Chapter 59 His Attitude Changed Quickly
Fiona was so nervous that her fingertips were shivering. Ruby went to the restroom to pick up Fiona,
who was a mess, and walked her to the staff room to get changed.
Ruby had a crush on Clark. When Fiona was changing her clothes, she told Fiona that she saw Clark
and, the president of Parker Technology, Parker. Ruby also mentioned Penny, whom she knocked right
into.
Fiona hated Penny so much. When she saw the bracelet on Ruby's wrist, she came up with a plan.
Fiona hid Ruby's bracelet somewhere. When Ruby realized that her bracelet was missing, Fiona said,
"Could it be that the woman you knocked right into stole it?"
Ruby was reminded of Penny, so she came to Penny and confronted her.
At this moment, Ruby didn't think that she had done wrong. On the contrary, she hated Penny even
more. If Penny hadn't stolen her bracelet, Ruby would feel ashamed.
Ruby's crush was there, and losing face in front of him was worse than killing her. So when Fiona
spoke, Ruby went along.
"Right, no one's going to pull the surveillance! Penny's the one who stole it. I saw it with my own eyes.
She was standing in a blind spot. How could a security camera have captured that? I think Penny just
stalling for time!"
The security guards were in a dilemma as Chace asked them to pull the surveillance while Ruby and
Fiona said no.
Chace looked at Orlando. "Mr. Fletcher, you..."
Orlando's face instantly went cold. The principal of the university was so weak. "Zane, you go."
Orlando's tone was cold, and his glare was icy.
Chace dared not delay any longer and looked at the security staff with a serious face. "You guys take
Zane there."
Penny was amused to see Chace's attitude change so quickly. The corners of her mouth curved
upwards, but she couldn't laugh about it. After all, Chatville University was her alma mater.
Chace was able to beat out the other candidate to be principal only because he was a fence-sitter.
If Chace continued to be the principal, more and more students would be maligned like Penny.
Therefore, it was a good thing if the investors saw Chace's true colors.
There were a few couches in the very center of the exhibition hall, and there were waiters serving
coffee.
Orlando walked towards the couch. It seemed that he was going to wait here for the truth to come out.
Penny knew that Orlando was not propping her up. The Fletcher Group, as the largest investor of
Chatville University, would not sit by and watch Chace get stuck in such a dilemma today.
Orlando was a businessman, and what came to his mind was naturally whether the deal was worth the Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
expected investment.
As soon as Chace left, Zoey rushed over and dragged Penny behind Orlando to keep Penny from
being bullied.
Although Penny was reluctant, she didn't yank Zoey's hand away. After all, the little girl Zoey was doing
this for Penny's own good.
Zoey put her arm around Penny's shoulder, and they sat next to Orlando.
Penny keenly felt an icier chill coming up off Orlando. She wondered if it was because of her proximity
to him.
Chace and the others stood not far away, embarrassed, and did not know what to do.
Chace didn't dare to offend Ruby. He had no choice but to take it out on Fiona. "Look what you've
done! What did you bother with a lightweight for?"
Fiona's face was pale. She had only just been appointed director, and if this incident had bad
influences on the school, she would probably be removed from her position.
Fiona had worked hard for so many years and wouldn't be reconciled to this...
She gritted her teeth and glared resentfully at Penny.
Ruby met Fiona's eyes and hastened to comfort her. "Ms. Bender, don't worry. The police and Zane are
going to check the surveillance. Ruby, that nuisance, will be finished!"
Fiona's lips began to tremble. She somewhat regretted coming up with this bad idea.
What should she do now?
Right!
There was no surveillance in the staff room. Even if there was no evidence that Penny stole the
bracelet, no one could also prove that Fiona took it on purpose. Fiona was relieved at the thought.
Fiona smiled coldly as she looked at Penny's back with a vicious look in her eyes.
Penny ignored the weird and terrible atmosphere and looked at Orlando sitting next to her. "Mr.
Fletcher, did you look at the proposals I gave you last night?"
Orlando didn't even look at her, and his tone was cold. "If you have any ideas, act on them. You don't
need to tell me about it."
Orlando meant that he hadn't looked at her proposals yet.
But Penny thought it was fundamental to discuss these programs with her employer. How could she put
her ideas into practice without discussing them with him?
Orlando made it clear that he didn't want to talk to her, so she sensibly kept her mouth shut.
The police arrived almost as soon as Zane pulled out the surveillance footage.
Zane stood in front of Orlando, bowing his head respectfully. "Mr. Perry, we've checked. Between the
time Ms. Foster bumped into Ms. Stuart and the time she entered the staff room, Ms. Foster was
wearing the bracelet all this time. I guess Ms. Foster left her bracelet in the staff room."
As soon as Zane finished speaking, Orlando looked at Ruby.
Ruby frowned. "Are you sure? But I think she's the one who stole it."
Zane nodded. "The surveillance shows that clearly."
Even if Ruby was unpleased, she had to be reconciled to this now. Ruby thought, "How about I deal
with Penny after today?"
"Even so, I think Penny should apologize to me. She talked to me in a bad manner and said bad things
about the Foster family."
