Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 261

Chapter 261: Testing my skills

At this moment, Penny had three options:

Option 1: Swing her feet back up and kick him right in his family jewels.

Option 2: Strike him with her elbow straight to his gut... Then beat him to a pulp.

Option 3: Panic.

She panicked for the first five seconds. However, the third option quickly fell off the list as Penny considered which of the other two this guy — the one invading her personal space — deserved more.

As she weighed her options, she caught a faint, familiar scent of musk. Mixed with it was the sterile smell of medicine, like that from a hospital.

What a weird combination of perfumes, she thought.

"Huh?" Penny cocked her head back to look at the person, the top of her head brushing against his chest.

Even from this angle, she quickly recognized him.

Her face twitched. ’Isn’t this... my husband?!’

Just yesterday, this guy was telling her to basically leave him alone. His bodyguards even stopped her, accusing her of trying to shortcut her way through life.

And now look at him! Making a claim!

Wow!

"I am expecting an important..." Zoren trailed off as the scent of toast wafted through his nostrils. He slowly looked down. Despite his deteriorating vision, he could feel someone staring up at him, looking him in the eye.

’There’s a person here...’ he thought, realizing he had miscalculated. _{freēwēbnovel.com}

Just now, as he approached the reception desk, he saw something in front of it. He thought it was just a banner, or perhaps a misplaced seasonal mascot.

He could swear he tried to avoid it — avoid her. But it seemed that losing his vision and relying solely on estimation wasn’t as easy as he thought. He would need more practice.

"I... am... flirting," he said, keeping his gaze on her. "Testing my skills, and I failed."

Penny’s face contorted as she detected how he forced each LETTER out. She even wondered if he would choke before he could finish his sentence.

’He... didn’t even try to sound convincing!’ she mentally gasped before she blurted out, "What’s wrong with you?"

"Sorry," he muttered before pushing himself away from her.

Zoren took a step to the side and looked at the receptionist. "Benjamin is better at this," was all he said before turning his back on Penny and walking away as if nothing had happened.

"Oy, oy." Penny crooked her fingers while watching him in disbelief. "You can’t just leave like that—"

"You again!"

Penny flinched at the loud voice beside her. She turned her head and furrowed her brows at the red-faced man glaring daggers at her. His nose was flaring as if he would breathe fire at her.

"Who are you?"

Benjamin frowned deeper. "Didn’t the guards tell you to leave our boss alone? Tsk! People nowadays are so bold — even coming to someone’s workplace with their own agenda!"

’It’s a good thing the CEO of Prime Group reached out. I’ll soon have my peace,’ Benjamin thought, calming himself.

This shameless woman...!
