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

Chapter 905: See? He's fine.

The Piersons always kept their eyes on the head of the family; some did so to look up to Zoren, while others, to know in advance if they needed to make a run for it. One thing Dean and Jonathan knew about Zoren was that he could sometimes be very unpredictable.

However, Jonathan's meaning of that was entirely different from Dean's, because what Jonathan meant by Zoren being unpredictable was when the latter interfered with Penelope Bennet's case in their previous life. Zoren's interest in it was unexpected; his meddling was something no one had ever predicted.

"What did you say?" Seated in one of the corner offices of Pierson Corporations, Jonathan turned his swivel chair to face the person across from his desk.

The latter had his head low. "I'm sorry, sir. It took us some time to notice that someone was already looking into this case."

SLAM!

The veins in Jonathan's forehead protruded as his eyes sharpened. "You took time?—They had uncovered things that were supposed to be buried!" He slammed his fist on the desk again, grinding his teeth angrily.

Despite that, the other man could only keep his head low. What was he supposed to say now? Jonathan was clearly upset, and no one could blame him.

Jonathan breathed out, looking away as he tried to think of something else. "Who?" he asked, slowly looking back at the man. "Who is giving Atlas Bennet tips about his sister's case?"

"..." The man didn't answer immediately, knowing the answer wouldn't fix the situation. However, he had no choice, as Jonathan was drilling a hole in his head with his gaze. "It's your uncle, sir. It's Zoren Pierson."

"..." The look on Jonathan's face stiffened as, for a moment, his entire world stopped. "Who?"
