Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 40 Tearing Hannah Apart
Winona’s eyes brimmed with tears as she saw little Hannah running toward her. She had visited Crawford Mansion today in hopes of seeing Hannah, but the Crawfords had left on a camping trip. Winona recalled a time back when Lilly had yet to appear in the Crawfords’ lives, where she would be hard pressed to find any of the Crawfords together, and now they’re going camping together! If they had been this close last time, perhaps Liam and her would not have grown apart. They would have been closer than ever today.
“Mommy!” Hannah’s sweet voice interrupted Winona’s thoughts.
She smiled at the sight of her daughter and extended her arm toward her. “My sweet darling!” she called out. Hannah excitedly ran into her mother’s embrace, having been attached to Winona since she was a baby. Tears began to well in Winona’s eyes once more as she hugged her daughter tight. It had been two days since they last saw each other. Did Hannah miss her as much as she missed her daughter? she wondered.
“Have you been eating well these two days, Hannah? Sleeping well?” Winona asked.
Hannah thought for a moment before shaking her tiny head. “Grandpa and Grandma says I can only eat during lunch and dinner time. After that, there’s no more food.”
“Not even when you’re hungry?” Winona asked in disbelief.
Hannah shook her head again. She had learnt that hard way that there would be no food for her if she threw a tantrum, so she always ate her meals on time nowadays.
“How could she do that to you? You’re still a growing child!” Winona’s heart ached for her daughter. “It’s normal not to feel hungry during mealtimes. They shouldn’t starve you! Hannah, let’s leave this place. We’ll go back to Grandma’s house.” Winona was both hurt and angry. She was only gone for two days, and they were already mistreating Hannah.
However, Hannah turned to look at the Crawford Mansion behind her before looking at her mother again. “Mommy, I don’t want to leave. I want to stay here and play,” she told Winona.
Winona’s face scrunched up in disbelief. She could not understand why Hannah would want to stay with these people who gave her a hard time at home. She sighed and pulled a sad face. “Hannah, you don’t want Mommy anymore?” She tried to guilt-trip her daughter.
As expected, Hannah shook her head vehemently. “I do!!”
“Alright, let’s go then. Mommy will take you to the playground!” Winona coaxed her daughter.
