Chapter 1265 A Feast
Edward and the others put away the work on their hands when they heard that Lilly was home.
“Lilly! I bought some new clothes for you! Come upstairs and try!” Edward said.
“Lilly! I saw a very fun toy on the way home. Do you wanna see…” Gilbert said.
“Lilly! I bought you a new phone, a new tablet, and a new computer! I’ve also installed my latest Al assistant in it. It’ll be fun!” Max said.
“I don’t know what to buy for you, but if you need it, I can buy you a private jet, Bryson said.
“I built a new house for you,” Liam said.
Anthony didn’t know what to give Lilly. Eventually, he decided that he would transfer a company to her name and give her all the profits.
Lisa handed Lilly a beautiful purple gem. “This is for you! I found it in the mountains.”
Jonas grinned mischievously, “It’s too easy to give you money or presents. I’m not like them. I’m giving you an aunt!”
Everyone was speechless when they heard that.
Lilly clapped her hands in delight. “Wow, an aunt? Where?”
“We’ve registered our marriage, but I was waiting for you to come home before deciding on a date for our wedding reception. She’s still in her family home now.”
Now that Quinnie had achieved what she wanted in her career, it was time for her to focus on other personal achievements.
Lilly suddenly remembered about Grace and wondered how she was currently.
Madame Maya had been waiting for her for a long time.
Everyone
crowded around Lilly and fawned over her. They totally forgot about dinner.
Bettany smiled and said, “That’s enough. Why are you all surrounding Lilly? It’s time to eat!”
She went into the kitchen to make preparations.
Zachary finally found the opportunity to talk to Lilly. He pulled her aside and reported on
his ‘work.”
“Ms. Berrycloth has already been discharged from the hospital, and she’s doing fine now. The narrow- minded ghost is still stuck in the Taylor family residence. When I went to visit him yesterday, his deathly energy was growing.” NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
He was growing mad with jealousy when he saw the Taylor family reunite over Christmas.
“He can stay there,” Lilly said.
Josh said, “Joe has been sentenced to 12 years in prison. He doesn’t seem to mind it though. He was still smiling on the day of the trial.”
Lilly frowned.
They knew that Joe was another narrow-minded ghost. She wasn’t expecting him to repent in 12 years. In fact, he might commit crimes as soon as he was released.
“We’ll visit him after Christmas,” Lilly said.
There was no reason for it. She just wanted to see him.
Josh nodded and agreed to it.
Meanwhile, the King of Styx helped Margaret and Bettany bring the dishes from the kitchen to the dining hall. “Dinner is ready!”
Lilly was very surprised. What the? Why is he here?
The King of Styx couldn’t wait to eat. He sat down in front of the enormous spread and drooled.
Hugh patted Lilly’s shoulder. “Let’s eat.”
Lilly hugged his arm and greeted him warmly. “Grandpa!”
On the other hand, no one entertained Blake and Jean. Jean smiled at Blake and said, “What can we do if our daughter is too popular?”
Blake smiled gently. This mortal life would last only several decades, a mere blink of an eye compared to his millennia of existence.
The King of Styx patted the chair next to him. At the same time, he and Lilly said, “Sit together with me, Grandpa!”
Lilly grimaced. “Hey, Uncle Styx! No fair!”
“Your grandpa is my grandpa. Same with your granny!” the King of Styx said triumphantly.

Edward was surprised. “Who’s this guy?”
The King of Styx had been holed up in the kitchen with Margaret. Edward, on the other. hand, had been busy with work and searching for Lilly. The two had never met before.
“He’s
my
friend,” Lilly said.
Bettany, Anthony, and the other brothers made sure that Lilly and Jean’s plates were always full.
“That’s enough! I can’t finish it all!” Lilly said.
Bettany wanted to put some food on Lilly’s plate too, but seeing that her plate was already full, she placed the food on the King of Styx’s plate instead.
“You should eat some more, Tyx!”
The King of Styx was drowning in pure bliss. He had not enjoyed the warmth and hospitality of the Human Realm for a long time.
While the King of Styx devoured the food, Bettany made sure that his plate was never
empty.
The King of Styx’s stomach was bloated. As tears of joy flowed down his cheeks, he said, “Ah… that’s the life!”
The Crawfords are so nice to me. I wish I could live here forever!
