Jaxon began to frequent churches. Since I lingered around him, I could hear all his concerns.“Father, can you please tell me if I’m being haunted by a spirit?” He made arrangements for an exorcism to set his mind at ease. In addition, he visited various fortune tellers and priests. He wanted to try everything due to his guilt.At the same time, he expedited his preparations to travel. He felt that everything was going smoothly. He just wanted to get rid of me and go abroad safely. My death could then easily be written off. He even started faking evidence of me killing myself due to postpartum depression. However, I was still too timid to act.Jaxon would sit in the nursery absent-mindedly every night. Occasionally, he would also mumble to himself.“You killed yourself because you were mentally weak. Your child lost her mother at such a young age. How could you be so selfish? You can’t blame me since you were the one with issues. I only punished you a little. It wasn’t anything
The cops surrounded the manor with police tape and successfully found Jaxon’s current residence.They stopped the priests and spoke sternly. “You’re guilty of a very serious crime. It’s useless getting the priests now.”They took him away in handcuffs, and he broke into tears. Yet, he kept defending himself without realizing his mistakes.“It has nothing to do with me. She killed herself because of postpartum depression. I don’t know what happened. Why are you arresting me?”The cops brought Jaxon to the crime scene for identification purposes. However, he continued to argue in his defense. “I’m innocent!” He was going to be charged with assault, illegal imprisonment, and my death. But he had no idea that the cops had confirmed his involvement through the surveillance footage.The surveillance camera had recorded everything. I had installed it while I was pregnant so that I could better monitor my baby later. Before I could inform Jaxon about it, he punished me and got me killed
“Jax, the baby’s been rather noisy lately. I can’t sleep well every night. It’s exhausting.” Pouting, Rebecca Garcia leaned into Jaxon Lawson’s arms and muttered.“I’m jealous of Ria. She doesn’t have to do a thing after giving birth. I’m the one left with all the tiring work. I couldn’t even keep my baby, but I need to take care of hers instead.”Rebecca sobbed as she brought up a seemingly sad incident.Jaxon felt quite sorry for her when he saw her tears.“Becky, I was being inconsiderate. I’ll take the baby away now. I just wanted to ease the pain of losing your child. I never thought that taking care of a baby would be this troublesome. It’s my fault, and I’m sorry.”Then, he immediately called his assistant over.“Arla’s been quiet these past few days. Is she plotting something heinous? It’s just a small punishment. She doesn’t have to cause a scene. Get her here to take care of the baby! She’s been having a great time, with nothing to do lately, and Becky has to suffer for
“Jax, what’s taking Ria so long? Is she mad at me? Should I apologize to her?” Rebecca pouted and said coquettishly. “She’s your wife after all. I can’t compare to her…” Jaxon seemed to be amused as he feigned anger. “Really? I’ll go to her, then.” Rebecca immediately started sobbing.“There, there. I was teasing you. You’re the most important person to me. Arla should consider herself blessed to be with a man like me. She can’t be mad. Plus, she should be the one apologizing to you. If she hadn’t recommended prenatal yoga to you, you wouldn’t have…”My spirit started trembling when I heard that. I never recommended prenatal yoga to Rebecca.I had bumped into her after coming home one day. But I never had my guard up around her since she was Jaxon’s childhood friend. Besides, she had been pregnant, just like me. She praised me for my glowing face and well-maintained figure. “You flatter me. Maybe I exercise a lot, so that’s how I keep my shape,” I responded civilly.She smi
“What’s taking her so long? Is she a celebrity? Is it that hard to get her here?” Jaxon called his assistant in anger.“Mr. Lawson… I don’t see Mrs. Lawson in the house. I’ve searched everywhere. But the house smells really bad. The stench seems to be… coming from the basement. It’s locked, so I can’t go in there!”Hearing that, Jaxon’s face fell. Something seemed to dawn on him all of a sudden, and he sounded terrified.“Okay, leave it. I’m sure she sneaked out again to drive me mad. Go back to the company. Don’t forget to lock the house!”After the call ended, he quickly stood up. When Rebecca saw how anxious he was, she muttered, “Did she make a scene? I’m so jealous of her. She can always throw a tantrum, but I can’t. I have to be careful in everything I do…”Jaxon slowed down and spoke softly. “Becky, don’t say that about yourself. You always have the freedom to be yourself with me. But that woman’s caused me some trouble. I need to head home to handle it. Once I settle the i
“What’s going on, Arla? What trick are you trying to pull?” Jaxon looked at my corpse and automatically blamed me.“Is this your idea of revenge? Are you trying to make me feel guilty by killing yourself? How dare you play such a trick?! You’re so childish and mentally weak! It’s preposterous! You killed yourself just because we took care of your baby for a few days! How could you do this?!”While I looked at his terror-stricken and pale face, I grimly said, “How can a dead person play tricks?” He suddenly shuddered and held the back of his neck in fear. “Who is it?! Who’s playing tricks?!”I had never seen him this frightened, and it filled me with joy. I sneered and flew up behind him. “A spirit’s trying to play tricks on you, my dear Jaxon,” I added.Consequently, he shrieked and scrambled to run away. But despite his best attempts to stand up, his weak legs would not cooperate. He staggered and fell again. “I’m an atheist, so I’m not afraid of spirits. Get the hell away from
