Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily) novel Chapter 144

As Lilly looked around Flynn’s stall of antique curiosities, he sipped on his tea and sneered at Lilly.

What’s a little girl doing here pretending that she’s an antique expert?

All of a sudden, Lilly took a yellow object and smashed it against the ground.

“What are you doing, Lilly?” Bettany yelled in horror.

“I’m testing it, Grandma,” said Lilly matter-of-factly.

“You don’t test things by smashing them.”

“This is a tree resin from a specific tree. If it is a century old as it says here, it will never break. See?” Lilly recited what Pablo taught her.

Flynn raised his eyebrows. It sure seemed like Lilly was an expert here. Lilly picked whatever she fancied and put them in the basket Anthony prepared for her.

Both Anthony and Lilly were enjoying their moment until they heard the familiar voice. “Mr. Crawford! You’re here!”

Priscilla looked at Anthony as if she just discovered a treasure. So full of joy she was that she failed to realize Flynn was there.

Before Flynn could say anything, Anthony rebuked Priscilla’s advance. “Are you done? We are not accepting your apology. We will not press charges either. So stop pestering us.”

“But the preschool fired me. All because I failed to look after Lilly,” said Priscilla with teary eyes.

Anthony mocked, “You were fired because you were found dating three men at once. You set a bad example for the kids. It has nothing to do with Lilly.”

Bettany rolled her eyes. “You’re shameless, aren’t you?”

“But I…” Priscilla said weakly.

“I know what you want. Your apology is not genuine,” added Bettany.
