Zoe's face turned as green as freshly mown grass in an instant. Her mouth hung open, but not a single word managed to escape. This is it. It's all over! How in the world did Penelope sneak in? Did she hear everything Zoe just said to Yuna? Zoe's brain went into overdrive, desperately trying to come up with a story to smooth things over.
But Penelope, cold as ice, brushed past Zoe and strode into the living room, her eyes blazing with fury as she confronted Yuna:
"Yuna, you're only 25, so young yet your heart is darker than anyone's! How could you do such things? Not only did you snatch away Marguerite's child, but you also took my daughter's place!"
Zoe's mind buzzed, and she hurried forward to explain:
"Ma'am! There's been a misunderstanding! You got it all wrong! It was all a joke between me and Yuna! You can't take what we said seriously!"
Penelope couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity:
"After all that's been said and done, you really think you can play me for a fool? The venom in your words outside was palpable. Do I need to spell it out for you?"
Yuna, initially a bit guilty, realized that it didn't matter now that Penelope had heard everything. No matter how Zoe tried to explain, it was all in vain! And truly, Yuna was fed up with Penelope's aggressive demeanor. She wasn't her mother. Who was she to scold her?
What a joke!
Fueled by anger, Yuna let loose, not caring about the consequences:
