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

Chapter 574: Can you believe it?

There were many questions Zoren had for Penny, especially regarding what she had said moments ago. However, he set all of that aside and waited. According to Hugo, she would wake up almost instantly. After all, he had informed Hugo about Penny's plans for the night.

'Thirty-three minutes,' he thought. 'That's how long it took for her to wake up. I guess it's different. Was it based on what she drinks?'

Tonight, she had wine. The night Hugo tested her, they had vodka.

"Ugh..." Penny sat up groggily, scratching her head as she groaned. "Damn it. My body feels so sore..."

She trailed off, raising her brows as she looked around the bedroom. Penny tilted her head to the side, confused about where she had woken up. When she turned her head and her eyes landed on the person leaning against the door, her face brightened up.

"Hubby!" she jumped up on the bed, patting it excitedly. "What are you doing in there? Come!"

"..." Zoren couldn't study her face well, but he could sense the aura she was emitting. It was unlike the fear Penny had given off before she drank wine.

He smiled and peeled himself away from the door. "You're awake?"

"What do you mean, I'm awake?" Penny frowned, watching him sit on the edge of the bed. "I barely had a nap, you know?! Did I miss the entire movie?!" freewebnovel.com

Again, Zoren fell silent upon hearing her question. Last time, they had watched a movie together before she fell asleep.

'So, when she's drunk, she remembers, or rather, continues the events from where she fell asleep?' he wondered. 'How about that time she had a drink with Hugo?'

"I thought you'd sleep through the night," he said. "Didn't you like the bed? Was it too soft?"

Penny grinned. "Too soft?" She slapped the mattress. "It is too soft, but I like it. The beds in prison are terrible, you know?"

"Prison?"

"I didn't tell you?" Penny blinked. "I'm an ex-con."

"You were?"

Penny squinted at him. "Why? Scared now?"
