Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 168

168 Not all parents deserve to be parents 

Looking at the small house where she saw Grace stopped, a shallow breath slipped past Penny’s nostrils

Grace is such a horrible liar,she commented in her heart. Why lie about her childhood? It didn’t seem like her mother left her be.‘ 

It was an irony that when Penny was still a free woman, she didn’t have people whom she could. call her friends. Even her colleagues weren’t her friends. But when she got into prison, somehow, she was able to call people her friends some, even family, like Grace

Grace was akin to her sister; they were cellmates halfway through Penny’s sentence

And in a place like the maximum prison, they could either talk to each other or fight or get thrown into solitary confinement

Aside from Grace’s sentence, Penny knew a thing or two about Grace. One of them was that Grace was abandoned by her mother, and then her father abused her. He abused her so much that Grace could only fight back and eventually end her father

It’s cruel, butI don’t want her to end like that,Penny sighed once more, telling herself she was being foolish. Not because Penny was lucky and was blessed to redo everything, doesn’t mean she could save everyone. However, she still wanted to try at least once

Penny?” 

Penny snapped out of her thoughts and looked back at her second brother. There’s nothing. Second Brother. I just saw someone, and I thought I knew her

Oh.” Hugo rocked his head in understanding. Okay. Let’s go back?” 

Mhm.” 

As they turned, Hugo carefully walked a step closer beside her. Penny, it’s not good for you to wander off to places you’re not familiar with. If I didn’t see you, everyone would be worried.” 

Hehe. Sorry!Penny averted the mild scolding with a sweet smile. It’s just that when I’m alone, I feel like older than everyone else.” 

It wasn’t like Penny couldn’t go home alone. Even if she got lost here, she knew how to find her. way home. But then again, in everyone’s eyes, she was an innocent thirteenyearold in the body. of a nineyearold

How frustrating

While they walked away from the post Penny hid behind, they suddenly heard loud voices behind them. Their steps slowed down and halted, turning on their heel to see what the ruckus was 

about

You fucking bitch! Now that you’ve grown, you think you can talk back to me now, huh?!” 

Deep lines appeared between Penny and Hugo’s brows as they saw the door of the small house fly open from the inside. Coming out of it was a man in a dirty tank top, where his bulging 

woman was trying to stop him

Stop it! No, not her!” 

Get off me, you stupid bitch!the man flung his arms away, making the middleaged woman fall back inside the door

You think you can do things on your own now, huh?!the man fumed at the teenage girl. Fine! You stupid bitch! You’re just like your mother. Get the fuck out of my house if you think you can now fight your father!” 

Let go of me!” Grace screamed while grabbing her father’s wrist. I said let go! I’m going to call the police ” 

Before Grace could finish her sentence, her body flew across the unfurnished wall across from 

their house

Ah!she yelped, and she winced, her back hitting the wall violently

This stupid little bitchthe man scoffed, his eyes blazing while glaring down at her. You should be grateful that I took you in, even though you’re not mine! I should’ve known you and your stupid mother are useless!” 

He lifted his feet and kicked Grace to vent his anger. However, his feet landed on someone else. Stopping, he shifted to the person who took the hit. His face twisted in rage, raising his feet to kick the mother more

You want to be beaten so badly? Sure! I’ll give it to you today!” 

Mom!Grace yelled as her mother curled up on the ground and quietly took the beating. Stop that! I said stop that!” 

Graceher mother peeked at her through the gaps between her arms. It’s okay. Just be quiet 

ah!” 

Just as Grace was about to jump at her socalled father, another person turned up on her father’s side. Her father stumbled down on the side, caught off guard. Shifting her gaze to the person, all she saw was a young man staring down at her father furiously

Are you okay?Penny came to Grace’s side, scanning her worriedly

When Grace faced Penny, her brows furrowed. The look on Penny’s face was akin to someone who had just witnessed a family member get maltreated for the first time

What are you doing here?Grace blurted out because this kid wasn’t the person she expected who would come to her rescue. They didn’t even know each other until now

Who who the hell are you?!the man bellowed at Hugo
