Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 1628

Chapter 1628: Are you... going to take care of her?

The story... was chaotic at best.

It was something Penny didn’t expect to hear. At least, not tonight.

To make things short, Patricia couldn’t sleep at night as she tossed and turned in her bed, still staring at the portrait on her phone. No matter how Patricia denied it, she was truly obsessing over it. However, just when Patricia decided not to dwell on it, she reached for her glass of water, only to realize she had already emptied it.

Having a habit of sleeping with a sip of water and waking up with a sip, Patricia went down to refill it.

But then, while she was in the kitchen, she caught the same maid walking out through the window. Curious, Patricia watched the maid and found her actions suspicious. Thus, she had the grand idea of following the maid.

Whatever got into her head to think that was a great idea, no one knew. Even Patricia didn’t know. She just acted like ninety-nine percent of her existence.

And as Patricia went out to follow the newly hired maid, Theo just hopped in Hayley’s car.

Apparently, Hayley had stayed over for dinner at the Miller residence. Throughout the dinner, the two of them had been stealing glances and making flirtatious innuendos. When Theo walked her out—because Patricia was being the reluctant cupid—they just agreed to meet tonight.

Obviously, there were other plans because Hayley decided to pick up Theo instead of him picking her up. As if she wanted him not to have a vehicle to go home, so he could probably stay over at her place, or they could spend the night somewhere else.

But instead of going on their date, they saw Patricia leaving in the dead of the night.

It confused and intrigued them. And before they knew it, instead of playing under the sheets and finding out if their attraction was more than just physical, they found themselves following Patricia and witnessing how Patricia and the maid clashed.

Since Patricia was not physically trained, throwing her to the ground was easy for someone who had trained to fight. So, Theo stepped into the alley where the chaos had turned, and he ended up getting beaten as well. Hayley just stood there in horror.

But before they all knew it, Patricia, who was tossed against the wall like a doll, reached out for anything. Like she said, she didn’t think twice or have second thoughts, considering her brother was being strangled to death with the maid’s arm around his neck, her body on his back.

The thing was, instead of leaving the maid, they ended up carrying her with them and locking her in the bathroom of Hayley’s home.

Hayley’s home.

The very place where they were right now.

Penny sat on the couch, eyeing the other three, who were all squeezed onto the other couch.

"So, you chose this place because... there were too many people at the Miller residence?" she asked. The three of them exchanged glances before nodding at her. "Wow."

This sounded like coincidence after coincidence after coincidence.

And to be honest? Penny was in awe.

"Is she dead?" Hayley asked because she didn’t dare check earlier. "Are we going to be in trouble?"

"She’s alive."

Suddenly, a voice came from behind them.

The three instinctively looked back, eyes landing on Angel. He was walking out of the bathroom, taking off his rubber gloves.

"She just lost consciousness—anyone would if they were hit like that," Angel stressed, his eyes landing on Patricia. This was surely a character development for her, but no one knew if that was a good thing or if she had become more corrupted.
