Chapter 471: Third Brother, did you say your morning prayers today?

Last night, when Penny hung up on Zoren, she was too flustered by her wild imagination. Who wouldn't be? That guy's eyes might not have been working properly, but she could've sworn his gaze was undressing her piece by piece! Feeling embarrassed, she ended the call.

Penny couldn't even finish her skincare routine after that conversation. She threw herself onto the bed, rolling from one corner to another. Only when she finally exhausted herself enough to quiet her racing thoughts did she lie still, a smile on her face.

At the end of the day, she'd had a great one!

With that thought in mind, she decided to sleep early so she could start the next day fresh. Penny fell asleep, only to wake up in the middle of the night for a glass of water. Unfortunately, her glass was empty, forcing her to make a quick trip downstairs.

That's when she got reeled into today's trap.

Penny turned lifelessly to the man beside her in the celebrity van. "Third Brother, I need to go to work," she mumbled. "I have a company to run."

"I know, that's why I called Uncle Haines."

"Huh?"

Slater smirked proudly. "You promised me last night that you'd help me if you didn't have work. So I asked Uncle Haines and Dad to help out today! They're already there — don't worry."

"..." Penny stared at him, her expression dead. 'Why did I even pity him?'

Last night, when Penny had gone downstairs to get a glass of water, she found Slater sulking in the living room. Penny, in her good mood, decided to console him. From what she remembered, Slater had a lot of issues to sulk over.

Had she just ignored him, she could've been back in her room within ten minutes. But she'd let her good mood get the better of her. An hour later, her glass was still empty, her mind was sizzling from listening to her brother's woes, and she was exhausted.
