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

Chapter 300

300 Don't forget about that fact

When everyone left, Zoren and Penny remained where they were, knowing there was no longer any danger. Penny stayed seated on the grass with Renny, while Zoren stood a few steps away. "He likes you, Zoren said, earning a glance from her. "That's strange."

"Is it?"

Penny let out an awkward laugh. "Well, I guess it is."

She shrugged and looked away, focusing on the black panther beside her. Another shallow breath slipped past her as she rubbed its broad back.

"Twelve years ago, he was just a small cub. He was even lighter than Mouse,' she thought, smiling at the memory. 'But now, he's grown so big. I can't carry him anymore."

"I'll take this call first, Zoren said after a moment, referring to his call having been interrupted

earlier.

"Sure."

Penny watched him walk away with his phone in hand. He spoke the command aloud, so she heard the name of the person he was calling. She didn't dwell on it, though.

"Blacky, look at him," she mumbled. "He acts like he doesn't have a problem, but he can't even see my face."

She gazed down at Renny, only to see the black panther meet her eyes. "Was he always like this when he left for treatment?"

The black panther moved its head closer to her leg.

"He probably worries you a lot too, huh?" she whispered, placing her hand on top of his head. "He worries me a lot as well. He's surrounded by enemies, and they don't even realize he's been

ill all his life."

How pitiful.

Whenever she thought of Zoren, her heart always felt heavy and vulnerable. Perhaps it was because, apart from caring for him as a friend, she saw the old Penny in him. Not that Zoren was chasing acceptance from his own family, but because even if he tried, there was no way they would see him as family and not as a threat to their power.

"It must be hard looking after him, huh? He's stubborn and foolish. Do you know he goes to that place every Thursday?" she muttered, complaining to Blacky because she didn't know where else. to dump these emotions.
