#23-The Plan To Assassinate The Crown Prince

"Penny, Honey, you've been quiet ever since we started dinner. Are you feeling unwell?"

The worried question from Duchess Askary made Penelope flinch and forced a smile. She didn't want to worry her parents. Because of that, her injured state, when she returned home today, was hidden from her parents. Penelope also asked everyone, including her older brother, to keep it a secret. Penelope shook her head and continued eating her dinner.

"I'm fine, Mother. I was just thinking of something."

"Thinking of what, Honey?" This time, it was Duke Askary who asked. "Are you thinking about your upcoming birthday party?"

Penelope blinked and laughed softly. Seeing their daughter laughing like that, Duke and Duchess Askary looked at each other and smiled in relief. Since the carriage accident at that time, the change in Penelope made both of them happy. Ethan also smiled when he saw that his beloved little sister was much better.
