Chapter 639
Spoiled (Lily)
âLillyâs right, Iâve been stupid and taken advantage of,â Damian chuckled at himself.
Blake responded casually, âItâs not too late to realize it now.â
Damian sighed, âI understand everything now⦠Mr. MacNeil, letâs go!â
Blake raised an eyebrow, âLeave? This is just the beginning.â
Lost and confused, Damian expressed, âMr. MacNeil, I know youâre looking out for my well-being, but I donât want to be caught up in this anymore. Itâs a matter between us. Itâs too unmanly to pursue a broken relationship. Iâll just take it as Iâve been seeing the wrong person, and all my hard work has gone to wasteâ¦â
Relaxing on the sofa, Blake lazily remarked, âYour emotions may be your concern, but now itâs not about you.â
Puzzled, Damian asked, âThen whatâs it about?â
Blake responded, âWhy did I bring you out tonight?â
Damian pondered and could not help but feel a jolt in his heart, âYou mean, Rain is possessed by a ghost? Her actions⦠are influenced by a ghost!â
In that case, sheâs not acting of her own accord?
Damianâs previously desperate state became even more complex.
Blake asked with a neutral expression as he had his hands folded, âSo, can you still forgive her if she was possessed by a ghost?â
He had already explained it earlier. When a person was possessed by a ghost, itâs not only due to their lack of positive energy but also because they attract evil spirits. Only such a person would invite such a ghost.
Common signs of encountering evil spirits include sudden illnesses, inexplicable comas, madness, and abnormal behaviorâ¦
It was evident that Damian and his girlfriend had been together for several years, and Rain had always shown these signs, indicating that she was not acting on her own accord.
Hence, if was a ghostâs doing, it must be an evil spirit, falling under the category of âthe person who naturally attracts such a ghost.â
âWould you forgive her if a ghost was behind this?â Blake was somewhat at a loss for words.
Fortunately, Damian shook his head and replied, âNo, itâs just that Iâll feel a bit better.â
He and Rain had been together for three and a half years. If Rain was not possessed by an evil spirit, it meant he has been played by a woman, making him appear even more stupid.
Blake stated, âYou think youâre foolish, donât you? Thereâs no need to be embarrassed.â
âThere may not be ghosts clinging onto Rain, but thereâs known as evil spirits.â
Damian asked curiously, âWhatâs an evil spirit?â
Blake explained, âAn evil spirit is a person whose heart is filled with wicked thoughts, and these thoughts overpower their positive energy, thus becoming malevolent.â
âIn simple terms, a ghost possesses a body as an external entity, while an evil spirit embodies the essence of a ghost itself,â
Lilly mentioned that if Damian wanted to witness this evil spirit, he needed to amplify the evil thoughts within Rainâs heart.
Having investigated Rain, Blake was aware of the kind of person she was. So, cheating on Damian was just a small mistake.
Sometimes she would date someone, and the two would pretend to be a couple and attend NTR parties.
Blake used this method and posted it in an online community to attract a man.
âIf Rain had boundaries, she would have refused this man. However, she didnât decline and cooperated with him well.â
Not only did they cooperate, but they did not miss a single act that needed to be performed.
She had no shame⦠Blake wondered how exhilarating it must be for her. So, Blake wondered if he could draw out the evil spirit in her.
After listening, Damian understood what was going on.
âSo, we just have to wait?â Damian also sat on the sofa, eagerly asking.
Blake pointed to the computer and replied, âYou can also watch the live stream.â
Damian remained silent, his emotions in turmoil.
What a live stream!
He refused to watch it.
On the other side, in the luxurious suite, Rain played her part intensely, engaging in a wild escapade throughout the night.
She performed various dramatic acts, and what was noteworthy was that she managed to make it all seem genuine. It was like a soap opera, and one had to admire the director.
The first episode was about pretending to resist, disobey, and hold on.
The second episode followed where she acted uneasy after being violated, questioning whether her boyfriend would hate her once he found out.
The third episode involved helpless crying, presenting a narrative of wanting to remain faithful to her boyfriend despite her body feeling strange.
The fourth episode was âYouâre so kind. Iâm starting to like you a little.â
While the fifth episode was âItâs almost dawn. I donât care anymore. Please forget about me.â
After these five episodes, dawn approached and Rainâs eyes became tainted with a layer of blackness, resembling the darkness of night. She had been marked by darkness.
Unseen by her, the ethereal form of a baby ghost materialized on her body, bearing an uncanny resemblance to her, with closed eyesâ¦
Six oâclock in the morningâ¦
In the quiet hallway, Anthonyâs tall and upright figure appeared, accompanied by Lisa, who was still groggy and half-awake, her eyes filled with sleepiness and confusion.
âPick up Lilly?â She asked absentmindedly. âLilly⦠is here?â
Anthonyâs suit jacket was draped over her shoulders, and as she rubbed her eyes, it was on the verge of slipping off.
Anthony helped her readjust her coat and replied, âYes, sheâs here.â
Lisa responded with a vague âOhâ¦â in a daze.
Anthony could not help but chuckle. She had not fully woken up yet. When he was about to leave earlier, she had just opened the door and instinctively followed him.
âWhere is she?â Lisa held two room cards, looking bewildered.
Anthony took Lillyâs suite room card, saying, âIâll do it! Itâs room 3098â¦
Lisa stared at the room card in her hand.
3097â¦
Huh? Right next to it?
Rooms 3098 and 3097 were adjacent to each other. Just as they reached the door of 3097, Anthony continued walking towards the door of 3098, swiping the room card to open it.
Lisa exclaimed, âWow, swipe my card!â
She swiftly took the room card and swiped it, opening the door to room 3097.
Anthony muttered to himself, âLilly should still be sleepingâ¦â
It seemed he would have to carry her back.
However, to his surprise, Lisa opened the door to room 3097!
Anthonyâs eyelids twitched, and he hurriedly went over to grab her, speaking in a low voice, âWhy did you open that door?â
Lisa looked at him innocently and replied, âI swiped my card!â
Anthony was speechless.
This commotion awakened the people inside.
At that moment, Rain had just finished the fifth episode of her performance series and was exhausted, preparing to go to bed.
Unexpectedly, she heard the sound of a door being swiped open!
Her eyes shot open, wondering who was there.
Could it be⦠the person she had imagined, the one who spontaneously booked an expensive hotel room and drove a Maybach!
She quickly got up and wrapped herself in a bath towel.
Anthony grabbed the doorknob, about to close the doorâ¦
But then he heard a voice exclaim, âAh, Mr. Crawfordâ¦â
Rainâs eyes were teary, and she gazed at Anthony with a mixture of charm and distress.
âMr. Crawford, why would you play such a trick on me? You should know that I have genuine feelings for you, and my heart skipped a beat the first time I laid eyes on you. But you brought me here, only to push me into someone elseâs arms.â
Anthony was puzzled.
Rain sniffled and glanced at Lisa, asking, âIs she your girlfriend?â
Lisa was confused.
Unable to hold back her tears, Rain softly spoke, âItâs alright, I understand⦠But next time, please let me know in advance, okay?â
It turned out that Rain had misunderstood the situation.
Seeing Anthony use the room card to open the door of that room early in the morning, she mistakenly believed that he was the one who had been chatting with her!
Looking at it from that perspective, everything suddenly made sense. Anthony coincidentally encountered her at the mall, and she playfully teased him. However, he pretended to be uninterested, when in fact he must have been eager inside, but unable to show it in front of the children and others.
So, he secretly added her accountâ¦
âI hate youâ¦â Rain said, her eyes welling up with tears. âDonât let this happen again in the futureâ¦â
Anthony and Lisa were both dumbfounded.
