    “Ah-Don’te over! Don’te over!”


    All the lights in the room were turned on.


    Annie huddled up in Ciara’s arms. Ciara patted her gently on the back, heaving a sigh.


    “Silly girl, it’s nothing serious. Look carefully. That’s just the curtain. You didn’t close the window when sleeping, so the wind has blown the sheer curtain. The hands you mentioned were just the sheer curtain.”


    As Ciara spoke, she asked Annie to take a look herself.


    Annie looked over carefully for a while, only to find that the ghost that she mistook was truly the sheer curtain.


    She breathed a deep sigh of relief.


    “Did I really have an illusion?”All content is ? N0velDrama.Org.


    “You must be quite stressful recently.”


    In fact, Ciare felt quite speechless when she saw how Annie was frightened by a curtain at the midnight and woke up everyone in the house.


    However, looking at Annie’s’s pale face, she didn’t have the heart to me her.


    She patted Annie on her hand. “All right. Stop thinking too much. Nothing is there. Go back to sleep.”


    Then, Ciara left with a group of people.


    Annie was standing motionlessly. Her lips parted, but she couldn’t utter any word.


    Helen nce at her to calm her down and left.


    In the corridor, Ciara suddenly paused. She asked Helen, “Has Annie been contacting people from Eqitin? How is it going?”


    Helen answered respectfully, “The test has been done. They haven’t given us the response yet, but that thing has been confirmed as real. I’m sure there will be the feedback soon.”


    Ciara frowned, obviously unhappy about it.


    Hurriedly, Helen continued, “After all, she’s been missing over twenty years. It’s normal for them to be cautious. That’s a super-rich and powerful family. If they have confirmed that Annie was their child, they wouldn’t ignore her.”


    Ciara snorted loudly.


    “This matter is relevant to the whole Gil family. I can’t let anything go wrong. Annie’s future and the future of our family both rely on it. You better be more careful.”


    Helen answered immediately, “I know, Mom.”


    Ciara didn’t speak anything, walking away with the group of people.


    Helen gazed in the direction where Ciara had gone, exhaling gently.


    Jaden walked up from the back and sneered.


    “It’s me who managed to marry that Hawkins woman so that our Gil family could be rich and powerful now. But what does she do? She wants to give such a huge family and business to that brat. She doesn’t care about me at all. How despicable!”


    Helen curled up her lips slightly.


    “What’s so important about the Gil family?” She looked down slightly, curling up her lips into a scheming smile.


    “If this matter seeded truly, our Annie would be a rich and powerful girl. By then, not to mention the Gil family, even the Kaur family and the Anderson family would kneel to us and tter us. Jaden, you must have a long-term vision. If you always care about the small profits in front of you, you wouldn’t have a good ending.”


    Jaden listened to her, and his eyes lit up.


    “I agree with you. We must make this matter sessful. No ident is allowed.”


    When they walked back to their bedroom, enormously proud of their sess, Helen


    suddenly paused her pace.


    “What’s this?”


    On the nightstand, there was a white delicate gift box, on which there was a bowknot made from a pink ribbon. Obviously, someone deliberately put it there.


    “Jaden, is it you?” asked Helen delightfully.


    She thought that it was a gift from her husband, who wanted to give her a surprise.


    However, Jaden frowned.


    “No, it’s not.”


    As he spoke, he looked at Helen in confusion.


    Thetter’s expression changed.


    “Why are you looking at me? You and I were the only ones in this room. Neither of us put it here. Would there be a ghost?”


    As soon as she finished her words, they both felt a chill running down their spine.


    Their expressions slightly changed, and they started feeling creepy for no reason. In the end, Jaden coughed.


    “All right. Open it and check what’s in there. Then we may know who has done it. Don’t just think too much.”


    Helen agreed. She walked over and opened the gift box.


    There wasn’t any valuable gift in the box. Besides a piece of metal with worn paint, there was a note.


    With a frown, Helen picked up the note.


    The next second, her expression changed dramatically.


    “Ah-” she let out a short exim.


    Taking a step back, she violently tossed the note onto the bed.


    “What’s wrong? What’s on the note?”


    Jaden picked it up curiously to read. When he saw the letters on it, his expression dramatically changed as well.


    On the sky-blue note, there were letters with pretty handwriting  I’m back!


    “It’s her. She came back. Her ghost hase to use for revenge!”


    Helen was in a panic. Jaden looked solemn. He fiercely rubbed the note into his hand. Then his gaze fell on the piece of aluminum in the box.


    It was a piece of aluminum whose paint had been scratched off after severe friction. Even they didn’t know too much about vehicles, they could easily see that it should be from a certain vehicle.


    “I don’t believe it! Damned ghost! Damned spirit! I’m not afraid of living humans. Why should I fear the dead?”


    Upon hearing it, Helen also calmed down a little.


    “But… but why did these things appear?”


    “Humph! Someone must have put it here intentionally to scare us!”


    As she spoke, he picked up the thing from the box, walking out of the room.


    Right then, another sharp and miserable exim was heard from a corner of the corridor.


    It was from Annie’s room again.


    Their expressions changed, and walked towards


    her room together.


    Before reaching the door, they saw Annie run out of the room in a panic. This time, she was trembling all over and her face was covered with tears.


    As soon as seeing Helen and Jaden, she pounced at them as if she had seen the life-saving straw.


    “Mom!”


    Helen immediately hugged her.


    Annie said while weeping, “Mom, I heard that woman’s voice again. It’s so horrible. This time it’s real. It’s not my illusion. She has trulye back!”


    If it were earlier, Helen might not believer her again.


    However, after experiencing such strange things, she believed what Annie said naturally.


    “Don’t be afraid. Let’s go back to check.”


    “But…”


    Annie was still scared. Jaden snapped, “What are you afraid of? If there was a ghost in your room, with so many people here, would it eat you alive? Follow me.”


    As he spoke, he walked into her room in the lead.


    The room looked as normal as usual.


    The light or the furniture was exactly the same as that when they came out.


    Nothing was abnormal except that the bed was messier because of Annie’s sudden leave.


    Looking annoyed, Jaden walked to the French window and checked the curtain again carefully.
