Pampered By My Three Brothers: The Return Of The Neglected Heiress - Chapter 371

Chapter 371: Mini heart attacks
Today, Zoren’s first realization of the day was… this was how he wanted to wake up every day. Perhaps, even if his body wanted to give in, he would still wake up if this was what he was going to wake up to.

“Good morning, wife.”

Zoren propped his temple against his knuckles, his eyes squinting to see her features more clearly. Unlike in the past several weeks, he could now make out the shape of her face.

‘A small face, her cheeks a little plump.’ His lips curled up subtly as he poked her cheek lightly. He then continued to trace her face with his fingertips. ‘Her eyebrows are slightly thin, her eyelashes are quite long, her nose small and a bit pointy, and her jaw… is a little small.’

Considering the image of the young Penny in his mind, he could clearly imagine her face now as an adult.

‘She did become a beauty who will stun the world,’ he thought, chuckling faintly. ‘Though that isn’t the most important.’

His failing vision had never been a hindrance to knowing she was a wonderful person.

Looking back to the time she first approached him, followed him like a creep, and then appeared again in his own territory, it seemed fate had its own way of twisting and tangling its strings. But at the end of the day, they’re still connected.

Now, he remembered that dream he had some time ago.

That door in his dream… opened to a new world. Just one step, and such a dazzling world welcomed him. Most importantly, she was there.

Zoren smiled in satisfaction, resting his arm over her chest, his fingertips stroking her cheek. For minutes, he stayed like that, as if he had no plans to get up and work. He didn’t want to go to work. He just wanted to stay like this—much more peaceful.

“Penelope,” he called, his voice a little coarse. “Wake up. I know a buffet you’d like.”

“Mhm.” Penny moaned and slowly rolled onto her side, turning her back to him. “Chunchun, stop it. Still sleepy.”

His brows rose as he stared at her back. “I’m not Chunchun…” he trailed off, catching a black figure from the corner of his eye. Deep lines appeared between his brows as he sat up, spotting Renny sleeping in the corner of his bedroom with a little white ball on top of him.

It was Chunchun, sleeping on Renny.

“He doesn’t like sleeping indoors for quite some time now,” he whispered, recalling that his black panther enjoyed the outdoors more. Therefore, Renny had his own open house around the residence. But it seemed Renny had slept here tonight as well.

Zoren chuckled, snapping his eyes back to Penny again. Seeing that she still wanted to sleep, he didn’t bother her any longer. He flung his legs out of bed and started his morning, knowing this was not the time for him to be too comfortable with her.

He still had to impress her more — even more this time.

So, Zoren headed to the bathroom, just to make sure he looked his best once she woke up. He might have to do this forever, but he didn’t mind impressing his wife forever.

With that thought in mind, he left.

Minutes later, Penny’s brows twitched as something was tickling her nose. She turned around, but the same sensation struck her again. Opening her eyes, the first thing she saw was Chunchun nudging her face. Her lips curled up immediately as she hugged Chunchun.

“Good morning, Chunchun,” she greeted happily, her heart already full even though she had barely woken up. “It’s a good day.”

When she felt something warm and heavy on her back, she looked over and saw Renny. She chuckled and rolled onto her back, hugging the black panther with just one arm.

“Morning, Blacky~” she chuckled as the panther started licking her face. “Ahh… too early for such sweetness.”

Penny indulged her beloved pets, who were healing her entire world, until she suddenly froze. She snapped her eyes wide open and, without a second’s hesitation, sat up like a corpse rising from its coffin. Turning her head in a panic, all she saw was the other side of the bed, which was empty.

“Renren,” she whispered. “Where did he go?”

Her eyes slowly widened in horror. Letting go of Chunchun, she hurriedly flung her legs out of the bed. Just as she was about to rush outside, she heard the shower running.

Penny stopped, turning her head in the direction of the bathroom. “Oh.” Her heart and body calmed down in relief. “He’s there.”

Slowly, the corner of her lips curled up, and she heaved another sigh of relief. She then laughed to herself, shaking her head at her silliness.

“I’m silly,” she murmured before casting her cats a look. “Sorry. Thought he was missing.”

Penny returned to the bed and picked up Chunchun in her arms. Renny looked up at her as if he was waiting to be picked up as well.

“I’m sorry, Blacky, but I can’t carry you,” she said apologetically before placing Chunchun on top of him. “But I’m hungry. Let’s go make something for breakfast.”

Having said that, Penny fixed the bed out of habit before the three of them went out of the bedroom to make some breakfast. As the door closed, the door to the walk-in closet opened minutes later. Zoren stepped out while fixing the buttons of his inner shirt, only to stop completely.

When he turned his head, the bed was empty. His eyes quickly moved to the corner where Renny and Chunchun had been, but they were no longer there.

His heart thudded, and before he could think that he was now having delusions, he ran out of the bedroom in a hurry. But just as he reached the mezzanine, a whiff of toast and coffee assaulted his nostrils. Following the smell was the faint sound of her voice echoing.

“Renny! No— not— oh, my god.”

Her voice was very faint, considering the place was huge, and it was rare to hear someone from another part of the house. His shoulders relaxed as he took his time going down the stairs and into the kitchen.

As soon as he reached the kitchen, he saw Penny working in the kitchen while Chunchun sat quietly on the counter. Renny, on the other hand, was all over Penny’s legs. Seeing this sight, Zoren sighed in relief and leaned his side against the jamb.

‘So, this is what married life is, huh?’ he smiled until all his teeth were on full display. ‘All these mini heart attacks are bad for my heart. Zoren, you need to fix your eyes as soon as possible.’
