Chapter 753
Spoiled (Lily)
After being discharged from the hospital, Richie was working at home.
He got up to work on a document while his wife was asleep. The situation suddenly took a sharp turn for the worse. When he was sent to the hospital for resuscitation, he was not breathing.
Lilly came over to see him one last time, only to see him floating above his own body.
The rich ghost patted Richieâs spirit, âBro, Iâmâ¦â
Seeing Lilly arrive, âIâm leaving.â
He was an honest ghost. He said he would help a person to get rich and he did it.
Lilly grabbed him with her hands. The rich spirit yelled, âHey, let go of me! I didnât do anything bad. Iâm just collecting deadly energy. This is my first assignment. I didnât do any harm!â
Why would I let you go? Youâre a rich spirit after all.
âYou sounded like Uncle Richieâs death had nothing to do with you.â
He retorted, âCan I decide whether he lives or dies? I canât! Only the Ruler of Hell could do it. What does it have to do with me?â
Lilly shook her head and said, âThe life expectancy on the Book of Life recorded the maximum life expectancy that the Ruler of Hell allows you. Uncle Richieâs life expectancy is 51 years old. He is only 46 years old now. That means he can live up to 51 and itâs up to him to escape the disasters.â
After being discharged from the hospital, Richie was working at home.
Lilly had said several times to catch the spirit for Richie but he refused.
Lilly had said several times to catch the spirit for Richie but he refused.
âSo, it has nothing to do with me!â Lilly waved her hand.
The harem spirit asked, âWhat do you mean? If the Ruler of Hell wants you dead, you couldnât refuse him, right?â
âLife expectancy is different from the time of death. Death is divided into normal death and abnormal death. Uncle Richie died from abnormal death. There is room for flexibility between death and life expectancy,â Lilly recited what Pablo said.
Everyone was still confused and Lilly explained to them once again.
Lilly looked at Richieâs spirit and asked, âAre you regretting now?â
Richie finally came back to his senses, he panicked, âYes, I do. I want to go back to my body⦠I want to go back!â He lay on his corpse and refused to go. Only after he died, he realized that the most important thing was life. How could someone earn money when their life is gone? He had not been able to enjoy the money he earned. Looking back he had a lot of regrets.
Lilly shook her head, âItâs too late now. Rest in peace.â
Everything was meaningless to Richie now. He watched his wife and children crying beside his body.
His wife scolded, âWhy are you so stupid? Why are you working when you havenât fully recovered?â
He heard his youngest child crying, âDad, you donât want us anymore?â
He saw his oldest son, forced to take responsibility for his funeral at age 19. He was scrambling to make phone calls and arrangements.
His elderly mother fainted.
The whole family was in a mess.
He was busy with work no matter where he was. He never paid attention to his family members. He only paid attention to money.
Richie cried, but he could never go back.
After leaving the Quinn family, Lilly sighed, âYouâd only know who you loved the most when youâre drunk. Youâd only know life is the most important after you die.â
âWhere did you learn that?â Blake asked.
âI learned it from the TV!
âKids shouldnât watch TV all the time!â
Lilly was fascinated by how the rich spirit died. She grabbed the corner of his clothes, âRich spirit, how did you die?â
âLet go of me!â he shouted.
Lilly asked, âDid you die by being too rich?â
Rich spirit struggled, âPut me down!â
âDid you get crushed to death by money?â
âDo not force me to surrenderâ¦â
The harem spirit gave him a slap, âJust tell the story!â
âCan you respect me? Iâll tell you in a short while.â
