Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 1407

Inside the Crawford Mansion, the sound of Matthan crying could be heard.

Ivan snapped back to reality, put away the waterweeds, and said, "You go back first!"

Lilly nodded. "Okay, Ivan. You should go back soon, too."

She waved at him and suddenly remembered that she had promised to visit the Shaw family before going home last year and this year.

Ivan took a few steps, then turned back, hesitated for a moment, and said, "This year... can I come to your house to celebrate the New Year?"

Lilly waved her hand. "No!"

Ivan pursed his lips but then heard her say, "I'll go visit your parents!"

A glimmer of light appeared in Ivan's eyes as he nodded, and he watched as Lilly ran inside before turning around and leaving hurriedly.

...

Just as Bettany brought out a dish of meatballs, she saw Matthan, who had been playing happily, suddenly get up and run out!

Edward grabbed him. "You little troublemaker! Where are you going!"

Matthan shouted, "Let go! Let go! I want to go out! Ahh!"

Edward sneered. "What are you going out for? It's so cold outside. Only someone who's sick would go out..."

Before he finished speaking, Bettany, who was still full of energy, rushed out with a swoosh.

As she passed by him, she even slapped him on the head with her bare hands.

Edward was puzzled.

Anthony immediately stood up, picked up a thick and soft fur shawl, and followed her out.

Lisa bypassed the stumbling Matthan and rushed out. "Matthan, I'll go out first to check!"

Matthan was speechless.

Bettany walked quickly. With a snowstorm howling, all she could see in her eyes was a thin figure walking toward the door.

Lisa rushed out with her cotton slippers on. "It's Lilly!"

Bettany's nose tingled.

Lilly had grown taller and thinner. Last year, she still had a cute round face, but now she was starting to have a teenage girl's charm.

It was her baby! Her baby had come back.

Bettany stood at the door like a mother waiting for her child to come home on New Year's Eve and clasped her hands tightly. She was unable to hold back the tears in her eyes but with a joyful smile on her face.

She felt a bit cold, but because she was so happy, she temporarily forgot that she was only wearing thin clothes.

Anthony came out and draped the soft fur shawl over her as he whispered, "It's too cold outside. Let's go back and wait."

Bettany was as stubborn as a child. "No!"

Drake came out and picked up Matthan, who was running barefoot. Josh, Hannah, and Zachary all stuck their heads out.

Max and Gilbert also came out, while Liam and Bryson sat on the couch with Hugh. Hugh said, "Why are you going out? Just wait here. Going out in the cold at this age is asking for trouble and suffering..."

Bryson smiled warmly. "Yes. Yes."

In reality, the three of them couldn't sit still. They glanced at the door occasionally to see if they had returned.
