Chapter 68: This girl needs to go
In the middle of their session with Professor Singh, Penny excused herself to find Butler Jen.
"Butler Jen," Penny called as soon as she saw Butler Jen talking to the in-house chefs in the kitchen.
Butler Jen turned his head and smiled as soon as he saw Penny. "Yes, Miss Penny?"
"Hello, Miss Penny," the in-house chefs greeted their favorite child in the house.
They loved Penny even though they had to add portions of everything because of her big appetite. Even so, watching her enjoying everything they make only gives them more motivation to cook and even explore some dishes.
Penny smiled back at the chefs and greeted them back before she reached Butler Jen. "Butler Jen, did my dad and Uncle Haines come back?"
"No, Miss Penny. But they’re probably on the way. After all, they just visited your grandparents."
As soon as Penny heard that, her smile stiffened.
Grandparents...
Penny could barely hide her discomfort at the thought of her grandparents from both sides. In her previous life, her grandparents were very enthusiastic about meeting her. So, after their incessant nagging, her parents agreed to introduce Penny to them.
At first, everything was going well until it wasn’t.
Penny lowered her eyes, remembering how even their relatives often tell her Nina was a much better fit as a Bennet than her. Some of them couldn’t blame Penny, but they didn’t spare her from telling her she had a bad upbringing because she was raised by other people.
