Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

"Dad, that is a weird-looking cat."

And that shifted everyone's attention to the big cage on top of the table.

Atlas barely had a glimpse of its face, but based on its size and body type, he assumed it was a cat.

Allison and Haines secretly bit their tongues as they snuck a look at Charles. Charles had this blank look on

his face.

"That... that's not a cat," Haines breathed out, making Atlas furrow his brows.

If it wasn't a cat, then was it a baby hippo with hair?

"Mom, are we keeping pets now?" Slater frowned as he glanced at the cage. He let go of his mother's waist and approached the table, lowering his head to look at the cat. His face instantly crumpled in dismay.

"Is this a hybrid pet?" he blurted out, looking back at Charles curiously. "Dad, is this one of those exotic

types?"

Curious, Atlas also lowered his head to examine the

little animal inside.

Their family never kept pets for some reason. Not that Atlas hated them, he just couldn't take care of it. But he also knew Hugo wanted to have a pet on his own, but didn't ask because of their younger siblings. Only when Penny came and rescued a cat did a pet step into the mansion. It wasn't a problem so far because Atlas could see Penny taking care of her pets and not relying on the servants all the time.

"It does look exotic..." Atlas rubbed his chin, unable to tell if this was a cat or another breed of rabbit. "Why does it look so hideous, though?"

Haines and Allison's gaze automatically went down, not willing to check on Charles anymore. They could already imagine how devastated Charles was at this second.

"Dad, are you okay?" Nina asked innocently, seeing that their father turned pale.

Charles listlessly looked at his boys and then at Haines and Allison. Those two lied to him. He knew it! He messed it up!
