“Penny!”

“Penny?! Come out! I know you’re there! Come out now while I’m being nice!”

Penny hid behind a long line of bushes in the garden with a sour expression. ‘Being nice? I can feel your anger from a mile away!‘ she mentally hissed, hugging Chunchun to make sure her cat wouldn’t give away their location. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Penny could’ve run straight to the gates, but she knew Atlas well. The guards would’ve stopped her from going out, and she didn’t want to hurt anyone. 1

“I just want to go out for some fresh air,‘ she mentally wept. ‘Why are they even awake at this

hour?”

Except for the Bennet children, everyone in the mansion should’ve been sleeping. Ever since Penny returned home, she had gotten used to everyone’s schedule. It wasn’t any different from before, frankly. The only difference was that there were times her brothers came home late, Hugo especially.

Slater often came home past midnight, so it was no surprise he had just arrived. As for Atlas, whenever he came home late, he would head straight to his room. But when Atlas came home early, like today, he would go up to his room after dinner and never come out again.

Why did he come out tonight?

It would have been much better if it was Slater who found her. In that case, she wouldn’t have had a hard time knocking him out, dragging him to his room, and cleaning up all the evidence.

Meow.

Penny’s breath hitched as she lowered her head, hushing Chunchun. She then glanced up, sensing Atlas’s approaching presence.

‘Did he hear Chunchun?‘ she wondered. ‘Or did he not?”

Why was Penny so bad at playing games like this?!

The last time she remembered sneaking out, she was also found! Although at that time, Charles had actually saved a life, and the results were better, this situation was different. She knew Atlas

wouldn’t save a life!

Penny pressed her lips into a thin line and looked at Chunchun. She quietly and carefully crawled away from her spot, finding the secret broken fence to get herself out. At this second, Penny didn’t even know why she was looking at the broken fence when she knew she wouldn’t fit through it.

“I think it’s around here…”

“Penny?!”

Penny froze and quickly shrunk into the darkness of the shrub, holding her breath as she caught Atlas looking over the bush at the spot where she had initially hidden.

Atlas looked annoyed now before he walked away. “That girl… she should be banned from all bars and nightclubs. Hugo’s gonna be in trouble.”

Penny’s face scrunched up, realizing how silly she was becoming. She didn’t need to sneak out, right? All she had to do was act normal, walk down the stairs, and tell Butler Jen she was going for a walk. If Slater wanted to come, she would just run so he wouldn’t catch up.

Yet, she didn’t realize that until now.

“Uhh… now I feel sober,” she whispered, touching her head mildly. She then snapped her eyes at the fence beside her. “I know it’s supposed to be here. I guess Dad really had it fixed, and Butler

Jen maintained it”

It had been twelve years since then. Therefore, she shouldn’t have expected it not to get fixed. But then again, Penny was already here. The situation had already spiraled out of control. All she could do was continue what she started.

“Chunchun, I’m going to climb out of the fence, she muttered as she placed her cat down. “Stay here, okay? I’ll get

you out of here when I’m out.”

Having said that, Penny cautiously perked up over the bush. Seeing that no one was looking for her anymore, she quickly jumped up and dusted herself off. Facing the fence, the side of her lips. stretched from ear to ear.

“Should I go straight to his place and shock him as well?” she giggled. “I went through all this anyway. Or should I just go to the old residence and meet Blacky?”

Thinking about it, her eyes curved like crescent moons. As mentioned, since this situation was already out of control, she might as well continue what she started.

Chunchun looked at her mother, wondering if her mother was actually as sober as she claimed. This was something her mother wouldn’t do. At least, she wasn’t this

type of daredevil.

With that, Penny stretched her arms as the corner of her lips curled up. “It’s been a while since I felt so thrilled,” she whispered devilishly before her fingers slowly clasped the metal bars. “And the high of thrill is probably what I truly need tonight.”

Penny reached out to anything that could give her the first boost up, pulling herself up. The fences around the Bennet mansion weren’t meant for anyone to climb. If anything, they were designed so no one could easily climb over them. However, Penny’s grip was strong, and lifting all her weight was never a problem for her.

She didn’t train to climb over another person’s fence, but she trained to be able to protect herself and the people she loved. Therefore, this was a possible task. Soon, Penny found herself sitting at the top of the fence.

“Wow,” she awed, looking down at Chunchun, who was looking up in her direction. “Wait for me, Chunchun. I’ll be on the other side in a bit.

Climbing up was harder than getting down. Hence, when Penny was already halfway down the fence, she jumped.

“Ah- A short yelp escaped her as her feet landed on the concrete ground. She paused in her

spot for a moment before she quickly got down on her knees. “Chunchun, come on, baby.”

Meow.

Chunchun swayed its tail from one side to the other smoothly before it sauntered through the fence. The cat didn’t have a hard time going through the gaps and reuniting with her mother on the other side.

“Hehe.” Penny laughed as she carried Chunchun in her arms. The thought of her first brother’s anger didn’t cross her mind anymore because she was simply glad of the successful mission. Once she was done celebrating, Penny rose to her feet and turned.

“On to our next destination, Chunchun-! Blacky, here we come!” she grinned from ear to ear, ready to go and meet her son, only to stop when she realized… “I forgot my phone and my

wallet.

She had no money with her.
