Chapter 425 Blake the One-Hit Wonder

Lilly looked at the half eaten piece of candy and felt conflicted.

She loved the sweetness of candy, but she didn’t necessarily enjoy ‘second-hand’ candy.

She thought, Oh but… Hannah already cleaned it. Would she be mad if I don’t take it?

Blake raised an eyebrow as he curiously watched on to see what Lilly would do.

Lilly took the candy….

Then she pondered for a moment, and while Hannah wasn’t paying attention, she stuffed it back into her mouth.

“You should eat it, Hannah!” she said, “I gave it to you. Daddy said that it’s impolite to take that which you have already given away.”

Blake found this amusing.

Every time, he would play the role of a ‘get out of jail free’ card for Lilly…

Did she really think that he was that incredible?

Like the deep starry sky, the infallible God of Battle’s eyes twinkled with little flecks of light.

Hannah seemed to want to give the candy to Lilly still but Blake promptly picked the latter up and walked upstairs.

He said, “I’ve already collected evidence regarding that hypocrite ghost for you.”

Drake happened to come out at that moment and said coldly from upstairs, “Hannah Crawford! Have you finished your homework?”

Hannah made a heavy gulp, then quickly bit the candy into pieces and went upstairs with a mournful expression on her face.

Inside Lilly’s room.

Lilly continued to watch videos on her grandmother’s phone.

In the morning, Bettany had told her that she would take back the phone after a short while. However, half a day had passed just like that, and the phone was stilli Lilly’s hands.

“These are all videos on animal rescue?” Josh, with his keen ears, came upstairs as soon as he heard the mention of a hypocrite ghost and asked, “What does it have to do with ghosts?”

Lilly explained the events of the past two days to him.

As Josh watched these reels again, he couldn’t help but feel that something was off about all of them.

“I don’t think any of these people are nice!” he said.

Blake said, “Although some of them may be bad apples, we can’t use that to form a judgment on everyone.”

As soon as he said that, Lilly came across a new video.

1/4

“Huh? It’s the credit auntie!”

Josh asked, “Credit what..?”

Blake corrected with a smile, “Her name is Kelly Franklin.”

The video happened to be the one where Kelly “rescued the stray dog yesterday.

In the video, she had a worried expression and kept pleading:

“It’s so sad! Can someone please help me… take it to the hospital?”

“Can someone help me please? It’s too heavy, I can’t carry it…”

A young and beautiful girl and a dog covered in dirt while foaming at the mouth..

The contempt of the crowd and the pleas of the beautiful damsel in distress.

The two contrasts made the kindness of the girl stand but even more.

Josh looked at her anxious crying face and would have thought that she was genuinely desperate had he not known her true nature beforehand.

At this moment, a voice sounded: “Be careful…”

The scene flashed by quickly, but Blake appeared in the frame for two seconds.

It was precisely because of this shot that the video went viral, with over a million likes and comments. filled with voices of “Ah, he’s so handsome” and “He’s amazing”.

Lilly exclaimed while pointing at the video, “Daddy, something doesn’t seem right!”

She had been speaking with Gracie first, and only after that did Blake come in. However, both her and Gracie were gone now.

Blake furrowed his brow. “She edited it.”

Indeed, the video had been edited to only show Blake’s concerned” statement, with everything else. omitted.

The following footage was shaky, showing a blurred figure holding a dog and heading to the hospital, where the doctor said it was beyond saving.

After which, Kelly cried all the way as she found a tree and personally dug a hole to bury the lifeless dog.

A person stood behind her the entire time. However, the footage only captured up to their waist.
