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

199 Stood up against his bully

The first day of the exam was exhausting, and everyone could tell that by the listless and haggard look of the Bennet children. O

Atlas, Hugo, Slater, and Penny couldn't even make it to their rooms as they melted on the couches in the living area. Their eyes were all blank. None of them was making the slightest sound. Even Butler Jen didn't know what to do!

"Kids?” Minutes later, Allison happily came in with a tray of sliced watermelons for her children. "Why don't you have some snacks first to recharge?"

She sat down on the couch where Penny was lying shamelessly. Looking down at Penny, Allison sighed.

"Penny, is the exam that hard?" she asked, but Penny just frowned.

"Mommy, why did no one tell me that snack times during exams are thirty minutes shorter?" Penny lamented. "I couldn't even enjoy my snacks because Lily and Ginnie were always in a hurry" a

Allison's brows rose, thinking Penny was just like her brothers because of the exam. But it seemed her daughter was more distressed at the fact that during exams, the school cut down their recess time, but added more intervals to avoid any problems that might occur during breaks.

"Well. How about some watermelons?" Allison offered her daughter a smile, bending over to get Penny a slice. Since Penny wasn't moving at all, Allison fed her and watched the spark of life return to Penny's eyes. "Mrs. Cortez and I bought it from the wet market."

"The wet market?"

Allison nodded. "She took me there, telling me that it's better to buy some stuff there. Also, she said you have a favorite stall to buy your watermelons."

"Wow..." Penny's eyes sparkled and this time, she quickly regained the energy back to sit up.

Allison chuckled, offering her daughter another slice to enjoy. Once Penny started munching, shel looked at her boys with a smile.

"Boys, you should also eat to recharge," she said. "It's a long and exhausting day, so give yourself some time to relax.

Hugo peeked at Penny, who was now happily eating some melons. "Penny, is it good?"

"It's the best!" Penny exclaimed as if she was the seller herself. "There's a watermelon stall my aunt and I used to shop for watermelons. They sell the cheapest but also the freshest

watermelons in town!"

As Penny promoted the watermelon like crazy, Atlas glanced at the slices on the table. Without saying a word, he reached out for a slice and took a bite.
