Lilly witnessed a shocking sight, causing her to retreat instinctively. Now she was unable to understand what she saw and wanted to take another look, but the world she saw was nowhere to be found.

Zachary swiftly asked, “How was it, Lils? How was the pen?”

Lilly was confused and muttered, “I just saw a group of people clocking in… numerous people clocking in.”

Zachary was confused.

What does that mean?

Were they office workers clocking into work?

He could not understand what she was saying, but Lilly remained silent for an unknown reason.

Lilly could not understand the situation unfolding before her.

Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of that world, like a reflection in a mirror, impenetrable and mysterious.

This time, Pablo was also perplexed and asked, “What’s wrong, Lilly?”

Lilly simply shook her head.

For some reason, she knew that she should not say anything about it.

Lilly put away the pen, stood up, and said, “I’m hungry… Zachary, let’s go downstairs to eat!”

“Let’s go, Master!”

Zachary and Pablo were dumbfounded.

Only when Lilly had left did Zachary say, “Ah, oh, alright.”

As Lilly went down the stairs, she noticed her uncle had come back.

For some reason, she suddenly thought of those voices from earlier.

They mentioned that Mr. Stark should not receive any money…

Lilly stepped forward and hugged Anthony’s thigh.

Just as Anthony was about to lift Lilly, Lisa swiftly stepped in, scooped her up, and held her in her arms.

“Lilly’s… mine!” she exclaimed happily.
