Penelope did not care.
She took out her bank card.
Just when Penelope took out her card and gave it to the staff, Ryan behind him was one step ahead. "Swipe this one..."
Penelope quickly refused.
"No need, Ryan! Just swipe mine..."
Ryan curled his lips and smiled. "Why should we be so polite between us? This dress was a gift from me at that time. I hope your career will prosper and this fashion show will become an instant hit and make a strong presence in the industry.”
"Huh?" Penelope was surprised!
She still wanted to say something.
Ryan did not give her a chance to refuse and handed the card to the staff.
Twenty million.
This much money was spent for her…
In exchange for the blue and white porcelain dress.
Penelope was still a little hesitant. Why was Ryan too kind to her?
The staff packed the dress and brought it to Penelope.
Just a brief glimpse of it on the stage was already amazing.
Now looking at it in front of her, Penelope could not take her eyes away.
This stitch was so unique, and the technique was so retro. It was simply a work of art.
It was really hard not to like such a beautiful dress.
"Thank you, Ryan."
Ryan reached out and rubbed her head.
"As long as you like it."
There was unabashed endearment in his eyes, and Dominic, who was not far away, was burning with anger.
"Penelope!"
He walked with a graceful gait.
Stopping in front of them, his eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of the dress in her hand.
Penelope saw him.
The original smile on her face instantly faded away, and her expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book.
"Mr. Archer, what's the matter?"
Seeing her so distant…
His attitude towards Ryan was simply as different as heaven and earth.
Suddenly, Dominic's heart was filled with jealousy.
"Isn't it a bit too prudent to just accept the gift of twenty million dollars?"
He had no idea why she wanted to marry him without hesitation in the first place.
"Mr. Archer, people always move on. The past is the past, so why mention it again?"
"But I can't forget it!"
Penelope smiled.
When she was focused on him, he turned a blind eye. Now that she did not want him anymore, how could he pretend to be affectionate to her?
If this was before their divorce.
She might believe him.
But now…
She just smiled with relief, "Then I wish Mr. Archer would be able to move on soon."
Dominic's heart trembled. There were some things that he seemed to never be able to grasp. "Penelope, should it have to be like this?"
"It's been like this for a long time, isn't it?"
Penelope's attitude was so clear.
There was no hint of weakness at all.
Dominic's heart felt as if he had been pricked by a needle, and there was a dull pain in his heart.
