Liora suggested, "Can we go to the playroom? I want to play with Legos."Sophia offered, "Can I carry you there?"Liora signaled to Evan, prompting him to put her down.Evan gently placed Liora on the floor, and she eagerly told Sophia, "Let's go!"Sophia smiled and held Liora's hand, saying, "Of course."In the playroom, Liora enthusiastically introduced her favorite toys to Sophia.Sophia listened patiently as Liora talked. When Liora was done talking, she asked, "Your name is Lia, right?"Liora beamed and replied, "Yes, I'm Liora Shenton."Sophia held Liora's hand and observed, "You have a fair complexion. Do you know how to draw?"Liora responded promptly. "Yes! What would you like to see me draw?"Liora grabbed a canvas as she spoke.Sophia pondered for a moment and then asked, "Hmm... Did you see anything fun or exciting in the past two days?"Liora shared, "Yes! I saw a beautiful woman today! She's beautiful but really strange." As she talked, she began to draw on th
Sophia's body was covered in goosebumps, and she felt a chilling presence in the air. It sent shivers down her spine.She noticed that the room's heating was turned on. This gave her a chance to look around and hand Liora a piece of paper."Lia, could you draw the beautiful lady now?" she asked.Liora glanced at the paper, then furrowed her brows. "I've already drawn her on the canvas, haven't I?""I'd like to see what she's doing now. Is that okay?" Sophia insisted.Liora let out a sigh and accepted the paper. "This is such a hassle...""Thank you, Lia."Liora peered ahead and said, "Stay still! This lady wants me to draw you! Do you want to strike a pose?"The woman in a patient's gown, floating before Liora, replied, "You're quite demanding, you little rascal.""I'm not a rascal. I'm Lia!" Liora retorted."Go ahead. No one will believe you even if you draw me," the woman said, floating up to sit on the windowsill.Liora shot her a disapproving look. "You talk so much!"S
Sophia told him straightforwardly that Liora could see ghosts!Evan looked at the drawings in his hand once more with a tense expression, muttering, "These people can't even help a child properly!"Evan crumpled the drawings in frustration and headed to the living room.As he entered through the backdoor, Liora's voice reached his ears.Liora asked, "What's a camellia? I know about lilies."I see. Why do you want it?"I don't understand what you're saying, but I can ask Tyler for money to get it for you."The graveyard? No, I won't go to that scary place!"Evan felt rooted to the spot after hearing Liora's words. He watched her talking to herself on the sofa with astonishment, and an ominous feeling crept over him. He recalled Sophia's warning.After a moment of contemplation, Evan walked toward Liora with a troubled expression.When the female ghost saw Evan approaching, she floated away from Liora.Liora noticed and said, "You're scaring her! She floated away…"Evan follo
"I am a foreigner, yet I believe in your ancestors' legacy, so why can't you, a native? Didn't you have an expert to check your office's energy flow? You should believe in this, too!"I can't explain everything, but if you take Lia to meet the gravekeeper once, you'll understand, right? If you don't do it, I'll come over now and take Lia there."I'm warning you, you'll regret it if something bad happens to Lia if you dare to stop me!"Evan couldn't risk his child's health.If Liora's fever continued like that, it would be disastrous.Evan was willing to compromise his beliefs for his daughter.Evan relented. "Fine. I'll take Lia there. But if the gravekeeper deceives us, you won't take her there again.""Naturally," Kenny agreed.Evan called for Reuben to take Liora and him to the graveyard.Liora's fever spiked again on the way.She slept in Evan's arms until they reached the graveyard.As Evan got out of the car carrying Liora, he spotted a black figure at the graveyard en
A wave of cold rushed through the room shortly after her voice faded.Reuben couldn't help but seek warmth. 'Is it because the door's open? How did it get so cold all of a sudden?' he wondered.Benjamin and Liora turned their attention to the door, where they saw a woman in a patient's gown. She hesitated to enter without Benjamin's permission.Benjamin granted her entry, saying, "Come in."The woman nodded and glided past Evan and Reuben to step inside. In astonishment, Liora asked, "How did you get here so quickly? Did you take a flight?"The woman teased, "You ask a lot of questions, rascal."Benjamin frowned. "Watch your words!"The woman fell silent.Benjamin turned to Liora. "Girl, ask her what she wants."Liora impulsively blurted out in a childish yet serious tone, "Tell me about your unfulfilled wish, phantom queen. I'll do my best to help you, but you can't keep lingering around me."'Phantom queen?' Reuben was puzzled and whispered to Evan, "What's a phantom quee
Evan furrowed his brow and questioned, looking at the item Benjamin handed him, "What's this?""It's a cow's tears. You don't believe the girl, right? You can apply this to your eyes. It'll work better than me explaining," Benjamin replied.Evan watched silently, hesitant to use something of unknown origin on his eyes.Reuben took the bottle of cow's tears from Benjamin. "Just put it on the eyes, right?"Benjamin nodded. "You don't need much. It's a precious and rare item.""Okay."Reuben opened the bottle, poured some onto his palm, and applied it to his eyes."Go outside," Benjamin reminded.Reuben followed the instructions, heading outside. As he was about to step out, he noticed a face at the door.It was the face of an elderly woman who appeared to be around 60 years old. She had a noticeable wound on her forehead, with blood seeping from it.Despite his courage, Reuben was startled by the sight and took a few steps back, accidentally bumping into Evan.Annoyed, Evan as
"Reuben witnessed something he shouldn't have. Benjamin mentioned that Lia's path won't be easy," Evan said.Caroline sighed. "I don't know exactly how tough it'll be, but Benjamin's words make me think Lia's future won't be a smooth one."Evan didn't add more, but he did share with Caroline what Benjamin had mentioned about Lia's frequent fever and her third eye opening.Caroline felt conflicted after hearing that. She remained silent for a moment before exhaling deeply. "All we can do now is support Lia.""Hmm, you're back?" Evan changed the subject."Yes. Kenny picked me up, and he's taking me to dinner.""Make sure the food is safe," Evan cautioned.Caroline immediately thought of Zeke when she heard that.She replied, "To be honest, barbecue isn't necessarily unhygienic, just heavily seasoned. You might want to give it a try."Evan furrowed his brow. "I remember you rarely eat things like that. Why the sudden change?""People's tastes can change," she said.After a shor
Caroline gently squeezed Paige's hand, signaling her to remain silent.She understood that Daniella had likely endured a lot of emotional distress, and she didn't want Paige to become the target of Daniella's anger.Paige retorted, "Why are you holding my hand? She deserves to be called out! Haven't you forgotten how she bullied you before?"Caroline quickly let go of Paige's hand.As they walked away, she asked, "Paige, why provoke her when you know what kind of person she is?"Paige was furious. "Why should I care? I can't stand her, and she's finally facing the consequences! She should be grateful she's still alive!" Caroline continued trying to persuade her, "Aren't you worried she might seek revenge? Even if you're not, think about the baby in your womb.""She can try if she dares!" Paige raised her voice a bit.Caroline sternly interrupted, "That's enough, Paige! Are we still going for the checkup?"Paige pouted. "I'm just trying to stand up for you!""I appreciate it,
