Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 366

Chapter 366: Angel

[SKYLINE PLAZA: ZOREN]

"Sir, you can’t take the black panther out," said the bodyguard as he watched Zoren put Renny on a leash. "It might create a huge ruckus if it runs around."

"Don’t worry. Renny is trained," Zoren replied, continuing to make sure his panther was comfortable with the leash on. "He’ll behave."

"Sir, that is not what I’m concerned about," the bodyguard spoke with concern. "Not many are used to seeing a black panther on the street."

"I know that. I did my research."

The bodyguard was momentarily speechless, wondering if this was the reason Benjamin was already watching his blood pressure. "Things might go awry."

"It won’t." When Zoren finished, he snapped his eyes at the bodyguard. "Renny will be fine, and I’ve already made a few calls. So, it’ll get a pass."

"We can’t stop others from hurting it if things go south," the bodyguard remarked, and Zoren nodded.

"Don’t worry."

"And Miss Penelope might hurt all of us if that happens," he added.

Zoren tilted his head slightly to the side. "Did she also say to look after my son?"

"No," the bodyguard let out another shallow breath. "She said she liked the panther. Miss Penelope’s only order is to protect you, but if she likes the panther, it’s our responsibility to make sure no harm comes its way."

However, in hindsight, the panther didn’t need that much protection. It would gnaw anyone who tried to harm it. Even so, this was Penny they were talking about, and as her people, they understood where things could lead if someone deeply upset her.

Zoren smiled subtly. "Do not worry. I’ll look after Renny."

"You can’t even see properly, sir. No offense."

"None taken. With his size and color, I can see him clearly." Zoren chuckled as he got up from his seat. "Moreover, I’ve raised him. I am his father, and as his father, I can tell his mood. I know how to calm him down. Not to mention, that neighborhood is too quiet... it’s deafening."

The bodyguard assessed the confident look on Zoren before he yielded. If his employer said so, then there was nothing they could do. After all, Zoren simply wanted to take Renny for a walk.

Having said that, Zoren walked out of the mansion with the leash in his hand. It was as though he was simply out to take a little dog for a walk.

Since the panther was huge, the pickup they were going to use was already prepared outside the residence.

"I think it’s better if he stays inside," Zoren remarked, staring at the back of the pickup. "Renny might jump out and run past us instead."

The bodyguards looked at him with a flat expression. ’Didn’t he say Renny was well-behaved and wouldn’t do something like that?’

"Let’s use a bigger vehicle," he snapped his eyes at the closest bodyguard. "Can we?"

"Yes," the bodyguard nodded and cast his colleagues a look.

With that, the other bodyguard quickly ran away to get a bigger van to use. While waiting, the bodyguard cast his eyes down on the panther and then at the big cat’s master. To be fair, the panther didn’t scare them. Their boss — Penelope — was fearless and never feared such wild creatures. However, she never took any of them as pets for reasons she didn’t want any more pets.

’Speaking of pets...’ the bodyguard studied Zoren’s face. ’I think she mentioned her first wild pet is also a black panther.’

"Am I being watched now?" the bodyguard’s thoughts halted upon Zoren’s inquiry.

"No, sir."

This was the second time Zoren asked this question tonight.

"Are you sure?"

"Do not worry about your security, sir." The bodyguard nodded reassuringly. "No one can sneak past the first line of our defense without alerting us."

Zoren rocked his head. "I see."

"..." The bodyguard frowned. ’Is it necessary to ask that, sir?’

Zoren’s expression didn’t change, but he pressed his lips tighter. ’His parents didn’t want him.’
