Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 524

Chapter 524: She was his wife

[Skyline Plaza: Zoren’s Place]

Penny and Zoren hugged each other under the sheet. Her leg rested over him, and her arm hugged him like a bear. She was almost treating him as a pillow, but he just chuckled.

"How was the call with your dad?" he asked, his voice a little coarse.

Penny hummed with her lips closed. "It went well. I kind of miss him."

"Should we go there for breakfast tomorrow?" he suggested. "Our plans for that have been postponed so many times."

"And whose fault is that?" she pouted. "You keep giving me hickeys. Goodness. How am I supposed to wear something nice if my priority is to cover my body?"

"I’ll be careful." He smiled, moving his face closer until the tips of their noses touched. "I mean, I’ll try."

"Renren, what is that supposed to mean?" she quickly placed a hand on his chest, drawing her head back from him. However, she couldn’t move any further because his arm was resting over her waist to still her.

He chuckled. "I’m joking."

"Geez!"

"Still on your period?"

Penny pressed her lips into a thin line. "Mhm." Hearing her hum made him sigh a bit.

The entire heaven knew just how much he had been restraining himself. Ever since they came home to his place, all they had done was cuddle and do everything else together. Not that he was complaining, but he was greedy.

"Hehe." Penny giggled mischievously, and in one swift move, she pushed his shoulder abruptly. She caught him off guard, and he immediately fell on his back. Before he knew it, she was already straddling him.

For a moment, his eyes widened a little, gazing at the face hovering over him. She caught her lips moving, revealing her pearly teeth. She planted her hands on his chest, bending over playfully.

"Renren, today’s a good day, don’t you think?" she playfully remarked. "I mean, not only did we clear up the mystery behind the marriage, but it’s good that we did it! Hehe! I thought someone else put our names on a marriage certificate together for whatever sick reason they had."

Although she couldn’t completely say her reason wasn’t also sick. Who would marry a stranger—a dying man at that—just because she wanted to change her surname? But she didn’t dwell on it. Everything fell into its rightful place, anyway.

"Didn’t you say you still have your period?" he asked, genuinely curious. But after a second, he squinted as he slowly placed his hands on her hips. "You were lying?"

"Hehe."

"So that means..." Taking her off guard this time, Zoren flipped her over until he was hovering on top of her. A short squeal escaped her mouth, but it was followed by a giggle as his face closed in. He brushed the tip of his nose against her cheek, grinning.

"I’ll be careful..." he whispered as his lips leaned in to claim hers. "... next time."

Before she could react, he sealed her lips with his. Hence, all that was heard was her protesting moan.
