Chapter 394: Him over my solitude

[PRIME GROUP]

When Penny arrived in her office, she quickly stopped by the door as she caught a person idling in the corner. Sliding her eyes to the figure, her gaze met Hugo's.

"Second Brother," she called with a slight smile, closing the door behind her. "About last night..."

Penny cleared her throat, marching inside, sensing it would be a long morning. "Yes," she answered, placing the new empty handbag Benjamin had gotten for her on the desk. "That's where I spent the night."

for you."

Hugo studied her demeanor and shook his head. There was nothing he thought his sister had done. After all, Hugo had a good impression of Zoren, especially after that night of Zoren and Penny's first date.
