Spoiled by Eight Uncles

After impulsively throwing the glass ball away, Yena immediately regretted her decision. Her ghost mother instructed her to bury
the glass ball in a hidden location, where no one else could find it. The malignant spirit trapped within the ball would help
Anthony in regaining his lost spiritual wisdom.
Everyone in the Crawford family showered Lilly with affection, as she had successfully captivated Anthony’s heart and gained his
favor. However, now Yena had carelessly thrown away the glass ball, casting a sense of unease upon her. She desperately
wanted to retrieve it and rushed towards the crowd.
Yet, the black glass ball continued to roll and evade her grasp. People were bustling around, and a person accidentally stepped
on the glass ball.
Crack...
The glass ball shattered instantly, unleashing an unseen surge of dark energy.
Unaware of what had occurred, the man looked down at his feet in surprise. “Huh, what...?”
He thought it was some candy dropped by a child. Oblivious to the situation, he simply wiped the soles of his shoes.
Yena’s heart turned cold.
Nevermind...
After all, the ball was intended to be placed on the island, so the timing should not make a difference...
Little did she know, the reason why the ghostly figure wearing a red veil did not follow her this time was that she was afraid of
being caught by Lilly!
Yena was following a cunning and deceitful plan.
The female ghost did not expect Yena to be this foolish—throwing the glass ball right in front of Lilly, only for it to be crushed by
someone...
On the stage, Lilly and Blake exchanged glances.
Blake sensed a strong presence of a bad aura.

Meanwhile, Lilly watched in astonishment as ghosts strolled through the night, seamlessly passing through the crowd. Their
expressions varied, ranging from sinister smirks to bitter faces, and some even appeared childlike, laughing with sharp voices
while playing tricks on the attendees.
The once cheerful and lively atmosphere inexplicably turned gloomy.
“There’s a lot of ghosts here, Daddy!” Lilly eagerly exclaimed, ready for action. “Shall we fight them?”
“Not yet,” Blake replied. “There are too many people around. We can’t act recklessly.”
Lilly asked curiously, “Then what should we do?”
Blake glanced at Anthony and said, “It depends on your handsome and wealthy uncle!”
Anthony, who was known for his good looks and wealth, responded with a hesitant expression.
Yena felt deeply disturbed after the black glass ball was crushed. However, upon observing for a while, she realized that Lilly
remained oblivious. Lilly continued to enjoy the cake, engage in cheerful conversations, and laugh with Josh and the others.
Yena felt an immediate sense of relief.
Ha... So this is what Lilly is capable of?
An indescribable feeling washed over her, as if she were superior to Lilly, and that Lilly was no match for her at all! It felt
exhilarating, filling Yena with confidence that she had accomplished the task assigned by her ghost mother.
Next, she only needed to wait for Anthony to wake up. She would then appear at the right moment and tell him that he had been
manipulated by Lilly!
The Crawford family would be grateful to her, and she would finally be accepted and appreciated by the family. And then, it would
be Anthony’s turn...
Yena thought about this happily, realizing that children were indeed naive.
At that moment, Mabel approached with an expressionless face, her movements rigid. She wore a peculiar smile as she
addressed Yena, “Yena... where have you been?”
Yena was taken aback by her mother’s appearance, and then noticed the female ghost lurking behind her mother.

Reluctantly, Yena cast a final glance at the opulent birthday banquet, imagining how wonderful it would be if it were hers. She
reluctantly pulled her mother away from the scene.
As they stepped out of the restaurant’s doors, the female ghost behind Mabel suddenly collapsed, casting a resentful gaze
toward Mabel being dragged away.
Unaware of any wrongdoing, Yena believed that these malevolent spirits were afraid of her, hence why they refrained from
causing harm to her mother. She remained oblivious to the fact that there was a golden light on the ground, allowing people to
pass through while restricting the movement of ghosts.
Meanwhile, Anthony stood on the stage and tapped the microphone, addressing the crowd. “Everyone, there’s a swimming pool
reception on the garden terrace of the first floor and an indoor ocean park for children on the other side. There are various
facilities for children. Feel free to explore and enjoy. The banquet will carry on.”
Since everyone had already eaten, they had to entertain themselves with the facilities offered.
Who would not be delighted by such news?
With haste, those with children, partners, or companions made their way to the first floor.
It turned out that there were no events happening on the first floor.
However, Anthony possessed the ability to make things happen. Within fifteen minutes, he organized a swimming pool reception
and an indoor children’s playground.
The lights flickered, creating a vibrant and colorful atmosphere that surpassed the restaurant in terms of excitement. When the
guests were tired from playing, they could also relax and dine on the garden terrace.
The tourists who had come to Saffron Island that weekend felt like they had struck gold!
The crowd dispersed, and the banquet hall on the fifth floor became empty, except for one table that remained occupied—the
table where Blake, Lilly, Josh, and Zachary sat as they enjoyed their meal.
Zachary and Josh were busy writing something in their notebooks.
Lilly savored a mouthful of cake, relishing the sweet sensation as it melted in her mouth. Today truly felt like a perfect day!
“What a great person! He even sent me a gift full of ghosts!” Lilly exclaimed joyfully.

Josh asked, “How many ghosts did he bring?”
Lilly playfully raised her finger and replied, “123456789... I can’t count, there are too many!”
Josh exclaimed to Zachary, “We’ve hit the jackpot!”
Zachary diligently noted in his notebook,
“Cooling time for Purple Sledgehammer... None?”
“Cooling time for the golden steamed bun... Appears to be none?”
“The Palace of the Ruler of Hell... Seems to have no cooling time.”
“It’s not entirely certain, we need to double-check it.”
He was determined to discover his sister’s weaknesses and provide her with the best combat strategy.
“It’s a shame I can’t see it...” Zachary frowned.
Lilly chimed in, “Isn’t it simple?”
Suddenly, a series of swift movements sounded.
“Swish... Swish... Swish...” Zachary and Josh’s vision blurred, only to find a pale-faced child pressed against them.
The two brothers were taken aback.
They were unprepared for such an encounter!
Josh, clutching his notebook tightly, jumped in surprise and promptly hung it on Blake.
Zachary, reacting a bit slower, took a few seconds to quickly grab his notebook and hug Blake’s thigh.
Why didn’t they cling to Lilly?
It was because Lilly was crouched in front of a child, innocently tugging at their face and asking, “Why are you peeling off your
skin? Did you get burned to death?”

The little ghost was quiet.
Josh turned to Zachary and both of them were bewildered.
Blake, being unable to see the ghosts but now his body was clung onto by Josh and Zachary, frowned and exclaimed, “Get off
me!”
...
On the first floor, Yena found herself at ease and observed her surroundings. Blake and Lilly were nowhere to be seen, but the
remaining members of the Crawford family seemed preoccupied and lost in thought.
Yena’s face lit up with delight as she grabbed a small cake and eagerly approached Bettany.
The ghostly mother’s words echoed in her mind, she should rise where she fell!
She was determined to win Bettany’s affection today!
