Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 959

After closing the door, Violet's discomfort gradually turned into anger.

What did it mean that she was destroying someone's family?

There was nothing wrong with pursuing the things and people she liked.

It wasn't the ancient times anymore. As an independent woman of the new century, what was wrong with bravely pursuing her true love?

Besides, Anthony was not married!

She heard that the Crawford family had initially planned a wedding for Anthony and Lisa.

But then, it abruptly came to a halt, and there was no further news about it.

Violet felt that it must be the old lady of the Crawford family who was dissatisfied with Lisa...

For so long, she hadn't heard her mention having a daughter-in-law or anything like that. Yet Lisa shamelessly continued to live with the Crawford family.

She was relying on the fact that Anthony now liked her. When Anthony grew tired of her, she would become even more proactive and straightforward...

At that time, she would let everyone know that she had someone she liked, and that was Anthony.

So, right now, she was waiting for love. She disliked how Yash acted like he knew everything and gave her advice.

If she heard him blabbering again, she would slap him right in the face and see if he would still have anything to say!

As the night passed, the sun, like a giant light bulb, illuminated the entire world. Birds chirped on the branches, chattering about the latest avian news.

Polly had somehow flown onto an outer branch, engaged in a spirited debate with four other birds.

"Granny, good morning!" Lilly came downstairs, radiating energy and vitality.

With a rosy complexion and sparkling eyes, she was a picture of purity and clarity.

Bettany smiled warmly. "You're up early today, Lilly!"

Gilbert set aside his tablet and joined them in the dining room. Speaking gently, he said, "Are you hungry, Lilly?"

Josh promptly pulled out a chair. "Lilly, sit here!"

Lilly obediently thanked him and greeted Gilbert before taking her seat. Like a little adult, she sighed, "Hannah and Zachary are being lazy again!"

Drake removed fish bones for her, placing the deboned fish in a bowl in front of her. He calmly remarked, "It's Saturday today, so they can be lazy."

Lilly stuck out her tongue, recalling Drake's sternness. Whenever Hannah and Zachary refused to get up, Drake would simply stand at the door, and they would obediently rise.

Drake was no less formidable than their grandmother at times—quite intimidating.

"Drake, I can do it myself!" Lilly grabbed a piece of fish and said, "I'm six years old now. If my classmates found out my big brother still picks out fish bones for me, they'd make fun of me."

Drake's expression remained unchanged. "What do other people's opinions have to do with us?"

Lilly fell silent.

Fine!

He picked for her, and she would pick for him.

The siblings helped each other remove fish bones, transferring them between their bowls.

Drake sighed, somewhat helpless. "Lilly..."

Lilly giggled. "Drake, I'm not a three-year-old baby anymore. When kids grow up, they become independent."

"Heh..." Gilbert chuckled softly. "You're still a child yourself."

A child who spoke of independence, Gilbert couldn't help but find it amusing and perplexing.

Gilbert leisurely enjoyed his breakfast, listening to Lilly and her two brothers chatting away. The three siblings were all smiles, happily chatting. Lilly and Josh were the most talkative, while Drake diligently picked out fish bones.

Bettany asked, "Lilly, you transferred here just a few days ago. Are you adjusting well?"

Lilly nodded. "Of course, Granny. There's nowhere I can't adapt to."

Bettany laughed, but her heart ached after the laughter subsided.

Ah, there's nowhere she can't adapt to. It meant she had been to too many places and experienced too much hardship.

It was heart-wrenching...
