Chapter 1100: Thus, begin the five-day vacation
Feeling a little down when things weren’t going Penny’s way was a natural reaction. But when they finally caught sight of the Pierson family rest house, she understood the reason Old Mrs. Pierson didn’t see a problem with having more people with them.
"This is not a mansion," Penny remarked, her jaw almost dropping to the floor as she gazed at the castle on top of the hill. "That is a castle."
It wasn’t just Penny who was astounded by the glorious castle ahead, but most of them. Even Atlas couldn’t help but look and stare at it.
"Wow," Slater and Hugo breathed out, followed by Allen, "Wow."
"It is designed to look like a castle, but it’s still a mansion," Zoren remarked, watching how everyone looked back at him. "Did I say something wrong?"
"That’s how you brag without knowing you’re bragging, huh?" Hugo commented quietly before setting his eyes on the window again. "Wow. I never realized my brother-in-law was rich until today. I never knew anyone who owned a castle."
"This island itself is owned by the Piersons," Atlas commented flatly, flinching when he heard the "ka-ching" sound from his second brother. Looking at Hugo, he furrowed his brows and saw the money signs in his brother’s eyes.
"This island is owned by the Piersons?" Allen asked, looking at Zoren.
"That’s right!" Benjamin smirked proudly. "But while it may be like that, the actual owner of this island is the chairwoman. From what I heard, this is where she grew up."
"In that castle?"
"I knew it," Atlas whispered. "She was lying about her age."
"It wasn’t a castle back then," Zoren answered this time, giving clarity to this. "At least, that’s what she said. It used to be a small hut, and then she got it renovated when she was older. From what I heard, it’s because Grandma remembers a story my great-grandmother used to tell her."
