Master Sullivan replied, “These are some incense candles and paper money.”
Cheryl batted her eyelashes and continued to ask, “Wow! What are they used for?”
It was easy to get close to someone as a child.
No adult would treat a child with disdain, so Cheryl desperately used her advantage to get close to Master Sullivan.
Master Sullivan pointed at the stage outside and said, “They’re for the opening ceremony…”
He then noticed that the ceremonial ball had been moved back to its original place.
He couldn’t help but frown.
Sable immediately asked, “What’s going on?
Didn’t he ask you to move it to the east?”
The staff member in charge of the decoration walked over and smiled apologetically, “Oh, it’s because the higher-ups said to move it back…”
Sable interrupted unhappily, “I don’t care about your higher-ups! You invited my master, so you should respect his arrangements! It’s for your own good! Does the person who asked you to move the ceremonial ball even know how this will affect the energy of the venue?”
Suddenly, Anthony’s cold voice sounded, “I was the one who gave them the order. Do you have a problem with it?”
Sable’s words got stuck in his throat when he saw Anthony!
Lilly froze when she looked around backstage.
She saw a pale-faced female ghost jumping back and forth between Master Sullivan and Cheryl’s heads!
It looked like a dog trying to find a place to relieve itself…
Thinking of that, Lilly suddenly remembered Sable’s promise to eat ten pounds of poop.
She immediately asked, “Hey, you promised to eat ten pounds of stinky poop while standing upside down yesterday. Did you eat it?”
“…”
Lilly grew curious and asked, “Will the poop stick to your face when you eat it upside down? Can you swallow it? Is it too much for your stomach?”
Sable remained silent.
“I asked Josh yesterday, and he told me that ten pounds of poop is equal to a big bucket of poop!”
Uh… It’s like 1.2 times 10 metal buckets… Lilly couldn’t remember exactly what Josh had said to her.
She then gestured with her hands, “About this big of a bucket!”
If this man ate it all, he’s really incredible!
Lilly looked at Sable with admiration.
Sable was about to curse at her when Master Sullivan’s face showed annoyance after seeing Lilly.
Master Sullivan sternly said, “Saying such crude words at a young age. Where are your manners?”
Lilly nodded in agreement. “Yes, it really is a large bucket of manure! Did you eat it too, Master Sullivan?”
Master Sullivan was taken aback by her response.
Pablo couldn’t help but chuckle.
How could his disciple be so adorable?
Sometimes he even wondered if she did it intentionally.
Pablo then gazed at the malicious spirit leaping between Master Sullivan and Cheryl’s heads.
Ah… so it’s a deceitful ghost! We shouldn’t capture it now since there are many people here.
“For now, let’s ignore her,” Pablo whispered to Lilly, “I’ll take you out tonight.”
Lilly nodded in agreement. “Okay!”
Meanwhile, Master Sullivan’s face turned red as the child had the audacity to call him a liar!
He coldly stated, “It seems like you have a tendency to be disrespectful and fearless! I can tell from your appearance that you bring bad luck!”
Everyone’s expressions changed slightly.
What he said was true, as the story of the Crawford family’s granddaughter was known by many.
The child lost her mother when she turned two and caused a miscarriage for her stepmother when she turned three. Then her father went bankrupt and went to prison…
After returning to the Crawford family, rumors spread that she even caused her uncle Liam and his wife to divorce.
If they ignored the truth and looked at the bigger picture, Lilly was cursed by her parents…
The smile on Lilly’s face gradually faded.
“I’m not a jinx, I’m blessed!” Lilly exclaimed, biting her lip.
Anthony patted Lilly and reassured her, “Yes, Lilly is a fortunate child.”
With a cold expression, he demanded, “Who was responsible for the venue’s layout? Get these scammers out of here!”
The staff was so frightened by Anthony’s coldness that they did not dare to utter a word…
Charlie Brown, Anthony’s assistant, immediately stepped forward and gestured for them to leave. “Please.”
Master Sullivan put on a brave front as he said indifferently, “Sable, let’s pack up. It doesn’t matter even if we don’t save this victim.” He was furious and thought that the Crawford family was insensitive.
Sable retorted, “We came here to help you regardless of your past, but you’re
disrespecting my Master! If anything happens to you in the future, don’t come asking for help from my Master anymore!”
Sable, being young and bold, dared to challenge Anthony.
Anthony sneered as he ordered Charlie, “Call the police. Didn’t you think you’re amazing? Then don’t leave.”
Master Sullivan was instantly dumbfounded.
Everyone softly persuaded, “Come on, Mr. Anthony, don’t be angry… Master Sullivan’s disciple is indeed a little straightforward, but he doesn’t have any malicious intentions…”
“Yes, yes. Master Sullivan is a great person. Although he doesn’t like to talk, he’ll answer all our questions.”
“Mr. Anthony, you shouldn’t call the police! You really shouldn’t! We must consider the bigger picture…”
However, Anthony remained unmoved.
How dare they say that Lilly was a jinx?
He couldn’t care less about the “bigger picture”. If he couldn’t even protect his niece, what good was he?
As Master Sullivan observed the situation, he accidentally made eye contact with Anthony. He couldn’t help but be startled.
He grabbed the fly-whisk and forced a calm expression as he said, “I don’t want to argue with others. Sable, let’s go.”
At that very moment, Cheryl grabbed his sleeve!
Cheryl sincerely said, “Master Sullivan, don’t be angry. Lilly is still young, so she’s unaware… She didn’t mean to upset you!”
She then looked at Lilly and anxiously said, “Lilly, Master Sullivan is an amazing person! What you did was wrong, so you should apologize!”
