Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

32 Got my back?

The main reason Penny wanted to see Jessa was because she thought her aunt returned to her bad habits. When Penny was in the Cortez household, Jessa had always had an itch to gamble. But with Penny's activities and contests, her mahjong nights turned from daily to a few times a week to once a

week until it became once a month.

Penny was no longer in the household and nothing could keep Jessa busy any longer. The chances of Jessa going back to her bad habits were high, and that was why she was harassing the Bennets. But Penny realized she might be wrong.

"Of course! I made them myself and the twins helped a bit!" Jessa gloated before she quickly urged. "Come on, kids. Try them while they're still hot!"

The three nodded and hummed in unison.

Having said that, Jessa happily watched the three of them eat. Their twinkling eyes filled her with so much fulfillment and their eagerness to eat more reminded her of the good times. Jessa disliked staying in the kitchen, but these kids were so pitiful if she didn't feed them. Moreover, the three of them appreciate

everything she served them. Hence, she somehow found spending a bit of time in the kitchen quite enjoyable.

"This is so good..." Penny mumbled while chewing and

snuck a look at Jessa.

Seeing her auntie's mild reaction, her stiff shoulders relaxed. Penny was glad she was wrong about Jessa returning to her bad habits. Even so, why was Jessa harassing the Bennets? Butler Jen and Hugo, who were just around the food court, watched this unfold.

Halfway through the meal, there were more talks than eating as if they were stalling.
