The Princess to Eight Uncles (Lily And Mr. Crawford) Chapter 480

Chapter 480 Lisa’s Not Dead

Veronica’s thoughts were indeed calculated. In her twisted logic, by killing her relatives and saving the Crawford family during their time of disaster, she believed she would become the heroic benefactor of the Crawford family.

Unfortunately, her mental faculties seemed to have abandoned her, preventing her from realizing the contradiction in her actions. Instead, she now accused the Crawford family of hiding the corpse, unknowingly exacerbating the disaster she had caused.

Lilly shook her head in disbelief and whispered to Jack, “Has her mind been eaten?”

Pablo chimed in. “Yes, she has,”

Lilly’s eyes widened in surprise. “Seriously? Her brain has been eaten?”

Pablo replied. “Don’t speak, let’s focus on resolving the current situation.”

Lilly quickly covered her mouth, realizing the need for silence at that moment.

“Corpse?” Anthony said coldly. “You mean her?”

He turned around as he spoke.

Huh? Where did she go?

Anthony was taken aback when he realized that Lisa was still in the living room when both the police officer and the McCarthy family entered the premises. However, given her pale complexion. Veronica and the others probably had not noticed her.

How could Lisa suddenly disappear now?

Jack quickly whispered to Margaret, “Where is Lady Lisa?”

Margaret was equally bewildered. “She was here just a moment ago!”

The second elder of the McCarthy family sneered, “What’s the matter? Can’t the show continue?”

Veronica exclaimed, “Of course, the corpse isn’t here! Why would the body be here…”

The steward interrupted, ‘Just search and you’ll find out!”

The steward’s toothless speech, resembling that of an elderly woman, irritated him greatly

The police officer was about to respond when suddenly a dog barked. They noticed a woman

Mon,

standing silently under the large tree in the garden, her emaciated figure resembling nothing more than a collection of bones. Her pale face appeared lifeless as if she had just emerged. from the realm of the dead.

The police officer’s gaze fixated on her. Years of experience in handling cases allowed them to quickly recognize that this woman was not in a normal state and appeared to be deceased!

In previous cases, there had been instances where murderers disguised the corpses to appear as if they were still alive. The police officer considered this possibility while observing the motionless woman before them.

Veronica was startled, taking a moment to comprehend that the lifeless figure nearby was her sister. The sudden turn of events made her pale even further. It must have been the consequence of her sister’s demise after the parasite was crushed.

Veronica quickly exclaimed, “Ah… that’s my sister… that’s my sister!”

The second elder of the McCarthy family sneered, “Officer, do you see? The woman before us is the corpse we have been searching for! She belongs to our McCarthy family!”

The police officers hesitated to approach, concerned that there might be delicate threads or evidence surrounding the scene that could inadvertently be disturbed.

“Are you certain?” one of the police officers inquired cautiously.

The second elder of the McCarthy family spoke with a heavy tone, insisting, “Absolutely!”

His gaze shifted towards Anthony as he continued. “I thought you were so confident. Is that why you placed the deceased under the large tree to create the illusion of them being alive for the police officer?”

Veronica wept, her voice filled with anguish, “My poor sister… How could this happen? I didn’t believe it at first, but now I do! It turns out that the two elders truly killed my sister…”

The two elders of the McCarthy family were taken aback, their expressions filled with confusion and surprise.

Veronica, seizing the opportunity upon seeing her sister’s “corpse”, could not help but express her stance immediately, fearing that if she hesitated, she might not get another chance. With grief and anger, she pointed accusingly at Steward, saying, “Last night, the elder asked me to accompany him to the desolate mountain. He claimed that my sister was worthless, squandering the resources of the McCarthy family and that he intended to kill

her!”

“I couldn’t believe it back then, especially considering that my sister was also a member of the McCarthy family! I never anticipated that not only did the elder murder my sister, but they also framed the Crawford family, all to gain control over the two children…

Steward and the Second elder of the McCarthy family were speechless.

Both of them were consumed by doubt, as the situation seemed riddled with inconsistencies, leaving them unsure where to begin in their refutation.

“You idiot!” The steward struck Veronica across the face.

Veronica collapsed to the ground, wailing loudly towards Lisa in the distance, “Sister! Your fate was so cruel! I couldn’t bring myself to believe the elders would stoop this low, but seeing you here today, I now realize my mistake. Boohoo….”

Everyone remained silent.

Veronica, already emotionally charged, took out a USB exclaiming. “These are the evidence. revealing the unlawful detention and mistreatment my sister endured at the hands of the First Elder and the Second Elder! My sister was deceived until her final moments, and they imprisoned me as well. My sister never disclosed this to me, but she suffered brutal torture under their custody. The situation was grave and malicious!”

Steward was taken aback by that.

The police officer received the evidence.

Beneath the tree, Lisa remained expressionless, she did not blink and stood motionlessly.

The two police officers stood on high alert, with one of them calling for backup and urgently requesting the presence of a forensic doctor.

Suddenly, Lisa raised her hand.

A wave of tension swept through everyone present.

Upon closer inspection, it became apparent that Lisa tightly grasped two dog leashes in her

hands.

Mechanically, she slowly extended her five fingers and released the leashes.

“I’m mean!” she declared.

At that moment, the general and the watchman dogs barked ferociously and darted forward!

Veronica and the rest stood there in utter bewilderment, their expressions filled with confusion and disbelief.

Meanwhile, the members of the Crawford family maintained a stoic silence, their emotions. difficult to discern.

Without a moment to spare, General pounced on Veronica, sinking his teeth into her with a fierce grip.

The police officer quickly instructed the Crawford family to restrain the dog and driven by his duty, he rushed to rescue Veronica from the dog’s clutches.

Once freed, Veronica’s face bore the brutal marks of the attack, with her features mauled beyond recognition. Only her nose remained intact.

“Ah… Ah!!! My face… It hurts so much!” Veronica trembled as she gingerly touched her disfigured face. She recoiled in horror, screaming, “I’ll kill you!”

Despite the police officer’s attempts to hold her back, she still lunged at the dog, but she ended up right in front of General again, who instinctively clamped down on her nose without hesitation.

Now, even her nose had been bitten, worsening her injuries.

Veronica screamed like a pig.

The police officer was left nearly speechless as he observed Veronica’s condition, simultaneously urging the Crawford family to take the dog away and keeping a watchful eye on Lisa, to prevent any attempts to tamper with the “corpse.”

However, just as the dog was being pulled away, they witnessed Lisa spring into action.

Without bending her knees, she charged straight at Veronica, using her head as a battering.

ram.

Boom…

Veronica’s nose instantly gushed with blood, causing everyone to be forcefully propelled backward. The damage inflicted on her face, which was already difficult to behold, became

even more severe.

Lisa stood firmly in her place, fixing her gaze upon Veronica, and repeated with clarity, “I’m

mean!”

Then, she abruptly lunged towards Steward, grabbing his shoulder and forcefully smashing. her head into his face.

“Damn it!” she exclaimed vehemently, “Damn it!”

Everyone present stood there in stunned silence, their expressions a mix of shock and. confusion.
