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

Chapter 1115: Better cook = better partner

If not for Zoren, Penny wouldn't have insisted on looking at the family portrait. It would have intrigued her for sure, and she might have found herself sneaking back into the old study to get a better look. But since Zoren offered, she accepted his invitation to check out his father's works.

Initially, she had only planned to look around once, a quick glance. But alas, she couldn't help feeling drawn to that unfinished work on the easel. One of the painting's eyes, lips, and part of her cheek were incomplete. Some details were still just sketches. But somehow, Penny couldn't look away.

Aside from the fact that Enzo Pierson was actually a talented realist painter, there was something about the piece that made her stare longer than she intended.

'Is it the eye?' she wondered, narrowing her eyes as she walked closer to the unfinished work. 'Or is it because my late father-in-law was such a great painter that this piece feels so... embellished?'

Out of pure curiosity, Penny pulled out the family picture she had hidden behind the book. Zoren hadn't given her time to put it away when he dragged her into the workshop. Penny turned slightly so Zoren couldn't see what she was doing, checking the woman in the family photo before glancing back at the painting.

'They do look alike, though,' she thought to herself, unable to deny it. The woman in the family picture and the one in the painting were clearly the same person.

Even so, why did Penny feel this inexplicable sensation that she couldn't quite put into words?

It felt like... something was off.

The feeling was faint but hard to shake.

Once again, Penny gazed at the painting, rubbing her chin in thought. 'What is it?' she wondered. 'Why do I feel... uncomfortable the longer I look at her?' "Young Master."

Penny's thoughts trailed off as Butler Lee's voice interrupted. She turned to the entrance, and Zoren did the same.

Butler Lee glanced at the workshop before facing Zoren with a smile. "Your guests have arrived at the castle, Young Master."
