Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Despite the old lady’s disapproval, Lilly was determined to watch the typhoon. In a surprising turn of events, Blake swiftly took Lilly and snuck out.

Bettany called out angrily, “Blake, bring the children back! Why are you bringing them to watch the typhoon? Aren’t you afraid the typhoon will blow everyone away!”

Blake pretended to be confused and replied, “Watch a typhoon? What are you talking about? We’re not going to see the typhoon, we’re visiting Lilly’s Uncle Max!”

Bettany was speechless.

Blake continued pretending to be clueless, “Isn’t her Uncle Max in Wyndon? The little one suddenly said she misses her sixth uncle.”

Bettany thought to herself…

I don’t believe you!

The typhoon was at Wyndon.

The unreliable father led the children, then quickly departed.

Even Drake joined them, which was quite unexpected. Before, he would have chosen to stay home during the holidays, claiming that going out was pointless. But now, he realized that the saying “Travel broadens the mind” held some truth and that children needed to experience the outside world more.

She glanced at her brother, Zachary, who seemed lost in thought, while Hannah chattered excitedly. Blake, the bodyguard, was studying how to fly a large plane with a notebook.

“I’ll fly a big plane next time. The Crawford family’s private jets are often parked at the airport, and are unused,” Blake mentioned.

They arrived at Wyndon, in the neighboring province, by plane. The typhoon had not affected the area much, so they could still reach their destination without any major issues.

Their next mode of transportation was by car.

“Woohoo! I’m finally going to see Uncle Max!” Lilly joyfully exclaimed as she lay against the window, watching the rain outside.

The rain was not too heavy, as the car drove by.
