Pampered By My Three Brothers: The Return Of The Neglected Heiress - Chapter 1692

Chapter 1692: He really can’t get enough of her.
[Skyline Plaza: Zoren’s]

Zoren sat in an intricate metal garden chair in the large clearing of the greenhouse. He leaned back, arching a brow as a bodyguard approached from the side.

The bodyguard quietly bent over and whispered in his ear.

“She’s heading here?” Zoren asked, and the bodyguard nodded. “I see.”

Placing his hands on the armrests, Zoren pushed himself up. The bodyguard had just told him that Penny was coming down from the residence and seemed to be heading this way. He wouldn’t just let his wife walk in here and taint her beautiful eyes with the grotesque scene inside.

“Hmm!” A weary grunt echoed, reaching Zoren’s ears. “Hmm!”

A man’s pained grunt overlapped with a low growl and the sickening sound of snapping bones.

Zoren paused and turned toward the sound. There, on the lawn, was Renny, snacking ferociously on a man’s leg. Despite catching sight of a portion of the limb almost torn off, his expression remained unchanged.

“Add another layer over his mouth,” he ordered indifferently, looking away as he strode off. “I don’t want my wife to hear even a breath from him.”

The bodyguard lowered his head while Zoren walked past. Once Zoren was out of sight, the bodyguard turned to the man being devoured by Renny.

‘I thought I wouldn’t see this again,’ he thought, neither shocked nor disturbed. This wasn’t the first — or even the second — time he had witnessed something like this.

But ever since Penny came into their boss’s life, both Zoren and Renny had casually donned their sheep’s clothing and behaved. Neither had acted out, sticking to a strict diet of peace and harmony. Zoren might not bite people’s legs off, but he too had been on a “diet,” considering the path he had been on before meeting Penny.

As for Renny, it was clear this was still his favorite snack. And the black panther was savoring every bite.

The bodyguard let out a slow exhale. ‘Well… I guess Renny deserved this snack. But these guys? They deserved to be snacks too.’

After all, the man who had just passed out after getting his leg eaten while still conscious was one of the members of the Phantom Circle. One of those who had spread “misinformation” and encouraged certain members not aligned with Zoren to betray him.

‘He had this coming.’

The Phantom Circle had been quiet and inactive for some time, but they were still the Phantom Circle. And all of them, Zoren included, abided by the rules and punishments he had laid down.

And this wouldn’t end with just this guy. There had already been others before him, and there would be more after.

How inconvenient.

Meanwhile, when Zoren stepped out of the greenhouse, a few bodyguards stood watch outside. Mark, stationed just beyond the door, lowered his head in a silent bow.

No words were exchanged as Zoren turned and caught sight of his wife approaching.

He didn’t wait for her to reach him. Instead, he walked ahead to meet her halfway — not just because he never let Penny come to him, but also because he didn’t want her to hear anything from inside the greenhouse.

“Penny.” His steps slowed until he stood in front of her. “It’s late. Why are you still awake?”

Penny frowned. “Renren, do you really think I just go to sleep when you sneak out in the middle of the night?”

“I had some extra work to do,” he said with a smile, reaching for her hand. “Come. I’ll join you in bed until you fall asleep.”

“Renren.” Penny sighed, hooking her arms around him. “That’s not what I’m here for. Though… I do want you to stay with me until I fall asleep and don’t notice when you’re gone.”

Zoren’s smile widened. “Then why are you here?”

The moment he asked, her expression shifted ever so slightly.

“Is something wrong?” he asked, watching her smack her lips.

“Nothing’s wrong. It’s just that… First Brother and Dean found out about Delro, and they’ve got loads and loads of information,” she said, showing him the phone in her hand, which displayed one of the pictures Atlas had sent.

“Turns out Delro isn’t a place or a person — it’s Jonathan’s password,” she explained. “And this password led them to an underground vault where they found all of this.”

Zoren leaned closer for a better look.

The photo on her screen showed a wall filled with photos, papers, notes, and a map. It was a wide shot of the information wall from inside the vault.

“There’s more,” Penny added as he lifted his gaze to her. “Second Brother and Mint are already on their way to pick those two up. Apparently, they’re trapped in a love motel because someone found out about Delro. They’re not taking any chances of being spotted and dragged into more trouble than they’ve already gotten themselves into.”

Zoren slowly nodded, keeping his composure. He knew this was a massive pile of information they’d have to sift through together.

“I’ll send some of my men to assist them,” he offered, but Penny shook her head.

“There’s no need for that,” she replied. “I know you’re restructuring the Phantom Circle, and it’s hard to trust them right now. So, I called Uncle Wild and asked him to send some of his trusted new faces to help instead.”

Her lips curled into a small smile. She unhooked her arms from his, stood on her toes, placed one hand on his shoulder, and kissed his cheek.

“Finish things quickly,” she whispered as she pulled back, then pointed at him. “I’ll print these out so we have a board ready once they get here.”

With that, she patted his shoulder lightly and walked away. Zoren watched her go with a smile.

“Gorgeous,” he murmured, chuckling. He then raised his hand and gestured behind him, prompting Mark to approach.

“Yes, sir?”

Zoren glanced over his shoulder. “Wrap this up quickly. And make sure Chunchun’s fur is spotless. She’s watching Renny too closely while he eats.”

“Yes, sir.”

With that, Zoren followed after his wife, while Mark silently watched him leave.

‘He really can’t get enough of her.’
