Beatrice was livid, and Julia was equally enraged as well."Penny, do you even realize what you've just said?" Julia glared at Penny, her eyes betraying resentment and anger.Beatrice, clutching her chest, scolded, "This is madness. How could a young lady like you behave like this? No wonder your father reprimanded you! In fact, I think he's been too lenient, too gentle on you!"Penny stood with her hands behind her back, gripping her phone tightly.She had a plan. If she got hit again today, she'd call the police.Practice makes perfect, after all. Today, she helped Cecilia call the police in broad daylight, and tonight she'd be calling them for herself.There would always be someone to help her.Unfazed by Beatrice and Julia's words, Penny countered, "Is there something wrong with what I said? You called me a liability, but aren't you just insulting yourselves?"They were all women in this world, so why was she the only one labeled a liability?Aren't they liabilities too?

After Penny determined that the young man didn't seem like someone with bad intentions, she asked, "Hey, are you okay?"While she checked on him, she kept her distance since she hadn't completely let her guard down. After all, it was late at night. She couldn't casually judge someone's character based on what they wore. However, the young man's appearance also made Penny feel a bit sorry for him. Of course, there would always be sympathetic people in the world like her. Even if their own lives weren't going well, they still liked to help others.Penny grew up in a loveless family. During the day, she saw someone similar to herself, which was Cecilia. Now, at night, she encountered a homeless teenager. She couldn't help but categorize him the same as Cecilia and herself.He was probably from another disagreeable family and got kicked out. Or maybe, he ran away on his own.Since Penny didn't receive a reply from the young man, she continued, "It's cold at night. You should find a p

Penny's departure from the beaten path began at this moment.Before the Lowe family's elders could criticize her, she would first assess whether her actions were wrong, and then choose an appropriate way to fight back.As expected, after she returned home without her wallet that night, her irate parents indeed sent someone to ask her to come back to the hall. Unfortunately, she had already left.She only learned about this the next day.The servant had been waiting downstairs in her loft since early morning. They casually mentioned Spencer calling for her the previous night and explained why they were there."Mrs. Lowe got up early to prepare breakfast for you. Mr. Lowe is also there. Please go to the dining room to enjoy breakfast with them."Penny found the situation quite amusing.In the past, when she was still begging for her parents' love, it was a luxury for Penny to even sit at the same table with them for a meal. Even then, she had to gauge their mood first.It was eve

Of course, Cecilia wasn't thinking that far into the future at the moment.Her and Penny were both heavily burdened, after all. Just the academic tasks alone were enough for them to spend a lot of effort at their age, and with troubles at home piling up, they had no room to think about the future.Cecilia watched Penny enjoy her meal. She couldn't help but voice out her concern, "If your family cuts off your allowance, what will you do?"She and Scarlett, her grandmother, relied on each other, and even if they were short on money, they could apply for school grants. Cecilia could even work part-time during breaks to earn a living.But Penny's situation was different.Her family wasn't short of money, they had even donated a few buildings to the school. So, she definitely wouldn't qualify for subsidies.As for taking up a part-time job…Cecilia's eyes lit up as she suggested, "Penny, you're great at studying, why don't you become a tutor? You've always been a top student. "As l

Unfortunately, her happy days didn't last long.After the snow fell on that winter night, Penny turned 18. The Lowe family's game of raising her ended there.As Penny expected, all her bank accounts associated with the Lowes were once again frozen, and even more ruthlessly than before.Early in the morning, servants from the main building came and notified Penny that she was being asked to leave the Lowes' mansion.After a night of snowfall, the yard in front of the small building where she resided was covered with a thick layer of snow. Because the servants had made a trip over there, a winding path was trodden out.Perhaps feeling Penny had it worse than they did as servants those years, their attitude was still friendly. They weren't arrogantly throwing her things out and driving her away.On the contrary, they even worried for her.Carissa helped Penny pack her belongings as she said, "Ms. Lowe, it's been really cold recently. Mr. and Mrs. Lowe haven't woken up yet. Make sur
