Dad, that is a weirdlooking cat.” 

And that shifted everyone’s attention to the big cage on top of the table

Atlas barely had a glimpse of its face, but based on its size and body type, he assumed it was a cat

Allison and Haines secretly bit their tongues as they snuck a look at Charles. Charles had this blank look on 

his face

Thatthat’s not a cat,Haines breathed out, making Atlas furrow his brows

If it wasn’t a cat, then was it a baby hippo with hair

Mom, are we keeping pets now?Slater frowned as he glanced at the cage. He let go of his mother’s waist and approached the table, lowering his head to look at the cat. His face instantly crumpled in dismay

Is this a hybrid pet?he blurted out, looking back at Charles curiously. Dad, is this one of those exotic 

types?”

Curious, Atlas also lowered his head to examine the 

little animal inside

Their family never kept pets for some reason. Not that Atlas hated them, he just couldn’t take care of it. But he also knew Hugo wanted to have a pet on his own, but didn’t ask because of their younger siblings. Only when Penny came and rescued a cat did a pet step into the mansion. It wasn’t a problem so far because Atlas could see Penny taking care of her pets and not relying on the servants all the time

It does look exoticAtlas rubbed his chin, unable to tell if this was a cat or another breed of rabbit. Why does it look so hideous, though?” 

Haines and Allison’s gaze automatically went down, not willing to check on Charles anymore. They could already imagine how devastated Charles was at this second

Dad, are you okay?Nina asked innocently, seeing that their father turned pale

Charles listlessly looked at his boys and then at Haines and Allison. Those two lied to him. He knew it! He messed it up

Atlas sighed a little. If you want to get close to Penny, you should take care of her pets instead. Adding another pet to give her will only add to her 

responsibilities.He often sees Penny clean after her pets, and another one means she would have to clean. after this additional pet too

How would she study if all she did was take care of animals

Allison smiled weakly and said, It’s actually Penny’s request to have aa mouse.” 

This is a mouse?!Slated gasped and quickly jumped away from the cage. He looked at it skeptically before pointing a finger at it. This is not a mouse! It’s

MOUSE!” 

Charles’s ears drooped. I was thinking of its survival because she has a cat pet.” 

Cats hunt mice, but this one will hunt the cat. Dad, you thought of the mouse’s survival, but not the cat,” Atlas casually commented, as if he couldn’t care less about his fathe s broken heart. He shook his head, finding this ridiculous. I’m going to head back to my 

room.”

As soon as those words rolled out of Atlas’s mouth, Penny’s cheerful voice came in

We’re back~!” 

As if by magic, Charles magically regained his speed and strength. He jumped away from his spot, dragging Slater and Atlas beside him. He hooked an arm over Atlas’s shoulder and Slater, keeping him sandwiched between them to hide the cage behind them

Atlas frowned at being dragged into this, but he didn’t voice it out. His father needed help to hide that hideouslooking and monstrous rat

Penny had this wonderful grin, darting her eyes to the people in the living area

They seemed they were having a good time, she thought

Hey! You’re back! How’s your day?!Charles laughed awkwardly

At this point, Haines also stood and walked beside Slater. They should at least help Charles salvage 

himself

Good,Hugo nodded. We had a good time.” 

Chunchun also got her shot. They were also groomed. Butler Jen shared with a smile, but he quickly noticed the stiff look on everyone’s face. Sir, is everything alright?” 

Ah?Charles raised his brows. Ah, yes! Everything’s okay!” 

Butler Jen was a little skeptical but didn’t reveal it. He thought he could just ask later

Nina glanced at the family, who were trying hard to hide that cage in plain sight. She pursed her lips and gazed at Penny, frowning

Everyone, even Slater and Atlas, was helping Charles

But the little fake princess thought that if Penny knew about the ugly mouse, she might show her real colors. A smile turned up on Nina’s face as she opened her 

mouth.” 

Penny, did you ask Dad for a mouse? Nina’s voice was laced with innocence, but her question made everyone freeze

Everyone’s eyes turned to her in disbelief. Charles. especially, signaled her not to remind Penny. But Nina

Mhm.Penny nodded, blinking innocently

Hugo, who heard about this from Butler Jen, tilted head. Dad, you said you were going to get her one today, so we didn’t buy one. Did you?” 

You did?!Penny clasped her hands together, eyes twinkling as she gazed up at Charles, Atlas, and Haines. She didn’t spare Slater a look, making him 

frown

I’m here! Can’t you see me too?!” 

Haines didn’t know what to say while Atlas glared at Nina. Even if Nina was young, didn’t she learn how to read the room? Atlas had to delay his rest to help his father, but Nina just ran her mouth

Seeing the look on Atlas, Nina lowered her head and frowned. But deep in her heart, she knew that once Penny saw that mouse, she wouldn’t be able to hide her dismay

As for Charles, his mouth opened and closed but his
