At that, everyone began expressing their thoughts.

“Yes, that’s right! It’s so worth attending Ms. Penelope’s birthday party!”
“My time isn’t wasted here. This is such an honor!”
Even L had a look of surprise on his face. “Mr. Flying Fish? I heard that one needs to offer at
least five hundred thousand before Flying Fish picks up the case and that it’s at least one million for
Zero.” He turned to Penelope. “Are you really Zero? Can I make an order? I’m offering a million, and I
need you to court a woman for me.”
Penelope stiffened, her face pale.
While she was enjoying the attention, she was also anxious.
Nervously, she said, “I… Well, Mr. L, do you really need me to do something as trivial as that?
Isn’t this an overkill?”
Right as she said that, Kate chided, “Have you lost your mind? Why would Zero take on a ridiculous
order like yours?” She smacked L’s arm.
Lughed and said, “I was just joking.” He then turned back to Penelope. “Ms. Penelope, I can’t
believe you have a secret identity. I never thought you’d be Zero. You don’t look like you know any
martial arts.”
Resentment grew in Penelope’s heart. Is L mad? Open your eyes and look at reality! Are you
really Dixon’s cousin? Why are you trying to make things so hard for me?
Even though she had a guilty look on her face, she still straightened her back subconsciously. “Mr.
L, no one says that a secret service agent must know martial arts. It’s not necessary.”
Everyone in the room felt honored and proud.
It had never crossed their minds that Penelope would be Zero and that she could invite Flying Fish
from Mysterious yet Majestic.
The young ones might not have heard of the organization before, but the older ones, like Jason and the
other CEOs, certainly had.
They were pleasantly delighted.
“We never thought you were Zero, Ms. Penelope! We’re fools not to recognize you!”
“Mr. Haddock, you’ve struck gold!”
“Ms. Canter, I can’t believe Zero is your daughter. You’re so lucky!”
Mary was still in a daze.
She had no idea what had just happened.
When did Penelope be a secret service agent? Why does this young man here seem like he’s
someone prominent?
Mary shot Penelope a re and said, “Why did you hide this from me, your mother? I had no idea that
you’re a secret service agent! No wonder you were so sneaky about the things you do.”
Penelope wanted to say that she was not a secret service agent, but she did not dare to.
She could only keep a stiff smile, which only made her look as though she was about to cry. She turned
to Mary and said through clenched teeth, “Mom… don’t say that.”
Sienna chimed in, “Our Penelope is just too low profile! She even managed to keep the fact that she’s
a secret service agent a secret from you. As expected of Zero. If not for Mr. Flying Fishing here
today, we wouldn’t have learned about this!”
Sienna was trying to tell her something else with those words, and Penelope knew.
Even if she was not Zero, she still had to keep up with the act as long as she could keep Flying Fish
there with them.
“That’s right. Penelope’s not like a certain someone who told the whole world about how she was on
friendly terms with Old Mr. Laith so others would be jealous of her.”
“Every time I think about that gloating look of hers, I’m disgusted!”
Everyone in the room knew who they were talking about.
However, Penelope’s smile only stiffened even more.
She would have been delighted if she really was Zero.
She would not have been able to hide it until now. She would have made everyone in Mysterious yet
Majestic celebrate her birthday with her.
s, she was but a fraud.
The longer Jason looked at Penelope’s slightly above-average face, the more pleased and satisfied he
was with her.
She’s my goddaughter, all right. She’s so humble and magnanimous even now.
“Penelope, how could you not have told your mother and me about this? We’re the closest people to
you in this world!”
