Chapter 19 Convicting Lilly

Winona hugged Hannah with tears in her eyes. She comforted her, “Good girl. It was Lilly who beat you first. My baby. Don’t cry…”

Drake said coldly without any expression, “Aunt Winona. You can ask other people if you want to know who hit whom first.”

Drake was speechless. He didn’t like his sister, but he hated Hannah even more.

The kids around them looked at each other.

Winona pointed at one of the girls, “Cheryl, tell me.”

The girl called Cheryl was shocked. She looked at Winona before looking at her mother. “I… I didn’t see clearly. I think it was Miss Lilly who hit Miss Hannah first…”

Drake frowned when he heard the answer.

It was Hannah who pounced at Lilly and hit her first. How did it become Lilly who was the one who hit Hannah first?

“What did you say? Say it again.” He stared at Cheryl and said in a cold voice like his father.

Cheryl was at a loss and held onto her mother’s shirt. She lowered her head and said nothing.

Everyone else was speechless.

It was rumored that the child the Crawford family took in was bad. She caused her stepmother’s miscarriage and asked her uncles to bankrupt the Hatcher family. The Crawford family was spoiling Lilly to make up for what they owed Jean…

It seemed like the rumor was true after looking at what Drake did.

“Mr. Drake, please stop scaring Cheryl! She was only telling the truth!”

“You will spoil Miss Lilly. Although it is sad that she doesn’t have a mother at such a young age, you shouldn’t do this…”

Hannah started to cry louder when she saw that everyone was on her side. They were all blaming Lilly.

Lilly clenched her fists. She didn’t know why the adults blamed her even though she did nothing wrong. She wondered if the world of an adult was different from hers.

Lilly insisted, “I didn’t do anything wrong! She lied! Uncle Anthony bought me the dress. It was Hannah who hit me first…”

Before she could finish, Winona interrupted her, “Enough! Look at Hannah’s bruised face. What else do you have to say for yourself?”

Lilly was speechless.

Winona squatted down and hugged Hannah, “Good girl. Stop crying. Let’s go back first.”
Winona hugged Hannah with tears in her eyes. She comforted her, “Good girl. It was Lilly who beat you first. My baby. Don’t cry…”
