Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily)

Lilly hugged Hugh’s arm obediently and asked, “Grandpa, are you unwilling to bring me there?” Hugh pursed his lips. When Lilly became quiet and sensible, she always made people feel distressed.

He sighed and answered, “Yes.” Lilly was like a delicate flower that he guarded with all his heart, and he did not want others to see her. However, thinking back to the past, he also protected Jean. In the end, she passed away regretfully without seeing the outside world.

So, Hugh wanted to bring all the prosperity in the world to Lilly and let her see a wider world.

Lilly leaned against Hugh. She pondered, then asked, “Grandpa, what does God of Battle mean?” Hugh replied, “It means heroes who fought very hard. They defended our country like a patron saint. We can live in a peaceful country now because of the bloodshed and sacrifice of patron saints like them.” Although Hugh thought Blake was not a good person, he could not deny that Blake was respectable. Hugh would not hide Blake’s achievement from Lilly.

Lilly asked again, “Does that mean a good guy?” Hugh looked at her and smiled. “At least he isn’t bad.” He agreed to go to the MacNeil family, as they wanted to see what Blake could do.

If Blake wanted to return or recognize the MacNeil family, the Crawford family would not let Lilly go there.

The style of the MacNeil family was unsuitable for Lilly to live in, even for half a day.

Lilly was thinking about another question. Battle? She asked suspiciously, “Grandpa, we don’t have a battle now!” She only saw battles on TV, which were from movies.

Hugh patted Lilly’s shoulder kindly. “Battle in a peaceful era isn’t a battle ordinary people can see.” They could only have peace after battles. There was no quiet time. It was someone who blocked the gunfire from behind to protect the peace.

Lilly only understood a bit. Her Battle Daddy did not seem bad, so she wanted to meet him. She wanted to see if Blake was as tall as in her dream that he slammed into the door frame every time he entered.

She also wondered whether Blake let her ride around his neck. She believed Blake, who defended the people, should be a good father instead of being the same as Stephen.

When Kevin returned to the MacNeil family, Giuliana happened to be in the living room on the first floor. She asked curiously, “How is the Crawford family’s reaction? Are they happy?” Kevin only sent invitations to those with political ties, but the Crawford family was an exception.

Kevin answered respectfully, “Madam, the invitation has been delivered. But Mr. Crawford didn’t seem very happy and kicked me out.” He paused, then continued, “Maybe it's because we didn't see that little girl the day before yesterday, so they bear a grudge! The Crawford family has always doted on that little girl.” He paused, then continued, “Maybe it's because we didn't see that little girl the day before yesterday, so they bear a grudge! The Crawford family has always doted on that little girl.” Giuliana frowned and felt upset. She thought the Crawford family was narrow-minded. She had heard that Lilly went to play at school, and Anthony let her go to class.

Then, somehow a teacher offended Lilly, and the school fired that teacher and revoked her teaching qualification.

“Sooner or later, she will be spoiled by them.” Giuliana snorted coldly. “With such an arrogant personality, I'll never let her enter the MacNeil family.” Her fourth grandson, Leo, was indeed more romantic and had also been to play in South City. But even if Lilly was Leo's child, Giuliana did not want to acknowledge Lilly.

Giuliana even thought Lilly was ineligible to enter the MacNeil family until Leo married and gave birth to the eldest child.

She ordered Kevin, “You may go now! Re-plan the yard and separate several areas. Remember to bring all the officials into the house and the celebrities in the business circle to the yard. As for the Crawford family, let them be in the last peripheral.” Giuliana was so proud now. She felt she was from an influential family, and Blake was Dudroinia’s God of Battle. She believed no other family could compare with the MacNeil family.

So she even dared to ignore the Crawford family.

Time passed in the blink of an eye. Today was Giuliana’s birthday banquet.

Anthony set off with Lilly. Lilly wore a simple white dress like a lovely little flower. As soon as they left the car, they saw Melody and Ivan waiting at the door.

Anthony greeted and asked, “Mr. Shaw didn’t come?” Melody responded, “He has an urgent mission and isn't in the country.” After saying that, she looked at Lilly and smiled. “The MacNeil family is arrogant and may embarrass the Crawford family. So | wait for you two here.” The Shaw family was from the orthodox military department. Everyone in Clodston knew the MacNeil family only respected the people related to politics.

Anthony's voice was flat, but he politely refused. “Thank you. You don’t need to help us.” Melody waved. “You don’t need my help, but Lilly is different! She’s a cute little girl, right?” She fondled Lilly's braid.

Lilly shook her head. “No, Aunty! I'm not cute!” She could break the railing with her bare hands and swing a sledgehammer.

Melody looked at Lilly, who showed seriousness cutely.

He poused, then continued, “Moybe it's becouse we didn't see thot little girl the doy before yesterdoy, so they beor o grudge! The Crowford fomily hos olwoys doted on thot little girl.” Giuliono frowned ond felt upset. She thought the Crowford fomily wos norrow-minded. She hod heord thot Lilly went to ploy ot school, ond Anthony let her go to closs.

Then, somehow o teocher offended Lilly, ond the school fired thot teocher ond revoked her teoching quolificotion.

“Sooner or loter, she will be spoiled by them.” Giuliono snorted coldly. “With such on orrogont personolity, I'll never let her enter the MocNeil fomily.” Her fourth grondson, Leo, wos indeed more romontic ond hod olso been to ploy in South City. But even if Lilly wos Leo's child, Giuliono did not wont to ocknowledge Lilly.

Giuliono even thought Lilly wos ineligible to enter the MocNeil fomily until Leo morried ond gove birth to the eldest child.

She ordered Kevin, “You moy go now! Re-plon the yord ond seporote severol oreos. Remember to bring oll the officiols into the house ond the celebrities in the business circle to the yord. As for the Crowford fomily, let them be in the lost peripherol.” Giuliono wos so proud now. She felt she wos from on influentiol fomily, ond Bloke wos Dudroinio’s God of Bottle. She believed no other fomily could compore with the MocNeil fomily.

So she even dored to ignore the Crowford fomily.

Time possed in the blink of on eye. Todoy wos Giuliono’s birthdoy bonquet.

Anthony set off with Lilly. Lilly wore o simple white dress like o lovely little flower. As soon os they left the cor, they sow Melody ond Ivon woiting ot the door.

Anthony greeted ond osked, “Mr. Show didn’t come?” Melody responded, “He hos on urgent mission ond isn't in the country.” After soying thot, she looked ot Lilly ond smiled. “The MocNeil fomily is orrogont ond moy emborross the Crowford fomily. So | woit for you two here.” The Show fomily wos from the orthodox militory deportment. Everyone in Clodston knew the MocNeil fomily only respected the people reloted to politics.

Anthony’s voice wos flot, but he politely refused. “Thonk you. You don’t need to help us.” Melody woved. “You don’t need my help, but Lilly is different! She’s o cute little girl, right?” She fondled Lilly's broid.

Lilly shook her heod. “No, Aunty! I'm not cute!” She could breok the roiling with her bore honds ond swing o sledgehommer.

Melody looked ot Lilly, who showed seriousness cutely.

“Haha! Alright, let's go in together!” Anthony nodded and led Lilly inside.

Ivan said nothing. Does this little girl still remember me? Ivan pursed his lips, then suddenly reached out toward Lilly. “Here.” Two fruit candies were lying in his palm. One was pineapple flavored, and the other was strawberry.

Lilly's eyes sparkled. She usually would not accept candy from anyone, but it was different if a friend gave it to her.

Lilly took a quick sneak peek at Anthony, then quietly reached out to take the candy.

“Thank you, Ivan!” She leaned close to Ivan and whispered.

Ivan turned his face away and pretended to be indifferent. “Hmm.” Anthony did not stare at Lilly, but he could notice Lilly's behavior. He only pretended not to see it.

Lilly thought she was secretly peeling off the candy wrapper and putting the fruit candy into her mouth.

Seeing that, Anthony suddenly wanted to tease her. He quickly turned around and called, “Lilly?” “Hmm?” Lilly immediately pursed her lips.

“Uncle Anthony, what's the matter?” She asked while pretending to be nonchalant.

Anthony laughed, then answered, “Nothing.” Lilly said, “Oh, okay! Tell me when you have something to do.” She pretended to have no candy in her mouth and tried to cover it up. But she still dropped her saliva when she spoke.

Melody could not hold back and burst out laughing.

“Wait, I'll get you a tissue!” Melody stopped, then opened her bag to find a tissue.

When Lilly looked up, she saw the cakes inside the house.

She might run in immediately if she was in the Crawford family. But she did not forget where she was, so she held back. It was just that she could not control her eyes and aimed at the little cakes.

Meanwhile, Kevin came out. He saw Anthony and Lilly without discovering Melody behind them. Seeing Lilly looking at the cakes, he chuckled disdainfully.

Sure enough, she’s a child from a small place. She acts as if she has never seen the cakes. Hmph! “Please stop here.” Kevin smiled hypocritically. “Mr. Anthony, your seats are over there.” Upon saying that, Kevin pointed to the outermost yard. In that corner, the lights were dim, and the seats were simple wooden chairs.

“Sorry, not everyone can enter the house,” Kevin said sarcastically, “But if you want to give Old Mrs. MacNeil a gift, you can wait in line first. Oh, by the way, please watch your child. After all, children like to eat. It's better not to do anything embarrassing.”
