Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 37

37 No need 

Your dadseemed to have misunderstood 

something.” 

What misunderstanding could it be?Penny wondered, glossing her eyes over the faces in front of her

All of them carried this strange look that had a mix of disbelief, shame, and everything. It tickled her 

curiosity

At the same time, Butler Jen noticed the tip of the cage peeking out behind Haines. He stretched his neck out of curiosity, squinting as he saw something inside

An otter?he blurted out quietly, but with the silence, his confused voice was clearer than it should be.

An otter?Hugo repeated, eyes at Butler Jen

Butler Jen gazed at Hugo and then at Penny before shifting his eyes to the rest of the family

It’s not an otter,” Haines sighed helplessly, glancing at 

Charles to let the man explain

At this point, Charles’s spirit already hit rock bottom

He looked at Penny apologetically, retrieving his hand from Atlas and Slater

It’s a mouse,Charles confessed as he reluctantly stepped away, granting Penny and Hugo a glimpse of what was behind them

Hugo and Penny intuitively shifted their eyes to the large cage and the animal inside. They looked at it emotionlessly, blinking, trying to figure out what it 

was

A baby elephant?Hugo guessed, and at the same time, Penny also spoke. Chinchilla?” 

Atlas’s and Haines’s faces twitched at Hugo’s guess

A baby elephant?Atlas couldn’t help but repeat in dismay. Did his brother secretly have eye problems

Charles sighed helplessly and squatted down to Penny. Penny, I’m sorry. I don’t know what came to me and misunderstood it.” when Penny asked, Tiana was at 

the table with her, after all

Don’t worry. I’ll get it right next time.” 

Penny smiled and said, No need.” she didn’t want to risk it again

rounder

Hearing her response, Atlas and Slater frowned. Their dad tried his best. Was getting her the wrong thing that big of a deal for her not to give him a second 

chance

Haines and Allison, on the other hand, raised their brows, eyes fixed on Penny

Nina, on the other hand, secretly smirked

Penny, don’t be like that,” Nina spoke hesitatingly. “Even if you’re upset that Dad got you the wrong gift, you can’t just ignore his efforts. It’s still a gift and you should still be grateful.” 

That’s right!Slater harrumphed, but unlike the usual

he didn’t fan the flames. Dad still did his best.” 

Atlas didn’t say a word, but he was also displeased that Penny would be so heartless not to give their father 

another chance

Moreover, you should have said everything in detail to avoid this,Nina continued, sensing that her sibling’s

eyes veered to Haines, she flinched at the coldness. flickering in them

it was 

Haines might not be that close to her, but he never looked at her so cold and distant. But right now

as though he was looking at an enemy

Nina pursed her lips, feeling this turmoil in her heart boil. Haines was like this because of Penny, she thought

Uncle Haines will soon realize I’m simply showing her true colors,she convinced herself. Hence, even 

though Haines’s cold gaze scared her, she ignored him. So, in a way, it’s partly your fault-” 

Nina,this time, Hugo spoke. His tone was firm and cold while his eyes carried dissatisfaction. If you 

weren’t family, I would think you’re sowing discord between Penny and us.” 

Huh

Nina’s complexion turned pale as she looked at her second brother blankly. No, that’s notSecond Brother, I’m just trying to make Penny understand.”

defended gently, offering Nina a kind smile. And even if she will be, I disagree that it’s her fault” 

That’s right.” Charles nodded and sighed. Penny’s not at fault here. I was too distracted when I asked her, so 

it’s all my fault.” 

Charles forced a smile as he moved closer to Penny and held her chubby hands. Penny, Papa is really sorry, I will do better. I promised!” 

Papa, there’s no need for that because you already. did.Penny smiled, ignoring Nina because she was a waste of breath. However, she still made a mental note to put her in her place later

Penny clasped Charles’s hand and sweetly said, I don’t want a mouse anymore because that one is a hundred. times better!whatever that was

Thank you, Papa! You’re the best!she added to make him feel better

The sadness in Charles’s eyes slowly melted away at her soft appearance. Relief surged in his heart, but also, a little worried that she was simply saying this not to make him feel bad

Knowing his father’s overthinking habits Hugo spoke

Penny meant that, Dad.”
