GoodReadLilly got out of the car and ran into the mansion fastly. “Granny, I'm back!” Jack could not check her forehead even if he tried to look carefully, so he hurried to catch up.
Blake followed Lilly slowly. Even though Lilly was running ahead, he could follow her closely with his long legs.
Behind them was the female ghost holding her head. She turned her head around. When she saw the luxurious Crawford Mansion, there was a hint of excitement in her eyes. Then, she made some strange sound from her throat.
Inside the mansion, Bettany hurriedly controlled the wheelchair to go downstairs, and Josh, who was in the mini-library, also dropped his arithmetic book.

Anthony was sitting on the sofa on the first floor working when he heard Lilly's voice. He stood calmly and muttered, “Lilly is finally back. They should rest assured now.” The next second, he saw Lilly running in. Her forehead was shockingly red and seemed bleeding.
Bettany exclaimed, “Lilly!” Josh hurried forward. “Lilly, what's wrong with your head? Are you okay? Does it hurt?” Gilbert asked Liam to get the medicine box and hurried forward to check on Lilly.
Edward stared at Lilly, and even Jonas put away his foolish look and frowned.
Hugh was angry and impatient, then scolded Anthony, “Didn’t you say she wouldn't get hurt?” Anthony looked at the whole family staring at him and dared not to say anything. He glared dangerously at Blake, who had just walked in. Blake was so tall that his head almost reached the door frame and blocked the door.
The Crawford family followed Anthony's gaze.
Blake felt about eight gazes glaring at him like knives when he entered the mansion.
He had seen Hugh, who stared at him gloomily. He had also seen Anthony, who showed a cold and sharp expression.
There were a few others that Blake had not seen before. One of them was dark-skinned and looked grumpy as if wishing to come up to fight Blake immediately.
There was even a parrot flapping its wings and shouting, “Caw! Caw!” Blake looked around without changing his expression, then asked, “What happened?” Bettany gritted her teeth and scolded, “What's wrong with Lilly's forehead? You should protect her!” Blake paused for a moment.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBettany nagged endlessly. Although they met for the first time, she still scolded Blake unceremoniously without alienation. It made Blake involuntarily think of his mother’s nagging look. After a long time, he never expected to hear similar complaints again.
Blake pursed his lips and apologized, “Sorry.” Bettany snorted and did not accept it. She would not forgive anyone who made Lilly get hurt! Seeing that everyone misunderstood, Lilly hurriedly explained, “Granny, it's not Daddy’s fault!” When everyone heard it, they felt upset. It was only one night, but Lilly was already familiar with Blake and even helped Blake.
After careful inspection, Gilbert found Lilly’s forehead was only scratched and swollen. It was nothing serious. It was just that the dyed red medicated ointment shocked them.
He asked softly, “Lilly, tell me, how did you get knocked on the head?” Lilly said in detail, “Daddy took me to give flowers to Great-Grandpa, Grandpa, and Grandma. | imitated Daddy and saluted but accidentally hit the ground.” Everyone was speechless when knowing the truth.
Blake raised an eyebrow. “Look, it’s not my fault.” Bettany glanced at him with an indescribable emotion. As Hugh described, Blake, who tempted Jean and Lilly, was like a crime boss.
Gilbert smiled and asked, “Lilly, why did you return late? Where did your daddy take you to play?” Lilly recalled seriously and answered, “We didn’t go anywhere! Daddy only took me to greet Great-Grandpa, Grandpa, and Grandma.” Josh did not believe Lilly to greet her great-grandpa and grandparents for so long. So he asked, “And then?” Lilly responded, “Then Daddy taught me how to smash enemies’ brains.” The Crawford family was stunned, while Blake was speechless.
