Penny sat down behind the desk to start her day. But before she could truly begin, her phone started ringing. Glancing at the screen, her face twisted slightly.
It was Atlas.
"Second Brother is right," she mumbled, reaching for the phone. "It's better to get this over with rather than prolong the suffering. What a busy morning, indeed!"
With that thought, Penny took a deep breath and answered the call. The moment she put the phone to her ear, Atlas's calm, cold voice greeted her.
"Zoren Pierson," he said. "You didn't tell me your date's name is Zoren Pierson, Penelope Bennet."
Deep lines formed between her brows; this wasn't what she expected to hear. "Uh… didn't he introduce himself?"
"I heard him say Zigzag Pierson," he explained, assuming Zoren also has a speech problem.
"..."
How was that her fault now?
