Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 967

Chapter 967: The person who killed me is one of your brothers.

There were only two types of people who would enter Finn’s ward without knocking: the first was Nina, and the second was someone who had bad intentions for him. Even the nurses would knock before coming in.

Who would have thought there was a third option?

"Penelope," Finn called, smiling the moment he recognized his visitor. "I didn’t expect you to come here so soon."

"You got into an accident right after you met me, asking me to protect Nina," Penny remarked as she walked in, casually sitting down in the chair beside the bed. She took her time, leaning back and resting one leg over the other. "How have you been, Finn Davis?"

"Fine — better, actually. And you?"

"I’m not the one who had an accident and fell into a coma. So, I’m okay."

"Yet."

Penny slowly raised an eyebrow at him. "Yet?" she repeated, then chuckled. "No, never."

"Penelope, I was careful, but look what happened to me."

"Then that means you’re not careful enough, Finn Davis."

Finn pressed his lips together, chuckling with his mouth closed. "You’re right. I might not have been careful enough to avoid falling for such an obvious trick."

"While you were in a coma, do you know how many assassination attempts were made in your life?" she asked, as though it were of little importance. "If you were careful enough, you’d have someone by your side to make sure you don’t die in your sleep."

"I did come to you before I fell into a coma, didn’t I?"

"Are you saying the accident was part of your plan?"

"I can’t say it was part of my plan per se... but somehow, I knew my life was in danger." Finn maintained a friendly smile, though it didn’t quite reach his eyes. "I’m just glad I was able to reach out to you before it was too late. So, I guess I wasn’t as careless as you make me out to be?"

Silence quickly followed his remarks as the two of them stared at each other. After a while, the corner of Penny’s lips curled into a satisfied smirk.

"Welcome back from the dead, Finn Davis," she said, her voice full of satisfaction, which made his smile stretch even wider. "I thought you’d be a little different after your accident, but you’re still as sharp as I remember."

"If you’ve spared me a minute of your time to come here, I shouldn’t disappoint you, can I?"

"I’m glad coming here isn’t a waste of my time."

"And I’m honored you feel that way."

"So?" Penny tilted her head to the side. "Which one should we discuss now, Mr. Davis? Was this a good time to catch up on what happened in the past? Or should I first ask why Jonathan is targeting you? Or perhaps the fact that you asked Yugi to protect Nina the moment you woke up?"

She paused, her eyes gleaming with intrigue. "Where should we start?"
