Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 76 Josh The Dishonest

Lilly and Anthony took a stroll on the street. The girl had eaten ice cream, two boxes of strawberries, a mousse cake, grilled chicken wings, and fried chicken…

It was only after she got her silver needles that they went home.Bettany smiled. “You’re home just in time for dinner, Lilly.”

Lilly shook her head. “My stomach is massive now, Granny.”

That caught Bettany off guard. “What did you eat?”

The girl met her grandmother’s gaze. “I had ten salads.”

The elder was amused by her antics. “Lying is bad, Lilly!”

“Don’t be angry, Granny! I had an ice cream, two mousse cakes, and two boxes of strawberries…”

She recounted everything she ate.

“…” Bettany was at a loss for words.

Lilly gave Bettany a look. “You said you wouldn’t be angry, Granny.”

“I’m not angry. Don’t eat so much of that junk. Children should be eating better.”

The little girl happily kissed her grandmother. “Okay, Granny! Thank you!”

Granny was the best.

She was going to learn medicine to cure her legs!

The child happily went upstairs.

She hurried back into her room when she sensed movements coming from within the jar of souls.

Bettany’s eyes softened as she watched Lilly return to her room before she turned to Anthony.

“Really? Why did you feed her all that junk? You know how children can be irresponsible. Can’t you be a little more sensible as an adult?”

Anthony awkwardly rubbed his nose. Lilly was the one who ate everything. Why was he the one getting yelled at?

“She said she wanted to eat.”

She had looked at him with puppy eyes. Who could resist her?

Bettany continued to criticize him, “So you give her everything she wants? Learn to say no.”

She would never have allowed him to go this far if she were around.

Anthony cleared his throat. “I still have a meeting to attend.”

He immediately left.

Bettany glared at him.
