Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 819

Anthony and the rest couldn't hear anything that was happening in the ward.

Lilly stared at the elevator door, emotions crowding her head.

Why were some people just so stubborn!

She had realized on her journey as a ghost catcher that there were some people who would just stubbornly remain in their own world regardless of anything, hellbent that their own views and opinions were right.

It seemed like close to no one wanted to accept any opinions that were different from their own.

Lilly turned the question on herself. Would she be able to accept a different opinion?

When she thought about it like that… she couldn't.

To the Reed children, they were certain that they were right and they were getting unfairly bullied.

To Lilly, she believed that the Reed children were just trying to hold their ground over a baseless point…

But if you were to turn that around and the Reed children didn't think they were being stubborn, she wouldn't feel like she brought them harm either…

It turned out that she, like everyone else, was a part of society with an individual mindset of her own.

The more she thought about this, Lilly turned to her father at once and shook her head hard.

She wasn't going to think so much anymore! Just like her dad said, she shouldn't overcrowd her little head!

"Grandpa, let me push you!"

They had arrived at the private hospital. Lilly put a hand on the stretcher, helping to push it along.

Despite her not actually helping much, Hugh was happy to see her there anyways.

No one knew that he had really just gone through hell.

That was such a cold place… there was no one around. You felt so scared, lonely and anxious.

This was the place his darling granddaughter had to go to everytime she went on one of her trips 'underground'...

Hugh's chest ached, but he smiled at the sight of Lilly. At least she wasn't in that cold, scary place underground now…

Hugh stayed in the hospital for a week, healing wonderfully under the care of the personal medical team. He was able to sit up, and eat normally by the end of that week.

The doctor of the team suggested another week in the hospital. Hugh was old, and those external injuries would take a little longer to heal.

It was definitely better to get better in the hospital before discharging at once.

Lilly, with the help of her father, found the traffic officer who had handled this case.

His name was Johnny Malloe.

Lilly put away the victim ghost. But she did not leave this time, observing silently from the back.

The Reed children showed up after that, wanting to complain about Johnny's bad attitude.

Despite the fact that the case had footage, a live witness (the florist) and photos taken from the scene, Johnny was still punished after many citizens complained.

The news of the incident spread to the authorities and various press and news channels. The Reed children did not get what they wanted in the end, but Johnny still made a public apology to them just to stop the public from spreading more rumors. He apologized for his lack of experience causing a misunderstanding, and not tending to the crowd's emotions enough…

"Uncle Johnny…" Lilly saw Johnny on duty, and went up to offer him a drink.

Johnny stopped short. "It's you! What are you doing here?"

He was ashamed and frustrated, but a police car was an officer's pride. It wouldn't be good to have it trashed…

"A lot of drivers who get stopped for breaking the rules aren't nice at all. Most of them are aggressive, some of them even spitting on me sometimes or yelling that I was attacking them."

That had happened way too many times.

But what choice did he have, aside from just letting it be?

"All you can do in these situations is keep your head down and bear through it, because we aren't allowed to get physical with citizens."

Synjin stroked Lilly's head kindly. "You should go home, kid. Sun's awful today. Thank you for the drink."

Lilly wanted to say something, but ended up remaining silent.

She could only leave quietly, watching him busy himself with work…

Then Lilly went to the Reed family.

Synjin had only been hospitalized for a week before getting discharged without having healed properly, as the medical bills were far too high.

Upon getting home, his children took care of him for a few days. But all of them had jobs to attend to and busy lives, and the old man ended up abandoned at home alone. His second son put food by his bed before going to work, and would only return at night. The old man ate and defecated on the same bed, letting out a horrible smell.

He lay on the bed, not knowing how this had happened to him. He didn't feel like he had done anything wrong, only wondering why he was in such a pitiful state at such an old age…

Hugh was around the same age as he was, but he was rich with children to take care of him, as well as a private medical team.

He didn't even have a single person to care for him.

Hugh's family was so rich and had gotten him into such a state, but wouldn't even compensate him the slightest bit of money…
