Spoiled by Eight Uncles

Veronica’s thoughts were indeed calculated. In her twisted logic, by killing her relatives and saving the Crawford family during their time of disaster, she believed she would become the heroic benefactor of the Crawford family.

Unfortunately, her mental faculties seemed to have abandoned her, preventing her from realizing the contradiction in her actions. Instead, she now accused the Crawford family of hiding the corpse, unknowingly exacerbating the disaster she had caused.

Lilly shook her head in disbelief and whispered to Jack, “Has her mind been eaten?”

Pablo chimed in. “Yes, she has,”

Lilly’s eyes widened in surprise. “Seriously? Her brain has been eaten?”

Pablo replied. “Don’t speak, let’s focus on resolving the current situation.”

Lilly quickly covered her mouth, realizing the need for silence at that moment.

“Corpse?” Anthony said coldly. “You mean her?”

He turned around as he spoke.

Huh? Where did she go?

Anthony was taken aback when he realized that Lisa was still in the living room when both the police officer and the McCarthy family entered the premises. However, given her pale complexion. Veronica and the others probably had not noticed her.

How could Lisa suddenly disappear now?

Jack quickly whispered to Margaret, “Where is Lady Lisa?”

Margaret was equally bewildered. “She was here just a moment ago!”

The second elder of the McCarthy family sneered, “What’s the matter? Can’t the show continue?”

Veronica exclaimed, “Of course, the corpse isn’t here! Why would the body be here…”

The steward interrupted, ‘Just search and you’ll find out!”
