## Biography

### Early Life

Not much is known about Lillie's past but she once mentioned to her older daughter that during the time when she went through puberty, she experienced first menstruation. She was intimidated and she thought that she would "bleed to death".

### Everybody's Favourite Friend: Amity

Lillie made her debut in Book 3. As Mia was preparing to go to school, Lillie asked her daughter to help her to babysit the twins for her after she got home from school.

### Tiny Terror: Manners

Lillie was seen greeting Mia, Joni and Emilia once they returned from school. She then introduced her friend, Rose to Candy JEM and Mia told her that she and her friends were going to her room to do their homework.

As Candy JEM had headed to Mia's room, Rose complimented on how well-behaved Mia is while Lillie accepted her compliment happily. She told Rose that Mia helped her a lot with the house chores and in taking care of the younger twins since she was frequently busy with her job. When she saw Rose sighing, she asked what happened and Rose told her that her two children were not as well-behaved as Mia, especially her younger daughter due to her being born with a weak heart. After an operation which cured her younger daughter's condition, Rose and her husband doted on their daughter too much until she became spoiled. Lillie then sympathized with Rose by telling her that her daughter's condition was very troublesome to deal with.

### Banding Against Bullies: Anti-bullying

Lillie was seen complimenting on how beautiful Rose's house was. She told Rose that even though they are friends for so long, this was the first time she was invited to her house for a visit and thanks to their kids, they finally had a chance to sit down and chat with each other. As Charles ran past the two mothers, Lillie complimented on how hardworking and polite Charles was with Rose declining by saying that her son does not behave like this usually and the reason why he was behaving so unusually was because there were guests in the house.
