"Interesting people?"
Sarah thought for a moment before realizing who Denise was referring to.
"Are you talking about that woman? The one with Mrs. Clemens..." The word "humiliate" almost slipped from her mouth, but she quickly bit her tongue and rephrased, "The one who made things difficult for you."
"Her name is Candice Hale."
"I don’t remember her name, I only remember her seductive fox-like face."
"That’s her."
"How did you know she came to Shandor? And that she’s over at Grandma’s place?"
"Of course I know," Denise placed a hand on her shoulder, stepping behind her. Her voice was light, floating into her ear. "Nothing escapes my eyes."
"Do you know that woman’s pregnant?"
"……"
The air seemed to freeze.
Denise’s fingers tightened slightly on her shoulder.
After a long pause, she gave a slightly awkward laugh. "See, I shouldn’t have boasted.
Edward paused his movements and calmly said, “Miss Clarke, we meet again.”Sophia’s gaze was unfocused and distant.She stared at the top-tier handsome face illuminated by the light in the darkness, looking at it intently for a long time. As her eyes began to brighten, she suddenly called out in excitement, “Grandpa!”Edward froze: “…”There was no need for such politeness.“Call me ‘brother,’ no need to call me grandpa. If you keep calling me that, I’ll have wrinkles from it.”“Grandpa!” Sophia didn’t care what he said, she had her own script to follow. She nervously looked around, spotting the hole above her. In despair, she shouted, “Have we been captured by the snake spirit and dragged into her lair?”Edward: “…”Snake spirit? Lair?And grandpa… is this a twist of the “Calabash Brothers” story?He turned her face toward him. “Which one are you, the youngest?”“I’m Sophia, your granddaughter. Grandpa, have you forgotten?” Sophia said with a look that conveyed, We’ve been together,
Candice: "…!"What??For someone whose mental state was on the verge of collapse after a night of being pushed to the edge by a bunch of "crazy" people, these misleading words could really make her snap."My illusion?""Are you telling me that Sophia didn’t just disappear, and that Rex didn’t jump off the second floor? These were all just my illusions? The crazy one is me?""Then does that mean I can now suspect that you're also made up?""Is it that when I blink, you disappear too? Sophia, Rex, and I could be happily watching TV in the living room, and then you vanish?"She was overthinking.Caught between being somewhat awake but still unsure of whether she was truly awake.Charlie: "…"He fell silent for a few seconds, regretting teasing her.His original intent was to take her away from here. As a pregnant woman, she really shouldn’t stay in such a place. But with Sophia still missing, she wouldn’t leave unless he tricked her into going back.Seeing that he wasn’t speaking, Candic
Edward led his group, accompanying Charlie in the search.Jerry was tasked with staying in the yard to keep an eye on Rex.Looking at the CEO, who was moving with such a chilling aura, Jerry poked Rex on the forehead. "This time you're really in trouble. When he comes back, he’s going to skin you alive."Rex stared at Charlie’s retreating figure, saying firmly, “He won’t. The young master is an immortal. He’s a good person.”Jerry: "…"Good news: He hasn’t lost his memory; he remembers everyone.Bad news: He’s woven everyone into his script.Candice trudged into the cemetery, one step in, one step out.She hadn’t had time to grab a flashlight while chasing Sophia, but luckily, the moonlight was bright tonight. After her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she could roughly make out the shapes around her, so she wasn’t stumbling blindly.“Sophia, don&rsqu
Sophia crossed her arms, pacing angrily around the living room. "The children need their parents right now! The oldest one is crying like this, and you don’t even care! And Charlie—where is that so-called father of theirs?"Candice: "..."He was thrown out.Sophia went on, ranting about Charlie for a while, getting so worked up that she kicked a stool over. The poor little stool's leg snapped with a loud crack.Candice dared not interrupt her.After a while, Sophia suddenly stopped and began anxiously counting something in the air, her expression tense. She counted several times, "Why is there one missing? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6... only six! Where’s the other one?"Candice tried to suggest, "Did you forget that one of them can become invisible?""Sophia!!"The roar came at her like a hurricane."Are you still in the mood for jokes?! Do you think you gave birth to elf? Those are your and Charlie’s biolog
"huh?"Candice glanced around.Next to her was a pot of green ivy, and beyond that, there was only the door and the hallway. There was no such thing as elf... No, it was impossible for such living creatures to exist!!Realizing the severity of the situation, she quickly turned to Sophia. Seeing that her eyes were still wide open, locked on something in the air, it seemed she had entered a kind of trance-like state.Had she fallen asleep? Was she sleepwalking?Sophia didn’t have sleepwalking issues.Candice didn’t dare to act hastily. She cautiously tried blocking Sophia’s eyes with her hand.Sophia grabbed Candice’s hand. "I can't see anymore."Candice: …… Okay, not sleepwalking.Then... what? Possessed?She carefully asked, "What can’t you see?"By now, Sophia had relaxed. She pointed at the air, her eyes filled with amazement. "Didn’t you see? They’r
