PAMPERED CHAPTER 238

238 Family reunion.

In the van...

"I can't believe all of you!" Slater harrumphed from his seat. "Did you all plan to leave me behind?! You're all so cruel!"

"What do you mean, we're cruel? Third Brother, do you think it's not cruel to mistake someone else for your sister just because of a difference in size?" Penny pouted and narrowed her eyes at him. Slater frowned, his eyes going wide. "Penny... please forgive me! I didn't mean to! How was I supposed to know what you looked like when you didn't even send me a picture of yourself?"

"I didn't know Penny lost some weight," Atlas shrugged. "But I didn't mistake someone else for her"

"First Brother, are you angry at me or what?!" Slater gasped. "As the eldest, shouldn't you side with me?"

"I'm being neutral."

"Or you're trying to say you're the better brother, Hugo chuckled, only to receive death glares from his brothers. "Ha ha... I'll shut up."

Watching them, Haines couldn't help but shake his head. It had been a while since he saw these four together, but they were mostly the same as when they were children.

"Anyway..." Penny glanced out the window, her face twitching. "Third Brother, how come your face is on every block?"

"Heh," Slater smirked proudly. "I told you. This third brother is so famous that I only need to say my first name, and everyone will know who I am."

'But aren't you tired of seeing your face everywhere?' was what Penny wanted to ask, but she just smiled and gazed at the billboard. "Wow. My brother's really famous." "I'm also famous," Hugo blurted out, earning everyone's attention. "Everyone on base knows me, even without seeing my badge."

... Slater snorted. "That's it?"

Hugo frowned. 'How is being a singer better than someone who is fighting for the country?" Surely, Hugo's chosen career was underrated by ungrateful people like Slater. "Quiet down. Uncle Haines and Penny have been on the plane for a day. Let them rest for now," Atlas said while casting Penny and Haines a look. "If they're a bother, I'll drop them off."

"You don't have to, Atlas, Haines chuckled. "Penny and I are used to it."
