A Ghost Story Explained

Lila est une jeune paysanne qui quitte son village avec un seul objectif : travailler en ville pour sauver sa mère malade. Naïve mais déterminée, elle découvre rapidement une réalité bien plus cruelle. Elle tombe amoureuse d’un homme qui se présente comme doux et attentionné, mais qui n’est en réalité qu’un escroc endetté. Lorsqu’il disparaît en volant toutes ses économies, Lila se retrouve brisée, seule… et bientôt piégée. Un soir, des hommes en noir l’emmènent de force devant Victor Palacios, un homme puissant, froid, à la tête d’un empire criminel. Victor lui annonce une vérité insupportable : son ancien compagnon a contracté des dettes colossales en utilisant son nom. Lila devient alors une monnaie d’échange. Séquestrée dans une villa luxueuse, privée de liberté, elle subit la domination psychologique et physique d’un homme aussi dangereux que contradictoire. Victor est cruel, imprévisible, obsédé par le contrôle. Pourtant, derrière cette violence se cache un passé ravagé par la mort de ses parents et une descente progressive dans l’inhumanité. Lila tente de survivre en se soumettant, en s’effaçant, jusqu’à perdre peu à peu toute trace de la jeune femme qu’elle était.

When my CEO wife, Nina Wynn, learned I voluntarily handed a multimillion-dollar project to her favorite assistant, Zach Channing, she thought her three-month cold treatment finally worked. Beaming, she suddenly suggested we fly to Ivesland for our long-delayed honeymoon. When Zach found out, he became jealous and threatened to quit. Panicked, she spent three days and nights comforting him, then canceled our honeymoon again with the excuse of a business trip, giving him my ticket instead. Later, she casually explained to me, "Romance is trivial. Work comes first. As the boss, I have to prioritize. You’re my husband; you should understand." I looked at Zach’s latest social post, which was a photo of the two of them leaning intimately with their hands forming a heart, and said nothing. I only nod. Thinking I’d become more thoughtful and obedient, she was pleased. She even promised to make it up to me with a more romantic honeymoon when they got back home. However, unbeknownst to her, I’d already resigned. The divorce papers were already signed, and there was no future for us ever again.

“Nate, don't you dare start with that nonsense too. I told you already, I don't care about those ridiculous traditions." Marcel responded irritably as she hopped into the copilot seat of her best friend's car, anxious to get as far away as possible from her home. “Hey, I've known you since you were four, so don't try and act all brave and mature. Tell me the truth, you're afraid aren't you?” “Humph! What's there to be scared of?...” “That Mike's ghost might come back to haunt you." The boy interrupted, carelessly blurting out his analysis, adding…“I just don't get it; everyone else knows his death wasn't your fault…” “I know it wasn't!” “Then why won't you pray for his safe journey into the afterlife? What if his soul is damn to roam the earth, wreaking havoc among the living or even disrupting the balance between the two worlds?” “Ahh! Don't be childish. There is no such thing as the afterlife; parents just use these pathetic excuses to trick their children into believing that our loved ones are better off. If that was the case, why don't we all join them… oh yeah, that's right, we can't commit suicide otherwise we'll go straight to hell. Grow up Nate! The spirit dies with the body.” Follow the journey of a young woman as she tries to keep her sanity when the world around her was quickly crumbling after one faithful night of honoring the dead. Will she be able to save the life of those closest to her? or will her soul be bound to an eternity of madness?
