"Miss Penny, the food is ready," Butler Jen announced outside Penny's room.
"Okay, Butler Jen! I'll just finish this!" she answered with a wide smile.
After ten minutes, Haines knocked on her door.
"Penny? Do you want to eat?" he asked, head peeking in the door.
Penny, who was sitting in the study chair, looked back at him and said. "Just a minute, Uncle. I will come down after this."
"Okay." Haines slowly closed the door and sighed.
After Haines, one of the servants also came to get her. However, Penny kept saying she would come down to eat after she finished her homework.
Thirty minutes later… everyone looked up when the head maid came down with a grim expression. It only meant Penny used the same excuse.
Everyone had been discreet about their plans for today, but it seemed they had to tell her about it just to make her come down! What a dilemma.
