Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 524

Lilly already ate something, so she wanted to take a shower, but Bettany insisted it was more important for her to fill her stomach first. So she continued to eat. Everyone was putting food in her bowl; it was so full that Blake had to take another bowl to give her food. In a blink of an eye, the other bowl was full too. Lisa’s bowl was not as full, as it was not suitable for them to fill it up. But Bettany was putting food in her bowl too. Anthony put a piece of bacon in her bowl, and he said, "Eat it." Lisa looked at that bacon, and she took it and ate it. Lilly and Lisa were stuffing food into their mouths; they looked like two hamsters.

After finishing all the food in her bowls, Lilly leaned against her stomach and rubbed her round tummy. "Ah, I’m so full! Lisa also said the same, yet Bettany said, "No, your tummy isn’t round enough!" She did not dare make Lilly eat more, but she felt that Lisa could eat some more. Bettany gave her a bowl of soup and said, "Have more food; I don’t think you’re full yet." Lisa looked at the food and then at her stomach innocently, but she still finished up the food. Bettany was happy to see it. After three bowls, she was too full and refused to eat. Bettany nodded and said, "Alright, just one last bowl of soup!"

Everyone was amused, and Lilly decided to escape. "Granny, I’ll go take a shower!" Lisa wanted to follow her, but Bettany stopped her. "Finish this bowl; if not, you’ll be starving tonight." Lisa obediently gulped the soup, and she ran away. Her leg was not fully recovered, and she was losing her balance while she ran. Anthony was silent.

The Crawford family was lively and noisy for hours, and everyone settled down once Lilly fell asleep. Lisa stood on the balcony and looked at the tree. She wore cotton sleepwear; it was cold in the night, but they had heaters in their house. Lisa did not feel cold; she was staring into the night sky, and she could not smell her surroundings. Someone knocked on the door; it was Anthony. He walked in wearing casual sleepwear.

He walked up to her and asked, "What are you looking at?" She pointed at the soil underneath the tree. He looked in the same direction. He had been anxiously looking for Lilly all this time, and sometimes he would remember the moment she put the snow into his palm and confessed to him. And he recalled how she turned and walked away from him. His facial expression softened and he said, "This is for you." She was confused. She realised that he had given her a necklace; it was a shell-shaped necklace. There was something inside the necklace, and it was moving. And the light could pass through it. She looked at him in confusion, and he pointed at the shell and said, "Soil." She did not buy it. She knew that soil did not look like this.

Anthony took the necklace, and he put her hair aside to wear it on her neck. He stepped back and said after a while, "Welcome back." She stared at her for a long time. He asked, "Yes?" She put her hands out and said, "Hug..." She might still be blurred, but she could still express herself. And she was never afraid to express her feelings. He smiled, and he walked close to her and pulled her into his arms. Lisa felt content, and she patted his back like Lilly. She was trying to comfort him.

Anthony’s heartache, and he caressed her hair. "Good night," he said, "have a sweet dream." Yet he was not sure if she needed to sleep now. She let her go, and she said clearly, "Goodnight!" He left her room and went into Lilly’s room. Lilly was sleeping soundly, as if she had not slept well for long. And Polly was staying by her side. Anthony looked at it and said, "Aren’t you worried that she might squeeze you flat?" The birds could hardly sleep with their owner; they were too tiny. Polly ignored him, and it crawled next to Lilly’s face. Suddenly, Lilly shouted, "Hail me!" And… Polly was thrown outside by her.
