Spoiled (Lily)
Chapter 390 Sweet Dreams The man took the gold bracelet and smiled slightly. âPrepare a small bucket of water and add a few drops. of your blood to the water. Then, immerse the talisman in that water briefly.â
The lady thanked the man profusely and left the place soon.
As soon as she got home, the lady threw herself onto the sofa and breathed a long sigh.
Iâm going to the Crawford Mansion tomorrow!
Itâs one of those places that only allow very restricted access to select bunch of people! For someone like me, I only get the chance to go there once a year at mostâ¦
I know that so many other brand managers have been eyeing the opportunity to go to Crawford Mansion. Almost all of the men from the Crawford family are extremely rich and handsome elites.
If I could marry into the Crawford family⦠giving away the 500 thousand dollars and that gold bracelet for the talisman would be one of the best decisions I had ever made my life!
At the thought of the talisman, the lady rose to her feet and quickly prepared the bucket of water just as the man had told her.
As soon as the talisman was fully immersed in the water, something strange happened almost instantaneously.
The talisman flew out of the water and floated in mid-air for quite some time. The lady was so shocked that she hurriedly knelt down on the floor.
After making a full turn in the air, the talisman slowly descended and lay flat on the table.
The lady slowly looked up. Her eyes were bright with excitement.
Iâve heard about how amazing and powerful this practitioner is during one of my job assignments. I guess the stories Iâve heard are all true!
The lady couldnât help but ponder who she should choose tomorrow.
The eldest brother, Anthony Crawford, is the CEO of Crawford Holdings. He has two kids, but no one knows whoâs the mother of his children. If I pick him as my target, Iâll get to become the mistress of the Crawford family someday.
The second son, Liam Crawford, works as a designer according to rumors. People say that heâs a rather dull person, and he has two kids as well⦠I donât think heâs a good option le doesnât hold a high position, yet Iâll have to be the stepmother to his childrenâ¦
I havenât found any information about the third son except for the fact that heâs probably working as a pilot⦠He sounds like a somewhat alright choice.
The fourth brother, Jonas Crawford, is a famous actor. If I were to become his partner, I would definitely make the headlines every day.
Rumor has it that the fifth son is working as a contractor. Thatâs a big no-no! I couldnât comprehend why someone belonging to the Crawford family would choose that as their occupationâ¦
Iâll skip the sixth and seventh sons since thereâs barely any information I can find about these two men.
Chapter 390 Sweet Dreams Also, Iâve heard that the eighth son works as a physician. Hmm⦠Heâs considered acceptableâ¦
In a nutshell, Anthony, the CEO, is my best option! I hope I get to see him tomorrow!
A big grin was plastered across her face as the lady fell asleep that night.
Early morning the next day, Lilly woke up from a deep slumber and sat up in her bed.
âGood morning!â Polly flew over and rested on Lillyâs shoulder. âDo you know why you feel so tired?â
Lilly had always needed a few minutes to become fully awake in the morning. She turned her head and stared at Polly absently. âWhy?â
Polly rubbed its head against Lillyâs cheek. âThatâs because youâve been running through my mind all night!â
âOkay.â
Polly had an awkward expression upon getting such a mild response from Lilly.
At the same time, Bellflower was crouching outside the closed window and staring fiercely at Polly.
The parrot hopped onto Lillyâs head and called aloud. âSure! Come at me all you want! Try opening the window yourself and come at me!â
Lilly wasnât sure what was going on between her pets again. She gave a yawn and went into the bathroom. After washing herself and changing her clothes, she made her way downstairs. Polly stayed on top of her head the whole time.
Bryson was helping Bettany set up the table for breakfast. He spotted the still sleepy Lilly and the bird on her head.
Bryson let out a soft chuckle. âYouâre up so early. What do you want for breakfast? Iâll get it for you?â
Lilly subconsciously followed behind Bryson since she knew he was heading to the dining room as well.
Since she wasnât paying any attention in front of her, she did not stop when Bryson had put down the food and turned around to pick her up.
Lilly bumped into Brysonâs leg and clung to his trousers. She rubbed her reddened nose slightly and said pitifully, âUncle Bryson, why did you stop so suddenly Bryson beamed warmly at her. âAre you feeling hungry Lilly?â
Lilly nodded vigorously. âMhm! Mhm!â
Then, she quickly got into her seat and placed the napkin on her lap.
Lilly raised her hand and said, âUncle Bryson, I want to have some fried milk buns!â
Those were Lillyâs favorite food for breakfast. She could easily finish three of those buns in one sitting.
Bryson smiled widely as he couldnât help but find his nice adorable. He placed a few fried milk buns on Lillyâs plate.
Bettany joined them at the table as well. âChew slowly while you eat them. Someone will be bringing us some new clothes later. We need to get you ready for school since youâll be starting the day after tomorrow, Lilly. Once you do, youâll probably be having breakfast at school instead.â
Lillyâs eyes lit up. âOkay!â
Bettany noticed the excited look in Lillyâs eyes.
Hmm⦠She looks so happy. Is it because sheâs grown tired of the food I make?
Soon afterward. Anthony came downstairs to have breakfast as well. He didnât expect to see Lilly this early. in the morning. âLilly, you woke up so early today.â
Lilly had finished drinking half a glass of milk. âOf course! Itâs a good habit to wake up early in the morning!â
Anthonyâs gaze fell on Polly next. He said unsmilingly, Polly, get down.â
Polly spotted Bellflower which was crouching low on the floor behind Anthony, seemingly ready to pounce at it. He cried out, âCaw! No!â
There was a brief moment of silence as everyone was amused by the parrotâs bold response.
