Chapter 506 Followed by an Evil Spirit
Shirley returned to the Crimson Pawnshop and thoroughly destroyed the video Cordell had given her
before going to sleep, her mind weighed down with worries.
She had a restless sleep, filled with repetitive dreams.
In the dreams, Amelie, with disheveled hair, crawled out of the sea, her limbs broken, and her bones
clearly visible. Her face was covered in blood, and she was laughing sinisterly at Shirley.
"Hahaha, Shirley, your good days are over. I couldn't defeat you in life, but in death, I will become a
vengeful ghost and drag you down to hell with me!"
The bloodied face got closer and closer, as if it were about to cover Shirley's own face. The suffocating
feeling was unbearable, and she flailed her arms wildly, shouting, ' Don't come any closer!"
"Ms. Wilson, Ms. Wilson, wake up! It's morning!"
May sat by the bed, looking worriedly at Shirley and trying to wake her up.
"Ah!"
Shirley felt like someone pulled her out as she was stuck in the vortex. She suddenly opened her eyes,
her heart pounding violently.
"Ms. Wilson, your face is so pale. Did you have a nightmare?"
"Yes."
Shirley nodded, gasping for breath.
The nightmare had been too vivid, with Amelie's bloodied face pressed against her own, the suffocating
feeling like drowning, too desperate to bear.
"Don't be afraid, it's over now that you're awake..."
May stroked Shirley's back, her eyes filled with sympathy. "Ms. Wilson must have been under too much
pressure lately, allowing the evil spirits to invade, causing you to have such chaotic dreams. Later, I'll
make you a medicine sachet to carry with you. It'll help kill germs and ward off evil spirits so you won't
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthave these dreams again."
"Thank you, May."
Shirley let out a worried sigh and softly asked, 'May, do you think there really are evil spirits in this
world?"
"Well, that's hard to say."
May's expression was solemn, and she fell into deep memories. 'I've been learning medicine with my
grandfather since I was a child, and I've seen a lot of strange and bizarre things. The more advanced
one's medical skills, the more they believe in these things. Because, from a medical perspective, life
and death can sometimes be really mysterious, and it's hard to explain..."
"Evil spirits may exist in another dimension, one that we cannot see or touch. Or they may be a kind of
energy or magnetic field. When their energy is too strong or their magnetic field is too powerful, they
can affect our dimension."
"For example, Ms. Wilson, you never used to have nightmares, but you suddenly had a very strange
one. It might be due to the influence of some bad energy, and you should take it seriously."
Listening to May's seemingly scientific yet unscientific explanation, Shirley felt a chill run down her
spine and her heart shuddered.
She swallowed her saliva carefully and said, "So, do you mean that I've been followed by some evil
spirits with heavy resentment and strong energy?"
"Phooey, phooey, phooey! We shouldn't talk nonsense about such things. Ms. Wilson, you are kind to
others, and you haven't provoked anyone or had any disputes with them. You won't come across these
filthy things!"
May was very superstitious about these matters. She recited a long string of old sayings for warding off
disasters and exorcising evil spirits, and then busied herself with preparing a medicine sachet for
Shirley.
Shirley looked at herself in the mirror by the bed, her face seemed quite pale, and she clenched her
fingers silently. Amelie, if you really have followed me, I advise you to reincarnate as soon as possible.
You couldn't beat me when you were alive, and you won't be able to beat me after your death!
Shirley finished breakfast, looked at the time, and decided it was getting late, so she got up to leave.
"Take your time eating; I have to go out for a bit."
She said to Larry, May, and Ben and Ally, who were still eating.
"Where are you going so early?"
Larry, who had been browsing the newspaper, put it down and looked at her sharply.
’I'm just... going to the company to handle some things. A new business is about to start, and I've been
on vacation for so long that I should get back to work.”
"You're my sister, and I can support you. What's the big deal if you take a vacation for the rest of your
life? It's dangerous out there lately, so I think it's better for you to rest a bit longer before going out."
At this moment, he was the head of the Wilson family, embodying the old saying "an elder brother is
like a father." He wished he could protect Shirley in a greenhouse 24 hours a day.
After all, the situation in Seatie City was now volatile, and countless people wanted to take revenge on
him. He was very worried that his sister would be implicated.
"Don't worry about it! Your sister isn't a pushover. If anyone dares to harm me, they must be tired of
living!"
Shirley waved her hand casually, bent down to kiss Ben and Ally, and said, "You two little ones, be
good and stay with Uncle Larry and May. I will be back soon."
"Okay, Mommy, be careful on the way and have a safe trip."
The two little ones sweetly kissed Shirley back, not worried at all about their mommy encountering
danger.
They had witnessed mommy's incredible abilities many times, and Uncle Larry had never seen
anything like it. They were certain that she could handle anything!
"Hey, Ms. Wilson, wait a moment!"
May got up and caught up with Shirley, who had already walked to the door. "Hang this medicine
sachet on your body. I always feel that the nightmare you had is a bad omen. Having some protection
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmis better than nothing."
"Don't worry, May. I am afraid of no one. I'll just slay those evil spirits if I meet them!"
After hanging the sachet, Shirley left confidently.
However, the place she was going to was not her company but a play shooting site.
Last night, when she returned from the hospital, she had obtained Alice's contact information through
some special means.
Alice was pleasantly surprised when she heard her name and happily agreed to meet.
Coincidentally, the filming location was Saipan, the very place where she and Amelie had their conflict.
"This is so bizarre!"
Shirley found a place to park her car, looked at the familiar scenery, swallowed hard, and couldn't help
but feel a bad premonition.
"Ms. Wilson, Alice is still filming. I am her agent, and I'll take you to the rest area to wait for a while,
okay?"
Alice's agent greeted Shirley with a smile plastered on his face, a little too enthusiastically.
"It's fine, let her finish her work first, I'm not in a hurry."
Shirley was very polite, for the other was also on her best behavior.
The rest area was on a flat, wind-protected area of Saipan, where they could clearly see Alice's filming
scene.
"Ms. Wilson, have some fruit."
The agent handed Shirley some fruit snacks and began to talk non-stop. "You don't know how much
I've admired you. When Mr. Guerra asked me to take care of a newcomer, I was actually very reluctant.
At that time, I was ready to retire, and the artists I took care of were all top-notch stars like Skyler and
Izabella. But when I saw Alice, I immediately changed my mind... Do you know why?"
"Uh, why?"
Shirley asked awkwardly.
Although she wasn't socially phobic, she was still quite fearful of such a talkative person.
