Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily) novel Chapter 135

Hugh frowned, and he said coldly, “Is the surveillance system really broken?”

Anthony handed the investigation report to Hugh.

“According to regulations, public kindergartens are required to install surveillance devices in public areas to ensure that incidents involving children can be investigated. However, there is no requirement to install such devices inside classrooms.”

“Animaux International Kindergarten is a private kindergarten that leans toward the idea of reducing surveillance while putting more trust in the teachers. The public areas are installed with surveillance devices, but the surveillance devices in the classroom have always been in a damaged state.”

Hugh coldly slammed the investigation report on the table.

“Continue with the investigation! Nothing can stop the Crawford family from investigating for the truth!”

Upstairs, Lilly leaned over the table, and she stroked Polly’s feather.

Lilly asked softly, “Master, why are those people like that?”

Pablo replied, “The world is filled with darkness, noise, and chaos. We can’t control what other people say.”

The public had different views. Many people chose to follow the views blindly.

People would tend to believe that what they saw was the truth, but they were unaware that sometimes what they saw was intentionally revealed by others for them to see.

Lilly felt wronged, and she said, “I didn’t do anything wrong.”

Lilly would hit Ray if it happened again.

This was the first time Lilly experienced online harassment, and she did not understand why the world operated in this manner.

Lilly did not understand why people were saying things as if they were true, even though she did not do anything wrong.

Sometimes, Lilly was even confused if she had done those things…

…

Blake stood at the door, silently watching the unhappy Lilly.

In the end, Lilly is hurt…

Blake turned around, and he left. He changed expressionlessly into black clothes, leaving the Crawford Mansion at night.

The kindergarten was lacking in terms of the surveillance system.

However, there could be satellite surveillance monitoring the kindergarten’s area.

Satellite surveillance was unlike the typical surveillance system. The satellite surveillance was in the hands of the officials to maintain public order.

Satellite surveillance offered a high resolution. It could zoom in to the point of seeing the bird’s nest on a tree.

Blake could utilize his authority to check on the satellite surveillance nearby. He might be able to piece together the incident if he were lucky.

Nothing could stop Blake!

…

After the incident went viral, the other siblings of the Crawford family hurried back home when they learned that Lilly was being cyberbullied.

Gilbert was infuriated. He could not imagine that his well-behaved niece was framed in such a manner!

Edward was so angry that he smashed a dent in the car hood.

The film industry’s golden boy, Jonas, stood up for Lilly. It attracted many haters…

Everyone gathered in the study. Anthony forbade them from disturbing Lilly.

No one wanted their emotions to affect Lilly.

Edward stared angrily, “Brother, are we going to leave it like this? I will find that old lady, and I will beat her to death.”

Jonas crossed his arms, and he pushed his glasses up, “Count me in.”

Anthony said coldly, “The public opinion is heated. We need to take things one at a time. Don’t act recklessly.”

The opposing side could always retaliate no matter what the Crawford family did, putting the Crawford family in a challenging spot.

The Crawford family could not resort to murder either.

If the Crawford family went against the law, that would prove the public’s opinion correct.

The Crawford family would not allow that to happen.

Without surveillance footage, even if the Crawford family were to threaten the old lady into changing her story, the public would not believe it. The people would continue to say hurtful things about Lilly.

Anthony did not want Lilly to get hurt anymore…

The Crawford family’s brothers were fuming with anger.

…

Lilly remained depressed inside the room.

Lilly was taught many pearls of wisdom, but she could not make sense of the world.

Pablo sat cross-legged in front of Lilly, and he asked, “Lilly, do you have the courage to defend yourself?”

Lilly raised her head, and she asked, “Can I?”

Pablo continued, “You have to believe in yourself! Your courage is the light beam that can defeat all monsters in this world.”

Pablo even recounted the superhero moves from the cartoons to comfort Lilly.

“You can say no loudly to those online bullies. You can bravely stand up and defend yourself.”

“There are many things you can do. Even if the storm is heavy, there’s nothing to be afraid of if you have courage.”

Lilly listened to her master’s words, and she felt the fire in her heart rekindle.
