    Chapter 1060


    As chills traveled down her spine, Esme stared at those things that were on the window.


    It was a pale face with a green glow, and it was floating on the curtain with its eyes bright. Suddenly,


    there was a bang. It sounded like something had fallen from the outside.


    Esme jumped off her bed in horror and switched on the light in the room.


    Bright white light instantly flooded into the room, and the face on the curtain disappeared.


    She had just calmed down when the window suddenly opened, and the curtains were pulled by the


    wind.


    “Ah! Ah!” She screamed continuously. She wanted to close the window, but she had just taken the first


    step…


    When a terrifying voice came from outside.


    “Give my life back to me, my daughter…”


    “It’s not me! Not me!” Esme screamed. “It’s not me!”


    “Britney! Britney, are you alright?” The banging of the door and the sound from the outside mixed


    together, terrifying her even more.


    Mrs. Thomas had no choice but to use a duplicate key to open the door and she ran in together with


    her husband.


    “Britney!” The two of them ran toward Esme, wanting to hug her. But all they did was make her scream


    even more.


    “Go away! Go away! It has nothing to do with me! It’s not me!”


    “Britney, what’s going on?” Mrs. Thomas held Esme’s hand tightly.


    Mr. Thomas looked at the opened window and the curtains that were drifting in the wind. He quickly


    went over and closed the window tight.


    He mumbled, “Why did you leave the window open while sleeping? You’ll catch a cold because of the


    cold weather. Tomorrow is your wedding. What if something eviles in from the outside?”


    “Stop being so ridiculous!” Mrs. Thomas gave him a stare. “Can’t you see how scared she is? Why are


    you still talking about things like that?”


    Mr. Thomas simply said, “I’m just worried about her, alright?”


    Outside the door, Barbara was snickering in silence as she had her back by the doorframe.


    Esme had already calmed down and she looked at her viciously.


    “What are youughing about?!” Mr. Thomas said angrily.


    Even Mrs. Thomas couldn’t help scolding her. “Barbara, your sister’s in shock. Why are you smiling like


    that?”


    “I’m just smiling. She can’t have a good night’s sleep after doing so many sinful things,”


    Barbara said, full of smiles. She showed her no mercy when she continued saying, “Look at how


    scared you are. Is the ghost of someone you killed here for you?”


    “Of course not!” Esme said angrily as she gritted her teeth. She was already dead! Why wouldn’t she


    leave her alone even in her dreams?


    She became her parents’ pride after going to all sorts of tuition sses since she was little.


    She didn’t owe them anything, right?


    She simply made the necessary choices. Their sacrifices in exchange for her good life!


    Why were they torturing her like this?!


    “Then, what are you afraid of?” Barbara sneered before leaving.


    “How can you be so cold-hearted?! She’s your sister! If you’re going to show such cold- heartedness to


    your sister, you’ll be judged for it eventually!” Mr. Thomas yelled out in anger.


    Barbara paused and said, “You’re going to regret your own blindness.”


    “How dare you!” Mr. Thomas raised his fist.


    When Mrs. Thomas saw it, she quickly pulled him back.


    “What are you doing? Barbara probably said that because of her stress from her divorce.”


    Mr. Thomas broke free and said, “It’s all your fault for not being an example to them when they were


    little!”


    After hearing everything, Esme was no longer afraid. Instead, she found the whole situationughable.


    She pulled her hand out from Mrs. Thomas’s grasp and said, “It’s fine. I was just having a nightmare.”


    “What kind of nightmare?” Mr. Thomas asked curiously.


    Mrs. Thomas then shot back, “You still want to ask her about it? Aren’t you worried that she’ll get


    scared again?”


    Mr. Thomas simply argued back, “I care about her!”


    Esme then said, “I want to rest now.” If they continued like that, she would die from their incessant


    bickering after surviving that scare!


    She had seen her parents fight since she was little. Now seeing Mr. and Mrs. Thomas acting the same,


    she grew even more disgusted!


    She wished that she could p them both!Content held by N?velDrama.Org.
