Chapter 530: To the only woman in my life

In Penny's first life, the Bennets-especially her brothers-had always been her constant source of stress and anxiety. In this life, however, they had become a source of happiness. They were the people who often cheered her up, and although they weren't perfect, their imperfections made their relationships feel complete.

According to Zoren, Hugo didn't plan to stay for a long time. To be fair, Hugo hadn't even planned on staying at his house in the first place; it was Zoren's invitation that led to this arrangement. Initially, it worried her, but seeing that Zoren wanted Hugo to stay made her heart melt.

She said Zoren had found Hugo's soft spots, but it was actually her soft spot he had found.

With that, she went to work. Fortunately, Zoren and Hugo didn't insist on driving her. The three of them parted ways outside the gates, with Penny heading to her office while Zoren went to his-Hugo tagged along because the Second Brother had nothing else to do.

Thinking about it, Penny chuckled as she made her way to her office. Her laughter stopped abruptly when she entered her office and spotted a bouquet on the table. She squinted her eyes.

"I'm guessing whoever sent these really wants to ruin my day again," she muttered as she approached the table and picked up one of the bouquets.

[I'm sorry.

-Dean Pierson]

Penny scoffed at the note, glaring at the flower before shaking her head. Without even putting her handbag down, she marched to the trash bin and tossed it in.

"I should send him a trashcan so he could throw himself in it," she hissed, walking back to get the other bouquet. She quickly carried it to the trashcan, not interested in reading the note. However, before she could throw it away, she paused.

"He already sent me one," she muttered. "This could be from someone else."

Although she had no idea who else would send her flowers, Penny still checked the card, just to be sure. It read:
