Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 16

Chapter 16: Petty pranks

Barging into Atlas and Nina's studies wasn't in Penny's plan. But because of Nina's insistence, she ended up getting stuck with them. Well, it wasn't that bad. Penny planned to refresh her memory, and somehow, the problems Professor Singh gave to her were a good warm-up.

She could feel her brain working again.

With that thought in mind, she grabbed a book from the library and took it to the family room. But as soon as Penny sat on the couch, a farting noise was heard.

"Huh?" Penny frowned, moving her buttocks to the side, only to hear another farting noise.

"Tehee!"

Hearing a giggle not far away, Penny slowly moved her gaze to the person. There, peeking through the door, was the mischievous Slater.

"Penny, did you eat so much you can't stop farting?!" Slater came in with a devious grin. He waved a hand in front of his soured face and added, "No wonder it smells here!"

In her first life, Penny found this embarrassing. But now, this looked petty and a waste of breath.

"Slater, didn't you eat the same breakfast, lunch, and snacks as me?" Penny blinked. "Don't you feel your stomach turning too?"

"What?" The mischievous look on Slater's face died.

Penny bounced a little, letting the farting noise echo. She shook her head, telling herself she had no time to entertain Slater's stupid pranks. She lifted one side of her buttocks pulled out the Tap-and-Fart bag and placed it to her side.

Seeing that she was going back to her reading, Slater frowned.

"Mhmp!" He harrumphed, walking out of the family room in humiliation.

Penny peeked at him and shook her head. "This is why he doesn't have friends," she muttered, stopping as she gazed up at the ajar door.

"Now that I think about it, Slater is actually being picked on in school," she mumbled, recalling an incident in the past. Her lips curved down. "Even though I don't like him, I feel sorry for him."

In her first life, although her brothers and Nina went to the same school, the school was big. Their buildings were different from each other. Atlas and Hugo were popular students. Atlas might not be a top student, but he was smart enough to be a candidate to be a part of the special section.

If her memory served correctly, Atlas would enter the special section during his last year. Thanks to his resilience and Professor Singh's guidance.

Hugo, on the other hand, was handsome and athletic. His academics might be slightly average, but many wouldn't deny he could play any sport and ace it. Many major professional sports leagues were already poaching him, but he would enter the military as soon as he graduated.

As for Slater, he was neither good at sports nor in academics. Matter of fact, he was always at the bottom of his class. Although he had an angelic look, his grade had the most notorious elites in the entire school.

"Well. It's not like I've seen it before until that incident." She brushed it off. "He'll succeed in life anyway, so he'll be fine."

Penny went back to reading since Haines would come later with her laptop. She didn't want to waste it just waiting.

While reading, Penny heard some clattering noises outside. Looking up at the ajar door, her brows slowly came together. She checked what it was and saw Slater, covered with flour from head to toe. His face was all white. All she would see were his eyes, the holes in his nose, and his gaping mouth.

Penny was in disbelief. "???"

"Third Young Master! What are you — oh my god!"
