Chapter 58 Secretly Eating Candy
Lilly looked at Ivan curiously. The way Ivan walks is so weird, and he just looks straight ahead after
sitting down.
She shook her head. “Sigh, he’s like an adult even though he’s still young.” Recently, people had been
saying that she did not act her age, so she imitated them.
Ivan pursed his lips and suddenly stretched out his hand. “This is for you.”
Lilly lowered her head to take a glance and saw a fruit candy lying in his palm. The transparent
wrapping showed the pink candy inside. It seemed like it was strawberry flavor.
She asked, “Is it for me?”
Ivan nodded.
Lilly asked again, “You only have one, so did you specially prepare it for me?” She thought that it was
better to properly ask.
There were two of them, so one piece of candy was not enough. What if Ivan cried after she ate it?
Ivan turned away coldly and said, “Of course not. I just took it at the entrance.”
After confirming that Ivan did not want to eat it, Lilly picked up the candy with a swift movement. She
even glanced to the side secretly. Uncle Anthony and Mr. Shaw are still talking.
Seeing that the adults were not paying attention, Lilly quickly unwrapped the candy and ate it. After
that, she sat upright and put her hands on her knees, looking straight ahead.
Ivan looked at his palm. When Lilly was picking up the candy just now, her fingers touched his palm. It
felt like his tortoise at home touching his hand…
“Is it good?” Ivan asked.
Lilly nodded. “It is! Shh… Don’t talk.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf her Uncle Anthony found out, he would not let her eat it.
Ivan looked straight ahead and stayed silent for a moment. He soon could not help but ask, “Are you
afraid of your Uncle Anthony?”
Lilly chewed the candy and said, “Of course not… It’s just that I had a cavity, so Uncle Anthony and
Grandma don’t allow me to eat candies.”
Ivan said, “Then you shouldn’t eat them.” If he had known, he would not have given her the candy.
Lilly immediately covered her mouth. “It has already entered my mouth, so I’m not spitting it out.”
Ivan’s mouth twitched as he said, “You shouldn’t spit it out.” How could she spit it out?
Lilly nodded. “Mmhm! I won’t spit it out since I’ve eaten it! The candy is sweet, and I love candy!” Lilly
looked at Ivan curiously. The way Ivan walks is so weird, and he just looks straight ahead after sitting
down.

“Hehe, Mr. Evens, you’re going overboerd!”
She would never spit it out. Even if she was discovered, she would rather swallow it.
Ivan glanced at her from the corner of his eyes. Seeing Lilly’s chubby face, she looked like a little
bunny that had secretly eaten a carrot. With the candy in her mouth, her mouth was pursed, and her
cheeks naturally puffed out a little. It was adorable.
Ivan then looked away. “Thank you for the other day,” he calmly said as he stared straight ahead.
Lilly was focused on eating the candy, feeling the sweet taste spread in her mouth. She was
dumbfounded when she heard Ivan suddenly thanking her. “Huh?”
Ivan did not say anything else. On the stage, the host was speaking continuously. He thought it was

licked her lips, looking unfulfilled.
Ivan asked, “Why do you like candy so much?”
Lilly held her sippy cup and drank some water as she said, “Because it’s sweet! Life is bitter, but candy
is sweet.”
Ivan was stunned. He could not believe that she could say such words.
Lilly looked innocent as she blinked. “When I was hit by Stepmom, and Daddy did not want to hear my
explanation, I felt very sad.” This sadness was probably life’s bitterness.
Then, she coincidentally picked up a piece of candy from under the couch. She was starving at that
time, so she vividly remembered the sweetness of the candy.
Ivan stayed silent, but he kept Lilly’s words in his mind. He kept in mind that she liked candy.

“The kid is just joking… The Crawford family dotes on that child more than we can imagine?”
“Gentle light… What nonsense.”
“If Master Sullivan was the one saying it, I might believe it, but it’s a kid we’re talking about. If a gentle
light actually appears, I’ll shave my head.”
“Haha, Mr. Evans, you’re going overboard!”
