Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 335

Chapter 335: That sounds...

When Zoren left, Charles and her brothers rushed outside to check on her. Charles stood in front of her, holding her arm, looking her up and down.

"You’re fine?" asked Charles, making sure there wasn’t a single scratch on her.

Atlas walked over to Penny and studied her with scrutinizing eyes. He didn’t say anything, but she could feel how he was observing her, as if she was under a microscope.

"Penny, Penny! How was it?!" While his father and brothers were checking up on her, Slater quickly went to her side. "Did you kiss — ack!"

Slater rubbed his ear when Hugo flicked it lightly.

"Penny, did you have fun today?" asked Hugo, smiling kindly as if he wasn’t just as worried as the other members of his family. "Chunchun seemed to have missed you."

Hugo lifted the cat in his arms slightly, making Penny’s eyes fall on her beloved cat. The corners of her lips curled up, and she nodded at him.

"It was fun," she said as she faced her father. "Zoren is a gentleman, and he really looked after me today."

Charles, Atlas, Slater, and Hugo slowly lifted their gaze to her face. A mix of emotions swirled in their eyes as they tried to see any negativity on Penny’s face. But alas, there was none. All they could see in her eyes was satisfaction.

"Oh, Penny~!" Just then, Allison arrived at the scene with Haines. She quickly shoved her husband to the side, taking Charles’s spot in front of Penny. "How was the date, my dear?"

Her cheeks turned pinkish as she giggled. "It was fun. We went to an amusement park."

"An amusement park?" Allison gasped in surprise before her face softened. "Aww. Isn’t that sweet? Do you want to talk about it?"

Allison quickly held her daughter’s arm and carefully led Penny inside without stopping talking. Penny happily shared her experience.

Meanwhile, Charles and the boys slowly looked at Penny and Allison walking back in. Allison didn’t even invite them in, as if their existence was of no importance.

"Honey?" Charles sighed, clasping his chest dramatically. "I think I’m being neglected now that I’m not as handsome as I was before."

He then peeked up at his sons, expecting them to cheer him up. Sadly, when he looked up, all he saw was his sons wordlessly following their mother and sister inside.

"Haha." Haines couldn’t help but laugh at him, making Charles scrunch up his nose. "Charles, I’m still surprised you had so much hope from your sons. They wouldn’t even compliment you when they were young. In fact, Atlas only knows how to criticize every inch of you."

"This is why I wanted to have a daughter," Charles expressed his heartache. "But now, even my daughter is ignoring me."

"Because you are so dramatic," said Haines, earning another glare from Charles.

"Haines, don’t blame me for being ruthless!" Charles huffed. "But you won’t understand me because when you had the chance, you chose not to listen to me. Now, you’re old and grumpy."

"I am old, but not grumpy."
