Chapter 350: Do not disturb
"Second Brother? What are you doing here?"
Penny slowly rose from her seat as she watched Hugo march in. Hugo brought out a bouquet from behind his back, making her smile from ear to ear.
"For you," he said. "Congratulations on your first day of operations."
She accepted the flowers with a smile. "Thank you, but I don’t like flowers," she said as she gazed down at the bouquet. "Peonies?"
Did people think she liked peonies just because her name almost sounded the same?
"I know you don’t like flowers, but have you forgotten what you used to call us?" Hugo teased, raising his brows meaningfully. Seeing the confused look on her face, he laughed. "The fan club."
"Oh?" Penny’s mouth fell open. "Right."
"Dad really put his mind and heart into it, remember?"
"Haha, that was so long ago, and it almost slipped my mind," she chuckled before perking up. "Right. Take a seat. Sorry. I just had a lot of things to do, so today’s a little busy."
"It’s alright," Hugo said as he sat down on the couch, snapping his eyes to her. "Penny, did you forget our plans today?"
"Hmm?"
"The bachelor’s party!" Hugo reminded her. "I told everyone you were coming, so they’re gonna expect you."
