Chapter 723
The back of Charlotte's necklace pendant had a unique double X logo. The larger X represented X Corporation, and
the smaller X meant the necklace was Director X's design.
Everything Director X designed had this double X logo, be it clothes or jewelry.
Almost everyone who kept up to date with news about X Corporation knew about this detail.
Why does Ashlyn have a necklace designed by Director X? How is this possible? It even has a big star-shaped
diamond. Could it be a fake?
Penelope did not dare to say Charlotte's necklace was hers.
However, she could not admit her mistake in public either, as it would be embarrassing.
Caught in a rock and a hard place, she was aware that she would be humiliated no matter which choice she made.
Just then, a velvety voice sounded from the entrance to backstage. “Your necklace is here with me.”
Everyone could not help but turn toward the voice.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey saw a tall man in a white suit and dark red tie walking in.
He looked elegant and imposing. The streak of blue hair above his forehead was especially eye-catching.
“Uncle Ryan...” Penelope bit her lower lip and looked at Ryan as he approached her.
Ryan had a diamond stud on his left ear. It was brilliantly eye-catching.
His eyes were ice-cold as he turned to Penelope. Then, he unfurled his palm, revealing a delicate necklace.
The necklace had a thin chain and a tiny diamond. As it was a Brand X necklace, it had exquisite workmanship. Still,
it paled in comparison to the necklace around Charlotte's neck.

The crowd was astute and instantly saw the marked difference between Charlotte's necklace and Penelope's
necklace.
Penelope felt humiliated as she took the thin necklace from Ryan. She forced herself to smile and said, “Uncle Ryan,
why is the necklace with you?”
“You dropped it in my room after you got off the plane last night. I only saw it this morning.” Ryan looked down at
Penelope and was displeased with her shameful behavior.
Ashlyn narrowed her almond-shaped eyes and said in an icy tone, “Penelope, you caused a scene and framed
Charlotte and me for no reason. Don't you think you should apologize to us?”
Penelope's face turned pale as she stood rooted to her spot. She felt thoroughly humiliated.
I am the granddaughter of a Count. These lower-class people have no right to demand an apology from me! They
are not even worthy of being my servant and can only hope to look at me from afar!
Penelope stood still and refused to speak.
The atmosphere grew tense as everyone focused their attention on her.
Previously, Jenny never cared about piano competitions. She only came this time due to Penelope's invitation.
Penelope also paid for her ticket and said they were there to cheer for Hera.
Although Jenny knew Ryan, the Piano Prince, was Penelope's uncle, she never expected to find him that good-
looking in person.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe is absurdly handsome!
Therefore, she could not help but want to make a good impression before Ryan and lashed out at Ashlyn to defend
Penelope. “Aren't you too much? Penelope did not mean it. Since it was an honest mistake, you should treat it as a
joke and forget it. Why do you insist on making her apologize?”
On the other hand, Ryan could not stand it anymore. He furrowed his brow and looked at Penelope with a
displeased expression. Why is Penelope friends with someone like that? That woman is shockingly lacking in morals
and principles!
“Ms. Ashlyn is right. The Yates family does not tolerate something like this. Penelope, apologize to her,” Ryan
ordered sternly.
Olivia pursed her lips and smirked. “Mr. Yates is just and wise. One could not let certain people ruin the reputation of
the Count's Mansion.”
Many contestants among the crowds and their family members could not help but voice out their thoughts. “That's
right.”
“Precisely. You should apologize for wrongly accusing someone.”
