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

Chapter 1319: Penny's office

[PRIME GROUP]

At one point in Penny's life, she often found herself acknowledging that her office would never be as pristine as Zoren's or Atlas's.

How could it be when she had people grilling food inside? All while a friend was dramatically bawling her eyes out.

"Huhu! Penny! What am I going to do?! That idiot-he ruins everything!" Lily sobbed, unbothered by the thick smoke fogging up Penny's office as she manually fanned the smoke detector. "It's so frustrating I can't stop crying!"

Penny ignored Lily, standing by the window as she tried to breathe in some fresh air and not suffocate. She crossed her arms, looking down at the bustling city center.

"Young lady, you should fan that thing even harder," Wild, the culprit behind all the smoke, instructed Lily, who stood near the door. "Otherwise, we're all going to get a smoke bath in here."

Lily cried even harder but still followed Wild's instructions.

"If my office is not a tourist attraction... then is it a park?" Penny wondered to herself. "A psychiatric ward?"

She had a medical license, but she was sure it wasn't meant for this. The number of problems that had landed in her office-most of which had nothing to do with her company-was overwhelming. She had stopped counting after Patricia. There were just too many. And when she thought nothing else could surprise her, Lily came bawling her eyes out.

Lily's problem?
