Chapter 668: Jealousy

[Old Pierson Residence]

Old Mrs. Pierson laughed out loud, ruffling his hair. "Oh, you. You really know how to flatter Grandma."

Slater had been visiting Old Mrs. Pierson more frequently than any other members of the Pierson family. Back then, Zoren would drop by her home every day without fail. Although Zoren still visited the old residence, Old Mrs. Pierson kept chasing him away so Penny wouldn't have to wait for him.
