CHAPTER 33
33 No one would believe it
happened
Jessa spent the day shopping for herself with the three children carrying her items. The twins and Penny looked like her little assistant. She bought so much that even Butler Jen and Hugo had to carry some of
them.
Walking behind Jessa, the children hugged boxes that almost reached their heads.
“Penny, how was your new school?” asked Yuri Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
curiously. “Is it a nice school?”
“Hmm… I haven’t gone to my new school.”
“But why?” Yugi, who was walking on Penny’s other side, was confused. “You didn’t go to school the entire winter? Is that possible?”
Supposedly, Penny should’ve been transferred to her new school a week after she got into the Bennet’s Mansion. But with Penny’s academic achievements and her parent’s connection, Penny was able to skip the
entire winter.

“Because I’m smart. Hehe. She giggled, her eyes
curving into a crescent moon.
The twins pouted. “How nice to be smart you can skip school.”
“Oh! I forgot the snacks! They’re in my pockets!” Penny exclaimed, moving her big hips to the side as if to show which pocket she was referring to.
“Penny we just ate and your skirt has pockets?” Yugi, who was standing on that side, gazed at her ruffled pink dress. Her dress was pretty and despite Penny being small and wide, she looked cute in it.
“The pockets are the reason I wore it. Come on.”
Penny kept moving her hips sideways almost like she was dancing.
“Ah, wait.” Yugi carefully held his mother’s purchase on his arm, keeping them balanced while his other hand went through her pockets. He felt some wrappers inside, pulling it along with the pocket.
Yuri tilted her head to see what Penny got for them.
“Candies?”
“My Second Brother got them for me and he wants me

to share it with my cousins!” Penny purposely raised her voice for Hugo to hear. It was much better to give the guy the credit. Unfortunately, Hugo didn’t hear it.
The twins glanced back, only to see Hugo and Butler Jen quietly following from a really wide gap. They were so far they never felt their presence at all.
“That brother?” Yuri inquired as the twins assessed Hugo up and down.
Hugo was lean and quite tall. He was only in a loose white shirt and pants, but his gait was enough for the two he wasn’t like any of those young delinquents they
see.
“Tch. So what?” Yugi felt bitter. “You can have them,
Penny.”
“Hugo, that is Penny’s brother’s gift to her, meaning it’s already hers.” Yuri pouted but didn’t care much about her evil twin brother. “Penny, are you sure you’re giving this to us?”
Nope.
It took a lifetime of courage and a lot of nail–biting for Penny to survive the night without eating them.

“Of course,” she lied on her teeth. “I actually saved them for – **
“Ah!”
Suddenly, Yugi lost his balance and all of Jessa’s purchases fell. At the same time, they heard a loud screech that overpowered Yugi’s faint sound. Everyone froze for a second as they watched everything scatter on the floor.
“Oh, no,” Yuri blurted out in horror. “Those are
mom’s…”
“Are you blind!?”
Yuri, Penny, and even Yugi jolted when an angry roar clapped in their ears. Shifting their horrified gaze from the mess to the owner of the angry voice, their eyes landed on a young girl around their age.
“Look what you’ve done!” the girl screamed while pointing at her shoes.
The three instinctively lowered their eyes to figure out what made her so angry. When their gaze landed on the girl’s shoes, a drop of juice was on them.
“Oh, sorry,” Yugi still acknowledged his mistake and

quickly bent down. “I didn’t mean it, but I’ll wipe it –”
“Get away from me, you peasant!” the girl kicked Yugi’s chest away, making the boy fall on his bottom. The kick was so unrestrained Yugi’s chest tightened.
“Hey!” Yuri yelled and rushed to Yugi’s side. She looked at him in dismay and when she gazed up, her eyes were fiery. “Why would you kick him like that? He already apologized!”
“Because of him, I spilled my juice on my shoes! And then, he plans to wipe them with his dirty hands! Are
you crazy?!” @
Yuri and Yugi were so appalled by such a display of unreasonable attitude they were out of words. They thought their mother was already the worst when she was angry. But this kid was making a fuss over a drop of juice on her shoes.
“Little Miss, we’re really sorry about this. I know it’s our fault, but…” Penny trailed off, thinking how much the girl’s shoes could cost. She still has a little bit of money, but it was just a drop!
She frowned at the thought. “It was just a drop. Why are you making such a big fuss? You’re like my

brother.”
“Big fuss?!” the young girl fumed even more. “Do you
know how much these costs?!”
“We’re kids. How do we know?” Yugi clicked his tongue
in irritation.
The girl’s face already started turning red in agitation. One could tell she was quickly reaching her boiling point and was about to erupt when a voice suddenly
called her.
“Patricia.”
The girl’s face stiffened and, as if magic, a sweet smile suddenly appeared on her face. When she turned around, the angry howl disappeared, replaced by a
sweet call.
“Brother Theo-!”
The three were almost amazed at how quickly the young lady’s anger subsided. They glanced at the big brother Theo and only saw a seventeen–year–old
approach.
“What’s going on here?” asked the boy and the three

were graced with the most spectacular acting they had ever seen in their life.
“That boy is carrying too much stuff, so he ended up bumping into me and my juice fell on my shoes.” The girl kept a sweet and angelic smile. “He tried to wipe my shoes, but I told him it’s not necessary.”
As if afraid the three lowlives would start disputing her claim, Patricia clung to his arm–and said, “It’s settled now. Brother Theo, we should go. We already understood the situation and settled it.”
“Oh.” Theo gazed at them through his thin glasses and nodded. He offered the three a smile and, without saying anything, they strode off.
“What in the world is that?” Yugi gasped while the other two were simply too shocked to say a word. “Does she have multiple personalities? That change is quicker than the Flash.”
“Kids, what’s going on…” At the same time, Jessa came back after she noticed her little apprentices were gone. Her worry, however, immediately disappeared when she saw what was on the floor. “Oh, my god!”
Butler Jen and Hugo also came back after Hugo saw a

friend, while Butler Jen had to run after Tiana. Seeing the scene, they finally decided to approach them after staying at a distance from the beginning,
Jessa naturally made a huge fuss about it and picked up everything in a hurry. Penny and the twins looked at each other, knowing what they just witnessed now was like magic, no one would believe them if it even happened.
