Chapter 386 She Refuses To Back Down

Penelope's face turned ashen at the words, yet she continued to glare at Carlos with simmering

resentment.

Carlos returned a cold gaze.

Penelope immediately felt wronged. "I despise you. If you can't love me, why are you so kind to me? You made me fall in love with you, but you don't want me. This is all your fault!"

This time, the gentle-hearted Carlos truly suffered the greatest malice.

He had never imagined that his own kindness would stabs him in the back.

Despite the fact that his intentions were solely to cherish talent, he couldn't help but feel pity for

Penelope's unfortunate family circumstances. All he desired was to nurture another world-class talent for the sake of the nation....

All of this had hit him hard.

Behind every pitiful person, there must be their hateful deeds. Some people were simply destined not to be treated kindly.

He looked at Penelope, who was still unrepentant and sheered. "You're right, it was my mistake. So, rest assured. I won't be nice to you anymore!""

Upon hearing these words, Penelope's face drained of all expression,

Heh, it's safe to say that nobody will treat Penelope kindly in the future. Once the truth about this incident comes to light, she'll be known as a backstabber. Penelope has surely given everyone a lesson. Who would dare to be nice to her in the future, only to be stabbed in the back?

The Quirks agreed with Isabella. From that point on, anyone who dared to treat Penelope kindly would simply be out of their minds, since she would bite the hand that fed her.

One could only say that Penelope had drawn attention to herself through her online outburst, but it had also backfired on her.

With these thoughts in ind, Christopher, who was quite savvy about the internet, rubbed his chin leaned toward Alexander, and said, "Even if the truth comes out, by the time the police station reaches a conclusion and posts it online, won't it be too late? Public opinion, after all..."

He had discussed this matter with Alexander before. After all, handling public opinion was the most troublesome, especially since they had very high social standing This only made them more likely to be treated harshly in the court of public opinion. Even when the truth was laid bare, others would still contrive various conspiracy theories.

Perhaps if Penelope had apologized, she might have salvaged the situation. But given her frantic state, could she have reasoned things out?" Christopher uttered, clicking his tongue in disapproval.

No sooner had the words been spoken, when suddenly, Christopher heard Isabella chuckling softly.

Bewildered, he then saw Alexander's lips curl into a smirk, subsequently giving a nod toward the lawyer in

Chapter 386 She Refuses To Back Down

Finisher

Upon receiving instructions, the lawyer abruptly addressed Penelope, "Ms. Watson, if you're willing to issue a statement, admit your mistake, and vindicate M. Carlos, thereby restoring his reputation, we might consider the matter resolved." Upon hearing these words, some school teachers actually tried to persuade Penelope to admit her mistake

Penelope, with her foolish nature, was unlikely to back down. Perhaps, she hadn't fully grasped the terrifying implications of committing a crime and being imprisoned. She considered her actions as nothing more than a failed love pursuit that caused a scene, not a serious matter. However, deep down, she did feel somewhat uneasy.

However, when Penelope's parents approached her, forcing her to accept their arrangements, she exploded in a flurry of curses and blows.

She pushed her parents away as if she had lost all sanity, yet she dared not utter a word to them. All she could muster was a furious declaration. "I refuse! Even if I face prosecution, I will not let the one who betrayed my trust escape unscathed!" Penelope was madly confronting Carlos. "Your loss, not wanting me. You should have saved me from the abyss but refused to give me a home. It's all your fault! You deserve my revenge. I know you want to erase the damage to your online reputation, but don't even think about it. As long as I don't apologize, even if the pieces of evidence are uploaded, it won't matter. Those jealous bugs out there will undoubtedly bite you with questions. Everyone will think it's a sham, and those self-proclaimed netizens on the internet will start doubting you. I can easily play the victim in such a situation.

Do you think you can still be a teacher then? People will never fully trust you, because you've com ard

an unforgivable act. You made me, a mere schoolgirl, fall in love with you and consider suicide. It's a stain on your character that you can never wash away, a permanent blemish. Haha."

Penelope's face was twisted in fury, her attitude resembled that of someone who had given up all hope. She vented her madness, and everyone watched her as if she were a lunatic, replaceing it inconceivable.
