Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 549

Chapter 549: I’m bringing a display.

[Earlier that day...]

"Penny," Atlas spoke on the phone, leaning back comfortably. "Are you coming tonight to the Giving Gala?"

Penny smiled from ear to ear, cupping her face. "Yep."

"The Ito Motors and the Millers will be there," he remarked, raising his brows. "Those two have been living life as they should. Should we kill them?"

"Hmm," she hummed, rubbing her chin as she pondered it. "Brother Atlas, you’re talking as if you’re planning their murder."

"Murder?" Atlas cocked his head back. "Well, it wouldn’t be any different after tonight."

"Hehe. Got any plans?"

"I have one," he said. "But somehow, I came up with another after Allen walked in and told me about the Ito and Miller families."

A short, mischievous giggle echoed from Penny’s line. "Can I hear the new idea?"

"Aren’t you curious about the other one?"

"No, because I know I’m not involved in it."

"Haha." Atlas let out a shallow laugh. "My second plan isn’t as complicated. It’s simply like the stepping stone method."

Her brows rose. "Stepping stone method?"

"The Ito family rarely attends gatherings in Anteca that are as big as the Giving Gala. I’m certain they’re attending for one reason: me," said Atlas. "Sven has been acting suspicious for some time now, and knowing how resilient that man is, I’m certain he’s planning something again."

"Oh..." Penny nodded thoughtfully. "So, what’s the plan?"

"Use them as our stage." The corner of Atlas’s lips curled up. "The Ito Motors have been bold enough to run their mouths, and Sven will be attending tonight to watch whatever show they put on. I’ll be their willing victim."

A willing victim... to them wasn’t as bad as it sounded.

It only meant that Atlas planned to let Ito Motors run their mouths until the time was ripe.

"Zoren Pierson and his grandmother may not say this, but I’m certain a part of them wants the Bennets to stand as a figure on their own without having to live in the huge shadow of the Pierson family," Atlas continued to explain, even though he was sure Penny had already noticed.

During the family meeting, Old Mrs. Pierson had given the rest of the family their preferences. However, she had specifically handed Allison a list of people who could help Mama reach new heights. Allison showed Atlas the list; the Pierson Corporation or any of its associates weren’t on that list. It would be foolish to assume the Pierson Corporation wasn’t interested.

But having the Piersons directly involved in any of the Bennet family affairs would easily give the illusion that the Piersons were helping them. Old Mrs. Pierson didn’t say it directly, but that wise woman still knew what she was doing.

"I will show everyone why Zoren Pierson and I have made acquaintance while standing on the bodies of the Millers and the Itos," he remarked sternly, his eyes glinting. "Although this isn’t the direction I wanted, nor did it start purely as a business, it is something I must embrace and live up to."

Penny smiled proudly, nodding at her first brother. "Thank you, First Brother."

"I’m not doing this for you."
