âMom, why isnât Dorothy going on her own?â Lady Beatrice Assex asked.
Lady Beatrice still wanted to stay in bed. After being dragged out of bed by Madame Claire Assex,
Lady Beatrice was still in an unpleasant mood.
They were going to burn incense and pray because Madame Claire had already found out what
happened at Dorothy-Alex Constructions the day before. The company nearly got shut down, and
Madame Claire was so scared that she couldnât sleep the entire night.
If the company really was shut down, what would their family live on?
Hence, Madame Claire decided to burn incense at Ereve Temple.
âYour sister is managing such a large company. How could she leave?â Madame Claire said.
âSigh. Hurry up, will you? Whatâs taking you so long? Did you fall into the toilet bowl?â Madame Claire
asked.
âMy period is here, and Iâm putting on my sanitary pad. Would you like to do it for me?â Lady Beatrice
asked.
âIf you want me to put on your pad for you, would you like me to get married on your behalf too?â asked
Madame Claire in return.
âSure, Mom. I thinkyouâre starting to desire men now. I donât mind. Hurry up and get married on my
behalf. Have a child for me too while youâre at it,â Lady Beatrice said.
âYouâre nuts!â Madame Claire exclaimed.
The two bickered on and on until finally, they prepared everything, got into the car, and left the house.
Just as they got out of the front door in their new Mercedes-Benz, they bumped into two men wearing
black clothes. After seeing them, Lady Beatrice discovered that the two men by the road were staring
directly at her. Their facial expressions and gazes were both very odd.
It felt a little eerie.
Despite the hot weather, she still felt chills down her spine.
âMom, why are these two people so weird? They have scary looks in their eyes,â Lady Beatrice said.
Madame Claire noticed them too, and she began to rant. âItâs still early in the morning, and it should
have been a fortuitous time. I have no idea where these two idiots came from. They look like deities,
and they seem to be wearing burial clothes. These two must be lunatics,â she said.
Meanwhile, Lady Beatrice saw something even creepier.
There was a black coffin behind those two men.
âMom, that⦠Thatâs a coffin, right? Did someone die in the neighborhood?â Lady Beatrice asked.
When Madame Claire fixed her gaze on it, she became even angrier.
This was the main entrance of her personal villa. Why were these people here with a coffin?
Madame Claire immediately became furious. She brought the car to a screeching halt before lowering
the electronic car window. âAre you two sick? Why did you place a coffin in front of our house? Hurry up
and take it away!â she yelled.
Those two men were of course two of Levi Bayerâs ghost servants.
When Madame Claire yelled at them, their facial expressions didnât change at all. Their pale faces
seemingly belonged to zombies that wouldnât decay even after a thousand years. There were even
dim, green lights in their eyes.
They had their gazes locked upon Lady Beatrice. Earlier, they couldnât see clearly through the car
window. Now that Madame Claire had lowered the window, they could see her very clearly.
The ghost servants glanced at each other and nodded. When Ma dame Claire saw that they were not
lifting the coffin up and were ignoring her completely, she became even angrier all of a sudden. She
unbuckled her seatbelt and ran down to point a finger at the nose of one of them. âDidnât you hear me?
Are you deaf? Move the coffin away right now. Otherwise, Iâll get someone to break your legs!â
Lady Beatrice frowned.
She felt that these two menâs bodies were filled with a sense of eeriness. They didnât seem like good
people.
Lady Beatrice was afraid that they would be in trouble for offending these two men. âMom, get back into
the car. Stop talking. Weâll just let the property staff deal with them,â she said.
As soon as Lady Beatrice finished speaking, one of the ghost servants lashed out and punched
Madame Claire in the stomach.
Bish!
Madame Claire was a weak lady. How could she withstand an attack from a ghost servant? She was
immediately sent flying, and her body hit the door of the Benz with tremendous force.
âPffâ¦â
Madame Claireâs body vibrated, and she instantly spurted out a mouthful of blood.
It felt as if her organs had shifted around in her body. Her stomach ached so badly that she couldnât
even speak Limply, she collapsed to the ground.
If Madame Claire had worn the pearl necklace William Rockefeller gave her, she might not have
suffered this badly.
However, she was going to burn incense and pray today. Since she felt that wearing jewelry with pearls
would make her appear insincere, she removed the necklace in the morning. As a resultâ¦
