Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 157 Jean Returns to the Crawford Family

Jean flew out with a whoosh and hung on the top of an osmanthus tree.

A little bird was frightened and flew away with a screech, dropping a pile of poop.

Jean, “…”

She took back the thought just now!

This was not a heart-warming padded jacket, this was an air leak… Wait a second, did she just leave

Gemma’s body?

Jean floated up quickly, and found that she was inseparable from the host no matter how hard she

struggled before, but now she was free.

She flew towards Lilly with a wow, “I never thought you would be so powerful!”

Lilly had an expression of ‘of course’.

The delighted two did not notice that there was an evil energy approaching…

Pablo frowned and looked around, only to see a dozen to twenty ghosts gradually gathered outside the

Crawford family mansion.

These ghosts stared at the shining golden Jean, their eyes sparkling.

Pablo thought to himself, this better not be like what he imagined it to be…

Jean’s scattered soul fragments must have been ‘divided’ by the surrounding ghosts by accident…

Lilly did not notice the ghosts in the distance, she pulled Jean, and quickly ran toward old Mrs.

Crawford

“Grandma, we’re back!” The little girl threw herself into old Mrs. Crawford’s arms.

Jean was also pulled into old Mrs. Crawford’s arms.

Old Mrs. Crawford stretched out her arms to hug Lilly, and Jean also felt as if she was being hugged.

“Baby, you’re back!” The inexplicable vicissitudes and loneliness disappeared from her just now, and

there was a kind smile on her face.

Jean did not know why, but her nostrils were warm, and tears streamed down.

“Strange, why am I still crying…” Jean hurriedly wiped away her tears, but the golden light rolled——

As a ghost, whether it was crying tears or bleeding, both were typically evil in nature.

However, Jean was amazing, the tears she shed were not evil spirits but blessings.

Lilly remembered what Master said, after finding her mother, she should be sent to reincarnate.

She was a little sad, but after thinking about it, her mother brought a lot of blessings to reincarnate, and

she must be a very blessed person in the future.

It was also a blessing!

Thinking of this, Lilly became happy again, and asked, “Grandma, I’m hungry! Mom was hungry too!”

Old Mrs. Crawford heard her mention her mother again, thinking that Lilly must miss her mother again,

so she patted her little head.

“Okay, then Lilly and mother are going to eat, okay?”

Lilly cheered, pulled Jean, and ran away, after running two steps, she remembered about her new

sister, and so she turned back to pull Gemma along too.

Gemma did not expect Lilly’s home to be so big and luxurious, like a palace, she was astonished.

“Uh, I have sent Lilly back safely, so I shall go back first…” She said.

Unexpectedly, Lilly ran to her, grabbed her, and ran away, “Sister, eat, eat!”

Her new sister brought her mother back, she deserved this meal!

Gemma quickly said, “No, you really don’t have to…”

Right at this time, a glowing green parrot flew out, fluttering its wings and shouting, “If you don’t work

hard, you have a problem with your brain! Those who make food have a soul, and those who cook are

all masters~”

Gemma, “…”

Blake said, “Since you are already here, the butler will send you back after dinner.”

Old Mrs. Crawford was looking at Blake suspiciously, and asked, “This is?”

Lilly said, “Grandma, this is the sister who brought my mother back, my new sorority sister!”

She waved to Gemma, “Sister, come along, you can call her grandma!”

Then Anthony came by, Lilly said again, “This is uncle, you can call him uncle!”

The corner of Gemma’s mouth twitched.

You don’t have to, you don’t have to…

Blake had his hands on old Mrs. Crawford’s wheelchair, and while pushing her into the room, he

explained what happened just now.

Old Mrs. Crawford did not think about it too much, but Anthony’s heart tightened——

Did Lilly say that Gemma brought Jean back?

Then…

Anthony looked at the top of Gemma’s head calmly.

Gemma kept her smile on.

There was a lot of panic in her heart, ‘Why does this family always look at my head?’

Lilly was a cute little girl. Her family could not be some perverted maniac, that wanted to cut off her

head, right?

This house was so luxurious, it looked like a palace in Central Europe… Could they be vampires?

Gemma felt even more uneasy at this thought. She held the door and refused to enter, and said in a

panic, “I, I remembered that I hadn’t finished the homework assigned by my professor. I’m going home

to do my homework!”

As she spoke, she patted her satchel, indicating that she really had to do her homework.

Lilly pulled her with great strength, “Sister, don’t worry, you can write here too!”

The little girl’s voice was so sweet, and she was a little swayed when she called her sister.

Gemma looked at Lilly, hesitating. Did she think too much…

Edward, who had a dark face and a fierce look, just came out of the room.

Gemma, “No, no need for that, it seems that I left my homework at home…”

Lilly glanced at her satchel suspiciously. Did she not just say that her homework was in the bag?

Anthony took out a business card and handed it to her.

“I’m Anthony from the Crawford Holdings, don’t worry… our family won’t sell you.”

Gemma’s thought process was busted. She looked at the business card again, Anthony, the President

of the Crawford Holdings…

She was shocked, it turned out to be the Crawford family!

She was a junior this year, and it was time for an internship. The classmates were all discussing the

future and prospects of each company.

Crawford Holdings was a company that everyone dreamt of but was difficult to enter.

Yesterday she also said to her crush, “It would be great if I could go to Crawford Holdings for an

internship”.

She totally did not expect to meet the President of Crawford Holdings today!

Gemma was dumbfounded.

She stuttered and apologized, “Yes, I’m sorry, I, I didn’t mean that…”

In the meantime, all the ghosts outside the mansion surrounded, and were all staring at Jean.

Lilly was shocked. She looked at Pablo, but Pablo made a “shh” gesture.

She had no choice but to pretend that she did not see them, and dragged Gemma into the door.

**

In the dining room.

Drake was holding the cutlery gracefully, eating slowly.

Next to him was Zachary, who buried his head in his meal without making a sound.

Josh sat across from Drake, and he ate very fast, his cheeks were bulging when he raised his head.

He raised his head when he heard the voice, and said happily, “My sister is back!”

Turns out, when he looked up, he saw a girl standing in front of her, followed by a bunch of ghosts.

Some of these ghosts had eyeballs hanging from their sockets, and some had a piece of skin missing

from their mouths, revealing rotting gums.

Some were clutching their open stomachs, and there was a ghost baby hanging in their stomachs.

Some were old women, wearing dark purple shrouds and leaning on crutches, who grinned at Josh

when they saw him…

More and more ghosts poured in, as if feeling Josh’s gaze, all of them twisted their eyeballs stiffly,

looking at Josh weirdly…

Josh suddenly spewed out the food in his mouth.

Drake and Zachary, who were sitting across from each other, were both attacked, their faces were

sprayed with grains and vegetable dregs…

“……”

Did he have to be so excited just to see their sister return?
