Lilly hugged Hugh’s arm obediently and asked, “Grandpa, are you unwilling to bring me there?”
Hugh pursed his lips. When Lilly became quiet and sensible, she always made people feel distressed.
He sighed and answered, “Yes.”
Lilly was like a delicate flower that he guarded with all his heart, and he did not want others to see her. However, thinking back to the past, he also protected Jean. In the end, she passed away regretfully without seeing the outside world.
So, Hugh wanted to bring all the prosperity in the world to Lilly and let her see a wider world.
Lilly leaned against Hugh. She pondered, then asked, “Grandpa, what does God of Battle mean?”
Hugh replied, “It means heroes who fought very hard. They defended our country like a patron saint. We can live in a peaceful country now because of the bloodshed and sacrifice of patron saints like them.”
Although Hugh thought Blake was not a good person, he could not deny that Blake was respectable. Hugh would not hide Blake’s achievement from Lilly.
Lilly asked again, “Does that mean a good guy?”
Hugh looked at her and smiled. “At least he isn’t bad.”
He agreed to go to the MacNeil family, as they wanted to see what Blake could do.
If Blake wanted to return or recognize the MacNeil family, the Crawford family would not let Lilly go there.
The style of the MacNeil family was unsuitable for Lilly to live in, even for half a day.
Lilly was thinking about another question. Battle?
She asked suspiciously, “Grandpa, we don’t have a battle now!”
She only saw battles on TV, which were from movies.
Hugh patted Lilly’s shoulder kindly. “Battle in a peaceful era isn’t a battle ordinary people can see.”
They could only have peace after battles. There was no quiet time. It was someone who blocked the gunfire from behind to protect the peace.
Lilly only understood a bit. Her Battle Daddy did not seem bad, so she wanted to meet him. She wanted to see if Blake was as tall as in her dream that he slammed into the door frame every time he entered.
She also wondered whether Blake let her ride around his neck. She believed Blake, who defended the people, should be a good father instead of being the same as Stephen.
…
When Kevin returned to the MacNeil family, Giuliana happened to be in the living room on the first floor. She asked curiously, “How is the Crawford family’s reaction? Are they happy?”
Kevin only sent invitations to those with political ties, but the Crawford family was an exception.
Kevin answered respectfully, “Madam, the invitation has been delivered. But Mr. Crawford didn’t seem very happy and kicked me out.”
He paused, then continued, “Maybe it’s because we didn’t see that little girl the day before yesterday, so they bear a grudge! The Crawford family has always doted on that little girl.”
He paused, then continued, “Maybe it’s because we didn’t see that little girl the day before yesterday, so they bear a grudge! The Crawford family has always doted on that little girl.”
Giuliana frowned and felt upset. She thought the Crawford family was narrow-minded. She had heard that Lilly went to play at school, and Anthony let her go to class.
Then, somehow a teacher offended Lilly, and the school fired that teacher and revoked her teaching qualification.
“Sooner or later, she will be spoiled by them.” Giuliana snorted coldly. “With such an arrogant personality, I’ll never let her enter the MacNeil family.”
Her fourth grandson, Leo, was indeed more romantic and had also been to play in South City. But even if Lilly was Leo’s child, Giuliana did not want to acknowledge Lilly.
Giuliana even thought Lilly was ineligible to enter the MacNeil family until Leo married and gave birth to the eldest child.
She ordered Kevin, “You may go now! Re-plan the yard and separate several areas. Remember to bring all the officials into the house and the celebrities in the business circle to the yard. As for the Crawford family, let them be in the last peripheral.”
Giuliana was so proud now. She felt she was from an influential family, and Blake was Dudroinia’s God of Battle. She believed no other family could compare with the MacNeil family.
So she even dared to ignore the Crawford family.
…
Time passed in the blink of an eye. Today was Giuliana’s birthday banquet.
Anthony set off with Lilly. Lilly wore a simple white dress like a lovely little flower. As soon as they left the car, they saw Melody and Ivan waiting at the door.
Anthony greeted and asked, “Mr. Shaw didn’t come?”
Melody responded, “He has an urgent mission and isn’t in the country.”
After saying that, she looked at Lilly and smiled. “The MacNeil family is arrogant and may embarrass the Crawford family. So I wait for you two here.”
The Shaw family was from the orthodox military department. Everyone in Clodston knew the MacNeil family only respected the people related to politics.
Anthony’s voice was flat, but he politely refused. “Thank you. You don’t need to help us.”
Melody waved. “You don’t need my help, but Lilly is different! She’s a cute little girl, right?”
She fondled Lilly’s braid.
Lilly shook her head. “No, Aunty! I’m not cute!” She could break the railing with her bare hands and swing a sledgehammer.
