Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 1537

Chapter 1537: Who to gossip with?!

[Prime Group]

Patricia flinched when the office door flew open from the inside.

"Patricia." Holding the door open, Penny looked at her in disbelief. "Can you tell me which part of ’I don’t want visitors today’ you didn’t understand?"

Patricia sighed, having seen this coming a mile away. "Penny, I swear to God, I did my best to block them. But your First Brother looked at me like he was burning my soul, and your Second Brother flexed his muscles — it was disgusting."

"And they said it was important — like someone’s dying kind of emergency," she added in a knowing tone. "Please don’t be mad anymore."

Just as those words left Patricia’s mouth, three lunch boxes landed on the reception desk. "I brought you these."

"You think you can keep bribing me?" Penny scoffed, eyeing the lunch boxes before arching a brow. "What are those, anyway?"

"They’re homemade. My mom told me to bring them to you."

"And you’re just giving them to me now?"

"Hehe." Patricia chuckled awkwardly. "My Spidey senses told me to wait for the perfect time."

"Tch." Penny clicked her tongue. "You can’t bribe me this time."

But as she turned and closed the door, she muttered, "Heat them and send them to me."

Click.

Patricia’s face lit up, and she giggled, mentally thanking her mother for making those homemade dishes that morning. Fortunately, Mrs. Miller knew how to curry favor with people in power — it was how she’d survived in this vicious world.

Meanwhile, Mark shook his head in disbelief. Though he wasn’t sure what stunned him more — Penny’s lack of pride when it came to food or Patricia’s sheer luck.

But the longer I stay here, the more I think she actually suits that position.

Inside the CEO’s Office

Penny shut the door behind her. Sitting inside were the exact reasons she’d been scolding Patricia — her First and Second Brothers.

Atlas wore his usual indifferent expression while lounging on the couch. Hugo, in contrast, was grinning.

"I kinda like her," Hugo nodded approvingly. "Free food!"

Penny crossed her arms under her chest, tapping her foot irritably. "So, you’re telling me Second Brother is staying in my penthouse for the time being, huh?"

"I don’t think I said anything else," Atlas replied monotonously. "Since we’re keeping his hospitalization a secret from our parents, he can’t go home yet."

"My God..."

"Penny, it’s fine if you don’t want to!" Hugo clicked his tongue and flopped back on the couch. "I already told him I’d just live with you guys. Zoren said Go for it."

"You can’t live with them because everyone in the mansion hates you right now," Atlas replied in the same flat tone. "And Renny still hates you too."

"First Brother, how would you even know that?" Penny and Hugo asked in unison.
