128 Seventh rule of the Be Family

 After all the patience and understanding Penny exercised toward this girl, Nina would still pull the same things repeatedly. Penny took a deep breath while the corner of her eyes sharpened.

 ‘Fine.”

 She didn’t care anymore. They could all side with Nina for all she cares. After all, she came into this household without any expectations. Even when they were giving her some warmth they had never given her before and the attention she only sought in her first life, Penny was used to being unwanted.

 Meanwhile, Haines balled his hand into a tight fist. Nina might be wearing this pitiful and distressed look, but the brief glint in her eyes didn’t go past Haines. He was about to open mouth when Charles pped his chest with the back of his hand.

 his

 Turning to Charles, Haines stepped back upon seeing the solemn look on Charles’s face. ‘He saw

 it‘ 

 “Butler Jen, please take Nina and tend to her wound. See if it needs a few stitches, Charles ordered quietly and Butler Jen quickly lowered his head.

 “Miss Nina, pleasee with me.” 

 Nina’s breath hitched and pursed her lips, but still nodded. She winced as she tried to get up,

 almost falling to her knees.

 “Butler Jen, can’t you see she can’t stand?” old madam Roswald roared..

 Butler Jen’s face crumpled in bitterness, but he still quietly reached out to help Nina. But before he could, Charles spoke.

 “Butler Jen, let her stand on her own.” 

 Butler Jen froze and turned to Charles, only to see the man of the house carry this dark look.

 “Allison and I might’ve raised our children with more freedom, but they were not pushovers.” Charles slowly set his sharp eyes on his mother–inw. “Mom, I respect you and Dad. However, Butler Jen is also my family. Please refrain from talking to him that way.”

 Old Madam Roswald scoffed while the old grandpa frowned.

 “I’m sorry, Dad, Charles cast his father–inw a look and lowered his head. “But this matter will

 be dealt with as a family.”

 “Family? Charles Be!” Old Madam Roswald growled at her son–inw’s audacity. “Now that you are in charge of the Be Family, do you think you can just talk to your inws like that?! Are you also disrespecting me now because of that brat?!”

 Allison red. “Mom! How can you say that to Charles?!”

 “Criselda, dear, you’re going out of line. This time, Allison’s father, Philip, joined to calm the situation. “Charles is right. This matter is something they should settle with.”

 even more defensive, Howe she was the only person in here who could see the situation? Although she preferred blood over bond, an ill–mannered child like Penny would only bring trouble in the future if not disciplined. This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.

 What she had seen now was enough for her to see the difference between Nina and Penny. One was raised by Allison and Charles, while the other was raised by a poor, uneducated woman.

 Penny looked up at the adults and her brothers that were in here. All of them carry this somber look, especially her brothers. She was unsure if they were disappointed with her, but she didn’t dwell on it. However, seeing that Charles was siding with her was a bit surprising. Her father respected his inws and exercised longer patience toward his inws than his own rtives.

 ‘It almost sounds like he’s taking my side…‘she thought, a bit happy by this.

 Although her father took her side in the past, Penny failed to see the depths of Nina’s schemes. Hence, in the end, Penny simply looked like she was making up reasons.

 Not in this lifetime, though.

 First impression <ists to the elders of the Be and Roswald.‘ Penny kept an upright posture as she moved forward, standing beside her father. Back then, I was trying hard to give a good impression. But in this life… my impression also matters. They should also think if they can impress me enough.”

 “Penny” Sensing Penny’s presence on his side, Charles gazed down at her. He squatted and smiled. “Penny, go with your brothers first. Mom and I will have to discuss some things with your grandmother.”

 That was As’s cue to speak. “Penny, let’s go. Listen to Dad.”

 Despite the looks on their faces, Charles and As toned down when they started talking to her. It made her smile subtly, but it didn’t change her mind.

 “Dad, it’s okay. I don’t want to cause any more misunderstanding if I leave now, Penny smiled sweetly at her father, but when she looked away, her smile disappeared. All that was left on Penny was thisyer of frost.

 Seeing how her expression changed, ter gulped nervously. ‘We should run,‘was the first thing that came into his mind upon seeing Penny’s change of expression. He had seen this side of her. Hence, it brought a feeling of panic to his heart.

 “Penny…” Nina smiled weakly. With her appearance, one would think she would faint at any second. Her heart thudded when Penny walked closer.

 Everyone furrowed their brows as they watched Penny stop in front of Nina. Their confusion, however, was quickly reced with shock at Penny’s action.

 “Don’t stand up,” said Penny coldly, and before Nina could process her words, a resounding p was heard.

 Everyone widened their eyes while some maids covered their gaping mouths. But the most surprised among all of them was Nina. Nina’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets and for a moment, she lost her sense of hearing. The p was so harsh that it took a few seconds before

 the pain came through. 

 Her cheeks throbbed and it wouldn’t be a stretch to say she felt her jaw moved a little out of ce. Nina touched her throbbing and now swollen checks.

 “Did you…..

 did you just p me?”

 Old madam Roswald gasped before her blood boiled in anger. “You brat –!” but before she could start barking, Penny’s cold and emotionless voice sliced through the air.

 “Seventh rule of the Be Family: don’t pick a fight you cannot win.”
