Chapter 127 She Was Skilled at Deceiving People With Her Appearance
Even though Penny hadn't said a word, Norah felt a sense of humiliation she had never experienced
before.
Even Gael, who was still trying to flirt, noticed her unusual behavior and looked up to see Penny,
freezing in place.
After realizing what was happening, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.
"Penny!"
He abruptly let go of Norah and started walking towards her.
Penny furrowed her brows, not understanding where Gael's sudden anger was coming from.
"Mr. Bray."
She politely called out to him, despite the fact that his previous actions were against the spirit of
collaboration. She didn't want to escalate the situation and cause trouble for herself.
"Penny, you've really outdone yourself. I don't know what tricks you used, but Clark Mckay actually
withdrew the contract with me because of you! We've been working together for three years, and I
never expected you to be this kind of person. I thought you were different from other women, but it
turns out you're just a bed companion!"
Penny's face turned cold.
"Mr. Bray, it was you who violated the spirit of the contract first. As for your collaboration with Clark,
that's between your two companies. It's not right to blame me for it, is it?"
Gael looked at her coldly and smirked.
"Just when Clark teamed up with others to deal with you, he turned around and supported you. I heard
that you even had a meal together. It seems like you've pleased him in bed."
"Mr. Bray, I thought you were a respectable person. I didn't expect you to stoop so low as to insult
women. Is this your impotent rage?"
"You!"
Gael's anger made his scalp tingle. As soon as he found out about Clark's breach of contract, he
wanted to confront Penny immediately.
But at that moment, Norah came looking for him, claiming to be from the same studio as Penny. Gael
had already wanted to deal with Penny, and now that he had a comrade-in-arms who could also sleep
with him, it was a win-win situation. Naturally, he didn't refuse.
He didn't expect to run into Penny here.
A hint of maliciousness flashed in his eyes as he pulled Norah closer.
"Fine, Penny. Since you want it this way, don't blame me for never working with you again. My several
affiliated companies will also refuse your projects. Our decoration team is one of the best in the
industry. Let's see what you'll use to decorate Orlando's house this time!"
His face was filled with smugness as he looked Penny up and down.
"But if you're smart, like Norah here, spend a night with me, maybe I can do you a favor."
Penny sneered and stepped into the elevator.
"Don't worry, Mr. Bray, I haven't stooped so low as to be cheap."
This statement insulted both of them.
Norah had originally wanted to nestle in Gael's embrace and play dumb, but upon hearing this, she
was so enraged that she couldn't help but curse.
"You despicable person!"
But at that moment, the elevator doors had already closed, leaving her feeling frustrated, like punching
cotton.
Norah's face twisted in anger. Damn it!
Then, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes.
What was Penny doing here at the hotel? And in such a luxurious one too? She had never seen her act
so extravagantly before.
Could it be that Penny, like her, was here tonight to seduce a wealthy man?
Norah sneered. Just as she was about to coax Gael a bit more, she saw someone entering the lobby-it
was Orlando!
Norah had seen him before and had even spoken ill of Penny in front of him.
Now, another opportunity presented itself!
Norah quickly let go of Gael and hurriedly walked towards Orlando.
"Mr. Fletcher, we meet again. I don't know if you remember me."
Orlando's eyes were cool and indifferent, and for a moment, he didn't recall until Norah started
introducing herself.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
"Perry and I are from the same studio. We've mentioned it before. Whenever Perry collaborates with a
client, the client's wife always insists on a replacement. Tonight, I happened to run into her at the hotel.
I don't know if she specifically came here to confront you, Mr. Fletcher."
"Hmm."
Orlando's tone was cold as he bypassed her and entered the elevator.
Norah didn't dare to get too close and continued, "I work with her, so I know all about her dirty thoughts.
She's just used to deceiving people with her appearance."
Orlando didn't pay much attention to her words until he arrived at his suite and saw Penny waiting
obediently by the door.
She leaned against the wall, the light above her head casting a halo on her hair. Her skin was pale,
giving her a delicate and cold appearance, but deep down, she was more stubborn than anyone.
At least Norah was right about one thing-she was skilled at deceiving people with her appearance.
Her eyes were exceptionally beautiful. Otherwise, he wouldn't have lost control on their first night
together.
At least Penny's appearance did match his taste.
If only she didn't have that mouth.
