Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 1449

Chapter 1449: Make sure to survive the day

The Next Day...

"Uncle Haines!"

Penny jolted upright from her slumber, gasping in shock. "Oh, my god!"

She covered her gaping mouth with her hand, eyes wide in horror. Last night had already felt like a nightmare. After finally giving in to the chaos and helping Zoren, the man had taken forever to reach his first orgasm. She swore she had almost cried from how long he took.

Worse—he still hadn’t gone down even after that.

She had no idea how she had fallen asleep. Maybe she had passed out in the middle of it all, or right after their umpteenth round. Who knew? And, honestly, who cared?

But now, she was waking up with one terrifying realization:

"I forgot about Uncle Haines last night," she whispered in horror.

A low grunt came from beside her.

"I’m dead," she declared dramatically.

Zoren ruffled his hair, propping himself up on one elbow as he cracked open a sleepy eye. "You want more?"

SLAP!

"Renren!" Penny shrieked, slapping his shoulder. "Uncle Haines ate that soup too!"

Zoren blinked at her, rubbing the spot she had hit. After a beat, he scratched his head and muttered, "Grandma’s to blame. Just pin it on her."

"Do you think anyone would believe that?!" Penny gasped. "If anything, they’d just think I was blaming a vulnerable old woman!"

Zoren tilted his head, picturing his grandmother right now—probably cackling with delight, thinking she had done everyone a favor.

And, well... he was right. Back at the Pierson estate, Old Mrs. Pierson’s hearty laughter filled the air.

Penny was right, though. The moment she tried to shift the blame onto the old lady, everyone would just assume she had hit rock bottom.

"Penny..." Zoren sighed as he reached for her hand. "You need a better PR team."

Her eyes welled up at that.

’He’s not even trying to defend me...’ she thought bitterly.

But then—

"Wait a minute." Her unshed tears paused as she narrowed her eyes at him. "I didn’t do it. You were the one who fed them the soup."

Zoren nodded. "I did," he admitted, "but my reputation is spotless, so..."

"They’re still going to blame me," Penny finished for him.

Zoren nodded again. "Should I book us a flight and come back when things have cooled down?" he offered.

"Tempting," Penny admitted, wincing. "But the preliminaries are over, and I need to be here for the semifinals and finals."

That damn competition!

Why did this have to happen during such an important event?!

Penny dramatically clutched her head. She could already picture how her day was going to unfold, and it was making her eyes sting with tears.

"Huhuhu!" she sobbed, covering her mouth to muffle her cries. "I’m innocent."

"I know," Zoren sighed, moving closer to console her. "My poor wife. How can I help?"

Penny’s tear-filled eyes snapped to him. "Renren, can you say that without your dragon poking at me?" _{freeωebnovēl.c૦m}

Zoren grinned. "I can’t help it. It won’t go down."

"Huhuhu!" Her cries grew louder as Zoren chuckled, pulling her into a tight hug.
