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

Chapter 1856: Zoren’s Beloved Wife.

One reason Penny hid from the public eye was not simply because she wanted to stay anonymous. It was because she didn’t like the spotlight. And by that, she meant she hated being surrounded by media people with their cameras pointed at her.

She didn’t have a good memory of such attention. The last time her face was broadcast for everyone to see was when she had to beg and cry for help.

Although over the years, she’d managed to handle some level of media attention and cameras on her, all those times had been under the condition of Penny being aware of it.

Deep lines appeared on Penny’s brows as she reached the main entrance of the building.

"What is going on..." As she approached the entrance, people from the media perked up.

Like zombies, they rushed toward the entrance, only to be stopped by the line of bodyguards outside the premises.

The moment Penny stepped outside, accompanied by her just-as-confused assistants, the commotion outside finally reached her ears.

"Miss Penelope, is it true that you and CEO Pierson are having an affair?"

"Aren’t you ashamed to be hooking up with a married man?!"

"Since when has this relationship been going on?!"

The reporters tried to push the bodyguards, their arms outstretched, mics thrusting toward Penny.

Penny paused for a second, scanning the crowd of reporters trying to get a word from her about the alleged affair with her husband. If not for the bodyguards set up outside, she would have easily been overwhelmed. But right now, all she could think about was how these reporters were getting out of hand.

Well, she didn’t know it yet, but now, everyone had proof.

Back then, it was simply speculation with "blurred" photos. But in reality, the photos taken were of low quality. Now, however, was a different story. The photo circulating on the internet was a clear shot of her and Zoren.

"Does your family know about this?"

"Have they spoken to you yet? What did Slater say about this behavior?"

"Miss Penny, aren’t you afraid this will affect your brother’s career?"

Penny pressed her lips into a thin line before hearing Mark’s voice beside her.
