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

Chapter 1260: Mint was right

[Prime Group]

"What is it, Second Brother?"

As soon as Penny opened the door to her office, she stopped and looked around. "Where is he?"

A frown formed on her face as she stepped back, glancing around for anyone she could ask about Hugo's whereabouts. He had told her to meet him here, yet he was nowhere to be found. Seeing that most of the employees on the floor had already gone home, Penny pulled out her phone to call him.

"Second Brother, where are you?" she asked. "I'm already here."

She listened to the other end of the line before her frown deepened. Slowly, she gazed upward.

It was no secret that Penny had a private suite on top of the Prime Group building. Her initial plan had been to live there so she wouldn't have to stay at her parents' home. However, due to her "accidental" marriage, plans had drastically changed. In the end, she never moved into the room she had prepared for herself, just above her office.

Standing in front of what was originally meant to be her home, Penny shrugged and stepped inside. Her eyes immediately scanned the space in search of Hugo. The first thing she noticed was a box of pizza on the coffee table in the living room, while Hugo was lounging lazily on the long couch.

A deep breath escaped Penny as she approached him. "For a moment, I thought something had happened to you since you weren't in the office," she said, crossing her arms as she looked down at her brother. "So? What is this about?"

"Wait." Hugo lifted a finger to his lips, his eyes closing as if in deep thought. "I'm thinking."

Penny pressed her lips together, one brow arching in curiosity. She remained silent for a moment but eventually lost her patience.

"Second Brother, you've been 'thinking' for a full minute. I'm afraid you'll suffer a brain hemorrhage."

"I think I've been having one since yesterday," he muttered before slowly opening his eyes. "Max is in love with me."

"Huh?" Her expression twisted in confusion. "Second Brother, I don't know what
