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

159 Greed took her nowhere

"Patricia... where do you think this hand is going?"

Attacking someone with words was something anyone would let pass. Patricia might be harsh. with her words, but there were some truths in it, so many agreed with her. Patricia was, after all, a victim of a painful betrayal. But for everyone to see how she would suddenly raise a hand when Ginnie talked back, shook everyone to the core.

No one had seen that coming.

No one... except Penny.

How could Penny not? When Ginnie spoke up against her abuser for the first time? Hence, the abuser would intuitively try to regain control over her again. She had seen this many outside and especially inside prison.

Patricia froze for a moment as if a bucket of ice splashed her when realization dawned on her. She slowly moved her gaze and met Penny's, her breath hitching as she felt like Penny would break her limb by limb if she said the wrong word.

Her mouth opened and closed. Even the girls on her side couldn't speak because of Patricia's

actions.

What did Patricia think she was going to do so overtly?

"In other words, you're the pot calling the kettle black. Patricia, touch my people again and that's the last time you're ever gonna use it."

Another glint flickered across Penny's eyes as she slid them to her. "Back off. Don't make me repeat myself."

Patricia's heart thudded, gulping as she couldn't look away from the pair of eyes blazing with the fiery flames of hell. Even when Penny let her go, she kept her wide eyes on Penny.

"Patricia, let's just go," one of the girls approached her from the side. "Let's not mind them
