Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 450

Nightmare was feeling better than a few days ago, and Lilly Crawford's prescription worked.

When Bettany Levine called it to eat, it reluctantly took small steps forward, seemingly afraid of food.

Its stomach had been scorched by rat poison, and eating was no longer a joyful experience for it.

Bettany Levine put down the food bowl, used her left hand to scoop Nightmare closer. She held a spoon in her right hand, stuffing spoonfuls of rice into Nightmare's mouth.

"Eat more, Lilly Crawford prescribed the medicine for you. Look, you've been feeling much better these past few days."

"Not eating will only make your stomach ache more. Eat well, and in a few days, your stomach will surely feel better."

"Lilly Crawford weighed you, and with your size, this bowl of food is definitely no problem. You must finish it."

With each sentence, she fed the dog a spoonful of food.

Granny fed the dog, mouthful after mouthful.

Nightmare: "..."

It had to swallow, with more than half the bowl inside its stomach, it couldn't eat anymore.

Bettany Levine persisted, "Full? No, you're not full!"

After saying that, she pried open its mouth and continued to feed.

Nightmare: "..."

Hugh Crawford: "..."

He chuckled and was speechless. Old Mrs. Crawford had too much time on her hands, it seemed.

But he didn't dare say it directly.

Hugh Crawford stood up, stretched his waist, and walked over to Bettany Levine. Seeing her working so hard, he picked up the bowl from the ground to help her.

The two elderly people, with vigor and enthusiasm, squatted by the doorway to feed the dog.

Nightmare had a look of despair but finally finished the bowl of medicinal bone broth rice.

After spending so much time together, Bettany Levine hadn't noticed that Nightmare's fur had become slightly glossier than a few days ago. It also appeared stronger and more robust.

"You're still too thin," Bettany Levine shook her head. "Should I add a little more?"

Nightmare: "..."

It turned its head and looked towards Bailey, who was basking in the sun with squinted eyes.

Bailey turned its head and said, "Don't look at me, I can't eat anymore either."

Just then, Nightmare's two ears suddenly perked up, and its previously gentle expression turned fierce in an instant. It stared at the door with sharp eyes.

Bettany Levine turned her head to look but found nothing.

"What are you looking at?" she asked curiously.

Nightmare suddenly stood up and started barking wildly, even the usually submissive Bailey adopted an aggressive posture.

Hugh Crawford exclaimed, "What's happening?"

The dogs barked fiercely in the direction of the door, but there was no one there.

This eerie scene made Bettany Levine feel anxious. She had a lingering feeling that someone or something would appear before her in the next moment.

Hugh Crawford whispered, "Let's go inside."

He called Jack, who brought the security guards to inspect the entire Crawford Mansion, but they found nothing unusual.

Hugh Crawford reassured, "It's broad daylight now, there's nothing to worry about. Don't overthink it."

Bettany Levine nodded in agreement, but her heart remained uneasy.

Even though it was midday, the weather had turned cold, and despite the brilliant sunshine outside, there was an eerie chill inside the house.

Nightmare was barking outside. Crawford Mansion was spacious enough to keep both dogs outside.

Bettany Levine looked up and met a pair of eyes, causing her heart to skip a beat. Then she asked, "Bellflower, what are you crouching here for?"

Bellflower stared down the corridor, emitting a deep growl from her throat warning of something.
