Chapter 796: Untouchable

"As for me, I'm joining my new family for my first family dinner as a Pierson. It's a little late, but hi?"

A sweet smile spread across Penny's face as she popped the grape into her mouth, leaving everyone unsure whether she was savoring the taste of the fruit or their reactions.

"What did you say?" Karina, William's daughter, blurted out, her disbelief plain. Her eyes darted between Penny and Zoren, who was casually looking up at Penny with a smile.

"This grape is good," Penny remarked to Zoren, who nodded at her. "We should take some home later."

"Sure." Zoren nodded again before tilting his head, looking at William over

Penny's torso. "You were saying?"

William's face went blank. "Huh?"

"You mentioned earlier that you wanted a word with her husband," Zoren reminded him. "What was it you wanted to discuss with me..."
