Chapter 28 – The Princess: Eight Uncles Beloved Treasure Novel (Lily & Crawfords)

Posted on October 25, 2023 by thisisterrisun

Filed to story: Eight Uncles Beloved Treasure

Hearing that, Gilbert suddenly remembered when Lily pushed Debbie away in Hatcher Mansion’s backyard before. He didn’t pay much attention at the time. He thought he was the one who kicked Debbie, but…

Gilbert exchanged glances with the rest. His face darkened.

Hugh squinted his eyes and said, “No one is allowed to talk about what you saw today. Lily, don’t do that again, okay?”

Lily obediently nodded. However, she felt confused.

Why were they so nervous? Isn’t it great that I’m strong and powerful? I can help them!

Anthony asked in a low voice, “Where is Edward?”

Right then, Edward entered with a large pair of pliers. “Lily, don’t be afraid. Uncle Edward is here to save you!”

“Uncle Edward, I’m here! I got out!” Lily looked up and replied.

Edward was stunned.

Gilbert quickly whispered in Edward’s ear, “Get rid of those bent iron railings over there!”

After that, he explained to Edward what had happened.

Edward was shocked when he saw the bent iron railings.

“Lily, you’re so strong! How about working for me at the construction site?”

“Really? I want to go!” Lily was excited.

Hearing that, everyone was speechless.

After breakfast, Lily wanted to follow Liam and Edward to the construction site.

Everyone thought Lily was joking earlier, but it seemed like she was serious.

Gilbert had no choice but to explain, “Lily, it’s very dangerous at the construction site. Plus, unauthorized individuals are not allowed to enter.”

“But I’m not an employee! Please, let me go with you!”

Hearing that, everyone couldn’t help but laugh.

However, Lily was still a child. Despite appearing knowledgeable, she was still a young girl.

Edward couldn’t bear to see Lily continue begging, so he picked her up and said, “Let’s go, Lily. Uncle Edward will take you there!”

However, Lily broke free from his grasp and hurriedly ran upstairs. “Just give me a minute, Uncle Edward. I want to change my clothes. Wait for me!”

Afterwards, everyone returned to their respective tasks. Anthony, as the company’s leader, went back to work. Bryson returned to his company for the flight test, and Jonas went back to his production team.

Liam, who was reserved, and Edward, who had a hot temper, both worked at the same construction site. Their company was the top construction company in the country.

Despite being an architect, Liam spent most of his time at the construction site.

Edward, as the project manager, not only had responsibilities for the project, but also had to periodically inspect the construction site’s safety.

Lily changed into a yellow dress and carried a cute satchel bag. She happily descended the stairs and encountered Winona, who was ascending.

Immediately, Lily stopped and greeted, “Good morning, Aunt Winona.”

Lily carefully glanced at Winona.

After activating her Third Eye, Lily discovered that Winona’s face emitted a dark aura and her eyes resembled those of a monster.

Suddenly, Lily found Winona to be frightening.

Winona brought a bowl of noodle soup to Hannah’s room. Hannah liked to sleep in, even on school days, she would sleep until ten o’clock.

Usually, Winona would serve breakfast in bed, soothe her grumpiness, and prepare her for kindergarten.

Lilly greeted her, but she replied to her greeting in an aloof manner. Suddenly, she looked down at the bowl of noodles that she was holding.

The noodle soup is boiling, what if I drop it on Lilly’s face…

Winona was shocked by her own intrusive thought. She quickly calmed herself down and walked past Lilly with her typical standoffish face.

Lilly felt a sense of fear, “Master, what is that on Aunt Winona’s face?!”

Pablo was floating beside Lilly, “It’s the aura of

death.”

“What is the aura of death?” Lilly asked.

Pablo squinted his eyes and said, “It means…she killed a person.”

Only a person who has killed someone and stayed beside them when they were dying would have this aura.

Lilly felt extremely concerned. She hugged her rabbit toy tightly and jogged back to the room to find Polly.

Pablo asked curiously, “Why are you bringing Polly?”

Polly was a talkative bird. He tended to babble random words and sing questionable songs when he was bored.

For instance, ‘Baby Kitty, meow, meow, meow, meow’.

Can you imagine a parrot imitating a cat?

It’s disastrous!

Lilly said, “I feel worried about leaving Polly at home!”

What if Aunt Winona kills him and makes him into a dish…

Polly instantly puffed up his feathers, which was a sign of alertness.

“Monster! Concerned! Concerned!” Polly screamed loudly.

Lilly petted him to calm him down, “Let’s go now!” she said.

She was wearing an overall jumpsuit while carrying a kitty bag. The little toddler with two braids then ran down the stairs with a rabbit toy in one hand and a parrot in the other.

How could she be so cute?!

Mrs. Crawford, who was always worried sick about Lilly, urged repeatedly, “Please take care of Lilly! Especially you, Liam, don’t let Lilly get out of your sight.”

“I know, mom,” said Liam impatiently.

“Let’s go now!” said Edward hurriedly.

Liam’s heart melted at the sight of his adorable niece.

Having such a cute little niece, of course, she should be taken out to show off!

At the same time, Winona was trying hard to wake Hannah up. However, Hannah refused to get up from bed. Winona stood up and looked down from the balcony.

She frowned when she saw Liam carrying Lilly into the car.

He never even carries his own daughter!

Lilly looked up and locked eyes with Winona. She jumped and hugged Liam’s neck tightly.

Liam followed Lilly’s gaze and raised his head. He glanced at Winona coldly and closed the door.

The car drove further and further away from the Crawford Mansion. Winona felt irritated and upset, but she did not know why…
