The Fortune-Telling Heiress novel Chapter 411

It was neither a haunting nor a climate issue.

"Do you want to know the reason?" asked Madison.

"I do!" replied Joshua.

"You'll know once you return," she said mysteriously.

He didn't get it, but he walked back toward the courtyard nevertheless. An old woman was sitting in a rocking chair under the begonia tree, rocking gently back and forth. There was a kind and gentle smile on her face.

She didn't even open her eyes when she heard the noise Joshua was making. She simply said, "You're back, Josh!"

Joshua hummed in acknowledgment.

He walked over to Caroline and asked in concern, "How are you feeling today, Grandma? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"

"Not at all. I feel very well," she replied.

"Have you taken your medicine? The doctor told you to take your medicine on time."

Before Caroline could speak, an unfamiliar childish voice suddenly rang out.

"She doesn't need to take her medicine."

Startled, Joshua quickly looked around but didn't see anything.

He immediately clutched his phone as if he were holding a weapon. "M-Ms. Locke! D-D-Did you hear that, Ms. Locke? T-That voice… wasn't my imagination, right?"

"I heard it!" Madison replied.

The viewers typed their own replies in the live chat.

"I heard it too. That scared me."

"Is it a prank? There might be a kid hiding behind the courtyard wall."

"It has to be!"

"Damn it, I almost wet myself!"

Joshua asked nervously, "Are you sure we're not being haunted, Ms. Locke?"

"What are you saying?" asked Caroline. "What's haunted? Who's Ms. Locke?"

That childish voice rang out again. "Oops, it seems he can hear me now."

Joshua was scared stiff, but he still stood bravely in front of Caroline.
