Chapter 1551: I’d like to see Father’s reaction to this
"Ahhh..." Zoren nodded, looking at the fuming Atlas seated on the long couch in his office.
For a moment, Zoren thought his brother-in-law had caught wind of Zoren’s decision to give Patricia a gift. After all, Atlas had expressed his disapproval of Patricia. She wasn’t particularly likable, but Zoren saw it as part of his "fatherhood program" before the real quadruplets arrived.
"So, we are... gay?" Zoren repeated, nodding in understanding. "Well, that’s interesting."
A glint flickered across Atlas’s eyes as he glared daggers at Zoren, who found it all quite intriguing. However, Atlas’s concern wasn’t what one might expect.
"I’m surprised you’re okay being romantically tied to someone other than your wife."
"Haha. It’s just a misunderstanding," Zoren chuckled. "The person in the picture is still Penny. Although I didn’t expect her insoles to make it seem like you two are the same height. You are clearly past my shoulder, while Penny barely reaches my shoulder."
As Zoren explained, he sensed the temperature in his office slowly rising. His smile faltered as he looked at Atlas, who returned his gaze sharply.
"I didn’t mean to comment on your stature," he clarified. "I apologize."
"This is exactly what I was concerned about when you two were seen strolling hand in hand with her in those clothes," Atlas sighed, pressing a thumb to his temple and closing his eyes. "Zoren, Pierson Corporation is rather patriarchal with old-fashioned views."
Atlas then glanced at him with one eye. "This scandal is enough to warrant an emergency meeting."
And that was why Atlas was angry.
It wasn’t that Atlas would be upset over such baseless rumors. They weren’t true, and therefore didn’t affect him emotionally. Besides, if it were true that he and Zoren were romantically involved, it wouldn’t be anyone’s business.
