Blake had just been leaning on the side of Bettany's rocking chair, when he stood up instinctively.
They hadn't noticed Lilly's things coming out, thinking that she had taken them out from her bag…
He lowered his voice at once. "Lilly, take the stone out!"
Lilly did not really understand, but obediently took out the stone as she looked at Blake. "Daddy, what's going on…"
Was the Palace of The Ruler of Hell not good?
Before Blake could speak, Anthony lowered his voice and said, "Don't let other people see that your Palace of The Ruler of Hell can hold things, alright?"
Lilly nodded. "I understand that, but Daddy, Uncle Anthony and everyone else aren't outsiders."
That was why she didn't hide it.
She didn't expose anything when she was outside just now, this was still something she understood!
The rocks in Edward's hands fell with a clatter.
The palm-sized rocks had been broken off the giant rock by Lilly.
He had not expected that space would actually exist.
Edward could not get over this shocking fact. He stared at the rocks, and then at Lilly's Palace of The Ruler of Hell pendant. He felt as if he was living in a novel.
Just then, Jack came in. "Sir, there's someone claiming to be Blake's niece saying that she'd like to see Old Mrs. Crawford."
Blake's gaze grew cold.
Anthony did not even hesitate. "No."
Lilly raised her head all of a sudden, glancing at the front door.
"No, Uncle Anthony, we've got to see her."
Blake lifted Lilly into his arms. "Let's go upstairs. We'll let Uncle Anthony handle this."
Lilly: Huh? Wait…
She wanted to see herself!
She could sense a familiar aura!
Pablo squinted slightly, lowering his voice. "It's the aura of that traitor. The nerve to show up here in person."
He could not figure out what this person was here for, and said, "Lilly, listen to your Dad. Go upstairs for now."
It was unclear what the situation was like right now. The best thing to do was to hide and observe for the time being.
"It's easier to dodge an arrow you can see compared to a hidden one. Got it?" Pablo wanted to impart some deep wisdom on being wary of what traitors could be capable of doing.
Lilly nodded. "I've got it, Master. So we're going to hide, and shoot the traitor with arrows!"
Pable: ……
That, that wasn't wrong…
Outside the door, Yena and her mother held back their overwhelming emotions as they walked in together.
It was hard to not be overwhelmed.
First of all, it was near impossible for anyone else to step foot into the Crawford household.
Second of all, the Crawford household was huge, almost like a palace… It definitely made one nervous being there.
Yena's mother snuck a glance around her. The Crawford territory really was huge.
Forget the garden in the front and back of the house. They even had their own little forest, with waterfalls and statues…
Yet everything was done modestly, with hints of luxury here and there. She could not describe what kind of aesthetic it was.
It was just that there was this giant rock on the wide grassy plain in front of the main building, with a jacket covering one of the rock's edges… it looked a little out of place.
