Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 1377

Chapter 1377: Damn, this is easy.

[Skyline Plaza: The Old Pierson Residence]

Penny sat on the edge of the bed, pausing as Zoren’s voice came from behind her.

"Where are you headed?" he asked, half asleep. "Penny?"

She glanced back at him and slid over. "Home," she said, poking his nose lightly. "Renren, I just need to pick up something. Maybe I’ll go for a morning run too."

"It’s morning already?" He frowned. "Wait for me. I’ll go with you."

"Nope." Penny shook her head, making him pout. "Renren, I’ll be back for breakfast. Besides, I can’t focus when you’re around. So, you stay."

Zoren clicked his tongue softly, pulling her into his arms. "Just stay here," he murmured, his voice husky. "Don’t go."

"I’ll be back~" she cooed, giggling in his embrace. "Promise."

"Before I wake up?" he asked, making Penny pause for a second.

"Sure." She grinned. "You won’t even notice I was gone."

Zoren sighed heavily but reluctantly let her go. Staying at the old residence had become part of their routine, especially since Penny had to monitor Old Mrs. Pierson regularly. Still, he knew she had sent Mark on an errand tonight, and she’d been waiting for the results. She was even quite excited about it.

"Come back," he said one last time, watching her crawl away from him. "Or I’ll come get you."

"Of course," Penny chuckled, nodding as she sat on the edge of the bed again. "Sleep some more, my honey-bunch sugar plum."

"Mhm." Zoren closed his eyes, but then opened them again as he watched her head to the closet to change. He sighed to himself. ’I should earn her trust again.’

He blamed himself for the times Penny chose to leave him behind. It was his fault... or maybe just Penny’s irresistible appeal. He prided himself on having self-control in many things, but when it came to her, it was nearly nonexistent. If he could stay inside her 24/7, he would.

Could anyone blame him? His wife was just too... delectable.

Just thinking about it, especially last night... oh, such great memories to take in the afterlife.

Little did he know, Penny’s reasons for leaving him behind were entirely different. Whenever Zoren was around, she was too distracted thinking of ways to seduce him. Nothing else seemed important. So when she needed focus, she had to make sure he wasn’t around—otherwise, her eyes would keep drifting back to him.

With that, Penny jumped onto the bed and kissed him. "See you later," she said, planting another quick kiss on his lips before slipping away.

Zoren reached out but stopped himself from pulling her back. Instead, he watched her walk out the door. When it clicked shut behind her, another deep sigh escaped him as he stared at the ceiling.

"I shouldn’t have watched her change," he muttered, feeling the tension in his lower body. "I’m hard."

[Move my schedule. I’ll be late today. Also, let someone in the Prime Group know Penny will be late as well.]
