Chapter 311
Carlene was as white as a sheet; why would Maja show up just now?
Maja looked at her, showing a bit of surprise.
“Ms. Shepard, have you met that woman? Why would you think it was me? If I didn’t show up today,
would everyone think I’m some kind of floozy?”
That’s exactly it. If Maja hadn’t shown up, these people would think the designer lan hired was getting
cozy with a bodyguard. Rumors spread like wildfire.
Carlene broke out in a cold sweat at the question. If she answered wrong, her reputation would take a
hit.
She quickly spoke up.
“Penny, you only showed up for a bit last night and then left, I thought…”
“You thought it was me without even checking. We don’t have any beef; if it’s because I’m working for
Mr. Raymond, then you can talk to him about ending our partnership instead of trying to smear my
name behind my
back.”
Hearing this, Carlene’s eyes instantly reddened, and she bowed her head.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to; I heard the bodyguard call out your name.”
She didn’t hesitate to throw the bodyguard under the bus.
The bodyguard froze; he had no idea who Penny was.
Maja looked at him and spoke.
“I’ve never met you.”
The bodyguard’s throat went dry with fear; these were all high–status people, and he couldn’t afford to
offend them.
He quickly defended himself.
“I’m sorry, this woman’s also called Penny, so I just called her that; I’m sorry, I have to take her and
leave now.”
Dana had been quietly tugging at the bodyguard’s hand, shaking like a leaf.
She thought she could get away with it, but now that Penny had actually shown up. If she stayed here
any longer, her cover would be blown!
She would definitely lose her reputation then!
She kept pinching the bodyguard, who quickly wrapped his arm around her and tried to move forward.
As she passed Connie, Connie subtly stuck out her leg, blocking the woman who didn’t dare show her
face.
She tripped forward, her clothes instantly falling off, leaving her in an awkward heap on the floor.
When she got up, her hickey–covered body and face were exposed for all to see.
There were gasps.
“Isn’t that Dana?”
“When did Dana start going by Penny? Does she even have that name?”
“Carlene should’ve seen Dana’s face just now; if she did and still let us continue misunderstanding,
then…”
Afraid of being implicated, Carlene immediately put on a surprised face.
“Dana? You…how…”
Dana was seething with anger, wanting to leave in embarrassment.
Her legs were weak, and she was in shock; she couldn’t stand up for a while.
Maja stood by, looking down at Dana, and softly laughed.
“So it’s Ms. Shepard again.”
This sentence was full of implications, telling everyone that these two women were in cahoots and
Carlene was likely covering up on purpose, trying to protect Dana’s reputation.
Carlene was angry. At this point, she could only throw Dana under the bus to bear the brunt of public
opinion.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe raised her hand and, without hesitation, slapped Dana.
“You’re such a disappointment! How could you do something like this!”
na’sley
Tears immediately filled Dana’s eyes, and she covered her face.
“I’m sorry…I was forced; I was forced last night.”
Carlene turned to the bodyguard with a stern face.
“Dana is a daughter of the Shepard family; how dare you treat her like this? Do you know this is illegal!”
The bodyguard was startled and immediately knelt down.
“Ms. Shepard, I really don’t know what happened, I only had a drink, and then I started feeling off.”
Carlene took a deep breath, quickly diverting everyone’s attention to the drink instead of why Dana was
impersonating Penny.
“Don’t make excuses; I’ll get the Haskins family to investigate this immediately. Even if someone really
drugged the wine, you are still guilty!”
Maja knew Carlene’s plan and was trying to cover up the–impersonation.
The crowd did start to wonder where the drink came from because of her words.
Maja chuckled.
“Ms. Shepard, the drink should be looked into, but I want to ask the bodyguard; it seems Dana doesn’t
have the name “Penny“. How could you get it wrong?”
Carlene hated her; why was she still hanging on to this issue?
