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

294 Mukbang

Penny fluttered her eyelashes at the grand entourage waiting for her outside the mansion. But when her eyes fell on Old Mrs. Pierson, who called out to her, she chose to ignore the grand gesture from the Piersons. "My child! You finally arrived!" Old Mrs. Pierson squeezed Zoren's arm, signaling him to escort her to Penny.

Penny smiled and called gently, "Grandma."

Seeing they were about to take the stairs, Penny jumped and jogged up the steps to avoid burdening Old Mrs. Pierson. She quickly reached Old Mrs. Pierson's vantage point without breaking a sweat.

"Haha!" Old Mrs. Pierson chuckled in satisfaction. "You didn't have to run like that, my dear."

"It's alright, Grandma," Penny smiled, raising her brows when Old Mrs. Pierson clasped her

hands. "I run here and there a lot."

Old Mrs. Plerson's laughter grew louder as she elbowed Zoren playfully. Seeing the old madam's action, Penny's brows rose.

"Right," Zoren nodded, and a servant quickly went to him to hand over the bouquet. "Here, for you... my love."

Penny almost choked on her breath when she heard his endearment. She looked at him incredulously before he spoke again.

"Please accept them."

'Don't make it sound like you're being forced! Penny's face twisted a little, but when her eyes fell on the flowers in his hand, she tilted her head slightly. Peonies? I thought I told Benjamin not to bother.'

"Aren't you sweet?" she replied, casually accepting the flowers before shifting her attention to Old Mrs. Pierson. "Grandma, did you tell him to buy me flowers?"

Old Mrs. Pierson nodded proudly. "How did you know, my dear?"

"He never bought me flowers before"

Zoren kept his mouth sealed but knew his wife was stirring trouble for him again. He understood this was her small way of revenge. After all, he knew Penny was aware that Old Mrs. Pierson would scold him. Not that he minded.

"What?" Old Mrs. Pierson frowned at her grandson. "You little... is this true?"
