Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily) novel Chapter 421

Chapter 421 The World of Grown-Ups, Where Everything Comes With a Price Tag

After Lilly finished speaking, she tiptoed and snatched the bill from the doctor’s hand before darting off to make the payment.

Just a couple of steps outside, she suddenly remembered something and turned back to grab Grace.

Blake’s eyes gleamed with amusement. His daughter was truly remarkable, capable of standing up for

herself.

“She’s got some spirit, that girl of mine!” he chuckled to himself.

And off they went, with Blake leading a stray dog on a makeshift leash provided by the hospital.

With the big wolf dog now out of danger, there was less cause for worry. They planned to drop off the stray dog at the nearby grooming center for a bath while getting a full check-up done.

Kelly, on the other hand, was left ignored.

Frozen in place, her face flushed red.

The doctor glanced at her and continued into the emergency room.

People nearby started whispering and gossiping about Kelly:

“That woman is a hypocrite. She cried like she lost her mother… and she wanna do the blood transfusion with her blood?”

“Good Samaritan my foot! The moment it’s time to pay up, her true colors show.”

Someone even snidely remarked, “I thought she could do anything. But she won’t even lend twenty thousand!”

Coincidentally, a commercial began playing on the television mounted on the wall:

A tall and stunning flight attendant followed a short and unattractive old man home. Just before entering the house, she abruptly refused to go inside and demanded the man check his credit limit on a certain credit card.

“What? You don’t even know your limit on xxx? We’re not compatible!”

The man hastily pulled out his phone and checked, revealing a credit limit of $150,000.

With that, the flight attendant’s tears turned into laughter, and she happily entered the house, arm in arm with the man.

Amid this scene, combined with Lilly’s recent words….

The gaze of the onlookers at Kelly resembled the way people looked at that dimwitted flight attendant in the commercial.

Kelly felt a burning sensation on her face, humiliated aid disheartened. She stomped her foot in frustration and dashed away, feeling utterly mortified.

The television on the hospital wall was playing an advertisement video. The screens throughout the entire

1/3

hospital were synchronized, and Lilly, who was in line to make the payment, also caught sight of that commercial.

Curiously, she asked, “Daddy, do people believe these commercials?”

Even she knew they were deceiving.

Her grandmother always said that pic wouldn’t fall from the sky, only traps would. No one would willingly. give away money for nothing.

Blake replied, “Only fools would believe them.”
