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

Chapter 651: Did she make the right call?

Chapter 651: Did she make the right call?

Was this meeting a blessing in disguise? Or were the stars just aligning? Was this meant to happen? For Penny and Finn to be in the same place?

Not long ago, Penny had been stressing about Finn, Jonathan Pierson, and many others.

Questions like: Where in the world did Finn come from? What was his agenda? Did he know about Penny? These questions had been filling her mind until her head was spinning.

But today, he answered quite a few of them.

Everything he said could be a lie, but there was no harm in considering everything he had confessed. So long as she was careful, she wouldn't disregard everything just because she couldn't trust him.

Now, he mentioned that person: Jonathan Pierson.

Penny drew a deep breath, trying to maintain her composure because right now, she was tempted to ask one question: 'Where is Jonathan Pierson?'

"Ohh..." Finn chuckled, noticing how her expression darkened. "You know him?"

"No, I don't know him." Penny shook her head before she carefully added a hint, "There's no Jonathan Pierson in the Pierson family registry, Mr. Davis. How would I know him?"

"There isn't." Finn cast his eyes down. "But there used to be."

A shift in mood settled in the private dining room before Finn lifted his gaze to her. "You asked me why I want to be your ally. That's one of the answers."

"Hmm?"
