Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 810

Chapter 810: Allen just woke up.

[PRESENT TIME]

Penny sat behind her desk, pausing every once in a while to think about her friend, Heart.

"Impossible," she breathed out, narrowing her eyes as she shook her head. "Don’t tell me, Sister Belle is... Heart?"

Again, Penny shook her head to rid herself of those thoughts. What were the odds? But then again, that birthmark looked so much the same and in the same place as the one Heart had. Penny would know because she had seen it a lot of times.

Heart was mute, and the burn on her body was so severe she looked like a monster. It was what other inmates called her to mock or make fun of her. After all, Heart barely had a few strands of hair, which Penny would sometimes shave for her.

However, because that place was a prison, Penny rarely got too personal with anyone in it. She disliked people asking her questions about her life outside those walls, so she didn’t ask others either. Grace, however, was different. Grace liked poking her nose where it didn’t belong; she liked gossiping and would tell Penny about it all. It was why Grace sometimes found herself in trouble.

But that was how Penny found out that Heart had originally been in the psych ward prison and was transferred to normal prison cells after she recovered.

"If, let’s say, Belle is Heart... then..." Penny trailed off, thinking about Heart’s sentence and the reason she was behind bars. There were a few rumors about her, but Penny wasn’t sure which was true.

Some said she had gotten burned because she committed arson, only to get trapped in the house she burned. Others said her burns were already there before she ended up in prison. Either way, what Penny remembered was that Heart had been sentenced to life in prison.

"I don’t want her to be Heart, but... what if that’s the reason I felt like I’ve known her for a long time?" she wondered to herself, her heart suddenly thudding.

Penny didn’t hesitate any longer, reaching for her phone to call Yugi.

The moment the line was picked up, Penny spoke. "Add more security to Belle and her husband. No questions. Just make sure she’s safe."

"Ah, Pen—"

Clack.

Penny didn’t wait for whatever Yugi wanted to say, tossing her phone back in the drawer. She leaned back and crossed her arms, narrowing her eyes.

"I hope she’s not Heart," she told herself. "I really hope she’s not Heart."

Because if Belle turned out to be that person, then Penny had just found the inmate she couldn’t locate in the state prison. After all, Penny had ordered Wild to look into a few inmates and their cases. Except for Grace, who didn’t end up in jail in this lifetime, there were a few people Penny wanted to get out for different reasons: some for help but others for other things.

As for Heart, Penny wanted to get her out of prison solely because Penny and Grace owed her a lot. However, Heart was the only one who wasn’t imprisoned yet.

"That’s weird, though," Penny whispered. "Heart was already in prison a year or two before I got in. A year from now, I would end up in jail. So, she should be there."

With that thought in mind, Penny tried to refocus on her work. She still had to finish these documents before anything else. However, she couldn’t stop pausing every so often with a sour look on her face. _{ƒгeewebnovёl.com}
