Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157: Back off

"My aunt says food isn’t to be wasted. Moreover, if my aunt finds out someone spilled their juice on my food, she’ll come at you. You’re welcome."

After the incident was "slightly" settled in the headmaster’s office, Penny stayed away from Nina as far away as possible. She hadn’t even seen her since. For her, not seeing Nina or being far away from the girl would save her sanity.

Nina proved that she was not worth her consideration.

However, watching this unfold right before her eyes incited curiosity from Penny.

Nina continued eating the food from her lunch box despite the juice that spilled on it. The most surprising of all was what she said.

"Aunt Jessa, indeed, hates it when we waste food," she mumbled. "And she’ll come at these children if she heard what they did."

Her face crumpled in dismay, thinking that Nina’s food was being wasted by some kids. Did they know just how delicious and precious Jessa’s lunch boxes were?!

’Aunt Jessa packed me all sorts of food, but I’ve run out of them...’ Her heart felt heavy at the thought, which explained her displeasure at the drama unfolding before her eyes. Even so, Penny didn’t want to bother and put herself in the situation.

It could be that this was just one of Nina’s new schemes. Since everything Nina had done didn’t work, she was probably trying this new approach.

"Penny?" Lily furrowed her brows because Penny rose from her seat.

Penny smiled at her and Ginnie. "Let’s just eat somewhere."

Lily and Ginnie assessed Penny’s round face before they nodded. They carried their trays and quietly walked away.

Meanwhile...

"Did you hear that?" one of the girls standing beside Nina’s table turned to her friend. "She said her aunt will come at us?"

"Pfft —"

"Nina, why are you making a big deal out of this?" another girl commented. "We already said we’re sorry. Why bring up your aunt here?"

’That’s not what I meant.’ Nina’s mouth opened, but then she pressed them into a thin line. ’You’re twisting my words...’

Just like how Nina would twist her words before all of this ever happened.

"What do you think your aunt will do if you tell her about it, hmm? Will she come here and grab our hair just like what you did to Patricia?"
