Spoiled by Eight Uncles

After Bettany understood what Lisa was trying to say, she immediately turned her gaze to Josh.

Josh angrily exclaimed, “Grandma, don’t hit me with your bare hands!”

Bettany was speechless.

When did she even mention hitting someone?

She glared at Josh and asked, a bit flustered, “Normally, I always tell you not to use foul language! Just think, what kind of person does that make you?”

“Lilly never used to curse, but now she’s doing it because of your influence. How ladylike do you think she appears now?”

“Next time I hear those words from you, I’ll make sure you lose your front teeth!” Bettany said sternly.

Josh lowered his head, “Grandma, I’m sorry!”

Lilly quickly bowed her head and said, “Grandma, I’m sorry!”

Bettany’s heart immediately softened.

Oh well… She’s just so adorable. What’s the harm in a few foul words…

Alright, she can say it!

Even though she secretly relented, the old lady maintained a stern expression and turned her attention back to teaching Lisa.

With someone in the family who would obediently listen to her, endure her nagging, and not talk back, everyone suddenly felt a sense of relief and their burdens seemed to lighten.

“Sir, there are several police officers and three individuals claiming to be from the McCarthy family outside…”

Anthony’s face turned icy, and he responded coldly, “Let them in,”

The gates of the Crawford Mansion swung open.

The police officers occasionally cast glances at Veronica and Steward, while a man of similar age to Steward stood beside them. He had a goatee and a serious expression on his face.

Veronica had a hat on and wore a mask, and she had a limp on one of her legs.
