Chapter 452: Can I see your marriage license?

Meanwhile...

"Hmm..." Penny and a few of the men with her held the menu up to their faces. She slowly peeked over the top, squinting as she eyed her first brother and Zoren.

From the looks of it, Zoren and Atlas were casually talking. Her lips formed an "O" shape, a little surprised at how peaceful both men appeared. It was as though they were just friends catching up over tea.

"Miss Penny," one of the men whispered, his head lowered until his chin was almost touching the table. "I don't think we should be here now. They seem to be getting along well!"

Another peeked over the menu before ducking back down. "I think we should go."

Their location provided enough cover, but if only they acted normally, they would have looked less suspicious. Alas, because of Penny, the two men with her couldn't help but attract more attention than intended.

"This is suspicious," Penny muttered, squinting as she lowered her head until her chin was almost touching the table. "They shouldn't be getting along."

"Huh?" Both men looked at her in disbelief. "Miss Penny, what do you mean by that?"

"Don't you want your brother and lover to get along?" one of them asked. Penny shook her head. "That's not it. I do want them to get along."

"Then why-?"

"Because that's my first brother, alright?" she explained, noticing their even more confused expressions. She sighed and cleared her throat. "Here's the thing: I'm the only daughter of the Bennet family. So, my father and brothers are overly protective of me."
