Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chatper 1039

Simon looked extremely happy in his suit because he was excited to get married to the Crawford family. He was ecstatic when their children wanted to be his flower boys to pick his wife-to-be up… His wedding was impressive because it’s his family’s honor to be married to the Crawford family even if the children were just fooling around. However, little did Simon and his family know that the only reason why they would even attend the wedding was because of that ghost… Simon went through hell to finally be allowed into Elsa’s room. He was tasked to find her shoes, do pushups and more… He was pretty much exhausted from all of that, but it was fine because it was all in good fun.

Meanwhile, Lilly and Josh were finally able to spot the malignant ghost on Keira’s head. This startled Josh as he asked, “Hey, what is that?”

Zachary scoffed and said, “Gosh, you’re useless. I can’t believe that you weren’t even able to tell what kind of a ghost that is.”

Josh rolled his eyes and said, “Well then, do enlighten me.”

Zachary replied, “I don’t know what that is.” However, he would not bother Lilly if he did not have to. This showed just how confident he was.

Josh was speechless when he heard his reply. However, Lilly signaled him to stay quiet.

“I’m here for Elsa, Madam Keira.” Simon smiled at Keira.

Keira smiled and said, “Not bad kid, go on ahead. Hurry now.”

Simon was beaming because his mother told him that he might not be able to marry his wife- to-be that day because Elsa’s mother might make things difficult for him. He thought to himself, Wow, I guess mom was worried for nothing!

“Sure thing. Thanks mom!” Simon thanked Elsa’s mother.

“We’ll be a family soon, so there’s no need to thank me,” Keira smiled before turning her attention to Lilly, “Oh my, aren’t you adorable! Gosh, you are a really pretty girl, Lilly!” Apparently, Keira was biased to Lilly and was just saying that out of respect. Her clothes were mediocre at best to Keira.

Lilly nodded and said, “Hello, Miss Keira.”

Hannah looked bored as she glanced at Keira before yawning at Lilly. Apparently, she disliked that family and she only tagged along because of Lilly. She would much rather be sleeping at home.

Soon, Keira gave the children some snacks before telling people to take care of them. Outsiders might even think that the whole party was for the children if they did not know any better. This stirred up quite the gossip amongst Keira’s relatives and friends. So, Lilly awkwardly said, “Miss Keira, we tagged along with Simon and he should be the main focus of today, not us.” She would never take credit from others.

Keira immediately understood what Lilly was implying, so she said, “Oh my, I just adore children!”

Soon, the wedding began as Josh reminded everyone about not ruining other people’s weddings even if they wanted to subdue the ghosts. Apparently, Lilly had told them that before they arrived. They were even told to observe as well. So, Josh stared at the malignant spirit that was attached to Keira’s head as he wondered, Hmmm… What exactly is that?

The wedding was going on smoothly as Elsa’s parents gave Simon their blessings. Simon was touched by their blessings as he led Elsa out the front door. This showed that Elsa must have loved him as well even though she was usually a troublemaker, she was really well behaved on her wedding day. However, Elsa paused just as Simon was about to open the car door.

“We’ll be a family soon, so there’s no need to thank me,” Keira smiled before turning her attention to Lilly, “Oh my, aren’t you adorable! Gosh, you are a really pretty girl, Lilly!” Apparently, Keira was biased to Lilly and was just saying that out of respect. Her clothes were mediocre at best to Keira.

“Wait, how could you just leave when my parents have just given you their blessings earlier. Look, my parents would be left alone after I’m married to you…” Elsa said while staring at Simon with misty eyes. This ached Simon’s heart as he could not believe how rude he was earlier.

“I nearly forgot. Sorry, I was just too excited. I’ll promise them that I’ll treat you well right now.” Simon did not feel like anything was amiss when Elsa stopped him. He only thought of her as a really nice daughter to her parents. However, Elsa stunned him by telling him to give her parents two-hundred million dollars as her dowry. He had spent his entire life’s savings just to marry Elsa and he was pretty much broke then.

Elsa exclaimed, “What are you doing, Simon? Are you really going to make me mad on our wedding day?”

Everyone was speechless when Elsa said that as they wondered who exactly was being unreasonable then. Even Lilly was stunned because she would be furious if anyone asked her to pay two-hundred million dollars on her wedding day. This felt more like a robbery than a wedding. However, something far outrageous would soon happen.

Simon lowered his head and said, “I’m really sorry, honey. I didn’t mean to make you mad. I… I just didn’t bring enough money, so…”

Elsa replied, “That’s fine, just transfer the money to my parent’s account.”

Simon finally relented as he said, “Fine, I’ll do it right now…”

This shocked Lilly as she thought to herself, Mom, I finally understand what a simp is now!
