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

Chapter 1004: Tell him to breathe...!

"What I'm trying to say is... forget uttering such deadly poisons."

Sometimes, the Bennets wondered if Atlas saw everything as a competition. Zoren was already intense, but Atlas just had to be more intense. The thing was, they knew Atlas wasn't trying to compete. His level of intensity was just unnecessarily leveling up.

"No way!" Penny gasped, squeezing herself to Zoren's side. "Why would I forget the very words that are not even close to expressing my feelings for my husband?"

Zoren's subtle smile stretched a little more, his lips pursing to stop himself from smiling like a fool. Atlas, on the other hand, narrowed his eyes at Zoren. Atlas had to admit that Zoren's gleeful reaction was disappointing him.

"There were other ways or phrases to express your feelings. Don't be lazy. Be creative," Atlas suggested nonchalantly. "If you don't believe me, then go ahead and kill your husband."

"Atlas, don't say such things!" Allison scolded. "Stop using such violent words, please!"

"Just how intense can you be?" Charles wondered, concerned about something else. Even though Atlas lectured these two, Penny would never listen to him. Moreover, after observing his daughter and Zoren over the past few months, he had to secretly admit that his daughter was a bad influence between Penny and Zoren.

That was a secret discovery he planned to take to his grave. In other words, even if Zoren honored Atlas's lectures, Penny would still influence him. His eldest son was just wasting his breath.

"I didn't know saying I love you could kill," Hugo muttered, his face relaxing as he felt at ease. He giggled and turned his attention to his father. "I love you, Dad- ack!"

"Hugo, telling your father you love him with such intention-Is this how I raised you?" Allison huffed, her palm throbbing after smacking her son's head. Who would have thought Hugo's head was so hard? She hadn't even put much effort into the smack, but it seemed like her son had trained whatever muscle or nerve that was surrounding his skull.

Hugo scratched his head, only to see Charles smirking at him.
