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

Chapter 643: A family visitor

Meanwhile, in the Bennet Mansion...

"Haha..." Penny chuckled as the family gathered in the dining area for dinner. Allison prepared a feast for everyone, especially focusing on Zoren's palate since it was his first night staying over. She wanted him to feel welcome.

Thankfully, everyone was cooperating except for Slater, of course. But that was the least of everyone's worries, as the mood in the dining room was light and warm. Everyone was smiling and laughing, discussing any light topic.

Allison smirked, casting Zoren a knowing look. "It's not Jessa. She was busy looking after Nina."

Zoren smiled at his third brother and casually said, "I bribed him."
