Chapter 1445: You're on your own

Meanwhile, just outside the gates of Zoren's home, Finn and Nina pulled over.

"Hmm?" Nina hummed, lowering her window as she gazed through the gates. "It looks like there's a party."

Finn, in the driver's seat, leaned forward to look. From the gates, a long driveway led to the residence, but even from this distance, the lights and the figures near the entrance made it seem lively.

"This place is always lively," Finn muttered with a nod. "Even if it's not a party, considering Penny lives here, there's always something happening.

Nina chuckled, looking back at him. "Penny is fun."

"I don't doubt it," he smiled back. "And seeing that there were cars parked in the driveway, it seems your brothers are also there too."

Just then, one of the guards stationed by the gate approached Nina's side of the car. Seeing who was inside, he quickly lowered his head.

"Miss Nina!" The guard greeted Nina, familiar with Nina as she had stayed for a short while in the residence. Besides, Nina was so pretty that anyone could remember her easily. "It's good to see you here again."

"Hello, good evening." Nina smiled, raising the wrapped food containers she was holding. "Could you hand this to Penny? Finn and I prepared something. It's nothing much, but we hope she and Zoren will enjoy it. We even added extra so they can share with everyone."

"Miss Nina, you're truly an angel!" The guard laughed as he accepted the trays. "I'll let the Young Madam know you stopped by. Aren't you coming in?"

Nina shook her head. "We just came to drop these off. After all, they gave us a lovely cake to enjoy." And, truthfully, Penny and Zoren's unexpected visit the night before had helped them deal with their own situation.

"I see, I see. I'll give this to Miss Penny right away."

"Thank you." Nina glanced briefly at the gates before asking, "By the way, is Penny throwing a party? It seems like everyone's having fun, even at this hour."
