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

94 Straight from the pits of hell

Thursday rolled in once more without a hitch. Penny started her day normally, but for some reason, she couldn't help but notice everyone in the Bennet Mansion was strange.

Everyone felt like they were being overly nice to her. It wasn't like they weren't nice to Penny, but their niceness had this distinct feeling that Penny couldn't ignore.

She asked Butler Jen, but Butler Jen just said, "It was a good day"

And so Penny didn't dwell on it and went into their school van.

On their way to their school, Penny sat frozen in her seat.

'Why do I feel like I'm in danger? she wondered as she discreetly looked at her brothers. When she did, Slater was looking away while Atlas was reading a book. Hugo, on the other hand, was just staring at the window.

'Did I imagine it?' she asked herself. I thought they were looking at me."

Penny shrugged and set her eyes on the window again. She was thinking about James' report this morning. James had become an early bird in school and was one of the very first students who arrived an hour before class.

'He said there didn't seem any plans for today, or at least, nothing is happening in my classroom," she thought, a little doubtful that James was messing with her. It's only a day since this prank started. They couldn't just give up after a day..."

Penny's thoughts trailed off as she felt this intense gaze from her back and side. She quickly. turned her head, but her brothers were minding their own business.

'Oh, my god.'Penny felt horrified as she looked away. Am I being haunted? I feel like evil spirits are targeting me!' a

While Penny was jumping to the conclusion she was being a little paranoid, her brothers slowly shifted their intense gaze back to her. In their minds, they were giving her attention and time. Was this enough?

Penny shrunk in her seat as she tried to ignore the intense gaze on her. She would glance at her brother from time to time, but she would catch them either doing something else or smiling at

her.
