Chapter 724
Ever since Penelope followed Mary to live in the Count's Mansion, people flattered her wherever she went. As such,
she had never suffered such indignity as of now.
Furthermore, she had forgotten her unsavory past in H Nation, especially about her constantly changing boyfriends.
She chose to forget her past and only remembered that she was the Count's granddaughter. Thus, setting herself
on a high pedestal.
Penelope turned to Ryan and hoped that he would say something to help her.
However, Ryan's expression remained stern. His eyes looked as cold as the diamond stud on his ear.
“U-Uncle Ryan, I...” Penelope stuttered.
“You did not grow up in the Yates family, so you have never received our strict upbringing or know our customs. If
something like this happens in the Count's Mansion, your grandmother would have punished you and ordered you
to kneel for three days in the memorial hall!” Ryan said coldly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPenelope has a lot of problematic behaviors that need to be dealt with. Otherwise, she would cause us shame.
Then, the Yates family would become the laughing stock of Maredania's aristocrats.
Ryan felt furious as he thought about this.
Meanwhile, Penelope's face burned with anger.
She believed Ryan was only treating her like this because he was disgusted by the fact that she grew up in the Bery
family.
That must be why he's scolding me before the crowd. How could he humiliate me like this?
Her face turned pale as she thought about her situation. She began to feel dizzy from anxiety.
However, she remembered Ryan saying she had to kneel for three days in the memorial hall. Thus, she glanced at
the scene before her and decided quickly.
However, she remembered Ryan saying she had to kneel for three days in the memorial hall. Thus, she glanced at

Since Uncle Ryan already disdains me, Granny would probably hate me even more if she finds out about this. I can't
get kicked out of the Yates family. I guess I have no choice but to do as Ryan says.
Penelope gritted her teeth as she came near Ashlyn and Charlotte before saying, “I'm sorry. I was too rash just now.
My Brand X necklace was a gift from Uncle Ryan, so I really treasure it. Since Ms. Lynch's necklace looks similar to
mine, I thought it was mine. It was unintentional. I didn't expect something like this to happen.”
Brand X's prestige was not limited to necklaces. Even a small-sized brooch from this brand would cost a hefty sum.
Therefore, anyone would be anxious when they lost something from Brand X.
Although Penelope looked apologetic, she still sounded like she did nothing wrong.
Everyone in Lake City knows the Fraser family had adopted Charlotte but has later disowned her. So why would she
have the money to buy a Brand X necklace? I'm sure the necklace is fake.
Although Charlotte had autism before and had an innocent personality, she was not stupid.
She smiled and said, “Ashlyn gifted me this necklace. I cherish every gift from her. Even if it's a sheet of paper or a
flower plucked from the roadside, I would still be happy to receive it because Ashlyn gave it to me with a sincere
heart. I am honored and thankful to receive her gifts.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCharlotte paused and continued, “It does not matter how much the gift costs. Besides, what makes you think that
Ashlyn can't afford to gift me a brand X necklace?”
Joseph stood at the entrance and wanted to rush in when he noticed people surrounding Ashlyn and Charlotte.
However, Fae stopped him and shook her head. “Lottie needs to learn to be independent. No one can help her with
this. Instead, she needs to pull herself out of the situation”
Joseph, who was worried about Charlotte, was stumped upon hearing Fae. “But Mom...”
“Did you not notice how she is? She has matured a lot and has surprised us with her growth. I believe she will
amaze us even more in the future!” Fae looked affectionately at Charlotte speaking in the middle of a crowd.
Somehow, Charlotte's demeanor vaguely reminds me of Ashlyn. Could it be my imagination?
“Charlotte, do you have no shame?” A sharp voice interrupted Fae and Joseph's conversation. They looked in the
direction of the said voice and saw Jenny shoving Charlotte.
“You're wearing a fake Brand X necklace. I can't believe you have the audacity to sound so righteous still. Besides,
everyone knows you're just an adopted daughter of the Fraser family, and everyone knows they've already chased
you out. Thus, you are now homeless like a stray and have no qualification or social standing. So how could you
afford to wear expensive jewelry? I don't think you can even afford to pay for a gram of gold!” Jenny scolded.
