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

Chapter 1002: There was so much to see

"What's up with him?"

Penny scrunched up her nose, rubbing it mildly as it felt a little itchy. "Why does it smell like..." she trailed off, assuming the smell was similar to the one from the hospital. The thought of the hospital immediately sent a wave of alarm through her brain as she thought of her patient.

Zoren!

"Renre―" she abruptly stopped the second she turned, only to see Zoren looking in her direction. "Renren!"

Penny quickly jumped up from the floor as if she had forgotten the stiffness in her neck and shoulders. She slid beside him, her eyes shaky as she scanned his face. Her eyes shimmered with relief as her lips curved into a satisfied smile, pleased that his complexion was better than yesterday.

"Goodness..." she breathed out, teary-eyed. "Thank God. Oh, my god."

Succumbing to her heart's desire, Penny threw herself into his embrace. She bit her lips, torn between crying and laughing.

"I'm so glad you're back," she whimpered under her breath. "You scared me."

Zoren raised his brows a little, his eyes slowly gazing down at her body. He could not only feel her trembling, but he could see it clearly. Slowly, he wrapped his arm around her and patted her back.

"I'm sorry for worrying you," he whispered, his eyes softening as she drew her head back to look at him. Even though her face was covered in scribbles and her nose was black, the look in her eyes filled him with nothing but warmth.

'Is this how you've been looking at me all this time?' he wondered to himself, his breathing slowing. Zoren slowly raised a hand, caressing her soft cheek with his fingertips. He wiped the tears lingering in the corner of her eyes with the back of his index.

"I'm sorry for making you cry," he whispered, brushing her cheek with his thumb. Touching Penny's face wasn't the first time, nor the second or tenth time. In fact, he did it as many times as he could, in case he would lose his sight completely. She even described her face in full detail at one point, but now, he realized just how much he lacked imagination. freewebnovel.com

He realized that it wasn't just how she looked that he wanted to see. He wanted to see her eyes, how they shimmered with different emotions. He wanted to see her smile and laugh — perhaps even the expression she would make when she was beneath him.

There was so much to see, and he didn't realize it until now.

Zoren smiled subtly, his heart full. 'I hope our quadruplets get your eyes,' was what he wanted to say as his mouth opened. But before those words could leave his lips, Atlas's cold and flat voice shattered the heartwarming atmosphere between the couple.
