Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily)

Chapter 985 Can't Say Anything Now? Looking at Bettany's expression, Blair inexplicably felt anxious.

Can | have once again done something with good intentions that ended up causing trouble? But how can it be? Winona would not do anything as extreme as murder or arson.

At most, it was just a romantic entanglement. There was no need to make such a big fuss about it.

Compared to Blair, Helen was truly panicked.

When Bettany came out, she wanted to run away immediately.

She knew what Winona had done before and did not dare to continue this entanglement. It would be like exposing herself.

"Let's go, let's go!" Helen pleaded as she pulled Blair's arm. "Today is a happy wedding day for the Crawford family. Let's not talk about it anymore. Let it go, let it go!" Blair looked at her with fear, restraint, and anxiety, feeling even more sorry for her.

The ghost on his head shook its head continuously and said, "No, we can't just leave like this." "It's already difficult enough for the old lady to overcome many difficulties to see his granddaughter. Why does the Crawford family have to bully an old lady like her?" "If we leave here today, she will return and wipe her tears alone." Blair became even more determined and held Helen's hand, insisting, "Don't be afraid, old lady! We just need to discuss it, and I'll help you." Today was a good opportunity.

The way the Crawford family treated Helen was probably not a recent issue.

With many people present today, perhaps they could persuade the Crawford family to help the elderly solve their future difficulties.

Helen was almost at her wits’ end. She was so pleased with Blair's help just now, but now she hated him so much that she wanted to push him into the sewer.

Bettany seemed to see through Blair's intentions and sneered, "Mr. Blair, are you planning to fight for some rights for Helen in front of so many people? You claim to be kind but use moral coercion and public opinion to pressure my family." "You're not that noble either." Bettany was straight. These words initially took Blair aback. He felt the urge to argue back but struggled to find the right words to express himself.

Yes, he was also using moral coercion.

Blair was left speechless as Bettany's words struck him like a crushing blow, hitting him deeply in the heart and making him doubt himself.

Bettany continued, "I know that the outsiders have always been curious about Liam's divorce!" When Winona was arrested, Bettany did not mention that Winona had killed someone to protect Hannah.

Adults are considerate and won't speak recklessly, but what about children? She did not want Hannah to suffer teasing at school because of this. They would say, "Hannah is the child of a murderer.” or "Look! Her mother is a murderer!" This kind of thing happened a lot.

The outsiders only knew that Winona got divorced, and some people even knew that she was sentenced to 25 years, but they did not know the specific reason.

Bettany stared at Blair and said coldly, "Winona, Hannah's mother, she wanted to marry into the Crawford family before, and she bribed a female worker on Liam's construction site for putting drugs in Liam's water." "Liam blamed himself for having an affair with her. He wanted to pay her some money, but she refused until she found out she was pregnant.” The crowd was in an uproar, whispering to each other.

It was unexpected that Winona had married into such a wealthy family with such despicable means. The affairs of the wealthy were explosive.

Blair instinctively said, "The means are unethical, but since the child is born, we should care for her. Moreover, Helen should not take the blame. How can the grandmother bear the responsibility for the mistakes made by her daughter?" Anthony's face was cold, and he said, "It would be best for you to wait until we finish speaking before speaking up." Lilly nodded.

Bettany's face was pale and cold, and she continued, "Afterwards, Winona was worried about her deeds being exposed, so she killed the female worker she had bribed." K-Kill? Blair's eyes widened instantly, and the words he wanted to say were all stuck in his throat.

The surrounding guests were also stunned. This news was too explosive. Not only did Winona use unspeakable means to marry into the Crawford family, but she also killed the person she had bribed! It was like a palace from ancient times, but now society was ruled by law.

Bettany looked at Blair expressionlessly and said, "Can't say anything now? There's more." Blair was greatly shocked and took a step back unconsciously.

Bettany did not stop talking. "When Winona was pregnant with her second child, it was when the Crawford family's eldest daughter, Jean, was seriously ill." "My family has eight sons, but only one daughter and my family is known for showering love on my daughter.” Everyone nodded, well aware of this fact.

How could they not spoil the precious girl among a group of boys? Bettany continued, "Winona also understood that girls are highly valued in our family. In order to ensure that her unborn child becomes our family's sole daughter, she committed another crime.” The Crawford family members experienced excruciating pain due to this statement reopening an old wound.

Bettany's fingertips trembled slightly, and she could not continue speaking for a moment.

Anthony pursed his lips, preparing to say something. But to everyone's surprise, Lilly spoke up with the most crucial information, "Aunt Winona discovered that the baby in her womb was Hannah. To ensure that Hannah would be the only girl in the Crawford family, she took my mom away and abandoned her while unconscious.” "My mom woke up and didn't remember who she was. Later, she was adopted by a man named Stephen, who became my foster daddy. However, my foster dad was not kind to my mother. In the last few days before her death, she suffered greatly. She pleaded with him to buy her some painkillers, but he refused and grew impatient. That's how my mother passed away in South City, suffering from illness and pain."
