Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 295

Chapter 295: Were they expecting?

Penny ate with grace, never forgetting her table manners. At the same time, she ate happily. She had been outside, running here and there, with some additional stress from Benjamin and Zoren, leaving a large space to fill in her stomach.

Even so, Penny didn’t serve herself much. She could always eat more once she got home. With that thought in mind, Penny ate her food slowly, savoring the taste. While Old Mrs. Pierson was talking, Penny continued to eat steadily. Before she knew it, her plate was almost empty.

’That’s enough, Penny. It’s okay. You can eat more later,’ she told herself, and then she slowly cut smaller pieces just to enjoy it a little longer.

"During my time, I also had to deal with troubled men..." Old Mrs. Pierson continued her story, barely touching her food. It was obvious she was enjoying talking to Penny more than eating. "But back then, men weren’t as open as they are nowadays..."

Penny smiled subtly, feeling a little disheartened as she glanced at the tiny piece of meat on her fork. She wanted it to be ten times bigger, but she didn’t want to embarrass herself.

"Hehe... yes, Grandma," she replied, keeping herself engaged in the conversation.

Zoren, on the other hand, raised his brows while observing Penny’s movements. Since their seats were right beside each other, he could see how her pace had slowed compared to a few minutes ago, and how her plate was almost empty.

Suddenly, he got a whiff of the strong gloominess coming from her.

’Does she want more?’ he wondered.

He fluttered his eyelashes and quietly drew a spare plate closer. He didn’t think much about what dish she might want and simply took the closest one to him. After slicing the meat and filling the plate, he cast Penny a quick glance.

She was still talking to Old Mrs. Pierson, her attention now entirely on his grandmother.

Without a word, Zoren took her plate.

His action caught her attention, but when Penny turned her head to him, all she saw was him placing another plate full of food in front of her.

’You...’ she glanced up at him, but his expression didn’t change in the slightest. ’Renren, I’ll protect you all your life!’

Hope and happiness swelled in her chest, and Penny quickly forked another piece of meat. Her cheeks turned red as her eyes gleamed, savoring the taste and then habitually forking out more slices of meat.

The servants watched this warm scene unfold until they noticed something peculiar.

Penny had been eating continuously, never once asking for seconds. However, they never saw her pause or stop eating gracefully. And yet, she never seemed to finish the food on her plate.

As they wondered what sorcery they were witnessing, their gaze remained on her plate.

The food on her plate was now half gone, and as they watched her fork another piece, they counted how many were left. But then, suddenly, just when they blinked, the portions doubled.

"!!!"

"Our Young Master truly cherishes his wife," one servant wept, moved to tears. _{ƒreewebηoveℓ.com}

Where was the food going?

"Back then, even if we had ten guests, I doubt they’d even finish half of this. But now..." The servants gulped together, noting that only about 40% of the food was left. Even if Penny couldn’t finish it all, she had already eaten so much!

"Fufufu~" The more Penny ate, the happier she became. With Zoren kindly refilling her plate, she was able to focus on Old Mrs. Pierson.

Old Mrs. Pierson, on the other hand, was simply glad at how well Penny was eating. "Hehe. My dear child wasn’t lying when she said she eats everything!" Her smile stretched. "How refreshing. Your husband used to hate food back then. Fortunately, he eventually found it in his heart to see that food is necessary."

"Hehehe." Penny just chuckled while chewing.

"This is good! I feel like I want to eat more if I have someone with a big appetite to eat with me!" Old Mrs. Pierson exclaimed, eating happily, a little surprised at how the food tasted ten times better than usual.

As for Zoren, he would simply take a bite from his plate before refocusing on feeding his wife. He didn’t show the slightest trace of stopping until Penny stopped him.

Meanwhile, the servants, who were still watching, couldn’t help but wonder what to feel. As they processed the situation, someone quietly blurted out,

"Is the Young Madam pregnant?"

The servant’s voice was very quiet, and she only intended to keep that question to herself. When she realized she had spoken her thoughts aloud, she quickly covered her mouth. Slowly, she watched as all the servants, including Butler Hubert, looked at her in shock.

Were they... expecting a little young master soon?
