Chapter 2623
Must this woman drink?
Leah paused and slowly said, “That was just an accident. I’ll be careful this time.”
She then looked at him. “Are you alone?”
“Well, do you see anyone else? Oh, you’re sitting on my friend,” he casually said.
Leah looked at her seat. “Sitting on your friend?”
Morrison poured a glass for himself, smiled, and considered scaring her. “Yes, do you want to know more about it? But it’s best that you don’t know. You might not be able to sleep tonight.”
Leah picked up her mojito and took a drink. “I’m even more curious now.”
Morrison saw that she wasn’t tricked, so he clicked his tongue. “You’re so daring. Let me tell you then. My friend jumped off a building not too long ago and died terribly. Her head split open. You’re sitting on her, and she’s not happy about it at all, so be careful tonight. She might stand next to your bed, and you’ll be in trouble.”
He thought that would scare her away, but Leah laughed instead. “You’re telling me a horror story, huh?” Morrison didn’t know what to say.
She placed down the glass. “Why did your friend jump? Life is short, and we’re going to die anyway. So, why did she want to end it early?”
Morrison slapped his forehead. She believed him and wasn’t even scared.
He poured more wine. “Are you not scared at all?”
“Why should I be scared?”
Leah looked at him. “I heard a lot of horror stories ten years ago, and I was afraid then, but then years later, I don’t feel the same anymore. Dead people aren’t scarier than living ones.”
Morrison laughed dryly. “Oh, I thought you were one of the silly girls. I guess you have some brains too.” “Why would I not have brains?”
