36 He got it all wrong! 36 He got it all wrong! "Dad, that is a weird-looking 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.

"That... that'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?" 10:20) 141 36 He got it all wrong! Curious, Atlas also lowered his head to examine the little animal inside.

Their family never kept pets for sreason. 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 cand 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 exotic..." Atlas 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! 18:26 36 He got it all wrong! 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 a... a 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 a 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." 18:20 36 He got it all wrong! As soon as those words rolled out of Atlas's mouth, Penny's cheerful voice cin.

"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 hideous- looking 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 1.12 30 He got it all wrong! "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 seetoo?!"

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 voice wouldn't cout.

"Uh... hehe. Penny... I..." his face crumpled before he sighed deeply. "Yes, but it's not that cute." 36. He got it all wrong!

"Yey! It's okay, papa! Even a secondhand is fine as long as it's working!" Penny cheered happily, looking at Hugo and Butler Jen. The two of them smiled back at her, knowing she wanted a mouse because she found it hard to use the touchpad. "Penny, you can now scroll through the web easily," said Hugo as if congratulating her.

Butler Jen also nodded with an amicable smile. "I told you, Miss Penny. Sir Charles is quick to fulfill his promise." Penny grinned from ear to ear and faced everyone again. Much to her surprise, everyone's initially awkward look quickly turned to confusion.

"Secondhand?" Haines blurted out under his breath.

'Even pets? She prefers secondhand?' "Scroll... through the web?" Atlas breathed out, confused.

Everyone looked at Penny incredulously before it hit them.

Mouse...

She wasn't talking about the living creature. Meaning, 36 He got it all wrong! it didn't matter how big or small or how cute or ugly Charles got for her. He got it all wrong! Haines covered his mouth and closed his eyes, feeling sorry for Charles.

When everyone's eyes were on Charles, all they saw was his soul slowly slipping away from his mouth. Penny, Hugo, Butler Jen, and even Tana, who was on Hugo's shoulder, tilted their heads to the side. "Penny..." Allison laughed nervously.
