Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 21

Hugh stared at Winona coldly.

There was a hint of gentleness when he was speaking with Hannah but not anymore.

“Liam, take her back, so she can reflect on her mistakes.”

Hugh was already restraining himself. He didn’t reprimand Winona in front of everyone.

The other people didn’t know what he meant, except for Winona and Helen. Hugh probably wanted them to get a divorce.

Helen started to persuade Hugh, “Calm down. Winona only did that because she loved her daughter. It wasn’t on purpose. She is Hannah’s mother after all.” Helen was saying it with a smile, but she wasn’t happy either.

Winona was so embarrassed and stopped her mother. Then, she turned around and left. Helen followed behind her.

When they left the place, Helen started complaining again. “See? I told you they are biased. They are both children. How could they target their criticisms at Hannah? Hannah must be feeling aggrieved! They didn’t even scold Lilly. If this goes on, Hannah might be chased out of the family!”

Winona was annoyed. She said angrily, “Mom, stop talking. Just leave!”

Helen left while mumbling to herself.

Winona walked alone while wiping away her tears. She thought she didn’t do anything wrong, and that it was the Crawford family who was biased.

Winona was trying to suppress her grief, but she saw two people outside the mansion. A security guard wanted to look for the butler and walked past her. Winona stopped him immediately and asked, “What’s going on?”

The security guard replied, “There are two people outside claiming to be Lilly’s parents… I’m about to tell the butler.”

Winona was shocked. She was wondering whether it was Lilly’s biological father. She heard about the Hatcher family from South City. After Lilly caused her stepmom’s miscarriage, her biological father, Stephen, got angry and beat Lilly. The Crawford family bankrupted him immediately after that.

An idea flashed across Winona’s mind. She wanted everyone to know what kind of person Lilly was. A person who despised the poor since she followed her uncles and abandoned her own grandparents and biological father.

Winona said, “Let them in.”

The guard was stunned, “Mrs. Crawford, are you sure I shouldn’t inform Old Mr. Crawford?”

Winona frowned and said, “Am I no longer important here?”

Winona and the children were the ones who stayed in Crawford Mansion. The other people didn’t come back as often. To some extent, she could be seen as the decision-maker here.

Stephen and Debbie had their wish granted as they stepped into Crawford Mansion. They were the social elites in South City but stepping into the luxurious mansion humbled them.

Debbie said gently, “Stephen, Lilly’s grandfather’s house is so luxurious. You are Lilly’s biological father. She couldn’t ignore you no matter what.”

“You don’t have to hide anymore if the Crawford family is willing to help you. Perhaps you can even live with Lilly.”
