Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles!

Lilly looked around, yet she still saw only an empty room. "Who are you?" she asked in a shaking voice.

"I'm your master," the voice answered calmly.

The little girl scowled at the absurd response. "I don't have a master," she said firmly.

Suddenly, a shadowy figure sat in the chair next to the bed. The young man, dressed in a white robe, was not visible to the rest. He had blood-red lips, piercing grey eyes, and a high nose. He exuded a cold, sinister aura.

The man glared at the little girl before him and thought, I thought she was going to be an ignorant dumb child. It seems like it isn't that easy to fool her…

"Tulip." Before he could continue, Lilly hissed, "My name is not Tulip. I'm Lilly."

The man rubbed his chin and said, "I'm really your master. Your mum asked me to be your master when she was still around."

"No, she won't," Lilly protested. She did not believe her mother would give her up to a stranger.

The man was speechless at her denial. When Jean was about to die, she saw him and begged him to protect Lilly and the Crawfords. The little girl was only two years old then and could not see his spiritual body. However, the fact remains that he was her master! When Lilly was on the verge of death two days ago, she could finally hear his voice. Nonetheless, she refused to believe his words.

The man rubbed his nose and stated, "Jean Crawford is your mother, and you are Lilly Hatcher. I know who you are."

Lilly pursed her lips and retorted, "Everyone knows that."

What a clever young lady. The Hatchers would never be able to bully her if it weren't for her petite stature and desire to be loved.
