Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 1269 Sorry, Lilly

Lilly opened the front door. The cold outside was a harsh contrast to the warmth within the

Tears welled up in Lilly’s eyes. “Uncle Cloud…” she called out softly.

“Uncle Cloud, why are you hiding here? Are you planning to give all of us a surprise? Everyone…. Everyone’s waiting for you.”
