Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 1117

Chapter 1117: Let it be like that

"Mr. Pierson, are you... just like us? And by that, I mean... did you also go back in time with your memories?"

Zoren’s brows immediately crinkled at Finn’s question. "What makes you ask that?"

"Like I said, I don’t trust you," Finn repeated, his voice clearer this time. "We don’t trust each other, but my life is on the line. Nina’s and mine, and I’m not letting Penelope fail."

A moment of silence fell between them as both men stared at each other. Zoren and Finn might’ve been on the same side for a long time, but that didn’t mean they trusted each other. Their relationship was based purely on mutual benefits — nothing more.

But things had changed, and Finn was no longer fighting whatever fate had in store for him alone. He had an ally, and her name was Penelope Bennet. His only goal now was to ensure she succeeded, because if she did, his chances of avoiding or surviving the catastrophe that had befallen him in his first life were high.

"Would my answer change anything?" Zoren replied instead of answering, because the truth was already too obvious.

Zoren had no memory of the past Penny and Finn were talking about. Although he believed them, he couldn’t bring himself to remember a life he couldn’t recall.

"Yes," Finn nodded. "It changes a lot of things, Mr. Pierson."

"And why is that?"

"I’m certain Penelope already mentioned our last conversation to you."

"She has." Zoren nodded. "She fell sick because of that."

Finn’s jaw tightened. "I’m sorry about that."

"You don’t have to. Penny needed the truth, and you gave her what she needed at the moment. Although she and I didn’t expect the truth to be that painful, we needed it." Zoren drew a deep breath as his eyes grew sharper. "Mr. Davis, your question... you already know the answer. No, I don’t remember anything. Would that still change anything?"

"Yes." _{ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com}

"And why is that?"

"Because in that first life..." Finn trailed off, drawing another deep breath, holding Zoren’s sharp gaze. "That woman is alive."

Zoren furrowed his brows again. "That woman?" he repeated.

"Yes," Finn breathed out and nodded at him. "That woman, Mr. Pierson. And the reason I asked if you could remember your first life is because I want to know if you did something to change it."
