Chapter 55 -55: Doing Her a Favor
“…I shouldn’t have hinted at Micah to cause trouble for you just because we share the same name…I initially just wanted to make a joke out of you, but I didn’t expect Micah would actually say he liked you…”
“He used to always chase after me, and then suddenly he liked you. I just couldn’t accept it.”
“When I invited you to the Heavenly Platform that day, I didn’t plan on doing anything to you. I just knew you were pregnant and wanted to scare you…I really didn’t know how you suddenly had a miscarriage…”
“It really wasn’t me who killed you, boo hoo boo…”
Isolde Garrison initially tried to paint her actions in a better light, but as she spoke, she noticed the chilling feeling on her body inexplicably returned.
However, after revealing her true intentions, the cold feeling gradually subsided.
Realizing that her words would go unheard by others, she decided to open up fully to Delilah Woods, the evil ghost, confessing all her thoughts and dark intentions to put her at ease.
Scarlett Jennings stood beside her, listening expressionlessly.
Although Scarlett had witnessed parts of Isolde’s conversation with Delilah in the Mirage Realm and felt the emotions from the vengeful infant and a part of Delilah’s soul, she couldn’t uncover the truth behind those emotions.
After hearing Isolde’s “confession,” Scarlett wasn’t even surprised.
Targeting an innocent girl just because of a shared name was indeed something Isolde would do.
Once Isolde had said all she could, Scarlett raised her hand, and a small paper lantern magically flew back into her palm, which she then stored in a small bottle.
Watching Scarlett’s actions, Isolde’s eyes still held some resentment. “This means Delilah’s ghost won’t come looking for me ever again, right?”
Scarlett glanced at her, replying seriously yet dismissively, “Hmm, I promise.”
After all, Delilah hadn’t died. Even without today’s events, Delilah’s “ghost” couldn’t have come after her again.
“You also need to ensure I won’t keep having this bad luck!”
Though she hadn’t thought much of it following the earlier car accident, first her legs were fractured in the crash, then her bed inexplicably broke, twisting her waist, not to mention the countless cramps in her neck and choking episodes while eating and drinking during this time.
Even as confused as Isolde was, she knew she had somehow attracted misfortune.
Perhaps it was Delilah’s ghost causing it too!
Scarlett replied, “I can’t guarantee that, because your current misfortune stems from the calamities in your Fate Chart, which have nothing to do with Delilah.”
If there were any connection, it was merely the grievance from the vengeful infant clinging to her, making her more susceptible to calamities.
Isolde’s face suddenly changed when Scarlett mentioned her Fate Chart, immediately raising her voice, “Even if it is a Fate Chart issue, you have to solve it! Don’t forget you took my money!”
Although the five million wasn’t transferred by her personally.
That didn’t stop Isolde from feeling justified in her demands.
The Garrison Family outside heard the noise and re-entered, with Isolde crying and complaining that Scarlett took the money but refused to help.
Emma White was the first to protest,
“You took five million and think dealing with a single evil ghost is enough?! No way! You must also address Isolde’s Fate Chart problems, as you had previously promised. Are you planning to deny it after taking the bracelet?!”
Timothy Garrison’s face was grim, as if he would not let Scarlett leave if she dared to say she wouldn’t address the issue.
Scarlett merely smirked at this,
“You Garrison Family have plotted for eighteen years without success. Now you think spending five million plus a bracelet will solve everything at once. How could things be so easy?
It’s not that I can’t do it, even if I could, why should I help her?”
“She’s your sister!”
Josiah Garrison said solemnly, still trying to appeal to her with sibling ties.
And as far as she knew, both Isolde and Emma had long discarded those items. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
