Chapter 49: Head Stuck
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The female ghost struggled for a long time but could not break free. She said helplessly, “I was a worker on your second uncle’s former construction site. My name is Jenny Hill. It’s karma for doing bad things…
Amelia was stunned. Second Uncle? When it came to Second Uncle, her small face instantly became serious. “What are you going to do to Second Uncle?”
The female ghost didn’t know why, but she didn’t want to say it at first, but her mouth seemed to be out of her control. She muttered, “Six years ago, your second aunt said that she would give me 20,000 dollars and asked me to put something in your second uncle’s tea. I did as she said. Then, as soon as I received the money, a piece of wood fell from the construction site and smashed me to death… The female ghost felt that she had been wronged. How unlucky was she to be smashed to death the moment she received the money?
Amelia was puzzled. Why did she put something in Second Uncle’s tea? Moreover, why was the female ghost smashed to death as soon as she received the money? Was it such a coincidence?
Elmer narrowed his eyes and flicked Amelia’s head. “Children should sleep early. Stop chatting.” With that, he stuffed the female ghost into the Soul Retrieving Gourd on her wrist. The red string emitted a weak red light and disappeared from Amelia’s wrist.
Amelia lay down and yawned before falling asleep.
‘l’hat night, some people slept soundly, while others could not sleep at all. Sarah lay on the bed and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. When she first gave birth to Emma, her mother could not control her mouth. When they were chatting, she accidentally told Dylan that they had conspired to drug Dylan back then. Dylan had said that he wanted a divorce, but how could she be willing? She had just given birth to Emma. It was impossible for her to get a divorce. If she got a divorce, all her efforts before would be in vain! Therefore, all these years, Sarah insisted that Dylan had heard wrongly and said that her mother loved to joke and spout nonsense.
However, Dylan still found George to investigate. Then, he found out that the construction worker who drugged him back then, Jenny Hill, had died, but there was something fishy about her death.
At the thought of this, Sarah became even more annoyed. Fortunately, Jenny
Hill had died cleanly. It had been so many years, and she couldn’t find anything even if she wanted to, unless Jenny Hill came back to life. However… how was that possible? Sarah didn’t want a divorce. Her feelings for Dylan were real, and she couldn’t bear to part with the two children. Moreover, she didn’t think there was anything wrong with herself. She could only blame Amelia’s arrival for destroying the balance of this family! Everything was clearly fine before, but Amelia became like this the moment she arrived. It was too annoying!
Sarah did not like Amelia very much. She even thought about whether she could chase Amelia out…
The next day, when Amelia woke up, it was already nine in the morning. She lay on the balcony sleepily and watched as Old Master Walton slowly watered the flowers downstairs.
“Grandpa, good morning! Amelia grabbed the railing and greeted Old Master Walton.
Old Master Walton looked up and smiled. “Good morning, Mia. Be good. Don’t poke your head out. It’s too dangerous. Come downstairs to eat.”
Amelia nodded. Just as she was about to retract her head from the railing, she realized that she could not! She was stuck in the railing!
Amelia: She moved left and right. Hmm… she still couldn’t pull it out. Helpless, she could only grab the railing and call out on the brink of tears, “Grandpa…
Old Master Walton was looking up at her. When he saw Amelia’s bitter expression, his heart tightened. “What’s wrong?
Amelia blinked innocently. ‘Grandpa, Mia seems to be stuck.”
Old Master Walton: ‘
When the uncles heard that Amelia’s head was stuck in the railing and could not be pulled out, they were stunned.
Harper pointed at Amelia and laughed rudely. As she laughed, she said, “So stupid! So stupid!”
Amelia couldn’t stand it anymore. She glared at Harper in exasperation. “Don’t laugh! You’re stupid! You’re the stupid one!”
Uncle Andrew pressed his fist against his lips and coughed lightly. He tried his best to pretend to be serious, but it was a pity that he could not hide the smile in his eyes. Although Mia was a little miserable and they were worried, it was really funny.
Only Old Madam Walton was really anxious and kept urging them. “What are you laughing at? You only know how to laugh. Hurry up and get Mia out!
Dylan said, “I’ll call 911 now and get the firefighters to come over.” Amelia reacted and quickly said, “No, Second Uncle, don’t trouble the firefighters..”
