Chapter 1005: My wife never lies to me
"SLATER BENNET! YOU ARE SO DEAD!"
Everyone in the master bedroom acted as if they hadn’t heard Penny. They didn’t even look in her direction when she bolted out of the bathroom and straight into the bedroom.
Moments ago, Penny had been helping Zoren wipe the little blood that had dripped from her husband’s nose. Once the bleeding stopped, Penny excused herself to wash her hands. She probably saw her face and put two and two together.
"She’s not going to get angry that none of us said a word, right?" Hugo wondered aloud, staring at the slightly ajar door, which allowed them to hear Penny yelling as if she was just outside.
"I guess not..." Charles shrugged. "Let her be. It only shows that she’s all good now. Just pray that Slater can run fast."
After that, everyone turned their attention back to Zoren.
"Like I was saying, I’m not forbidding Penny from expressing her feelings. However, even if you’re recovering, we have to be extra strict about it," Atlas continued as if his sister hadn’t just stormed out of the bedroom to chase down his other brother. His eyes lingered on Zoren, his expression stern but sincere.
"The doctor told us that even though you’re recovering well and the medicines Penny’s been giving you are working, it doesn’t mean you’ve fully healed. What I’m trying to say is, right now, your body is still affected in a way, even if you feel fine," he added. "I don’t think you’d be having nosebleeds or coughing up blood if you were fully recovered. So, try to understand. If such cheesy words make you so excited, then do it slowly."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Your First Brother is right, Zoren," Allison added gently. "For now, let’s focus on your health and getting you better."
"Don’t be stubborn. I know Penny can be stubborn, but don’t follow her example," Charles commented.
"For a second, I thought you were a pervert," Hugo laughed, grinning at Zoren. "But anyway, congrats on getting better! This is a road to full recovery!"
