The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 1011

Chapter 1011: Chapter 1011: Another Glimpse

Scarlett Jennings stood among the crowd at the door, discreetly withdrawing her hand that had just cast three Shadow Talismans.

Samuel Chalmers noticed her little gesture, his expression unchanged, casually pulling her hand over and holding it.

The two stood outside the crowd, both appearing indifferent to the situation as mere onlookers.

But inside the shop, the Atkins family trio was nearly scared to the point of wetting themselves.

Who could have imagined that they would actually see a ghost in broad daylight?

When they came over before, everything inside the shop was perfectly normal!

David Atkins looked at Meliora Torres and the man beside her with terror, his mouth trembling so much he could hardly speak.

Meliora was utterly bewildered and inexplicably tense, but kept up a hard front, saying,

"I have surveillance in my shop, don’t think you can scam me here! Whether you want to reconcile or to target my shop is impossible, now get out!"

David still wanted to say something, but just then, the ghost standing beside Meliora spoke up, his words as cold as the ice shards of a northern winter,

"Leave, or die."

As if to complement the ghost’s words, the ghost on Lucius Atkins’s back slowly raised his hand, pretending to choke Lucius’s neck.

Already frightened enough, Lucius now felt a cold hand wrapping around his neck, and finally couldn’t hold it, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.

The ghost on Lucius’s back seemed to find this somewhat boring, and turned to look at David, his gaze dark and ominous,

"He’s no fun, then you can come play with me."

With that, it floated straight towards David and the old lady at the door.

David, upon seeing this surreal scene, finally couldn’t hold it anymore.

Ignoring the familiarity of the male ghost beside Meliora, not caring about his fainted brother and his petrified mother, he screamed in horror, dragging his crippled leg, hobbling and shoving through the crowd towards the exit, while shouting,

"Don’t come over! Ghosts... there are ghosts! Don’t come over, I was wrong, ahhhh..."

The crowd originally there to watch was feeling a bit off when they saw the Atkins family with one fainted, one dumbstruck, and one running away.

Earlier, the youngest son of the Atkins family seemed to be slapping himself and kicking his own brother, how couldn’t things be off?

All they wanted was to spectate, not to encounter anything unclean.

So soon, the crowd dispersed too.

Meliora originally didn’t understand what was happening, but hearing David screaming about ghosts seemed to have understood something.

She got people to drag the two Atkins family members away before cautiously looking at the empty little shop, probing, her voice hoarse,

"Brother... is it you?"

Following her voice, a ray of light flew in through the door.

Then, before Meliora’s eyes, things seemed to change—a blink later, she saw a figure slowly appearing before her.

Her pupils first dilated, and then seeing clearly who it was, her eyes instantly reddened.

There was no fear, only an overwhelming sense of longing and grievance,

"Brother..."

Though she always believed her brother’s soul was near, she never truly saw him, mostly using this belief to comfort herself.

Until now, finally seeing her brother, lost for half a lifetime, Meliora’s frailty, previously concealed from the Atkins family’s oppression, now utterly collapsed,

"Brother!"

Crying she lunged at Jeffrey Torres.

But unexpectedly, her body went right through his soul, as if hitting smoke.

Just like that, she passed through him, watching his soul dissipate like smoke and regroup again, she clearly realized her brother was truly dead.

And had been dead for many years.

Tears fell relentlessly, and facing Jeffrey’s soul, Meliora cried uncontrollably.
