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

99 The culprit

"Lily, why?"

When the school bell rang, Lily, Penny, and Ginnie walked their way out of the building using the longer route. This time, they were taking this path not because of Penny, but because of Lily. Lily pursed her quivering lips as she looked at Ginnie. "I was a little angry and told myself I'd just tell him things nicely. But then, my mouth wouldn't stop!" She then clung to the little Penny for help. "Penny, am I dead?" Penny's face contorted as she thought about what Lily had told them. They wanted to ask her when she got back from the restroom, but their teacher arrived. During their self-study class, Lily was so distraught they didn't get an answer from her.

Lily only confessed when she asked them to take the other route.

"You'll be fine, I guess?" Penny laughed awkwardly.

"You guess? You're not sure?" Lily dramatically wept, her anxiety skyrocketing at the thought of Ray's wrath.

It wouldn't have been a surprise if the school already contacted her parents.

While Lily lamented, Penny couldn't help but sigh faintly. Her lips curled up, gazing at the poor girl with appreciation. Lily obviously knew the consequences of what she had done or said, but she said it anyway because of Penny.

'She did tell me she'd be loyal to me.'Her smile stretched, holding Lily's hand and then Ginnie's. "Penny?" Lily stopped her drama and looked at the plump hands holding her. Ginnie also gazed at her hand, her cheeks turning red. 'Penny has a soft hand."

"Let's not worry about that," said Penny. "If he is that bad, I'm sure the headmaster would've summoned you to his office. Moreover, I believe the headmaster will not kick you out just because you told his grandson the truth."

The fact that Ray was the headmaster's grandson was surprising. However, Penny didn't question It because, in her first life, she focused more on achievements to gain her brother's affection. Lily was barely appeased.

"Worse comes to worst. I'll testify!" Penny added reassuringly. "I'll ask my dad to stand up for me too. Or my uncle!"

and Ginnie couldn't conceal the look of doubt in their eyes. Penny's father and uncle? Wasn't she a scholar student,
