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

Chapter 1712: Quadruplets

Three words. Just three. Yet, they were the words Penny and Zoren had agreed not to say for safety reasons. After all, those three words were the only thing that could overwhelm him. Even if people cursed him, he wouldn't even flinch.

Penny's eyes softened lovingly while the corners of her mouth curled up into a smile. "Would it be a death sentence to say them to you?"

"I don't think so," he shook his head, offering her a subtle smile. "But don't say them right now."

"Why?"

"Because I just want you to know my heart," he said, smiling as she reached out to caress his lean cheek. "And that will never change."

Penny nodded in understanding before she carefully retrieved her hand and strode off. As she walked out of the room to get him a glass of water, Zoren followed her figure.
