Chapter 189

Chapter 189 Will Meet Soon Menu It was late at night, and the cold wind was biting. Not a single person could be seen in the alley. Sonya looked around, feeling as if a pair of malicious eyes was staring at her.

After getting back to the restaurant, she glanced at the time and thought about sending Henry back to his apartment. After that, she would hurry to the old house to pick up Milton.

With this thought in mind, she stepped onto the stairs. Just then, she heard a noise beside her. She turned her head and saw a man pressing a woman against a nearby tree trunk, kissing her.

The man was tall, contrasting with the woman who was very petite and delicate. They kissed passionately, oblivious to the fact that they were on the street.

Sonya withdrew her leg from the stairs, took a deep breath, and turned around to leave. However, Jasmine saw her and called out to stop her.

“Sonya, Henry just came to look for you. Did you see him? He...”

Before Jasmine finished her words, she saw the two “H–Henry?”

people in front of her door.

The man, upon hearing Jasmine’s voice, let go of the woman. After a moment of silence, he slowly turned around. It was Henry!

He took a quick glance at Sonya and then looked at Jasmine, smirking.

“I have my girlfriend pick me up, so you don’t have to worry, Jasmine.”

As Henry turned around, Lyla’s face also appeared. She tightly leaned against the tree trunk like a startled little rabbit.

But when Jasmine saw Lyla’s face, she frowned.

“Henry, come with me!” she snapped at Henry.

“Jasmine, I think I have to go back...”

“Come with me!” Jasmine shouted.

Henry pursed his lips and followed Jasmine into the house.

Sonya felt quite speechless about this. Jasmine asked her to take Henry home, but Henry called Lyla over to pick him up.

She complained in her heart, “He really should at least tell me about it. I’ve waited for so long. “Well, forget it. I don’t care.”

Just as Sonya was about to leave, Lyla called out to her.

“Ms. Ella, actually, I came with Henry.”

Hearing Lyla’s words, Sonya raised an eyebrow, not knowing her meaning.

After a moment of silence, Lyla said, “Just now, you saw me.”

“Just now?” Sonya was still confused.

“I I was just standing across the road,” Lyla said, pointing Sonya narrowed her eyes, asking, “Are you saying that the person Lyla pursed her lips slightly, asking back, “Who else would it be?”

“But you weren’t wearing these clothes just now.”

“I went back and changed into another outfit.”

I just saw was you?”

Menu “A student bumped into me and spilled a drink on me, so I went back to change my clothes, which made me arrive late.”

“But Lily told me that you were “Are you sure the one she saw was me?”

still on the set at that time, and she saw you.”

Sonya pursed her lips. She didn’t see it with her own eyes, so she naturally couldn’t be a hundred percent sure.

“Anyway, don’t overthink. The person you saw just now was me. It was definitely not the person you were thinking of. She’s already dead. Actually, whenever I mention that person, I feel a sense of gloom. After all, it’s been so long since she died, right?”

Lyla’s words were illogical, and the smile on her also face seemed a bit forced.

And after she finished speaking, she noticed that Sonya seemed not to have heard what she said. Instead, Sonya was staring at her lips with a slightly furrowed brow.

“What’s wrong? Did my makeup smudge?”

Sonya shook her head. Lyla’s lipstick hadn’t smudged at all, which was strange. Just now, Henry had pressed Lyla against the tree and kissed her passionately, but the lipstick on her lips remained bright and full, without any trace of friction.

It could only indicate one thing. Just now, Henry did not kiss Lyla. It was just their postures that made Sonya misunderstand.

Sonya wondered, “Why did he have to pretend like that?

“Just to show that to me?

“Well, is it necessary?”

Sonya chuckled speechlessly. Ignoring Lyla, she walked towards her car. Unexpectedly, Lyla followed her even to the front of the car.

“Ms. Ella, you... You haven’t put me out of your blacklist yet.”

Sonya, who was about to open the car door, paused in her actions and turned to look at Lyla with a puzzled expression on her face.

She put Lyla on her blacklist because she didn’t want any contact with her. This wasn’t hard to understand, was it?

But Lyla repeatedly asked Sonya, even begged Sonya, to pull her out of the blacklist. Sonya really didn’t know what tricks Lyla was playing this time.

“Ms. Ella, please, I beg you. I won’t bother you if I’m fine. But once I call you, it must be when I’m about to die. So please, you must put me out of your blacklist.”

After saying this, Lyla looked around as if she was wary of someone. And then, she quickly went back.

Sonya was completely puzzled by the series of inexplicable actions by Henry and Lyla. As she drove home, she kept wondering what they were up to, but she just couldn’t figure it out.

After she parked her car and got out, the florist called her and said that someone had ordered a bouquet of flowers for her. The staff had already delivered the flowers to her house, but she was not at home at that time.

“Ms. Ella, could you please come over now to pick up your flowers? My staff has already gone off work, but I still have a customer here, so I can’t leave.”

Sonya was quite familiar with this florist, so she didn’t give her a hard time and agreed to go to her flower shop right away.

Meanwhile, she wondered, “Who ordered the flowers for me?”

After she arrived at the flower shop, the florist handed her a beautifully wrapped bouquet of narcissus lilies.

< Chapter 189 Will Meet Soon “Ms. Ella, that young lady asked me to recommend a flower to express the joy of reuniting with you. So I recommended narcissus lilies to her. Are you two good friends? It must have been many years since you last met, right?” the florist said.

“A young lady?”

“Yeah.”

Sonya thought carefully for a moment but couldn’t figure out who it might be.

“Did she leave a name?” she asked the florist.

“No. But she said you would meet soon, 50 there was no need to leave a name.”

“Will meet soon?” Sonya repeated these words in her heart with a frown.

Because the florist had to attend to other customers, Sonya didn’t ask any more questions and left the flower shop with the bouquet of narcissus lilies.

As she walked along the roadside towards the villa, she heard footsteps behind her. When she turned around, she saw a woman with long hair walking behind her. That woman was wearing a leather jacket, with her hands in her pockets and her head down.

When Sonya saw this, her heart skipped a beat. She quickly crossed the road while there were no cars, walking briskly towards the villa. When she reached the doorstep, she looked back again, but the woman was already gone.

Sonya somehow felt a sense of disappointment. It was as if the truth was about to be revealed, but her fear caused the truth to drift further away.

She lowered her head and looked at the bouquet of flowers in her arms, thinking, “Looking forward to reuniting with me, huh?

“Then let’s meet tonight.”

With this thought in mind, Sonya turned and walked along the path towards the woods next to the villa area.

After walking for a short distance, she heard the footsteps again, sometimes near and sometimes far.

Sonya didn’t look back and kept walking forward until she reached a pond in the woods.

There was a pillar standing by the fish pond, with a lamp hanging on it. Sonya stood there, waiting and listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer.

She felt extremely nervous. She was not Henry, and she was not crazy. What she saw was not an illusion, and she would not be fooled by a few lame words.

She had to see for herself whether the “Zoey” she saw was a human or a ghost.

After thinking so, she took a deep breath and then turned around to look behind her.
