Chapter 307 Lilly’s Plea

Lilly was eating watermelon when she noticed everyone saying goodbye. She then raised her head, “Huh?”

Why are we going back now?

She did not want to go home…

Lilly missed the opportunity to hir Grace, or rather, she missed the chance to discuss the doll with her.

Jonas. “Alright then, goodbye,”

Sporting a faint smile, he donned a black suit adorned with exquisite, shimmering diamonds, an ensemble that

exuded a subdued yet opulent aura. Despite his courteous appearance, there was still a hint of roguishness about

him.

It did not look like he was afraid of that place and wanted to leave at all…

Lilly thought about it for a moment, “Whatever,”

Jonas was her uncle after all.

If Jonas wanted to go home, Lilly would take him home.

She would talk about the doll with Gracie… No, Grace the next time!

“Goodbye, Mr. and Mrs. Woods!” Lilly waved, “Goodbye, Quinnie!”

At that moment, Grace was staring at Lilly silently by the railing.

Lilly rolled smiled and waved at her, “Goodbye, Gracie!”

Grace was speechless.

I told her my name isn’t Gracie!

Despite her parents and sisters referring to her as Gracie, Lilly’s usage of that name only intensifies her disdain for

it.

Lilly looked for Josh the moment she reached home.

“Spring Friends Community?” Josh was stunned, “What’s wrong with them?”

Lilly whispered in his ear, “They make dolls using human ashes,”

Josh was taken aback.

Instead of leaping to his feet, a shiver ran down his spine, causing goosebumps to cover his body. He could even

sense the hairs on the top of his head bristle with an unsettling sensation.

“Spring… Friends right?”

Josh powered up the computer, mustering the strength to steady his trembling fingers, and proceeded to type the

name into the search box.

On the internet, Josh came across a brief introduction to the doll community. What struck him as odd was that

numerous doll clubs provided detailed self–introductions and showcased a wide array of completed doll images.

Apart from their address, phone number, and a handful of pictures featuring classic dolls, there was nothing else of

substance available.

As Josh revisited the forum, he looked at it carefully and said, “This doll community has chosen a niche path… It’s

pretty popular, and their dolls are highly realistic and they have lots of positive reviews from the customer…

However, each doll comes with a hefty price,”

He pointed to one of the photos, “This doll is very popular on the Internet. It is very famous in the doll lovers‘

community. It’s made by Spring Friends too. The doll’s name is Coco. The price of the doll is one million dollars…not

including costumes and accessories,”

Josh delved deeper into his research on the doll, meticulously factoring in the costs of accessories and other

additional items. To his astonishment, the total price amounted to over five million dollars.

Although the people in the doll lovers‘ community liked dolls very much, there were not that many people who

could spend that much money to make a doll.

Lilly looked at the photo and gasped, “This is Quinnie’s doll!”

Josh reacted, “Uhh…”

The dolls were of good quality. However, the people who made them had bad intentions.

He asked Lilly, “Would you like to visit their store?”

Lilly nodded, “Yes.”

Josh to check the time and route, “It’s in the central office building of Pearl District, we can have a look.

tomorrow,”

Lilly asked, “Can we sneak over the wall?”

Josh’s mouth twitched.

That won’t work…

Although his uncle was awesome and could carry both of them on his shoulders while climbing the wall, he would

be busy during the day, just like the other uncles.

If they asked their Grandma to go with them, she would watch their every move and it would be difficult for them to

act.

“Let’s go find

go find my brother!”

Even though they were both children, their grandma seemed to view his brother differently. In her eyes, his brother

was perhaps perceived more like an adult.

Drake was in the room.

Upon hearing their plans to go shopping at Pearl District the following day, he did not even bother to raise his

eyelids as he curtly replied, “No.”

He did not like shopping and crowded places.

Lilly begged, “Would you please take us there, Drake? I’ll bring you to a less crowded place!”

She also knew that Drake did not like crowded places.

She would take him to a place filled with ghosts and guarantee that there would not be too many people

there.

Josh thought, “How considerate,”

Drake nonchalantly turned a page of the book, he was calm and uttered, “Go ask Grandma,”

He thought that Bettany was so free, she would make Hugh film her dancing every day.

Eventually, she got popular she gained 10000 fans.

They should look for Bettany instead of him. He was busy and found reading more interesting than doing anything

else.

Feeling disappointed, Josh understood his brother well enough to know that if he had already said no, he would not

change his mind and go along with the plan.

Just as he was thinking of another way, he wondered if their father was free.

Lilly rubbed up against Drake and grabbed the corner of his shirt while begging him, “Please, Drake,”

Josh was speechless upon seeing that scene.

He continued reading and ignored them completely.

Eventually, he agreed, “Just this once,”

Drake added, “Don’t bring Hannah,”

Josh and Lilly nodded like chickens pecking at rice, “Okay!”

The two walked out of the room happily and Lilly was so happy, she waved her hands, “Yeah!”

Josh also exclaimed, “Oh yeah!”

Drake was speechless.

Look at how his brother was acting now.

Josh was different from before.

He also had a weak will.

Drake’s eyes briefly flickered with disdain as flipped to another page of the book. He remained steadfastly absorbed

in his reading, showing no signs of wavering.

The next day during breakfast, Josh chose his words carefully and asked, “Grandma! Lilly and I are going shopping

at Pearl District today and Drake will be taking us there!”

Bettany was about to refuse them but when she heard that Drake was coming along, she looked at Drake

suspiciously, “Really?”

Josh nodded coldly, “Yes,”

Bettany nodded.

She thought that everything would be fine as long as Drake was with them.

He was calm, rational, and responsible.

Despite being inclined towards liberal arts, Drake possessed quick reflexes and was capable of fighting

Hannah raised her hand, “I wanna go too!”

Her hair was furry and she looked like a handsome young boy at first glance.

Bettany, Josh. Josh, and Lilly refused at the same time, “No!”

How could Hannah go with them? Her hair looks like an explosion and she was as hard to control as a husky!

Josh and Lilly remembered that Drake said not to bring Hannah along and she looked at Hannah apologetically.

Josh thought the same thing as Bettany as he felt that he could not get Hannah under control.

Hannah was angry, “Why not? Why can Lilly and Josh go while I can’t?”

Bettany interrupted her, “Have you finished your homework?”

Hannah was speechless.

Why?

She was merely a kindergarten child.

Why did she need to do homework?

It’s simply unimaginable and… no, it’s horrifying… No, it’s just indescribable!

Hannah pouted helplessly.

They were about to leave after breakfast when Zachary said leisurely, “I’m going too,”

Everyone was silent.

Hugh did not bother to raise his head. He spoke as he read the newspaper, “You can’t go. Your Grandma wants you

to throw flower petals at the side while she’s filming her dance today,”

Zachary was speechless.

Eventually, Drake brought Josh and Lilly out.

The Crawford family trusted Drake. So, as long as he was with Josh and Lilly, they were relieved to let them outside.

Drake brought Josh and Lilly with him. Initially, he considered taking a taxi, but the thought of potential

traffic congestion near Pearl District made him change his mind. Instead, he opted to take them on the subway.

Lilly experienced her first subway ride, and she was filled with excitement throughout the journey. At one point, she

even ran ahead for a while, exclaiming with a “wow,” before returning to hold the hands of her two brothers.

Drake was silent.

Maybe it isn’t so bad to bring Lilly out after all…
