"Second Brother? What are you doing here?"

Penny slowly rose from her seat as she watched Hugo march in. Hugo brought out a bouquet from behind his back, making her smile from ear to ear.

"For you," he said. "Congratulations on your first day of operations."

She accepted the flowers with a smile. "Thank you, but I don't like flowers," she said as she gazed down at the bouquet. "Peonies?"

"Dad really put his mind and heart into it, remember?"

"Haha, that was so long ago, and it almost slipped my mind, she chuckled before perking up. "Right. Take a seat. Sorry. I just had a lot of things to do, so today's a little busy."

"It's alright," Hugo said as he sat down on the couch, snapping his eyes to her. "Penny, did you forget our plans today?"

"Hmm?"

"Ginnie will come because she heard that you were coming" Hugo added in a knowing tone.

"Don't worry. The bachelor's party is safe-no one ordered a gigantic cake where a stripper will come out of it. I specifically asked them not to do that."

"Second Brother, is this party yours?"

"Huh?"
