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

Chapter 673: Are you, really?

Meanwhile, in the Prime Group...

"He was where?" Penny arched a brow at Yugi as they both walked toward her office.

Yugi shrugged. "Went to see Nina, that's what they said." He rolled his eyes, frowning deeply at Penny. "Penny, why are you even sending people to watch and protect him? I don't understand. That guy broke our sister's heart. He doesn't need protection. If anything, I was expecting you to break his heart literally in four!"

"..." Penny pressed her lips together and didn't say anything, trying her best to ignore her cousin. If she were to respond, all she could probably say was, "I know, right?"

But even if she explained it to Yugi, he wouldn't understand. If anything, he would only ask more questions until she felt like ripping her hair out. Therefore, to save herself from the trouble, she remained quiet.

Finn was an anomaly; he could be a great ally and someone who could ruin her plans. Until she was sure she could trust him even a little, she would keep him at arm's length while making sure he stayed alive until she decided what to do.

"Penny, I smell something fishy," Yugi grumbled as they approached her office. "There's something you're not telling me, am I right? Are we keeping secrets from each other now?"

This time, Penny stopped in front of her office, her hand on the knob as she faced him. "Yugi, I'm fine. Nothing's fishy..." she trailed off, sniffing hard as she suddenly caught a whiff of smoke. "But I smell something burning."

"Step aside—" Yugi stepped in, pushing her to the side as he reached for the door. He could smell the smoke too, and it seemed to be coming from her office.

"Call for a firefighter, just in case..." he stopped as soon as he opened the door, waving a hand in front of his face as the smoke inside was thick. "What the—"
