Chapter 955: He promised he wouldn't bite.

"Wai — wait—!" Theo panicked and mindlessly grabbed Benjamin's arm. The latter stopped and looked back at him, his brows furrowed as he glanced at his arm and then up to the pair of eyes mirroring his.

"Mister-Mister Vitt, you said Miss Penelope is waiting for us," said Theo, his voice tinged with panic and confusion, watching Benjamin nod. "Then, why are we -ah, ahem!-why are we heading to the CEO's office?"

Even Mister Miller, who was standing with them, could feel his son's panic. Weren't they here to meet Penny? How come Benjamin was leading them to the CEO's office? Was this a trap? Considering the shame Patricia had put upon their family with the rumors about an unfounded relationship with Zoren Pierson, both men felt alarmed.

What was Penny thinking?

What was she planning?

As Theo and his father's thoughts grew more negative by the second, Benjamin flashed them a polite smile.

"Do not worry," he said. "Miss Penny only asked you to meet her here because she was already here when you called. She didn't want to travel far since she has other matters to attend to and won't be in her office until later in the afternoon."

Benjamin casually pulled his arm from Theo's grip. "She already mentioned that you'd be coming, so there's no need to worry. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come down to welcome such distinguished guests."

Theo and his father were rendered speechless, staring at Benjamin with wide eyes. Their mouths fell slightly open, unable to articulate their thoughts at the moment.

Penny simply asked them to meet her there because she was already there and didn't have time to go back to her office?
