Chapter 872: You are going to die young.

"Bennets!" Lily grinned as she saw that all the Bennets were present. Her face brightened when she saw Slater and Hugo, who were always so reliable and supportive in situations like this! When she saw Mark, her mouth stretched even wider.

"Mark, you made it!" Lily rushed outside, stopping in front of Penny. "Penny, let's go in oh! Everyone's arriving one after another. Hi there~!"

Lily happily waved at the people approaching the gymnasium from a distance before turning her attention back to Penny.

"Penny, let's go in! I want you to see the venue and everything! There's even a mascot of you — it's so cute!" Lily exclaimed excitedly. "Let's go in! Let's go in!"

"Aight~!" Slater mused happily, bumping his shoulder against Atlas. "First Brother, let's go in!"

Atlas's expression froze, the weight of his decision finally sinking in. But before he could say anything, Penny suddenly hooked her arm around his. Slowly, Atlas turned to his sister, only to see her smiling.

"First Brother, I'm so thankful that you motivated me to come today," Penny said, smiling at him. "How about I be your muse today? Or should I make you my muse?"

"I was just teasing you," Atlas blurted out in panic, but Penny had already turned away from him to face Lily.

"Lily, show us around!" Penny said, which Lily happily agreed to. And just like that, Lily led them inside the gymnasium, with Penny still holding onto her first brother's

arm.

As soon as they all stepped inside, Slater's eyes sparkled when he saw Penny's face everywhere!

"Is this Heaven?" Slater wondered genuinely, looking around in awe. "Lily, you're amazing."

"She's a genius, indeed," Hugo nodded in satisfaction.

"Second Brother, look!" Slater tugged at Hugo's arm, pointing at the mascot. "There's a mascot over there! Let's show her your wings!"

Slater didn't wait for his second brother's response as he already dragged Hugo with him. Penny's and Atlas's faces twitched, both in disbelief at Slater's and Hugo's reactions. They were clearly Penny's biggest fans, unable to see what was wrong with the situation.

"Well, then, I'll welcome everyone! I told Miss Sandford that I'd wait for her. Even Penny's dad and uncle said they'd come, so I'll
