The Crawford Mansion was large and quiet on weekdays. But it was very lively today, and it was already late at night. People passing by outside the mansion could vaguely hear the laughter of many people inside.

An old man said with emotion, "The Crawford family has a lot of people. That's good. It's lively. My house has nobody..."

Another old man nodded. "Yes, they aren't separated, but they can still be so harmonious..."

People living here were rich. Generally, they would separate their families and leave only the first house in power to live in the old house.

Most of the time, only the elderly lived in the house. The son in charge of the company had a few real estate properties and seldom returned when he was busy.

The Crawford family was different. They never fought or quarreled over family property.

Children and grandchildren would increase and become lively when there were more people.

"The Crawford family had a new baby last month," The old man said with envy, "I heard that the fourth son of the Crawford family is getting married soon. They've already discussed the wedding with the Woods family."

After marriage, there would be more grandchildren.

Then, the Crawford family would become more lively. Even if the adults were busy and went to work, it would be different if there were a dozen children in the family.

Another old man sighed. "Yes! I'm so envious!"

When people were old, their biggest fear was loneliness.

After dinner, Josh and the others stayed in Lilly's room.

"Lilly, tell me about Uncle Blake's other daughter!" Josh said impatiently.

Blake raised his eyebrows. "Be careful what you say! When did I have another daughter?"

Josh covered his mouth. "Sorry, Uncle Blake! Just pretend I didn't say anything!"

Lilly said, "That's fake! We came back today to do a paternity test..."

She went through the story, including what Serene had said after the paternity test.

Josh sneered. "It's as if we owe her!"

To be clear, when they first met, Lilly was also kind to Serene.

Lilly felt that she helped Blake guard the gate of the three thousand years, so she explained that she was the daughter of Emperor Prosper. Unexpectedly, that sentence annoyed Serene and aroused her murderous intent.

"Now she's complaining instead." Josh was indignant. "If someone said Lilly's father was also her father, Lilly would investigate the truth before making the next step."

What about Serene? Lilly explained it to Serene, but Serene felt offended. She chased Lilly, attacked Lilly, refused to believe it, and refused to figure out what was going on.

So Josh felt that Serene deserved it. Blake only slapped her. That lesson was small.

"Lilly, you must not be burdened!" Josh said.

Lilly shook her head. "I won't." I'm a sensible kid!

Hannah asked curiously, "But I still want to know why she's so convinced. What did her mother tell her before?"

Facts proved a distorting mother would affect her children.

Hannah knew more things now and naturally had more experience in this aspect.

Lilly shook her head. "I don't know either, but World Mirror does."

World Mirror was speechless.

Lilly smiled and said, "World Mirror, what happened to Serene's mother and my daddy three thousand years ago?"

Jean suddenly became interested and called all the ghosts out. "Come out to watch the show!"

The harem spirit was also in high spirits. "Yes, we need to know about this! Although Emperor Blake is faithful, I still want to know why women were in his palace!"

Jean nodded. "That's right! In the mansions of the male protagonists in the novels, let alone the female ones, the author writes that there isn't even a single female mosquito!" Blake's mouth twitched. Her description is too exaggerated.

The World Mirror lit up, and a scene from three thousand years ago appeared.

World Mirror could observe the situation of the world. Although it was not omnipotent or could know everything, it could search for some related matters.

In the mirror, Serene's mother, Cynthia, appeared.
