Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 192

Chapter 192: First Thursday

The next Thursday rolled in...

[Somewhere in the world...]

Renren rested his body on the reclining hospital bed. His other hand rested on his stomach, revealing the IV injected into the back of his hand. His eyes remained on the book he was reading — this time, it was a book of study about rodents.

"Renren, how are you in there?" Ray’s voice was heard in the room, but when Renren turned, his eyes landed on the laptop on the bedside table. "Did you miss me already?"

"No."

Ray frowned. "Why is that?"

"Because I didn’t."

Ray’s frown deepened, looking at his cousin with indignation. Even though Renren was thousands of miles away, he was still able to hurt Ray’s feelings.

"Heartless!" Ray expressed in dismay. "Why call me now if you don’t miss me?"

"Thursdays. It’s Thursday in there."

"Thursdays?" Ray scrunched up his nose. "Renren, didn’t you say you already bid farewell to Thursday Geezer?"

Renren raised a brow. "I want to make it a tradition. I might not be physically there, but my heart still wants to go."

"You mean since you can’t physically come on Thursday, you want to at least torment me just like what you do every Thursday?"

Renren nodded.

"Huhuhu!" Ray wept and buried his face in his palms. "Why? What did I do to you?!"

Renren smiled and watched Ray dramatically lament from the screen. Since Ray would be lamenting for a good five minutes, Renren looked away. He shifted his eyes to the window with a bit of a smile.

’I called him because I feel sad,’ he thought. ’And I want to change my mind.’

This was the first Thursday Renren and Penny wouldn’t meet. Thinking how many more Thursdays they would miss, Renren felt a little depressed about it. It was probably for that reason he had been more sick the moment he left the country.

"Ray," he called, putting a stop to Ray’s continuous drama. "Hung up now."

Ray’s twisted face squeezed even more. "Cousin, you better get better and get strong! Once you do, I’ll introduce you to my coach so he can train you how to fight! When you’re healthy and can fight, I’ll beat you!"

Renren looked back at the laptop and chuckled helplessly, watching Ray end the call with a heavy heart.

"I wanted to tell him to check if she even came to our meeting place, but never mind," he told himself, setting his eyes back on the window. "He might pursue her, considering he’s bordering on being a pervert pursuing a young girl."

*******

[Bennet Mansion]

"I’ll be back, Butler Jen~"

Butler Jen’s mouth parted, but he could only watch Penny rush outside the mansion, just like every Thursday. He pressed his lips into a thin.

"Didn’t she say she didn’t need to go every Thursday last week?"
