Chapter 528: Stay out of her life, and I'll stay out of hers.

Dean's expression slowly turned blank at the brief look he caught in Slater's eyes. The last remarks Slater had spewed-those taunting words spoken with such innocence were something Dean quickly picked up on.

Slater was mocking him. He was taunting him.

"Hehe. Of course, they're nice!" Old Mrs. Pierson chuckled as she glanced at Slater, who quickly beamed at her.

"Thanks, Grandma! Time to dig in!" Slater declared happily, showing no trace of the look he'd given Dean moments ago.

All Dean could do was laugh to himself. 'I guess the third brother isn't as foolish as she describes him,' he thought, lifting his sharp eyes to Slater again. 'He actually knows how to taunt people.'

It was very unlike the image Slater had in public.

Even as someone with a position in the Pierson Corporation, Dean knew about Slater. Penny rarely talked about her family to him or anyone else; she would mention them in passing but never delve deeply. Regardless, Slater was probably the only Bennet who was easily recognizable to everyone.

Slater was the Nation's Prince-the Nation's Singing Angel. He was the Nation's Everything. Although he started as an artist—a singer-his popularity skyrocketed due to his looks and talent. He quickly earned countless offers from all sorts of brands. At one point, one of the Pierson Corporation's subsidiaries even wanted him to be the face of their project.
