Penny has three brothers: one is a billionaire CEO, the second is the youngest military lieutenant, and the last is a successful actor. These three successful men had only one common ground: bullying Penny, their sore-eye of a little sister. The sister they never wished to have, and the one who claimed to be their real sister, while the sister they treasured all this time was a fake. After living a life of maltreatment in her aunt's home, some people of high standing came to Penny with news of her real parentage. She thought she was finally saved from her aunt’s clutches, unaware that what awaited her was worse. At 13, Penny only wished for one thing: for her brothers to love her and treat her like family, just as much as they loved their fake sister. She worked and studied ten times harder than anybody else just to be accepted by them. In her desperation, she foolishly fell into a trap set by a malicious person, not knowing her actions would result in the downfall of her brothers and her ending up in jail with a death sentence. On her execution day, Penny had only one thought in mind: If she ever got to go back in time, her brothers could pamper their fake sister for all she cared! She wanted nothing to do with them! And much to her surprise, Penny found herself back on the day it all began: the day she was born. As promised, this time, she wouldn’t foolishly try to earn her brothers' love and affection. Never mind family! She’d just make a lot of money, live in luxury, and make a family of her own! But wait, why is it now that she didn’t want anything to do with her brothers, they kept poking their noses into her business? Weren’t they supposed to pamper their fake sister? Why won’t they leave her alone?! And how on earth was she married in this lifetime? To make matters worse, this husband she never had in her first life was suddenly volunteering to be the father of her children?!
Thud!
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on the woman who had been pushed down and landed on the floor with a thud. Deep lines appeared between their brows as they stared at Penny, a face too unfamiliar to most of them.
"Penny?" Belle whispered to herself, pushing herself up slightly, worry immediately shining in her eyes, confused by this sudden turn of events.
Dean, on the other hand, narrowed his eyes, his face twisting. 'What is this woman doing now?' he wondered, veins in his forehead protruding. 'Wasn't she trying to hide? Why is she here, taking all the spotlight?'
Dean slowly lifted his gaze to Mildred and then at the rest of the kitchen crew. He knew Penny well enough to guess the reason. 'It must be because of Mildred.' Penny was like this, after all—when someone she cared about was in trouble, she would always step in.
