Chapter 1417: Don’t worry, girl. I got you.
Meanwhile...
Nina carefully sliced the cake, unable to stop herself from glancing at Penny across the counter. Penny watched the cake like a hawk, looking as if she might drool if Nina stalled any longer.
Quickly, Nina placed a slice on a plate and slid it in front of Penny.
"Here," she said. "Eat this first while I get the guys some."
"Huh?" Penny snapped her eyes up, blinking innocently.
"Finn and I don’t really eat sweets that much, so this cake will just sit in the fridge forever." Nina chuckled, winking. "We’d really appreciate it if you helped us finish it."
Penny’s eyes lit up, her mouth stretching into a wide grin. "Sweet! I might start living here to help you with the leftovers. Thanks!"
Without wasting a breath, she picked up a fork and cut a huge portion. Although buying the cake for Nina had been her idea, it looked so cute that she got too excited. It was the last one in the shop, and she had wanted to give the best to Nina. But at the same time, she had also been tempted to taste it.
Sure enough, it was just as delicious as it looked.
As Penny moaned in satisfaction, savoring the first bite, Nina chuckled and continued slicing pieces for Zoren and Finn.
