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

"Why are you interested in him, by the way?"

"Just... because," Penny cleared her throat. "Uncle Wild, did you get anything else? Like information about his clients, where he works, and what scam he was running before he disappeared?"

"Yes, thankfully. I sent it to you," Wild replied. "Penny, how's that brat Angel, by

"Your nephew is doing okay. I deployed him to the Piersons."
