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

Chapter 927: Anywhere is fine

A part of Benjamin had always thought that his boss, Zoren, had this strange jealousy toward him—if that was even the right word. Initially, he thought Zoren was sending him away because he didn't want Benjamin to know about his relationship with Penny. But even after Benjamin learned about his boss and Penny's relationship, something still felt off. freewebnovel.com

Zoren kept sending Benjamin away, especially when Penny came to the office. Even on regular occasions when Zoren would come home, Benjamin noticed the shift. Before Penny, Benjamin would always drop Zoren off, but now, Zoren would send him elsewhere.

"You... like... who?"

"Uh..." Benjamin opened and closed his mouth, feeling a strange sense of dread creeping up his spine. His eyes shook, studying the shadow cast across Zoren's face.

This didn't feel good.

"Miss Penny," he muttered under his breath, eyes fixed on Zoren. "Would I die if I jumped out of the window?"

Penny furrowed her brows and tilted her head, looking at Benjamin with surprise. "Is that a question? You wouldn't just die, but many of your bones would shatter."

"Then how come you weren't scared of falling just now?" he gasped, turning to her in disbelief.

"This bodysuit is soft and comfortable. I thought that even if I fell, I'd get hurt but wouldn't die."

"What are you two doing...?" This time, Zoren's voice sounded closer. When the two looked back at him, he was already a few meters away. "... on the floor? While one of you is confessing her feelings?"

"Haha! Sir! Boss! Master!" Benjamin, who thought he wouldn't be able to get up again, jumped to his feet. He rubbed his hands and stood next to Zoren, a creepy, awkward smile forming on his face. "What are you saying? I just had to help Miss Penny because she was hiding from Second Brother. She hid in that window! See! It's still open! So when I pulled her in, we both rolled on the floor!"

Benjamin assessed the look Zoren was giving him, and it made him gulp nervously. "Sir! I swear it's not what you think it is!" he shouted, surrendering to his fate as he slumped to his knees, his hands pressed together over his head. "I swear it's not what it seems!"

"I know." Zoren tilted his head to the side, watching Benjamin slowly look up at him. "My wife wouldn't do that to me... at least, not with you."
