The luxury of the Crawford family overwhelmed the elderly woman, causing her to have trouble sleeping for three consecutive nights.

Every time Margaret bought groceries, the elderly woman felt jealous.

On this particular day, Lilly went downstairs with Bettany and Hugh for her orientation at kindergarten.

She had transferred from another school for quite some time and had not enrolled in there due to various reasons.

While passing by the playground, Lilly suddenly halted.

“Grandma, I want to play there,” Lilly pointed towards the children’s paradise, adding, “I’ll play for five minutes.”

Bettany kindly responded, “Go ahead!”

Blake had just gone downstairs and was waiting in the car, so waiting an extra five minutes was not a problem. Bettany sent a message to Blake to inform him.

During Lilly’s stay at Stephen’s house, she rarely had the opportunity to go out. Stephen did not like her, and her “grandparents” felt embarrassed to take her out.

After returning to Crawford Mansion, which was a large manor, they would usually go out by car, and there was no playground in the community.

Lilly joyfully climbed, slid down the slide, and played on the swing… she had a wonderful time.

Bettany initially watched with a smile, but then could not help feeling a bit sorrowful.

Under normal circumstances, their Lilly should have been an ordinary, carefree child…

Lost in her thoughts, Lilly ran over and happily exclaimed, “Grandma, I’m done playing, let’s go!”

Bettany snapped back to reality and checked the time—it had been five minutes.

It was heart-wrenchingly bittersweet.
