Penelope's determination to seduce Dixon was reignited at the thought of possibly becoming the next Mrs. Haddock.

Penelope's eyes glinted maliciously despite her gentle smile.

“Oh, this old thing? It's just a regular necklace. It wasn't expensive at all,” she said in a casual tone. “It's a design by X called Azure.”
