She silently got up and casually dressed, wearing her slippers, before going out to see what was happening. Renee came down to see a man in a white suit directing four to five gangsters holding steel pipes and smashing the furniture and appliances in the hall.

�They say this villa is haunted, and the surrounding people have left out of fear! Our boss doesn�t believe in those things. We�re trashing this place as much as we want today, boys! We�re eliminating evil for the sake of the public!�

The man in the suit didn�t notice Renee standing on the stairs as he spoke to the gangsters arrogantly. These rascals had accepted payment for a job, so they naturally didn�t hold back, smashing everything they could. Soon, the entire villa looked like it had just survived a hurricane.

�Who are you people, and what are you doing?!� Margaret shouted. She had returned with a basket full of groceries and was appalled to see the scene before her. Her shock soon fueled her with anger, and she screamed.

�The Everheart residence isn�t somewhere you rascals can do as you please! Get out of here, or face my wrath!�

When the man in the white suit saw Margaret, he froze and turned pale with fright before spluttering incredulously, �l�it�s you! T -that fierce old lady�! Didn�t I� bury you alive?! How are you still alive? A�are� Are you a g�ghost?!�

�Oh? So it�s you! A lackey of the Sunders�, hmm? Seems our paths inevitably cross again!�

Hatred filled Margaret�s face as she stared at the man who had almost driven her to her death. She lunged at him like she was completely deranged.

�That�s right! I�m a ghost, and I�m here for your life!�

�N�no! D�don�t come near me! Get away!�

The man in the white suit screamed in fear and backed away on trembling legs.

�T�the person who wanted you dead was Jeremy Sunder! I was only following his orders! If you want to claim a life, go after it! Not me!�

The white suit man covered his head with both hands as he stammered and begged for mercy.

�I won�t let any of you off! Not you, Jeremy, or anyone else who harmed the Everheart family!�

Margaret hissed as she tightened her grip around the man�s neck.

�S�spare� me! Please�!�

The man�s pants had a damp patch at his crotch, indicating he had wet himself in fear. But soon, he realized that something was wrong. Margaret�s hands were warm around his neck, but� ghosts didn�t have physical bodies or body heat, did she?

�Y�you�re not a ghost�? You�re not dead!�

At the realization, the man became enraged and yelled at the gangsters. �What the hell are you doing? You didn�t finish her off back then, so you better get rid of her today!�

�Let�s see who dares touch her. hmm?� Renee spoke from where she was on top of the stairs. She casually flexed her fingers. ready to unleash a killing spree. JrNovels.com
