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

209 hope deeply and sincerely

Just as planned, the Bennet Family watched a movie together. However, five minutes in, and Atlas was already snoring. Hugo mocked his older brother, only to nod off ten minutes later. Charles and Allison chuckled and let their son sleep. Atlas and Hugo had been practicing all day, and they had admitted that today was the first time they saw Atlas sweat so much. Hence, they watched the movie until the end with Slater and Penny.

As usual, the couple kept Penny in between them. Slater lay beside Allison.

That was how they ended their day and also how they started their day.

At breakfast, however, Penny felt like she would have an indigestion. How could she eat when everyone looked like they were mourning?!

Didn't they have a conclusion last night?!

Why even Slater was frowning as if he just lost a pet or something?!

'That's it!' Penny sighed and looked at her parents, who shared the same mood as well. I can't take this anymore."

Penny cleared her throat, and since it was silence, everyone heard her clearly. She watched all of them set their eyes on her.

"I want to accept Professor Singh's apprenticeship proposal because I want to start my life early" she said calmly and adorably. "School is fun and I would cherish every memory I had in it: my friends, their silliness, and the little fun we found amid even the nerve-racking final exam week."

She paused and smiled. "I'll treasure them the same as how I will treasure all the memories I created in this house. With my family and with everyone in this house. Coming here, I didn't have a lot of expectations. I even prepared myself for the worst that I will not be accepted and that I will not be loved."

"But I was wrong" she continued. "Mom and Dad did their best to make me happy. First Brother might not say things always, but I know he always looks after me. Second Brother, on the other hand, is someone I know I can always rely on. And Third Brother... he is perfect the way he is."

"My family is not perfect, but... they're really warm and kind people who aren't ashamed of
