didn't know what to say, a brief encounter could hardly be considered as knowing or not knowing someone.
"Knew it!"
Before Penelope could speak, Ryan had already happily said, "To be precise, I am a one-sided admirer of Lady Fairy! Lady Fairy, I am your loyal fan, your dancing is really nice!"
Ryan gave off an impression of being clean, bright, warm, and sincere. Although his gaze towards her was incredibly intense, it didn't make her feel uncomfortable in the slightest, nor did it give off a sense of offense.
Without any sentiment or bias, only sincere appreciation.
"My Penelope does indeed dance beautifully! You have good taste!" Penelope was complimented, and Lyman was even happier than if he had been praised himself.
Thinking of something, he quickly turned to Ryan and said, "Ryan, what do you think about Penelope auditioning for this advertisement?"
Once it involved his profession, Ryan instantly became incredibly serious, somewhat exuding the aura of an international renowned director.
He scrutinized Penelope carefully, "In terms of appearance, Penelope definitely fits the role of Lady Fairy. However, even for a commercial, I need acting skills. Whether we can use her or not depends on the final effect of the commercial. Lyman, if you really want Lady Fairy to shoot this perfume commercial, you can have her come for a screen test tomorrow. I will make a fair decision."
Advertisement? Casting?
Penelope was utterly confused. She really had no idea what kind of advertisement she could possibly shoot with her current rundown body.
Before Lyman could even speak, Ryan suddenly realized something. He looked at Zackary suspiciously, "Your Penelope? How could it be your Penelope? If I remember correctly, wasn't Lady Fairy with Zackary..."
"Ryan, you were always shouting about human liberation, so why couldn't our Penelope have an ex-boyfriend?!"
Lyman spoke carelessly, but he completely clarified the relationship between Penelope and Zackary.
Ex-boyfriend, no matter how intimate we were before, it's all in the past now.
"Oh!" Ryan exclaimed in sudden realization, "Of course! It's only natural that many men would pursue Lady Fairy, she's so beautiful!"
Ryan laughed and lightly patted Zackary, who was sitting next to him, "Zackary, you really are unlucky! Lady Fairy is such a beautiful girl, and you didn't seize the opportunity. Instead, you let Lyman take the lead and win the beauty!"
Ryan lifted the goblet in front of him, downing the red wine in one gulp, "Lyman, congratulations! What's that old saying in your Goldwald?"
"Yes, to grow old together! I wish you and Lady Fairy to grow old together!"
Originally, Zackary's handsome face had turned completely dark. After hearing what Ryan said, his complexion became even more unsightly.
His fists were clenched so tightly that they creaked, as if, should Ryan dare to utter another word, the bulging veins on the back of his hand would smash his incessant babbling mouth to pieces.
Ryan was so engrossed in his conversation that he didn't notice Zackary's mood. Fearlessly, he slapped the nearby iceberg again, "By the way Zackary, what's the name of your girlfriend again?"
"Oh, I remember now, it's Lola! The Lola who won some award in your country, Goldwald! Zackary, no offense, but your taste..."
"Ryan, you talked too much tonight!"
In response to the warning in Zackary's eyes, the towering figure of Ryany couldn't help but shudder.
He was somewhat afraid of Zackary, who had a terrifyingly high combat power, so he didn't feel right to continue despising him.
He could only change the subject to avoid getting beaten up, "It seems that Miss Lola is also going to audition for the advertisement tomorrow! I'm really curious, in terms of acting, is Miss Lola superior, or is Miss Penelope outstanding!"
Having used two idioms in a row, Ryan was quite pleased with himself. He looked at Penelope with a friendly smile on his face, "Lady Fairy, what do you think of my use of idioms?"
"Huh?" Penelope was slightly taken aback. Ryans was thinking too fast, she really couldn't keep up for a moment.
One second ago it was still Lola, how did it end up on the idiom in the next second?
She savored Ryan's words, only able to respond politely with, "Pretty good!"
Being praised by Penelope, Ryan became even more proud, "I also feel that my Goldwaldian is getting better and better! Lady Fairy, you must come to the audition tomorrow, I have been looking forward to admiring your unparalleled dance again!"
Penelope didn't want to attend any auditions, let alone dance for Ryan. She was considering politely declining his kindness when he poured himself another glass of wine, and one for her as well.
"Lady Fairy, I wished you success in your audition tomorrow!"
After saying this, Ryan suavely drained the glass of wine in front of him.
Ryando had finished his wine, and Penelope felt that it would be quite impolite if she didn't drink a single sip.
But her stomach, really couldn't handle alcohol.
After some thought, she decided to symbolically sip a small amount of wine, at worst she could excuse herself to the restroom to spit it out later.
Her lips had just touched the cup when the goblet in her hand was cheerfully taken away by Lyman.
"How could a man possibly let the woman he likes drink in front of him!" Lyman drained the glass of wine, "Ryany, do you think I, Lyman, am invisible or what!"
