Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily) novel Chapter 1548

The Crawford Mansion was silent. Edward opened the door, looked around, and mumbled, "So quiet."

Anthony also happened to come out and, upon seeing him, asked, "What are you doing?"

Edward scratched his nose. "Nothing, it's just suddenly too quiet. I can't shake off the feeling that Lilly has been kidnapped or something."

Anthony quirked a brow and thought it was coincidental that they shared the same vibe. The brothers exchanged a glance and immediately headed toward Lilly's room. However, when they arrived at her door, they halted.

This won't do! Lilly was now a 15-year-old girl. It was inappropriate of them to knock on her door late at night. Moreover, what if they stirred her from her slumber?

"Anthony, maybe we're being too overprotective," Edward said with a sense of guilt. "I often find students and kids online complaining about parents with no sense of boundaries."

Anthony turned silently. "Let's go."

However, when the pair of brothers arrived at the doors to their rooms, they still couldn't resign, unable to shake off the feeling that their baby Lilly had been taken away. If they didn't check it, wouldn't they just be being reckless?!

So, they returned to Lilly's door and contemplated how to approach this.

"Knock softly," Edward said, "at a volume that won't wake her up if she's asleep."

At that, he reached out…

Anthony grabbed his wrist, shaking his head. "Let's forget it."

Lilly could handle herself now. She had proven herself capable in the Nether, defeating the Manifestation of God's will and becoming the new Lord of the Nether. When it came to matters of the heart, she would surely manage well, knowing what to do and what not to.

With that, Anthony and Edward returned to their respective rooms. However, standing in front of their doors, they continued to feel uneasy. Not checking on Lilly made them anxious. What if Ivan came to steal their beloved niece away in the middle of the night?!

Just then, Gilbert also came down from the third floor. Seeing his two brothers standing before their respective rooms and taking a few steps towards Lilly's room only to retreat again, repeating the process several times…

"What are you guys doing?" he asked.

Edward sighed. "Nothing. We just think it's too quiet. It makes us uneasy. It's like Lilly has been taken away."

Gilbert's eyes widened, and the three brothers exchanged glances.

"F*ck! You have the same feeling too, don't you?!" Edward exclaimed, "Something's definitely not right!"

Lilly had definitely been taken away from them if all three shared the same feeling. At that, the three brothers rushed to Lilly's door again.

"I'll knock." Edward reached out his hand, but Gilbert stopped him, grabbing his hand. "Let me do it. You're rough."

Anthony held back Gilbert instead. "Let's just forget it."
