Chapter 617
At that moment, without wasting another second to contain her obvious delight at witnessing Sophia's complete humiliation and the magnitude of the disaster she had created, Penelope burst into triumphant laughter that echoed through the store with cruel satisfaction. Her amusement was not merely at the situation itself, but at the perfect vindication of everything she had said about Sophia's character and worthiness.“Just imagine - can you actually believe what Sophia has just accomplished through her carelessness?” she exclaimed with theatrical amazement, her voice dripping with mock disbelief. “Just imagine the absolute catastrophe she has created! Something that was specifically meant to actually reward and honor a man of that extraordinary caliber, someone who fought hard and tirelessly to save our entire city from destruction and disaster!”Her gestures became increasingly animated as she warmed to her theme, clearly relishing every word. “Sophia just destroyed his gift - a pri

At that moment, the man's controlled professional demeanor completely shattered as genuine fury replaced his previously measured business-like tone. His face flushed with anger as he turned his full attention toward Sophia, and his voice rose with barely contained rage that echoed through the now-silent antique store.“Does Sophia actually have any comprehension whatsoever of what this particular pot actually meant, not just in monetary terms but in historical and personal significance?” he demanded, his words coming fast and heated as his frustration poured out. “Does she understand the irreplaceable nature of what she has so carelessly destroyed?”His hand gestured emphatically toward the scattered fragments on the floor as he continued his tirade with mounting intensity. “This was not just some decorative piece sitting on a shelf waiting for any customer to purchase! This pot was worth over eighty million dollars - eighty million! - and it represented months of careful acquisiti
Chapter 615
At that moment, upon hearing what the manager had just said with such sharp criticism and obvious displeasure about Sophia's apparent naivety regarding the severity of her situation, Penelope could not help but feel a surge of vindictive satisfaction at seeing her rival finally being confronted with the true consequences of her actions. A slow, triumphant smile spread across her features as she realized this was the perfect opportunity to position herself as the responsible party who had helped prevent an even worse situation.With calculated precision and the confidence of someone who knew exactly how to work such situations to her advantage, she moved casually but purposefully through the space between where she had been standing and where the well-dressed man was observing the proceedings. Her movements were deliberate and graceful, designed to draw attention and establish her as someone worthy of respect and consideration.Approaching the man with the practiced poise of someone ac

The sales representative immediately fell silent, her mouth closing mid-sentence as she recognized that her manager had her own way of handling such situations and did not require or desire preliminary explanations from subordinates. The manager's eyes continued scanning the scene with professional assessment, taking in every detail with the practiced eye of someone who had dealt with countless difficult situations in luxury retail.Then, without any further preamble or polite social niceties, she went straight to the heart of the matter with the direct approach of someone who valued efficiency over ceremony. Her voice carried clearly through the now-silent store as she asked the most important question with piercing directness.“Who among them destroyed the pot?”Upon hearing what the manager had just asked with such direct authority and professional urgency, needing to identify the responsible party so that the proper procedures could be initiated immediately, the sales attendant w

At that moment, recognizing that the confrontation had taken a dramatically different turn with Damien's specific accusation against one of Penelope's security personnel, Sophia moved closer to Damien's side. She felt a mixture of relief that someone had finally recognized the strange nature of what had happened to her, combined with concern about the potential consequences of making such a serious allegation without absolute proof.Leaning in close enough that her words would only be audible to him, she whispered urgently, “I really hope that what you just said is actually accurate and that you have some way to prove it.” Her voice carried both gratitude for his support and anxiety about the implications of his accusation.“Yes, you're absolutely right about what happened to me,” she continued in hushed tones, her words carrying the weight of someone finally able to share a disturbing experience that others might not believe. “I wasn't able to feel or control my hands properly when

Immediately, hearing what Damien had just said with such calm conviction and apparent knowledge of something she thought was completely secret, Penelope was visibly taken aback for a brief moment. Her confident demeanor wavered slightly as surprise and something that looked remarkably like fear flickered across her features. The accusation had clearly caught her off guard in a way that none of his previous questions had managed to do.However, she quickly recovered and masked whatever genuine reaction she'd had, replacing it with an expression of outraged indignation and theatrical disbelief. Her voice rose to a pitch of scandalized fury as she launched into what appeared to be a defensive counter-attack designed to deflect his accusation through sheer force of outrage.“What the hell is wrong with this good-for-nothing boy?” she demanded loudly, gesturing wildly in Damien's direction as if his very presence was an affront to civilized society. “Do you actually think that I am the ki
