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

205 She felt like a child

When Penny reached Butler Jen and Professor Singh, Butler Jen ushered the two of them to Charles' home office. Once they arrived, Penny was a little taken aback because her mother and her uncle were also in there.

Once everyone was seated with Penny between her parents and Professor Singh across from them, Professor Singh formally asked their permission to offer Penny the apprenticeship.

"I am aware Penny is very young and kids her age should be doing what other kids were doing at her age," Professor Singh expressed sincerely. "However, I simply think Penny is more mature and very smart for her age. And geniuses like her might find an interest in our study and

research more."

"I didn't mean to offend, but I actually reached out to the headmaster of the Academy regarding this. After all, Miss Penny mentioned she wanted to move up and finish her secondary education fast," he remarked. “Tve sent him a recommendation just in case. Although I know Penny's credentials are enough, it's better to be safe."

And also, to make sure Penny would reach her goal of graduating early. This was Professor Singh, and a personal letter from him to any level of education would be regarded highly.

Professor Singh sighed, seeing the look in Allison's and Charles's eyes. Even the usually composed Haines didn't seem like he knew how to react at this point.

This news would be great for other people; if Professor Singh came like this to any of the star students or anyone already in college about his field, they would not hesitate.

But these were the Bennets and the fact that they were only reunited with their real daughter explained the reluctance in their eyes.

"Professor Singh, I deeply appreciate your efforts and help," Charles expressed with a bitter smile. "Our family is grateful, and this news is just... it's amazing!"

He paused because, despite the pride in his voice, there was this reluctance. "As a father, even though I wasn't with her in the first decade of her life, I'm already very proud of her." He patted Penny's head mildly. "But at the end of the day, it's Penny's decision."
