Spoiled (Lily)

Chapter 88

In the dark room, one could see the man in black, his dark eyes under the dim moonlight. His slightly

curly hair hung over his eyebrows, and his eyes reflected the moonlight.

His phone rang, so he picked up the phone. A voice from the other side could be vaguely heard. “Mr.

Rosewood passed away today at 3.50 pm. It was his neighbor, Valentine, who discovered him. The

ones who went to the Rosewood residence together are Anthony, Josh, and Lilly from the Crawford

family and Charlie Brown… About the corpse under the Animaux Private Academy’s field… The police

records show that Mr. Rosewood went over previously to report that he was certain that corpses were

buried under the field…”The man in black laughed. Old Mr. Rosewood went over to solve the case? He

could not believe that.

“Why did the Crawford family go over?”

The other party replied, “The Crawford family were planning on going to the Taylor residence…”

Once the other party finished speaking, the man in black said coldly, “Investigate everyone who went to

the Rosewood residence today and send me their information.” He then hung up the phone and put his

phone into his pocket.

He was Blake MacNeil, whose name was given by his grandfather, who had passed away 18 years

ago. Before his grandfather passed away, his grandfather met Mr. Rosewood coincidentally and asked

Mr. Rosewood to find Blake.

Blake only discovered this after some time, so he was too late when he returned. There were many

things he wanted to ask Old Mr. Rosewood about, but he would never have the chance to do so

anymore.

Blake soon stood up and disappeared into the night.

…

Lilly had a great sleep that night. She dreamt that a man taller than a door frame admitted to being her

father. Then, he bumped his head into the door frame as he was about to step through the door,

causing Lilly to giggle.

As Pablo returned, he saw Lilly giggling in her dreams, revealing her sweet dimples. He was dressed in

a white robe and showed a rarely-seen gentle smile as he patted Lilly’s head. “Silly little one.”

The next day, Lilly slept until it was 9.00 am. Bettany quietly walked in, seemingly worried, and wanted

to check if Lilly was still there. She then saw that Lilly had washed up and changed. Lilly was already

wearing her shoes.

“Good morning, Granny!” Lilly said with a bright smile.

Bettany’s mood immediately brightened, and she smiled. “Lilly, why are you up so early?” Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Lilly replied, “Polly woke me up!”

On the balcony, Polly leaned against the mosquito net while singing a song. Bettany’s mouth twitched

upon seeing this. She disagreed with Anthony when he said he wanted to create a tropical rainforest

room beside the balcony because she thought the parrot was too noisy.

Lilly was growing up, so she had to have a peaceful sleep. What if the parrot woke her up at midnight?

Bettany nagged and complained that Anthony was insensible even though he was all grown up.

Lilly could not help but laugh. She held Bettany’s hand and walked out, following the wheelchair.

“Granny, Polly won’t be noisy at night.”

Parrots were the same as humans. They could not see anything at night if there was no light.

Moreover, they would sleep quietly at night and not make any noise unless someone disturbed them or

there was danger.

Downstairs, Anthony, Drake, and Josh had their breakfast at the dining table. One of them was looking

at the tablet to handle work, another was reading the news in the newspaper, and the last of them was

reading an arithmetic book, thinking and eating at the same time. They did their own things without

disturbing each other.

Hugh put the teacup aside and said with a stern expression, “Eat properly. Why are you all doing so

many things at once?”

Since Lilly returned, the Crawford family had not had their “morning meetings” for a while.

Hugh was a strict person who usually did not speak much. However, everyone would be obedient once

he spoke. Anthony put down his tablet while Drake and Josh put down their book and newspaper.

Hearing the noise from the stairs, Josh thought it was Lilly and immediately looked over. Instead, he

saw Hannah running down with slippers.

Hannah looked around and asked, “Where’s Lilly?” She was secretly frustrated. Did she not make it in

time again today? She did not see Lilly yesterday, and Lilly even went out today!

Josh sneered and asked, “Tsk, the princess is up early today huh?!”

Hannah snorted angrily and prepared to return to her room in a bad mood, not wanting to have

breakfast at all.

Hugh frowned and said, “Don’t you know how to greet people? Have your breakfast before sleeping

again!”

Anthony said indifferently, “Dad, you don’t have to be that strict.”

Hugh sneered and replied, “I’m strict with everyone!”

Hannah walked over with her slipped, not wanting to have breakfast at all. She never had the habit of

eating breakfast.

The elevator’s light flashed, and Lilly and Bettany came out.

Hannah’s eyes lit up, but she quickly acted as if nothing happened and took a bite of bread.

Lilly said, “Good morning, Hannah, Drake, Josh, Uncle Anthony, and Grandpa Hugh!”

Hugh nodded and replied with a gentle voice, “Morning, Lilly.”

Drake and Josh immediately looked at Hugh, and even Anthony raised his head. Strict to everyone?

Hugh coughed and looked at his watch as he said, “Lilly, it’s already 9.00 am. You should wake up

earlier next time, understand?”

Bettany controlled the wheelchair to move over. As she got some oatmeal for Lilly, she glared at Hugh.

“Why are you showing such a bad expression when it’s only the morning? Do you think you’re still the

leader of the company?”

Hugh pursed his lips.

Lilly said with a smile, “I understand, Grandpa. I’ll wake up earlier than the rooster next time!”

Hugh replied, “Well, you don’t have to wake up that early…”

Anthony, Drake, and Josh looked at him, causing him to be speechless.

After breakfast, Anthony wanted to bring Lilly to the MacNeil residence.

Yesterday, Mr. Rosewood said that Lilly’s father was surnamed MacNeil, so the Crawford family

decided to visit them after some discussion.

If Lilly was really from the MacNeil family, the Crawford family had no reason to hide Lilly’s existence,

so they selfishly made the decision for her.

Coincidentally, there was someone around 26 in the MacNeil family. It was said that he was a nephew

from a small branch of the MacNeil family, and lived away from home, which matched what Old Mr.

Rosewood described.

The MacNeil residence was close to the Shaw residence. However, the Shaw residence was in the

military compound, while the MacNeil residence was in a wealthy area where businessmen and

politicians gathered.

As the car drove along the streets, Lilly leaned on the car window and suddenly gasped.

A woman in red was waiting for the traffic lights to turn green by the road.
