Chapter 634: First Brother accident

Zoren's only reason for requesting that Penny and he stay in the Bennet Mansion for the time being was that he knew her family would want to take care of her. He could have offered for them to stay at his home, but he thought his in-laws might not feel comfortable moving around his place. Besides, he didn't mind living in the place where his wife would return after their Thursday meetings. Thus, the arrangement was something that everyone was happy to hear about.

Penny was initially pleased with it, as she had been wanting to come home and relax a little. After all that ordeal with her other self, she felt she deserved a vacation. She had stressed herself out. However, now that they were on the way home, she was feeling a bit skeptical.

The car Charles used was his old van-the same van that had taken the Bennet children to school. It fits all of them, but what made her skeptical was the silence.

Again, the silence-the same silence they had experienced during her family and Zoren's first meeting.

"Oh, my goodness..." Penny mumbled to herself, glancing around the van.

Her parents were inside with Haines in the front passenger seat. Charles and Atlas were seated in the first row. In the second row, Zoren was next to Penny, followed by Allison. Slater and Hugo were in the back. None of them had spoken a word since they left the hospital, making Penny wonder what was wrong.

Had she done anything else while she let her other self take charge of this body? Was there something Zoren and Penelope hadn't told her? Or something her family was keeping from her? As far as Penny knew, the drunk Penny would occasionally meet her family, but she reassured herself she wasn't doing anything shady.

Now that Penny thought about it, why would she trust herself?

Her thoughts trailed off when Allison suddenly chuckled. Leaning toward Penny, Allison giggled.

"This feels like taking you home after you've given birth," Allison quipped, but her voice felt like a bucket of cold water poured on them, not just on Penny, but on everyone. The only one who seemed happy about the thought was Zoren, who innocently smiled at his mother-in-law.
