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

"Pe

Penny?" Nina meticulously wiped the remaining tears from the corner of her eyes and timely hiccuped. "Penny, what are you doing here?"

Penny's expression was blank while carrying the tray. Nina's eyes fell on the tray and mentally smirked.

'Did she bring me snacks to appease me?'

"Nina." Penny's voice was low and for some reason, her tone alone caused the temperature to drop. When Nina lifted her eyes to her, her body intuitively stiffened as if it sensed immediate danger. "This game you're playing..." said Penny as she took a step forward.

Nina intuitively took a step back but then stopped. She held her feet still and sported a brave look. Hence, Penny eventually got closed until the tray between them was touching their stomach. When Penny leaned forward and whispered in her ear, a sense of dread crept up her spine. Penny's voice was even more quiet, but

she felt the bloodlust laced in it.

"... is not a game you'd like to play. You have a lot of things to lose. I have none. Do this again and don't blame me for being ruthless." Penny slowly drew her head back. Her naturally adorable face paled in comparison to the coldness and ruthlessness in her eyes. "Consider yourself warned, Nina Reed. This is the first and last you're going to touch this family."

After saying her piece, Penny turned around and strode off.

Nina, who was left frozen, held her breath until her neck turned taut. She slowly balled her hands into a tight fist until her knuckles turned white. Glaring at the door, she clenched her teeth and slammed it closed.

"Reed?" Nina scoffed, her face turning red in indignation. "How

dare she...!"

Nina ran to her bed and buried her face on the pillow to muffle her scream. When that wasn't enough, she angrily beat the pillow while imagining it as Penny.

"I knew it! How dare you call me a Reed?! I'm a Bennet! The only daughter of Allison and Charles Bennet!" she punched the pillow until she was panting and exhausted. "It's your fault! You should've died with your mother!"

Nina clasped the pillow and ground her teeth. What Penny said didn't scare her, but rather, it only made her even more angry. That attitude Penny showed her was something she had never shown since stepping into Nina's territory.

"Haha." A wicked laugh escaped Nina as a malevolent glint flickered across her eyes. "Does she think just because I'm being sent away, I can't do anything? Penny Reed, you are the one who shouldn't be in this place in the first place. If not for you, this wouldn't have happened."

The roots of the seed of hatred in her heart slowly wrapped around her heart. "Soon, I'll be back here once I uncover your real
