In front of everyone.

Penny wasn't outright admitting she was capable of poisoning someone to death, but the way she said it made people think twice. Where there's smoke, there's fire; it wouldn't hurt to take her words with a grain of salt.

He raised a finger, pointing at her while shaking his head. "I don't care that you have a company of your own. Miss Penelope Bennet, I will not let this slide. Zoren may protect you all he wants, but no one is above the law! I won't overlook this attempted murder!"

"You! You're unbelievable!" William felt he might choke on his own anger, only to realize the red laser lights on him disappeared in an instant. Mark also stepped back, bowing his head to Penny before finding a place behind Zoren's seat.
