Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 109

Chapter 109: Just give her up for adoption!

[Cortez Household]

Jessa, the twins, and her husband sat quietly in the dining room. The air was still and nearly suffocating.

"Mom..." Yugi called, his expression dark. "Why did you make an effort to cook for that kid?"

Yuri also couldn’t hide her disappointment, glancing at the empty seat around the table. "I’m starting not to like her now."

The man of the house, Lester, also looked at his wife. But unlike the displeasure of the twins, he was more scared of his wife.

Not long ago, they had prepared a small birthday celebration for Nina. Sadly, Nina didn’t like it and threw a huge tantrum, telling them she was tired and would rather stay in her room. They waited for her in case she changed her mind, but it was already late. _{freёweɓnovel.com}

"Hah." Jessa pinched the bridge of her nose, her reaction was calmer than what her husband expected. "That kid... she’s starting to show her fangs now, huh?"

"Mom..." Yuri called, a little worried about what would happen now.

Although the family knew that Jessa wasn’t as bad as others saw her, they also knew she had some anger issues in the past. What Nina said was hurtful and harsh, the disdain in her eyes was offensive, and how she stomped her feet was truly baffling.

Initially, Nina acted like a damsel in distress. But the longer she stayed, the more Nina showed how awful her character was. She always complained just about anything. It was perhaps because Nina figured out that Jessa wouldn’t hurt her, so she got cocky.

"Wife, you should calm down." Lester reached out for Jessa’s hand. "The food was great and we enjoyed it very well. Why not pack some and send it to Penny? I’m sure she’ll like it."

"Dad is right, Mom." Yuri nodded. "Don’t think of Nina anymore. Let’s just pretend we’re celebrating Penny’s birthday and treat ourselves to a feast."

Yugi scrunched up his nose. "Easy for you to say that. If Penny is here with us, it’ll be a lot more fun. I couldn’t even enjoy the meal because of that little demon."

The more Yugi thought about it, the angrier he felt.

"Mom, why would you even invite that omen to our house?!" Yugi hissed, forgetting the main reason they encouraged their mother to take Nina away from Penny’s territory. "We might’ve saved Penny, but I’m afraid we’d end up miserable. Just give her up for adoption!"

"Yugi, don’t say that." Lester clicked his tongue, although he was a little swayed.

Compared to Penny, Nina was truly an ungrateful child. She often clicks her tongue and makes faces every mealtime with them. Those weren’t the only jarring traits about Nina because everything that girl does, it was full of spite.

Nina didn’t have to say some other things. They all could read her in one glance.

They disgusted her. In her eyes, they were inferior to her, and thus, everything they would do was something she would never appreciate.

Lester gazed at his wife in worry. ’Nina sounds just like what that woman.’

No.
