Chapter 323 Shifting the Blame Bettany tore Blake apart with her bare hands.
Fortunately, Blake took advantage of his long legs and said. “I'll go check on Lilly” as he walked away calmly.
His pace was unhurried as each of his steps covered a significant distance.
Bettany could not catch up with him and laughed instead.
Anthony spoke, “That's enough, Mom. Hurry up and rest. I'll take care of Lilly,” Bettany vented her frustration and cursed, “You should be more concerned! Blake is so unreliable as a father...” Anthony reassured her, saying, “Don’t worry.” Muttering to herself, Bettany returned to her room.
She hesitated about visiting Lilly, thinking that children may want to maintain their pride, so she decided to let it go.
Whatever... I'll make her one less chicken nugget tomorrow! Lilly hurriedly returned to her room, tossing aside the small backpack and kicking off her shoes. She jumped onto the bed and rolled around, wrapping herself up in a thin blanket.
She pretended to sleep soundly.
Sure enough, when she heard the door click open and someone walked in, Lilly became extremely nervous Grandma knows how to lecture people! Oh no... It's over! At that moment, as Lilly thought she was going to get her grandmother’s scolding, she had already prepared herself for the punishment.

“Where's grandma?” she asked, her voice filled with concern.
Blake glanced at the small backpack on the ground before answering. “She’s gone to sleep,” Lilly heaved a sigh of relief.
Blake asked, “Where are you going?” Lilly spoke straightforwardly to her father, “Daddy, do you still remember the lady who bumped into us carlier today?” 13 Blake nodded in acknowledgment, asking. “Yes, what about her?” Lilly explained, “There’s a ghost next to her that will possess her. That's why | need to catch it as soon as possible,” That was why she climbed up the wall However, the wall was so high she could not climb over it at all...
Blake stood up and said, “Wait for me a while,” Anthony came in just in time, and asked with a straight face, “Where are you going?” Blake's eyes flickered and said, “Lilly, Daddy has to change his clothes, wait for me with your rich and handsome uncle.” Lilly nodded immediately, “Okay!” Anthony was speechless.
How dare you shift the blame on me? With Anthony’s help, Blake managed to escort Lilly out of Crawford Mansion.
While there were numerous ways to sneak Lilly out of the Crawford Mansion unnoticed, having a team. member to cover them was the best option.
In the dead of night, father and daughter strolled along the river bank. Lilly wistfully remarked, “Oh, how | wish | could fly like Polly!” They did not know how long it would take for them to walk to the lady’s house.
Suddenly, Blake walked towards a shop by the side of the road as if he had chosen the road at random.
He opened the door with a bang and got in.
Lilly nervously asked, “Daddy?” To her surprise, the sound of a revving motorcycle greeted her in response.
Within moments, a sleek and stylish bike was before Lilly's eyes.
With its sleek black exterior and imposing stature, the motorcycle exuded a sense of coolness. The engine. roared to life with a twist of the accelerator.
“Get on!” Blake exclaimed.
Blake picked up Lilly and put a pink helmet on her.
The helmet fit Lilly perfectly as if it had been tailored specifically for her. She settled herself in the front seat, and Blake carefully fastened her seatbelt, securing the little girl to himself with a special safety buckle.
Filled with a mix of nervousness and excitement, Lilly could not help but ask, “Daddy, whose motorcycle is this?” 7 2/3 A mischievous smile played on Blake's lips as he replied in a lazy tone, “Hmm... Daddy borrowed it while the owner was away.
So let's hurry up, or the owner might get upset when they find out later.” With a twist of the accelerator, Blake accelerated and zoomed away on the motorcycle. Lilly's eyes. widened as she noticed someone chasing after them, causing her to become anxious.
“It's wrong to steal, Daddy!” she exclaimed, her voice filled with concern. “Let's go back and return it...” Blake could not help but smirk under his helmet. Thanks to the intercom headsets built into their helmets, he could hear Lilly's words crystal clear.
“Don't be so loud, Lilly. Daddy can hear you,” Blake responded with a tone of indulgence. “Don’t worry, | was just teasing you.
This motorcycle belongs to me,” Lilly was momentarily stunned, her face filled with doubt. “But that shop isn’t ours,” she pointed out.
Blake shrugged nonchalantly. “That's Dad's subordinate he replied casually.

Daddy's a liar and a bad guy.
Lilly was filled with anger, thinking that her father had stolen the motorcycle, and she was on the verge of tears.
The motorcycle roared, and Lilly, who had never ridden one before, quickly became cheerful again, forgetting about what happened earlier) It was late at night, so the roads were empty.
Blake, being considerate of not disturbing the city’s residents, chose to take the outer lane instead.
“Lilly, where is the lady’s house?” Blake suddenly remembered this crucial question.
The father and daughter continued driving for several miles, realizing that they had completely forgotten. about where they were going.
Lilly held the accelerator and stretched her hands, “Eeny... Meeny... Miney...” She suddenly pointed in a direction, “It's over here!” She pointed at it casually, as if she just guessed it.
However, Blake did not doubt her and steered the motorcycle in that direction.
They drove for 10 miles in the direction Lilly pointed and reached a residential area in Shimmer District.
At that moment, the girl was still lying on her bed, engrossed in swiping through her phone, occasionally giggling at something she saw.
She had completely forgotten about her morning vow to go to bed early and avoid using her phone.
Before she knew it, it was already 3 a.m.
