When Old Mrs. Crawford talked to Ashley, she just admitted that she was not feeling well.
Old Mrs. Crawford didn't see anything unusual about her, so she kept an eye on her and let her go back to rest.
At eight or nine o'clock at night, the sound of reading came from Lilly's room.
Drake put on a stern expression looking just like Anthony.
Josh was leaning on Lilly's dresser fiddling with his video recorder.
At the desk, Lilly was holding a textbook with both hands above her head.
Hannah was reading the poem in the textbook out loud.
Drake looked at her hopelessly.
What she read out loud was different from the textbook. She was simply saying some random words.
Drake said sternly, “Did you remember what I taught you just now?”
Hannah looked at her brother's serious face, which was even scarier than her father.
She pulled a long face and said, "Yes.”
Josh smirked, "All of them?"
Hannah panicked, “Yes! Yes! Yes!”
Drake narrowed his eyes, “Good, I’ll test you.”
He did not require her to get all of them correct. Just two would be enough.
Lilly looked at Drake and Hannah back and forth.
Drake is so fierce! Hannah looked at Lilly for help for answers.
Before she could say anything, Drake glared at her.
Lilly quickly shut her mouth and signaled Hannah to think for the answer herself.
Hannah racked her brain but she still answered wrongly with hints given by Drake.
Drake was so angry that he quit teaching Hannah. What the hell?
“Ask Uncle Liam to teach you!”
Hannah cried pitifully, "No please, my dad is very angry with me. He could have a heart attack if I go to him again.”
Drake sneered, "You knew that too?"
I will not teach her anymore!
Lilly covered her mouth and snickered while Hannah looked at her for help.
Lilly pleaded for Hannah, "Drake, Hannah knew her mistakes. Teach her again and she’ll answer it correctly.”
Fine… five more minutes!

“Learn it by yourself!”
After five minutes, Drake threw the book and left.
Hannah answered wrongly again.
