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

Chapter 1427: Just want to brag

Minutes ago...

"Those four..." Atlas trailed off as he sat down, noticing how Benjamin, Allen, and even Zoren's ears perked up. Pausing, he leaned back and casually snapped his eyes to Penny. "They don't look reliable."

Zoren nodded faintly, while Benjamin smirked. Allen, on the other hand, simply looked away, wanting no part in this. Although he was still bitter that Penny had already chosen her assistant, he knew that if he valued his life, he'd have to let it go.

Allen didn't even want to start on how his life had been hell since handing over that resignation letter to Atlas.

"First Brother, aren't you being a little judgmental?" Penny frowned as she paused from pulling something out of her desk drawer. "Those four were chosen carefully."

"Were they?" Atlas, not believing a word his sister said, turned his attention to Zoren.

Zoren didn't react, sensing that his wife was looking at him as well. "I trust my wife's judgment."

Atlas shrugged, reading Zoren's true message behind his words.

"Miss Penny surely hired some impressive people for the job!" Benjamin, standing just behind Zoren's seat, exclaimed. "Although there's not much to expect, I just hope they'll be able to do the job well."

"That's right." Penny nodded as she refocused her attention on the desk drawer, unaware of the face Benjamin was making.

Benjamin then cast Allen a look, making the latter raise his brows.

"What?" Allen mouthed, watching Benjamin tip his head. Realizing Benjamin wanted him to back him up, he quickly shook his head. "No, no!"

Allen still wanted to live!

"So, are they just going to work in administration?" Atlas asked out of curiosity. "And Patricia Miller... Penny, have you lost your mind?"
