Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 125

125 Don’t like this situation 

The mere idea that Nina could be this cruel put Penny in a tight spot. Not because this scared her, but because she was worried about some people. Those people were none other than her parents. Her brother might not believe her and simply tell her she was jealous of Nina, but this would hurt Allison and Charles. 

Whether they believe Penny or give her the benefit of the doubt, it would hurt them either way. One reason was that they might think they were not giving Penny enough attention that she had to resort to accusing Nina. On the other hand, if she had proven that Nina did such a terrible. thing, they would blame themselves for not raising them right. 

Penny balled her hands into tight fists as this weighed in her heart. 

“What a dilemma, she whispered. “I can just throw this evidence away and act as if nothing happened.” 

If she knew the culprit, she would be able to be careful of them. This time, she would be extra careful after realizing what Nina was capable of. 

“But alas… some people were wrongly accused and are paying a heavy price for someone else’s crimes. Her face twisted in bitterness, getting angrier at the thought. 

Just then, Tiana finally reached her and landed on the study desk. 

“Tiana, what am I going to do?” she whispered. “I’ve met people in prison who were wrongfully accused, just like me. But they were still treated as criminals just because that’s what our sentencing says.” 

If there was anyone who knew how painful and terrible it was to be wrongfully accused, that would be Penny. So, the thought that Ray’s fans were dealing with the consequences of Nina’s actions made her stomach turn. At the same time, Penny also had to think about her parents. 

This wasn’t 

about Nina anymore, but the people who were around them and the people who were involved. 

“I don’t like this situation, Tiana,” she sighed, folding her arms over the table while resting her chin on her arms. “It makes me angry that Nina put me in this tricky situation.” 

What a dilemma. 

Penny stayed in her room to think about her next course of action. She hadn’t decided even when the twins knocked on her room, telling her they had to go home. So, throwing the dilemma. at the back of her mind, Penny sent her cousins and auntie away. 

Once they left, the family had dinner shortly. 

While having a meal, Penny couldn’t help but stay quiet while thinking about the culprit behind

the flowerpot. Glancing at Nina, she was happily chatting with Allison and Charles. Her brothers. were the same as usual. 

“And then, Penny has a suitor!” Nina blurted out amid her endless prattle, causing this immediate silence in the room. 

Deep lines appeared between her brows because her brothers were now looking in her direction. “Uhm… Penny hadn’t told you yet?” 

“What?!” Charles gasped in disbelief. “Someone’s pursuing my Penny?! this guy?!” 

Who lo 

“Penny, is this true?” Atlas asked Penny, watching everyone shift their eyes from Nina to Penny. 

Much to their surprise, Penny didn’t react. She simply kept her eyes on Nina, making everyone wonder what was going on in her mind. 

“Oh, sorry, Penny. Nina laughed nervously. “I thought you already mentioned, but I swear Penny isn’t entertaining him! She rejected him!” 

“I bet she did!” Charles remarked and briefly stopped when he saw Haines walking in the dining room. “Oh, Haines, you’re back?” 

Haines rocked his head, noticing the tension in the air. “Is there a problem?” he asked as he took a seat around the table. 

“Well, Nina just said someone was courting Penny in school, Slater muttered. “Penny didn’t mention it before.” 

“Someone?” Haines frowned. Looking at Penny, he was immediately displeased at this boy, who was trying to pursue his adorable niece. Couldn’t they see Penny was still a baby? 

“Penny, who is this guy courting you?” Hugo asked out of pure curiosity. “I know you already rejected him and it’s not relevant to whether we know him or not. But… just in case, someone needed a warning to back off. 

Curious, everyone waited for Penny’s response. Unfortunately, she wasn’t reacting and just blatantly stared at Nina. 

“Penny, I didn’t mean to say it,” Nina muttered apologetically. “I thought you already mentioned this. I’m sorry. Please don’t misunderstand” 

Penny blinked and slowly scanned the faces around her. “It’s Ray 

“Ray?” the brothers furrowed their brows before a sudden realization dawned on them. 

Earlier this week, they heard that the rank two of the star section was pursuing a girl from thus, Ray’s reputation.

Since the Bennet Brothers aren’t that keen on school gossip, they didn’t investigate further. Who would have thought that the girl Ray was pursuing was their little sister? 

Hugo’s and Atlas’s faces darkened, while Slater couldn’t hide in dismay. Their parents and even
