Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 981

Chapter 981: Damn right I did

[PRESENT TIME]

Penny almost choked on her food at the quick story while she was running a fever. Her mouth opened and closed as she looked at them in disbelief.

"Mom!" she yelled, only to see Allison beam. She then cast a look at Zoren, but the latter shrugged in response. "Oh, my god..."

Meanwhile...

"Hi." A beautiful young woman gracefully sat down across from Atlas. Her pink lips curled beautifully, and her thin, long lashes fluttered.

Her simple brows rose slightly as she watched the handsome man in front of her lift his sharp, dark olive eyes. "I’m—"

"Rosie."

"Huh?"

"Are you Rosie?" Atlas asked, tilting his head to the side.

The woman blinked, confusion spreading across her face. "Are you not Mister Atlas Bennet?"

"I am."

"Then I am your date," she explained, still sounding confused. "My name is... Love."

"Ah." Atlas deadpanned, unfazed by the beauty shining in front of him. He quietly checked his wristwatch and smirked. "You’re early, Miss Love. We’re supposed to meet one hour from now. I was supposed to meet with Miss Rosie."

"Oh..." The woman maintained a graceful smile despite her confusion. "You’re on a different blind date, except with me?"

"I’m surprised you hadn’t noticed that, considering how cold this cup of tea is here."

Love pursed her lips and glanced at the untouched tea in front of him. How am I supposed to know that it’s cold? Still, out of formality, she ignored it and kept up appearances.

"Well, I came early, and whoever this Rosie was isn’t here. Why don’t we just get to know each other?" She suggested. "It’s a date, and she’s late. It’s not very polite."

"It is not polite. However, this time is specifically for Miss Rosie."

"But—"

"I appreciate your enthusiasm, but I can’t agree with what you’re suggesting. We have time together, and even if Miss Rosie is late, there’s still a possibility that she will show up."

"Then, make her wait."

Atlas arched a brow, catching the cunning smirk on her face. "She’s making you wait. So, why not make her wait as well?"

"Vengeful... I like it."
