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

Chapter 1752: Miss Penny is in danger—NOW!

"Sir Teddy, you’re back?" one of the guards greeted Teddy outside the building as soon as he saw him walking in. "Did you forget something?"

Teddy offered the security guard a nod. "Just need to finish some things."

"Hehe. So diligent. Good luck!"

"Mhm." Teddy casually returned the guard’s nod before walking into the entrance of Prime Group. He might not be the friendliest, but he had made quite a few acquaintances. After all, the guards at the company were quite friendly.

With that, Teddy headed straight to the lift to his department.

The office was almost empty, and he walked past a few employees who were only now leaving. He couldn’t blame them—today had been extra hectic for everyone in the company.

DING!

Teddy glanced at the floor number above the elevator before the door opened. On the other side, two female employees were about to walk in—until they saw him.

"Oh," one of the women offered an awkward smile. "Sorry."

He only answered with a nod and pressed the close button. After all, the ladies were heading down to leave, but he was going to the top floor. With that, Teddy turned his attention to the floor display and waited.

DING!

This time, he reached the CEO’s floor without stopping. As usual, he casually strolled back to their department—but just as he made the turn, he caught Penny walking out of her office.

"Mis—" Teddy’s voice caught in his throat when he saw Penny cast him a sharp side-eye, like she was furious.

Deep lines formed between his brows until he noticed the weapon pressed against her back.
