The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Tracy never wanted to do anything to Penny. She had no desire to derive pleasure from harming others. If Penny had just obediently refrained from discussing the incident, Tracy could easily pretend as if nothing had occurred. She could have even turned a blind eye even if the acting skills displayed by that small group were worse than her own.

Unfortunately, everything was going smoothly until Penny suddenly went haywire and planned to spill the beans to the meddlesome Monica. Tracy was aware that Penny was merely contemplating an idea, but once an idea took root, it was only a matter of time before that idea was acted upon.

Furthermore, Monica always opposed her many times. Going against her had essentially sealed Monica's fate, as Tracy was not prepared to let a blonde jeopardize her future as a superstar.

'I'm not ruthless,' Tracy thought to herself. 'It's a shame that Roland had to find out what you knew. He's terrified of other people discovering his misdeeds, which is why he took the initiative to deal with you. It has nothing to do with me.'

Tracy looked at the cityscape from her high-floor vantage point, and she did not even bother to draw the curtains because the light outside did not fear her.

What Roland did was independent of her actions. He was a coward who decided to deal with Penny simply because he was afraid of the possibility that he would get into trouble. Only Tracy had leverage over him, and Roland would always keep his mouth shut and behave obediently in her presence.
