Spoiled by Eight Uncles

“Please allow me to help with the pie, Mrs. Crawford,” Margaret looked concerned. Bettany shook her head, “It is the least I could do for Lilly.”

Bettany had always wanted to make Jean’s favorite food after she got better, but Jean never did. Now with Jean’s daughter here, Bettany felt she needed to do her best to take care of Lilly.

Margaret sighed. Bettany was about to bring out the pie when Lilly rushed into the kitchen. “Granny!” Lilly ran toward Bettany.

“What’s the matter?” Bettany asked. Before Lilly could reply, Winona’s voice rang through the kitchen, “Lilly! Where do you think you are going?”

Bettany frowned. Winona stepped into the kitchen and was surprised to find Bettany there. She looked at Bettany, wide-eyed. “Bettany! You are here.”

“Where would I be?” Bettany scowled at her, “What are you trying to do behind my back?”

“I am not doing anything behind your back,” Winona panicked, “I was simply asking Lilly to pick up the apple core she threw on the floor, but she used foul language at me.”

“I did not think it was appropriate, so I wanted to explain why to her. That was when she ran away to the kitchen,” Winona continued.
