Spoiled by Eight Uncles

Levitating in a corner, Pablo followed Lilly’s line of vision and said, “Come on. It’s just a spatula. So what if they don’t take it away? It’s dirty and nasty now.”

Lilly pursed her lips. Fine…

I’m sorry, spatula…

She did not mean to ditch it.

The Crawfords mistook the bleakness on Sweet Pea’s face as grief.

It was not a pleasant experience for a child to witness a blatant kidnapping. Hannah had been taken to rest just now.

“Are you alright, Lilly?” Feeling sorry, Bettany held Lilly.

Lilly shook her head. “It’s okay. Hm… Out with the old and in with the new.”

The Crawfords were at a loss for words.

Liam burst into laughter.

There would not be someone new. That was it for him.

With the matter finally put to rest, Liam felt relieved. It was a feeling away from anxiety and distress like never before.

“Come on, Lilly. Let’s get you something to eat.”

The gentle sway of the shadows among the trees went unnoticed. A dark silhouette rustled along the grass, lifting its head to reveal a face full of blood…

It reached its hand out in the Crawfords’ direction, making a grabbing gesture. Eerie blue-violet veins were popping out of its hand…

…

This was the Crawfords’ first camping trip with the whole family. Hugh did not want the special family moment to be ruined by Winona.

“What do you want to eat? I’ll make it for you.”

Wearing an apron, Bryson held a plate up and tenderly ran his fingers along Lilly’s hair.

Lilly gulped at the smell of barbecue. Still, her enthusiasm was reflected in her sparkling eyes.

“So I can have anything? Even barbecue?” She asked.

Bryson curled his lips. “Yes, anything.”

After a word with Liam, Bettany wheeled herself over and said, “You can only have a skewer. Too much barbecue isn’t good for you.”

Lilly’s face fell. “Alright…”

She longingly glanced at the barbecue grill.

There were chicken, sausages, and shrimp on the grill.
