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

Penny stood frozen on the stage with wide eyes. Around fifty sign-ups for a fan club were considered little, but for her, that amount was huge! But this crowd? It was almost like the general assembly in school. Just what type of promotion Lily did do to make all these people sign up for her fan club?!

"Penny...!" Lily whispered from the side of the stage. "Speak"

Lily pointed at the microphone, signaling to Penny there was a mic for a reason.

What would Penny say?! This was akin to the school presidential election!

Penny glossed her eyes over the crowd, gulping, having this mild fright crawling into her heart. If others loved attention, Penny was the opposite. All she wanted was a peaceful school life - she didn't even plan to enter school this year and pass it by taking a heavy amount of exams.

This was not in her plans!

"Go, Penny-!"

Her eyes inevitably shifted to the person's vantage point. There, Hugo was standing with his team. He and his teammates were wearing headbands with her face glued to the strings attached to it. They were also holding up a banner with her name and their signatures on it.

'Oh, my god...'

As this sight of the school varsity team scared her, she coincidentally caught Atlas. He was standing not far away. With his stature, he stood out among the people around him. He was holding a stick with a flag on it, waving it mildly with a dead expression. The design of the flag was Penny's face!

'First Brother...! she mentally wept, feeling sorry for her first brother.

Lastly, she caught Slater's figure just right next to Atlas. Slater was wearing a shirt with Penny's name on it. Along with him were James and Slater's other former bullies. The three of them were wearing pink shirts with Penny's wide face printed on it.

Her brothers weren't the only people popular people in there. There were also quite a few people who had earned quite the reputation - good and bad - including some from the star section. The sight, the crowd, and everything were overwhelming. Moreover, why was there a group of students recording all of this?!

inner turmoil, seeing her brothers, who would willingly wear that tacky shirt, hold that ridiculous flag, and wear that headband, filled her heart with appreciation. Knowing her friends also spent day and night preparing for this day touched her heart more than the overwhelming
