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

Penny became Professor Singh's apprentice in her first life. Therefore, she knew some sides of this professor, just like how Professor Singh knew some sides of her. He was akin to a father to her, after all, nurturing her and guiding her. Sometimes, he would give her some tough love.

In other words, Professor Singh often finds out things even before Penny confesses or even before she does it. It was the reason she intuitively panicked when Professor Singh gave her that look. But then, Professor Singh smiled and asked gently. "Miss Penny, how are you?"

Hearing his smile and the change in his tone, Penny mentally patted her chest. She heaved a sigh of relief.

'Goodness. Right. In this lifetime, I'm still not his apprentice, so no tough love and scolding. There's nothing to be scared of."

"I'm okay, Professor. I've started school." Penny quickly recovered from her mini heart attack and smiled charmingly.

"I see. How is it so far?"

"Hmmm. Good!" Penny grinned brightly before she turned her head. Her smile briefly disappeared when she faced Slater. "Study." "Yes, ma'am." Slater didn't even refute and just hung his head low, answering the question he was answering before Professor Singh arrived.

Seeing this, Professor Singh chuckled. Atlas briefly mentioned

Slater's part of the bet, and seeing that Penny was with him, he quickly understood Penny was tutoring him. The professor was less worried that Slater would end up a slave with such a genius.

tutor.

If only Slater knew how lucky he was to be tutored by his sister.

"Miss Penny, did you answer the question I gave you the last time?" he asked quietly so as not to disturb the other brothers.

Penny nodded, but then cautiously glanced at Atlas. Seeing that her brother was busy answering with earplugs on, she handed a notebook with both her hands.

Professor Singh almost chuckled at how cute she handed her the notebook as if she was making an offering. He didn't dwell on it though, checking the content inside the notebook. Her handwriting was beautiful and clean without any traces of inkless notes that would indicate she tore the page before this.

As Professor Singh skimmed the solution, his lips curled up. He glanced at Penny, only to see Penny blink at him. He knew she was trying to wink, but failed.

'Don't tell.' Penny raised a finger in front of her lips and Professor Singh nodded in understanding.

The problem Professor Singh gave Penny during their last session was the same one he gave Atlas and the rest of the star student section. It was a problem that the academy wouldn't give because this was an actual problem in the research department that was given in the national exam last year, which no one had answered.
