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

Nina's romance slightly worried Penny because her last memory of Finn wasn't good. However, that was twelve years ago. Twelve years is a long time for someone to change; Nina changed. Penny had met so many people along the way, and they weren't the same as

how she

remembered them.

Penny, for instance, wasn't the same as she knew herself twelve years ago, nor was she the same. as she was in her previous life.

Nina wouldn't fall for someone like Finn if he was still as narcissistic as he used to be... right?

"Ahh... I shouldn't think about that." Penny shook her head as she rummaged through her closet. for a change of clothes. "Nina is a smart woman. Besides, I have my own problems with some... marital affairs."

Her brothers were probably worried about Nina's engagement because she was still their family. Their reaction to the thought of Penny dating was scary. Hence, it was understandable. Their worries were natural because Nina was the first to marry.

With that thought in mind, Penny quickly changed into casual and comfortable attire. She didn't have any plans for today, so she was planning to visit her mom and aunt's restaurant to help out. But as soon as she finished dressing, she paused and picked up her phone. "He still hasn't reached out," she whispered, checking her last text exchange with Zoren. "Did something happen to him?"

Penny pursed her lips as she squinted.

She had learned her lesson about rushing things not long ago.

Tomorrow was the day Penny's bodyguards would start at Pierson Corporation under Zoren Pierson. Therefore, Penny didn't think much about Zoren or anything related to him. They would meet eventually, anyway.

"But he should've at least reached out to discuss our divorce, right?" she furrowed her brows and tilted her head to the side. "Yet, there's no word from him. Not even from his assistant. Though his team is cooperating with the Prime Group." Penny bit her lip and hesitated, noticing that he hadn't responded when she asked him if he had

Her thumb stopped typing, and she ended up deleting the entire message.

"Never mind," she shrugged and tossed her phone onto the vanity desk. "I can ask him

She only needed to wait for a day..
