Chapter 807
Spoiled (Lily)
Bettany froze for a moment and said, âAlright. Granny will cook everything you want.â
After hanging up the phone, Bettany wiped the corners of her eyes. Lilly is back finally. I thought she would be back in a few days when I sent her off. I never expected that it would take a month. I couldnât even sleep well at night. I always dreamed that Lilly would get hurt. Itâs a good thing that sheâs back nowâ¦
Hugh hugged her shoulders to comfort her. âCome on, look at you. Youâre crying even when Lillyâs coming back. Hurry up and cook for her.â
Josh just opened the door and he heard Lillyâs name.
âWhat? Lilly is back?â
Drake, followed behind and turned around. Josh immediately asked, âDrake, where are you going?â
âWeâre out of salt, Iâm going to buy it,â Drake answered.
Zachary was also surprised by the news.
Anthony picked up the car key that he just placed on the table. âIâll go buy some vegetables!â
Bethany had already changed her clothes. âYou donât know anything about vegetables. You canât even recognize which one is fresh. Margaret and I should go.â
âIâll drive then.â
Josh was excited, âIâm going too! I want to buy something for Lilly! Are you going, Grandpa?â
Hugh waved his hand, âIâd rather watch the news at home.â
After they left, Hugh stood up and walked to the balcony. He looked at Apex Mountain in the distance.
Lilly has finally returned.
Hannah came back from school looking exhausted.
âWhy could everyone go with Lilly?â Hannah said unhappily.
âIâll send you there during the holidays,â Liam said.
Hannah nodded, âI will study properly.â She knew she couldnât help much by going. Drake could teach Lilly to read and write while Joshâs inventions could help Lilly to catch ghosts. Zachary could also help out Lilly to analyze her battle with the spirits. Iâm just an ordinary kid who canât do anything for Lilly.
Hannah thought that they would eventually be separated when they grew up someday. She needed to be good at something. She decided that she would learn to mine. One day, she would drill toward the core of the Earth to see if she could catch up with Lilly.

Lilly had just arrived downstairs while Josh came back at the same time.
âDrake!â Lilly leaped and hugged Drake.
âThis is for you.â Drake handed over ice cream. After Lilly took it, he gave the other one to Lisa.
âLilly!â Josh ran toward her excitedly. He gave Lilly a handbell, âHereâs a gift for you!â
Lilly was confused, âWhat is this?â
Josh explained, âWhen weâre on our way to the market, I saw an old man selling this in his stall. Itâs a corpse bell. Just hold it and shake it.â
âRingâ¦â
The bell emitted a clear ringing sound. The wind gusted in their direction and they could hear the clattering sound of the tree branches.
Josh was amazed, âWow, itâs true! The old man said the bell can manipulate corpses and zombies!
Awesome!â
Lilly was dumbfounded, âThank you, Josh.â
âYouâre welcome. Do you like it?â
âYes⦠I⦠like it.â
Zachary handed Lilly a bag, âHere, itâs for you. I passed by a stall just now and I felt that this little backpack suits you.â
Zachary thought that his gift was quite normal because women like bags regardless of age. The bag was white with a ruby magnetic clasp.
Lilly took it, âIt looks good.â
The harem spirit muttered, âI think this bag suits Mr. Blake more.â
