Chapter 50 Taking Someone’s Credit
As green sparks flashed in the brazier, Ivan’s shirt suddenly stood up straight, and his sleeves slowly lifted…
Dark clouds already obscured the sky as a gust of cold wind blew, causing Bettany to hug around her arms.
The scene before them was utterly chilling!
Only Lilly had a smile on her face as she waved at the shirt and said sweetly, “Return now!”
The shirt promptly fell back into the brazier and was lit on fire.
Ivan, lying on the ground, started moving his fingers ever so lightly.
Pablo let out a shocked cry and quickly took out his notebook and flipped the pages.
I didn’t mistake it! An incense on the head represents a countdown toward their death. How did he resurrect?
Everyone held their breath and stared at Ivan briefly, but Ivan did not wake up.
Melody slumped onto the ground and cried silently.
Sable sighed and sneered. “See? I’m speechless that you all believed in a child. It’s clearly a waste of time! If you would’ve let my master continue with his spells, he could’ve saved him!”
Master Sullivan scolded with a stern face, “Sable! Stop talking!”
Standing outside the door, Karen overheard Sable and burst into the room, crying, “It’s your fault! This is what happens when you don’t listen to me! You killed my grandson!”
As she screamed, she threw her walking cane at Lilly. “You pay for my grandson’s life! You killed him! If he dies, then so should you!”
Lilly instinctively raised her leg and kicked the walking cane back with a thump. The walking cane immediately knocked Karen’s head… and she cried and yelled louder.
Anthony’s face turned gloomy, and he was about to have the bodyguards cast Karen out of the house!
Then, Colton shouted fiercely, “Shut up!”
Karen startled before crying louder. “You dare to raise your voice toward me! Oh, how terrible my life is! I’ve lost my grandson, and now my son is being disrespectful…”
Master Sullivan stood at the side while listening to the squabble and felt satisfied at heart!
This is what you get for not trusting me!
It’s ridiculous to think that a mere child could save someone that even I can’t save!
If word goes out that Lilly was the one who saved Ivan, it’s going to look terrible for my image!
Suddenly, a weak voice sounded. “Keep it down…”
Master Sullivan’s proud face immediately froze, and he looked to the side…
Ivan weakly propped up his body and sat up!
Lilly happily exclaimed, “You’re alive!”
Wow, I actually saved him!
Lilly suddenly thought of how powerful her master was. Some of his teachings are useful, after all!
Melody was stunned. Her body trembled as she widened her eyes, fearing that it was her imagination…
“Ivan… Ivan!” In a shaky voice, Melody exclaimed and went forward to caress Ivan’s face.
Ivan moved his head to the side. The boy was not fond of physical touch, even if it was from his own mother.
His calm expression gave him a cold yet adorable aura, similar to his father.
Ivan pursed his lips and looked around, finally locking his gaze on Lilly.
“Who are you?” He asked.
Lilly smiled widely. “I’m Lilly.”
Ivan discreetly remembered her name from then on – Lilly.
Melody choked back on her tears as she thanked, “Lilly, thank you so much. Thank you…”
Karen also was brought back to her senses from the shock and crawled toward Ivan, trembling. “Oh, my grandson! Ivan, you’re awake! Oh, it must be because you’re blessed by the heavens…”
Upon hearing that, the Crawford family scoffed.
If her grandson dies, it’s Lilly’s fault; if he lives, it’s because he’s blessed!
Anthony ordered indifferently, “Jack, see them out.”
Colton glanced at Karen before apologizing to Anthony, “My apologies. Once I leave, I shall take care of my family’s business.”
He kept his words short as he knew it would be useless to clarify further.
The Crawford family was already angered by his family’s actions.
Colton was often working at the front line of battlefields and needed help paying attention to what was happening at home.
He was unaware that his mother would be such a troublesome person, and at the same time, he also thought of the times Melody gave him the cold shoulder, making him feel troubled.
“I shall visit your family another time to give my thanks!” Colton simply finished and turned to look at Lilly.
His gaze turned somewhat gentle as he patted her head.
“Lilly, if you need help, you can always find me.” Colton paused before re-emphasizing his words, “Anything at all!”
Melody wiped her tears and added, “Thank you, Lilly…”
However, little did the child know she had accomplished something incredible and even got the favor of the Shaw family.
She was simply happy to help out as she waved her hands. “You don’t have to thank me! Besides, saving one’s life is better than building a seven-story tower!”
The little girl might not even understand the idiom’s meaning, but her serious face was adorable!
Everyone could not help but laugh. Even Anthony, who had a stern face, softened at sight.
Colton then took his family and left.
Master Sullivan felt extremely embarrassed and was silent throughout.
Seeing the Shaw family leaving, they naturally wanted to go as well.
However, Lilly suddenly exclaimed, “I thought I heard someone say he will eat ten pounds of stinky…”
Sable was embarrassed, wishing he could find a hole to crawl into!
Master Sullivan’s face darkened as he glared at Lilly and scolded, “You’re quite unreasonable for someone so young. Do you think you’re the one that saved Young Master Shaw? I advise you to exercise more virtue!”
He huffed and walked away, frustrated.
Lilly had a look of confusion after getting scolded.
But I saved him! Who said it was them?
Lilly finally understood why the police wanted to capture them.
Meanwhile, the sky gradually cleared up, and the cold atmosphere of the living room was already gone.
Anthony stared at Lilly with a worried look…
**
Ivan was still weak, so Colton held him in one arm before putting him into the car.
Karen hurriedly pushed Melody to the side to catch up with them, but Colton unexpectedly slammed his hand against the car door while staring coldly at her.
“You look healthy, mother. Pack your belongings tomorrow and return home at once!”
Karen was taken aback.
Colton put his hand around Melody’s waist and led her into the car before closing the door.
The car quickly drove away, leaving Karen, who was angrily glaring on the spot.
“What did I do wrong…” Karen was enraged, but upon seeing Master Sullivan standing behind her, she quickly said awkwardly, “Uh… I’m sorry that you’ve had to witness such a mess!”
Master Sullivan coldly replied, “It’s nothing.”
“Master Sullivan, please get in…” Karen motioned, but Master Sullivan refused, “No, thank you.”
He then promptly walked out after replying.
Sable looked at Karen and said loudly, “Old Mrs. Shaw, how your family handled this is unforgivable! Do you think a brat from the Crawford family has the ability to save Young Master Shaw?”
Karen paused before asking, “What do you mean?”
