The next day… 

“Good morning!” Penny jogged down the stairs, catching Charles and Allison in the living area. 

Her parents glanced at her instinctively, only to see that she seemed ready to start her day. 

“You’re leaving so carly?” Allison asked with furrowed brows. 

“Yes. Morning, Daddy!” Penny stood behind the couch where Charles was sitting, bent over to give him a quick back hug, and leaned her cheek against his. 

Charles nonchalantly glanced at her, watching as she went to her mother and did the same. “Penny, isn’t it too early for you to go? You came home late last night with your mom.” 

“Your daddy is right, Penny” Allison gazed up at her daughter worriedly. “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t have a lot of work for the first two weeks after your arrival?” 

That was what Penny had thought… until she found out she was married. 

“Hehe. Well, I want to finish the office preparations as early as possible, and some matters came up,” she explained, keeping it vague. “I want to fix the issues as soon as possible.” 

“Do you need help, Penny?” asked Charles. 

Penny shook her head. “They’re just small matters, so I’m heading out early!” 

Having said that, Penny caught sight of Butler Jen coming into the living area with a tray. She jumped in front of him and grabbed three slices of bread. 

“Thank you, Butler Jen!” Penny grinned, and just like that, she sprinted out the front door. 

At the same time, Atlas was already coming down the stairs. He stopped when he saw Penny running out the front door. 

“She’s early,” he remarked as he resumed his steps, joining his parents in the living area. 

“You’re early too, Atlas, Allison pointed out, watching her eldest son approach Butler Jen. 

“Atlas…” 

Atlas picked up two slices of bread and flashed Butler Jen a smile. He then faced his parents and said, “I’m off to work.” 

After saying his piece, Atlas strode off. 

“Atlas…” Allison frowned slightly while Charles shook his head. 

“Now that Penny is here, he can’t slack off. Otherwise, his little sister… Charles trailed off, noticing the empty plate on the tray. “Those kids! Did they take all my bread?!” 

Butler Jen laughed awkwardly. “Haha… Miss Penny left two slices, but Young Master Atlas took 

the rest.

While Penny was rushing to her borrowed car from her father, Hugo’s jog slowed down. He raised a hand to catch her attention. 

“Penny!” Hugo called out, watching as she turned her head in his direction. “I have to tell you-” 

“Good morning to you too, Second Brother! I’m off!” Penny’s pace quickened, and in no time, she reached the car. 

Hugo didn’t even have time to respond and could only watch her speed away. It reminded him of the time when Penny used to bolt away whenever they tried to walk her to her building back when they were still in school. 

“Why is she in a hurry so early in the morning?” He tilted his head to the side, hands on his hips. “I wanted to tell her about the reunion and that my former team is throwing a bachelor party” Another sigh escaped Hugo, but he shrugged. He could tell her later, anyway. Just as he told himself that, he saw another figure coming out of the front door. 

“First Brother is early 

00, he muttered, noticing that Atlas seemed to be in a hurry too. “Did something happen? Why do the two of them seem to be racing?” 

Unbeknownst to Hugo, Atlas and Penny might have looked like they were in a hurry, but they were actually racing for different reasons. While Atlas was doing extra work in preparation for the upcoming discussion with Ito Motors and the Bennet Elders, Penny was rushing to dissolve a marriage she had only recently discovered. 

Parked outside the Pierson Corporation Headquarters, Penny tapped her fingers on the steering wheel while eating her breakfast. She had quickly heard back from Zoren last night, and he told her to meet him at a restaurant for lunch. 

Lunch… 

That was what he had said, but here Penny was, eating her breakfast outside his building. 

“I said as soon as possible; we could be cating breakfast together while talking about our separation,” she grumbled while munching her breakfast. 

Penny could have just stayed at home until the time of her meeting. She could have even arrived late and made him wait just to assert her authority. However, she didn’t want to deal with Slater because she had ended up eating some of the cake in the fridge last night – Butler Jen told her it was Slater’s. 

“I shouldn’t have said ‘as soon as possible, but given them a specific time and date instead, she sighed deeply, listening to her finger tapping against the steering wheel. “Forget it. I’m going in.” If she could resolve this matter this morning, why wait for lunch?

she was coming in as the CEO of Prime Group, not just some creepy stalker. 

With that thought in mind, Penny jumped out of the car and sauntered towards the main entrance of the building. On her way, she saw some employees showing their IDs to the security. Penny didn’t mind, and confidently walked toward the guards.
