Atlas furrowed his brows, but just as his lips parted, Nina quickly jumped to his side.

"First brother, it's alright!" Nina smiled nervously before casting Penny a look. "Penny it's okay. First brother is talking about the notes we had to do in Mr. Anderson's class. But it's okay now. I can just ask Patricia for it.

"Nina, if Penny is already lending you her notes, why bother other people?" Atlas' frown deepened. "All I'm saying is, finish your notes next time. If others can finish it, so can you."

Hugo glanced at his brothers and shook his head. "I'm not in the mood.

"Second Brother..." Penny hummed. She didn't want to dwell on the thought that Hugo was avoiding Nina, but now she couldn't help it. "Are you avoiding Nina?" "No," his answer was quick, without a second hesitation. "I'm ignoring her." 2

"Why?"

More like what she said. "Don't worry about it. That's between me and her." Penny nodded because she also didn't want to meddle. "Okay" she said before she
