When Jayla thought of how Penny had once set up her Auntie Kiki like this time and again, and how Christ was also so indiscriminate in right and wrong and would only protect Penny, the little fire in her heart rubbed off.
"Mr. Birkin, when you asked me to apologize to Penny, did you decide that I was the one who did wrong? If the wrong person is Penny, shouldn't she apologize to me too?!"
"If you make a mistake, you should apologize!" Christ paused and then said, "No matter who made the mistake tonight, the person who did the wrong thing should apologize!"
"Good, then let Penny apologise to us!" Jaden spoke coldly as he smoothly put his mobile phone into Christ's hand.
Penny was really quite intoxicated by the performance just now, and didn't even notice that he was secretly recording it.
Jaden always liked to speak with evidence, and Penny was not good for them, so how could they meekly wait to be framed by her!
The video on Jaden's phone had just been tapped and Penny's malicious voice rang out.
"Christ is very fond of you now, but if he knows that you poured that hot fish soup over me, do you think he would still like you?!"
"Christ is mine, even if Kiki gave birth to you, she won't be able to be Mrs. Birkin again!"
From the video, it can be clearly seen that Penny opened the lid of the bucket, then picked up the bucket and poured most of the hot fish soup on the back of her hand.
Christ looked at this video in his phone incredulously, but this kind of video was impossible to fake, just now, it was indeed Penny who had framed Jaden and Jayla!
He dreaded to think that Penny, whom he had always believed in so much, would set up two children so viciously!
He had always thought that Penny was simple and kind, and that it was all others who were harming her, and that she would never harm anyone else.
Now it seemed that Penny was not what he thought she was.
Christ couldn't help but think, even Penny could set up two small children, six years ago, she said Kiki killed her child, wasn't that also a set up?
Almost immediately, Christ dismissed this idea, when the police found skin flakes on Penny's body under Kiki's fingernails, Kiki must have pushed Penny!
Seeing the video, Penny was straight away dumbfounded, how could she have ever thought that two five year old kids would be savvy enough to take a video of her spilling her guts just now!
Jaden took his mobile phone, looked at this Christ, one word at a time, "Mr. Birkin, now that the facts are in the eyes, the person who did wrong should apologize to me and Jayla!"
"I ......"
Penny's face was flustered, and after a moment of contemplation, she still planned to use her best act of pity to muddle through in front of Christ.
She nestled into Christ's arms and cried so pitifully, "Christ, I was wronged, I was really framed, you must believe me! Christ, you said that I am the kindest girl in the world, I couldn't even hurt a small animal, how could I possibly frame someone else?"
In the past, whenever Penny cried in his arms, Christ would be heartbroken, feeling especially sorry for her and saying some warm and soft words to comfort her.
But at this moment, looking at the tears on Penny's face, he only felt annoyed and disgusted.
