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

Chapter 1070: That's the reason for sure

—

The Finn Davis everyone Penny included - knew was like a fox: cunning, manipulative, secretive. He would jump ship faster than the blink of an eye, his relationships rooted in mutual benefit, and he would break any relationship or partnership if he saw fit.

He was one of the most dangerous people to be associated with. He couldn't be trusted, yet people would still hold hands with him, just like they would hold hands with the devil.

That was the Finn Davis, Penny knew.

Who would have thought that a day would come when she would witness this side of him?

"Are you calm now?" she asked after a while, watching him drink the tea she made for him.

Finn huffed and nodded. "Yes, thank you. I'm sorry for bothering you with such a dilemma."

"I wanted to say, 'No worries, it's no big deal,' but I can't," she blurted, crossing

her arms under her chest. "At the same time, I also understand that I'd rather hear it than know that you're starting to confide in a complete stranger."

"Thank you."

"So? Correct me if I'm wrong. From what I understand, when you moved into her place a few days ago, everything was fine. But the next day, she just starts acting weird?"

"Yes."

"And by weird, you mean she's avoiding you?"

"Initially, I thought I was just overthinking and that she simply had a lot of work, that she had to go to the office earlier. However, just this morning, she woke up earlier than usual and left the house before five in the morning. I think she did so because she realized I woke up earlier than her." Finn sighed again. "What confused me, though, is that despite all that, she prepared me breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner."

Finn snapped his eyes up at her again. "You're her sister, so you must know."

Penny furrowed her brows, rubbing her chin as she tried to solve this problem. "Nina is a sensible person. She does everything for a reason. I mean, she let
