Chapter 1731: Red string theory

"Miss Penny, why don’t you stay inside?" Butler Hubert came out of the residence, where Penny was seated on the hood of her car. "I’ve prepared tea for you as well."

Penny beamed at him. "It’s alright, Butler Hubert. I don’t want to get scolded by Grandma as well."

"I think the Old Madam’s fury has been quenched," he reassured. "I just delivered tea to them, and she’s calmer now."

"It’s alright." Penny smacked her lips and gazed at the entrance of the residence. "I don’t want to meddle with something so important for my husband."

Butler Hubert’s brows rose, tilting his head a bit. He studied the smile on Penny’s face, unsure of what she was talking about. All he knew was that Old Mrs. Pierson had asked him to retrieve some old documents, after all.

He then followed where Penny was looking, catching Zoren stepping out of the residence. Butler Hubert smiled, noticing a book in Zoren’s hand, until Zoren joined them.

"Young Master, you’re leaving now?"

Zoren turned to him and nodded. "Thank you for taking great care of Grandma, Butler Hubert."

"You do not need to thank me, Young Master. I’m simply doing my job."

"She’s calmed down a bit, but I think she’ll still need a pair of ears to listen to her vent," Zoren returned kindly. "I’m sorry for troubling you, but I’d appreciate it if you stayed with her for a bit."

Butler Hubert chuckled. "Very well." He paused and then gave Penny a look. "Please take care on your way. I’ll be going in now."

"Thanks, Butler Hu!" Penny waved at him, watching the butler leave.

Once Butler Hubert was walking back inside the residence, she snapped her eyes back to Zoren. She studied his face and aura before the corners of her mouth hooked up.
