Chapter 358 The Dramatic Cat

The members of the Crawford family promptly replied after watching the video.

Anthony said, “Bring it home.”

Liam said, “Lilly is so cute!”

Bryson said, “I’m at the airport. Just got off my flight. I want to head home right now!”

Jonas said, “Tsk… what an unscrupulous cat.”

Edward said, “Bring it home! Damn. It’s not like we can’t afford it!”

Max said, “Keep it.”

Blake, who was among them, said, “Don’t you have a dash cam? Show it.”

Gilbert answered.

Cloud said, “Contact the cops! Leave it up to them.”

Gilbert answered in gibberish.

Can you not…?

Bettany finally replied after watching the video a few times, “Lilly will be home soon? I’ll start preparing

dinner. I’ll prepare some cat food too.”

Hugh said, “You need to ask that?”

Gilbert said, “Lilly is worried the cat would hurt Polly.”

The group fell silent.

Anthony said, “Chain the cat.”

Liam answered with nothing but a long string of periods.

Jonas said, “Anthony, that’s a cat. Not a dog.”

Edward offered, “Chain Polly up?”

Gilbert didn’t know what to say to that.

Blake said, “Sounds like a plan.”

Polly would thank them.

Gilbert felt defeated to see how unreliable everyone was being.

He put his phone away and knelt at the head of the car

“Should we… bring it home with us?” He asked.

The cat suddenly opened an eye to observe them with cars pricked up.

Lilly was biting her nails. “What if it already has an owner? I don’t want to be a baddie who steals cats.”

“Meow!”

“See? It says it doesn’t have one,” Gilbert declared with full confidence.

“….

And how would you know that?” Pablo questioned.

Lilly said worriedly, “T-Then… you can’t grab Polly!”

“You can’t bully Polly or Mr. Tortoise”

“If if you bully them…”

“We’ll castrate you!” Gilbert declared.

“…” The cat stared at him.

Pablo didn’t know what to say to that.

Lilly looked confused.

What does castrate mean?

That was how the tabby cat ended up back at the Crawford home.

The moment they were past the gates of the Crawford mansion, it leaped out of the window and

vanished.

Lilly leaned out the window. “Come back…”

Oh no!

That’s the grove where Polly plays!

Polly was pecking at the grass as usual when a dark shadow sped toward her with claws brandished.

Polly squawked in shock. “Who snuck up on me?!”

The cat continued to chase the bird.

Polly flailed about and screeched, “Help! Help! I’m getting eaten!”

The cat had scampered out to familiarize itself with its surroundings only to see a man grazing grass.

That cannot do.

It was now Lilly’s cat. Mice and destructive birds were not allowed here. It was going to show the bird

who

was boss!

It pounced without thinking.

The bird, however, escaped from its clutches.

The cat wasn’t human. How would it know who “Polly was?

It kept trying to chase the parrot down until Lilly arrived to which Polly perched herself on her shoulder.

The glowing green parrot squawked its complaints with teary-eyes. “It’s picking on met”

Lilly angrily put her hands on her hips to teach the cat lesson. “I told you not to bully Polly and you

disobey me!”

She then added, “I’ll castrate you!”

“…Meow.”

By the time Gilbert caught up to her, Bettany, Hugh, Josh, and Hannah arrived on the scene.

Blake was also in their midst.

Everyone heard her.

“What does neuter mean?” Hannah asked.

The group fell silent.

Bettany’s expression was thunderous. “Who taught her hat?”

Gilbert nervously looked away as he dripped cold sweat

He usually found it funny whenever Anthony and Blak were reprimanded but here he was on the

receiving end this time.

He locked eyes with Blake.

Blake held up his hands in surrender. “Don’t look at me I didn’t do it this time.”

Bettany smiled. “Who taught you that word, Lilly?”

Lilly noticed how Gilbert was giving her signals and begging for her to save him.

She lowered her head and muttered quietly, “It… It was Mr. Joel.”

Every blame could be pinned on Joel.

Lilly, who was uneasily fidgeting her fingers, felt guilty for lying. Gilbert was close to tears.

Bettany was throwing Gilbert suspicious looks. He immediately took a more serious stance as he

explained, “Joel Jenkins is a relative of the Evans family

He also went into slight detail on what the man was like

Bettany had nothing more to say after hearing about Joel’s unpleasant way of speech. Was she

supposed to expose both her darling granddaughter and Gilbert out in the open?

But what terrible grandchildren!

Josh and Hannah had completely forgotten about the conversation and were excitedly crouching down

in

front of the cat.

The cat backed away in alert and retreated toward Lilly as it let out low snarls.

“I hear cats do that when they warn you to stay away if I’m remembering this right,” Josh said.

Hannah held our her hand. “Is it afraid of us?”

Josh backed away. “I think we should be the ones afraid of it.”

What a ferocious-looking cat.

I understand why Uncle Gilbert was so unsure when he asked about it in the group chat…

Hannah acted bravely. “Tch! You’re the scared one. I’m not…”

Lilly tried to caution her. “Don’t do that, Hannah!”

Hannah got herself clawed by the cat before Lilly could finish, giving her a thin, bleeding scratch on the

back of her hand.

She immediately backed away in fright before starting to viciously threaten the creature, “You’re our cat

now! How dare you hurt me?! Wanna eat? Too bad you’re not getting dinner now!”

Polly was celebrating. “Caw… No dinner! No dinner!”

“Are you okay, Hannah?” Lilly asked, concerned.

Lilly’s care for her made her forget she had been hurt for a split second. I’m okay. It only hurts a little

bit.

I’m fine!”

Unbeknownst to her, she wasn’t going to be able to keep smiling for much longer…..
