Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 488

Lilly was now relieved and happily dashed downstairs, throwing herself into Bettany's arms.

"Good morning, Grandma!" Lilly lifted her head and hugged Bettany affectionately. "I obediently faced the wall and thought about my mistakes last night. Isn't that great?"

Bettany could not help but find it amusing. How seriously did she think about her mistakes? She patted Lilly's head and replied, "That's wonderful! Our Lilly is the best. Now hurry up and eat!"

"It's cold outside, so you need to have something warm... I've made soy milk, and it's still warm"

The Crawford family seldom had Western-style breakfasts like pastries, salads, and sandwiches. Bettany believed in the benefits of a hot breakfast, especially soy milk, steamed buns, porridge, and meats, which were nourishing and healthy.

Lilly skipped over to the dining room and obediently greeted everyone, "Good morning, Grandpa, good morning, Uncle Anthony and Aunt Lisa!"

All eyes were on Lilly ever since she appeared, observing her as she greeted Bettany.

Lisa held the drumstick tightly in her hand, gazing down at it for a moment. Then, with effort and clumsiness, she managed to utter, "Go...morning."

Lilly corrected her, saying, "It's good morning,"

The little girl's voice had a soft and gentle ending sound, sounding sweet and mellow.

Lisa stared at Lilly's mouth, her lips twitching, and finally managed to say, "Good… Morning,"

It took her a while, but she seemed astonished by her own words.

Lilly immediately gave her a thumbs up without hesitation, exclaiming, "That's right! Aunt Lisa is really smart, you're even smarter than Polly!"

Lisa, holding the chicken leg in her left hand and the steamed bun in her right hand, looked at Lilly's radiant smile with a hint of surprise.

She tried her best to smile, but unfortunately, she could not make an expression.

She simply stored the words, "good morning" in her memory, secretly acknowledging her progress.

Anthony handed a cup of soy milk to Lilly, adding a spoonful of sugar, and said gently, "Here you go!"

Lilly eagerly took the cup, exclaiming, "Wow, it's delicious!"

Lisa silently thought to herself, "I think I know what this means,"

As Lilly took a few sips of the soy milk, she turned her head and noticed that her two older brothers had already come downstairs. With the soy milk still in her mouth, she waved enthusiastically at them.

Lisa was silent for a moment, her gaze fixed on Josh as he approached, and finally, she clumsily uttered, "Good... morning."

Time flew by, and as the weather grew colder, the dining table at the Crawford household became adorned with an array of sumptuous dishes like roasted lamb, steak, braised pork, and even chicken soup.

The Crawford family members were getting rounder and Lisa was rapidly gaining weight.

She ate everything Bettany served her, without any hesitation. Within just two weeks, her once skinny 5.6-foot, 154-pound frame had ballooned to 187 pounds.

"33 pounds in two weeks!" Bettany exclaimed, observing the changes with satisfaction.

Bellflower, who was busy grooming herself, halted in her tracks upon hearing those words. She turned her attention to the scale.

She understood the words "33 pounds"!

A month ago, the old lady had put her on the scale, cheerfully announcing that she weighed 33 pounds, emphasizing that a cat had to be chubby to be adorable!

Polly bobbed his head and chuckled, saying, "Eat happily, grow like a pig! If the pig can't put on weight, eat some more!"

With a swift motion, Bettany flung a slipper in Polly's direction.

Polly swiftly took flight, squawking, "Do not hit the bird!"
