Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily) novel Chapter 141

Priscilla felt more upset than humiliated, because all five men rejected her.

In her mind, five dashing knights fell out with the princess because of a tiny misunderstanding. They all left the castle. As the princess cried and chased after them, she took a tumble and passed away. The five knights returned and regretted their decision for eternity.

This is so sad.

Priscilla cried all the way home. Shawn, who had been waiting for her, pulled her into his embrace.

“Why didn’t you pick up my call?”

Priscilla sobbed even louder. “Shawn, is it really my fault? I didn’t mean it… Why did the principal fire me? And the Crawfords won’t forgive me either.”

“No, it’s not your fault. There, there.”

While Priscilla wept, she caught a glimpse of her vulnerable but attractive face in the mirror. Yet the one hugging her now could not be more ordinary looking. She used to think that Shawn was handsome, but now that she had met Anthony and Blake, Shawn looked… bland. Priscilla thought she could do better than Shawn. A girl like her should be held in the arms of Anthony or Blake. She shoved Shawn away and ran out.

“Peachy!” Shawn gave chase, but he couldn’t find her in the corridor. Frantically, he summoned an elevator and went down. In the dim stairwell, Priscilla came out. She whimpered,

“I’m sorry, Shawn. We are not meant to be together.”

With her broken heart, Priscilla went to Flynn’s place.

“Peachy?” Flynn was surprised to see her.

Priscilla looked at Flynn’s ordinary face. She felt even worse. But either way, it was too late to go anywhere. She would just spend the night crying at Flynn’s place before leaving him tomorrow.

Oh, her miserable life!

…

Inside Lilly’s room, Bettany applied a cold compress on Lilly’s forehead.

“I can do it,” Blake volunteered. He felt bad bothering an elderly woman at night.

Bettany just glared back. “Shut up.”

Lilly lay obediently and allowed Bettany to treat her bruise. “Grandma, I’m okay.”

“You too. Shut up.”

Both the father and the daughter were silenced.
