Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily)

Chapter 961 Drake's Brain Almost Overheated Bettany's face twisted in disbelief. "If you don't know, don't make wild guesses! It's Anthony's first marriage, not a second one." Hannah, with only a partial understanding of what a second marriage meant, replied, "Oh... then what was that marriage certificate they had before?" They even celebrated with a big family dinner when they received the marriage certificate. It was a special occasion they had deliberately marked.

Bettany patiently explained from the sidelines...

Meanwhile, Gilbert had finished eating but remained seated at the dining table, typing on his phone: Gilbert: [Guys, there's something | need to tell you about Anthony... So this morning...] Anthony glanced at the phone, his gaze immediately warning Gilbert.

Gilbert held the phone and raised an eyebrow, his intentions of blackmail evident.

Suddenly, Anthony lowered his head, and his phone vibrated, indicating a bank notification: [Dear esteemed user, your account ending in 8888 has received a deposit of 10,000,000 dollars, new balance...] Gilbert burst into laughter, his eyes squinting.

In the group chat, messages started pouring in: Edward: [What happened to Anthony this morning? You left us hanging. Watch your back!] Jonas: [What's up? Did Anthony disturb someone's grave? He seems hesitant to spill the beans.] Max: [What's wrong with Anthony? Just spill it out!] Gilbert continued messaging the group: [This morning, Mom mentioned to Anthony about arranging a wedding ceremony for him and Lisa.] The brothers fell silent immediately.

Edward: [You know how to build suspense. | thought it was something major.] Max: [Wasn't this already decided? We were waiting for Lilly to come back and choose an auspicious date.] Jonas: [Where's Lilly? Did she have breakfast?] Anthony secretly breathed a sigh of relief and calmly continued eating his meal.

After finishing breakfast, they were about to set off. Bettany said she needed to tidy up upstairs, and Lilly checked her children's watch.

Josh said, "Granny takes at least half an hour for this." Josh and Drake, the two brothers, were waiting for the chauffeur to arrive and take them to their extracurricular activities.

Lilly said, "Josh, you can't be so impatient. Grandpa said girls should groom themselves, and boys should be patient!" "Okay, | was wrong," Josh admitted, suppressing his laughter.

Lilly suddenly approached, cupping her hands together. "Josh, what's the deal with Uncle Anthony and Aunt Lisa?" She couldn't let go of her curiosity. Children have a great sense of curiosity, especially when it comes to things that seem peculiar and everyone avoids discussing.

Josh rested his chin on his hand, wearing a thoughtful expression. "Hmm... well, | don't know either. Why don't you ask Drake?" Lilly looked at Drake and called out, "Drake?" Drake remained silent.

He was something, that brother of his.

"It's nothing," Drake averted his gaze. "It's an adult matter, and we shouldn't ask about it as kids." Little did he know that Lilly wouldn't give up. "No, it's not okay. Every time it's the same answer. Now that the adults aren't here, and even Master isn't here, tell me!" She was genuinely curious. Why did Uncle Anthony and Aunt Lisa just close the door, and why was everyone's expression so subtle about it? Lilly was observant, and Drake couldn't fool her.

Drake couldn't resist Lilly's adorable persistence, and in three seconds, he surrendered.

He mumbled, "Well... they're just discussing... from the perspective of Darwin's theory of evolution, the profound questions about human reproduction and the origin of life..." Drake couldn't come up with anything more. These sentences were already frying his brain, even as a top student.

Lilly tilted her head, confusion in her eyes. "Discussing?" Drake cleared his throat. "They're discussing the history of human reproduction and the origin of life from the standpoint of biology. It's beyond your understanding. Just focus on your studies.” "Oh... okay!" Lilly accepted.

Josh suppressed his laughter, impressed by his brother's ability to fool Lilly. He had learned! Unexpectedly, Lilly's brain quickly caught up. "Then why can't they discuss it in front of everyone?" Josh remained silent.

Stop asking, stop asking! Drake was about to explode! After struggling for a while, Drake finally said, "Well... they want to discuss it among themselves..." Lilly nodded. "I understand, but | have another question..." Drake hurriedly interrupted, "The car is here. Let's go." Josh rubbed Lilly's face and said, "Goodbye, Lilly! Remember to think of me!" Lilly waved at her two brothers, saying, "Goodbye, Josh. Goodbye, Drake!" Drake and Josh finally felt liberated once they got into the car.

But it wasn't their chauffeur driving; it was their dad.

Their mom sat in the passenger seat...

Josh exclaimed with joy, "Huh, Dad and Mom, why are you guys taking us today?" Anthony replied calmly, "Isn't it normal for parents to accompany their children to class?" Drake muttered to himself. That was true, but they rarely had their parents accompany them. It was usually Grandpa, Granny, or Mr. Jack.

Suddenly, Anthony asked, "By the way, Drake, isn't your birthday coming up soon? What do you want?" Drake looked puzzled.

Why was his dad suddenly being so nice to him today? Did he take the wrong medication? Drake couldn't figure it out.

Josh raised his hand. "Me, me, me! My birthday is one month after Drake's. | want..." Anthony's voice turned flat. "We'll talk about it on your birthday." Josh was perplexed.

Why didn't he ask him what he wanted when he asked Drake? Wasn't he his biological son? Josh was also puzzled...
