315 Atlas has lost its mind!

“Hahaha!” Hugo’s laughter and claps echoed across the office. “That’s so funny! No wonder Allen looked so nervous, and everyone outside too!”

Allen’s frown deepened as he glanced at Hugo, who was doubled over with laughter, clutching his stomach.

“That… is… not nice–pfft!” Hugo broke out into laughter again. “You should’ve told Allen! He must’ve felt so embarrassed! Hahaha!”

“Sir Hugo, I feel more embarrassed by how you’re laughing at me,” Allen sighed. If it weren’t for Hugo’s uncontrollable laughter, Allen might have felt more shocked and relieved rather than embarrassed. Despite his remark, Hugo tried and failed -to stifle his laughter.

Atlas shook his head at his second brother, then cast a look at Allen. “He can be shameless, but I hope you learned a big lesson today. As my right hand, you should know me better than anyone. I don’t engage in scandalous affairs, nor do I indulge in temporary bliss.”

“Yes, sir.” Allen lowered his head. “I shouldn’t have doubted you. I’ve learned my lesson now!

“First Brother, don’t be too hard on him,” Penny chuckled, watching Allen slowly raise his head. “I’m really sorry about that. I was just being playful, but what my brother said was right. You should know him better than anyone.”

“Yes, Miss Penelope.” Allen lowered his gaze, while Penny offered him a subtle smile.

Even though Allen had thought she was Atlas’s mistress, he hadn’t treated her poorly. In fact, everyone here had remained professional. Penny couldn’t help but compare this experience to the people directly under Zoren Pierson.

“But then again, Atlas’s life was never in danger,‘ she thought, considering the long list of life–and–death situations Zoren had faced over the years. ‘So, I really can’t blame that vitamin–deficient man for going the extra mile in repelling everyone. They also kept telling me I’m not the first one to approach Renren with such intentions.”

Penny could only imagine what Zoren had experienced for his assistant to act like his mother. “Anyway, Hugo, that’s enough, Atlas warned, watching his brother wipe his eyes. “You’re hurting Allen’s pride even more. I think that punishment is enough.”

“I’m not trying to punish him…..”

“But I am,” Atlas confessed, snapping his eyes to his assistant. “Now, that’s enough. He’s learned his lesson”

Don’t worry, we’ve all been through it, right, Penny?” “Haha… don’t mention it, Penny laughed awkwardly, recalling how many times Atlas had dragged her into his nonsense as
