Pampered By My Three Brothers: The Return Of The Neglected Heiress - Chapter 375

Chapter 375: Dame of Hell
Penny and Zoren continued running to put distance between themselves and Hugo. After all, Hugo might decide to come after them instead of the guy he was wrestling with. When they felt they were far enough from where they had bumped into Hugo and realized he wasn’t following them, they slowed down.

“Ah, goodness… why is this night so eventful?” Penny panted for air, shaking her head slightly. “If I see my third brother here, I would lose it.”

Penny shook her head again. “I didn’t expect First Brother to actually search for me.”

Thinking about how she got out of the Bennet Mansion, her face soured. She knew she would be dead if Atlas got a hold of her. However, she hadn’t thought he would search for her on the street!

“It’s not like I’m a missing child!” she complained as she continued walking slowly. “Did he think driving like he was in a race would help him find me faster? Sometimes, my First Brother’s logic makes me wonder just what book he is reading.”

His logic was nonsense.

If Atlas had a point, it would be pointless — and inkless ink.

Again, Penny shook her head as her heart rate slowly stabilized. “I guess no more events tonight,” she told herself. “Slater’s probably snoring now, so there’s no way we will bump into him. All we have to do is stay alert in case Brother Atlas drives around here again…”

Penny trailed off when she noticed the person with her wasn’t responding. Looking to her side, her brows knitted together. She continued to turn her head until she was looking back. There, a few meters behind her, was Zoren.

“Renren?” she called, jogging back to him. Standing in front of him, her eyes scanned him from head to toe. “Hey, are you okay?”

When he looked up at her, his face was drained of color! He wasn’t just pale; he looked like he had bled out without actually bleeding!

“Oh, no,” she murmured under her breath, instinctively holding his arm. “Renren, are you okay? What do you feel?”

Zoren’s vision was getting blurry, and he felt like his world was spinning. His heart was racing so fast that he was struggling to catch his breath. He squinted, trying to stay conscious. However, even her voice sounded like it was growing distant.

“Penny,” he breathed out, looking at her.

His blurry vision briefly cleared, but all he saw were her worried eyes. He saw the concern in her eyes so clearly that he told himself he couldn’t collapse right now. However, even though his willpower was strong, his body wasn’t strong enough to handle all the strenuous activities they had been through tonight.

“I…” his breath grew heavier as his grip on her shoulder tightened. “… I’m sorry.”

As soon as those words left his lips, everything went black. His body went limp like a withered flower. Fortunately, Penny was there to catch him.

She quickly hugged him so he would fall toward her. “Damn…” she clenched her teeth, feeling his weight on her. “…it.”

Just when she thought there wouldn’t be any more big events tonight, there was another one! She should’ve known that in every performance, the last one was the biggest, the most anticipated, and the most spectacular part of the event! In this situation, the last event was the biggest disaster, the least anticipated, and the most spectacularly horrifying!

“Oh, no…” Penny held onto him while his entire body draped over her.

Looking down at Renny, she was tempted to put Zoren on Renny’s back so the panther could carry him. However, Zoren was tall, and if she placed him on Renny’s back, his hands would graze the concrete ground. Moreover, her baby Renny was too young to be carrying such responsibility.

How could she, Renny’s mother, let her child carry Zoren?

That would be like a child carrying his drunk father.

Penny sighed and looked around the empty street. “I should’ve just faced First Brother’s judgment instead of running away from him. I forgot Renren’s health is worse than Slater’s deteriorating brain cells.”

She shook her head, wondering if Zoren’s bodyguards had followed them. However, since Zoren’s current bodyguards were her people, she knew they hadn’t. Since Penny was already with Zoren, those guys thought they could slack off!

“Oh, my heart…” another sigh escaped her as she gazed at the man collapsing on her. “I’m sorry, Renren. I promise I’ll keep this to my grave.”

Having said that, Penny repositioned her arms and then bent down on her knees. When she straightened her legs, Zoren was already on her shoulder, with her arm around his body for support. She bit her bottom lip, closing her eyes as she processed the situation.

This was slightly humiliating for her because if anyone saw her carrying him like a sack of rice, they might think she wasn’t suited for him at all. After all, she wanted to be a delicate maiden in front of him, not a weightlifter.

While Penny was lamenting internally, Chunchun and Renny looked at each other. Chunchun purred as if telling her brother just how capable their mother was. Renny let out a small growl in agreement before the two of them looked at their alpha mother with admiration.

Surely, their father was lucky to have such a strong woman by his side.

She would surely protect him like a princess.

“Boss, where do you think Miss Penny took our employer?” one of the bodyguards waiting near the cars parked by the playground asked. “Are they together?”

“Miss Penny never disclosed her personal relationships, but I never thought she would send us to her lover.”

“Are you sure they were together?” another bodyguard asked. “With Miss Penny’s personality, I don’t think she will suit… well, I guess they’ll suit each other.”

One of their colleagues snorted. “They will suit each other? I don’t think so.”

“And why is that?”

“Because they’re both alphas in their own game,” explained the bodyguard. “We all know Miss Penny, but I’m still surprised that Zoren Pierson is such a tough guy even with his health condition. He is, indeed, ruthless.”

“You have a point.” The other bodyguards nodded, as they had already had enough time to observe Zoren. “Unless Miss Penny likes him that much, then she’d probably act like a princess in front of him.”

“Well, she’s been acting elegant for some reason. It’s weird.”

The bodyguards couldn’t help but gossip, which they wouldn’t usually do. However, this was about Penny, and their real boss was directly involved in this strange matter.

“Miss Penny is old enough, and she hadn’t dated because of Boss Wild. I still hope she can find her happiness.”

“As long as she keeps it up, Zoren Pierson would definitely fall for her…” the bodyguard trailed off as they spotted a figure approaching. “Who’s that? A beggar in this neighborhood?”

All the bodyguards who were waiting for Penny and Zoren to return stared at the approaching figure. However, when they noticed the black panther following the figure and realized it was Penny, all their jaws dropped.

They were just saying that Penny should act more like a damsel in distress. But what was this?! Why did the two of them leave, only to come back with her carrying him like a sack of rice?! This was no damsel in distress, but the Dame of Hell!
