Get you in my arms

Chapter 118 A Shot (Part Three)

A man laughed evilly. "It's okay. I'll control it. With a short shooting range, it can't hit the target."

Said a woman. She was born to be poor. Since she had failed to get a first-class prize by buying two hundred lotteries, she didn't have to worry about it.

So she closed her eyes obediently and let him continue.

After staying in Los Angeles for two days, they headed for Vancouver, Netherlands, Egypt.

Either the ghost was killed by a shot, or she was hiding somewhere to heal herself. Then the horrible shadow disappeared and ruined their honeymoon.

Two months later, they went back to Q City smoothly.

Hearing that they were back, Ellie was the first one to come to Bluewater Villa.

When Lucas went to the study to deal with the business, Sophia asked the maid to prepare afternoon tea and chatted with Ellie over tea.

"Honeymoon, isn't it wonderful?" Ellie's eyes were full of envy, hoping that one day she could spend their honeymoon around the world with John.

"It's not only fun, but also exciting. We have encountered the haunting ghosts." Sophia shook her head, looking mysterious.

"A ghost?" Ellie giggled, thinking that Sophia was joking.

"She is the female ghost who asks your cousin for money." Sophia told Ellie what happened to her in the first part of the honeymoon.

Ellie was frightened and kept rubbing her arms. She got goose bumps all over her body. She was planning to shoot a thriller. The topic was changed this time, and it was true.

"Wow! Such a familiar name!" Ellie thought for a while and said, "yes, I remember her. She is a good friend of Melody and she took to a villa to visit once by Melody."

"Who is Melody?" Confused, Sophia asked.

"Holy crap!" Realizing that she had said something wrong, Ellie slapped herself in the face.

"Stop nagging. I already told you such a secret." Sophia pursed her lips grumpily.

Ellie didn't know how to explain to her but sighed, "Melody was the girl who sat on a wheelchair at your wedding ceremony. She was the daughter of the housekeeper of Maud Villa. My grandpa and grandma, Jacob and Anna have been treating Melody as half daughter and let her go to the same noble school with my cousin."

"Really?" "What happened between them? Your brother and Lucas seem to be bad. "

Ellie took a sip of tea and said, "at that time, I was still young. I didn't know exactly what had happened between them. I only knew that my brother liked Melody, but Melody liked my cousin. The three of them were entangled."

"That's why your brother had a bad relationship with Lucas." "Then how did Melody become so moody?"

"She..." As Ellie was about to speak, a very attractive voice came from behind, "what are you talking about?"

Ellie hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand before replying, "Sophia is talking with me about your honeymoon. I'm going to turn it into a thriller."

"You mustn't take it lightly before her life is determined. You must send Mary and Janie with you wherever you go. Got it?"

"Ellie, how are you and John going when we weren't home these days?"

"We are fine. We went to the movies together yesterday." Ellie raised the corners of her mouth and deliberately threw a big smile, but there was a hint of disappointment quietly in her eyes. To be honest, John was always warm and cold to her. He would never call her actively, nor date with her actively. She always took the initiative in everything.

Taking a sip of black tea, Lucas added, "if he doesn't treat you well, you must tell me and let me teach him a lesson." This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"Don't worry. He is very kind to me." Ellie replied with a smile. She didn't want to worry him and let him see through her.

"You should be patient with John. He is a little bit stubborn. If he really falls in love with you, no one can change his mind."

Ellie nodded. She recalled how nervous he was in the hospital last time and how worried he was about Sophia. She hoped that the possibility would be growing.

********

On this side, Mr. Jack had already found out the information of Joyce's family and her previous address. Joyce didn't have any twin sisters. She had only one brother whose name was Kim. After the accident, her families went to Canada.

When the first rays of sunlight fell from the sky, she was taken to the southern mountain village, suburb of Q City by Lucas. He had planned to go there alone, but she kept pestering him, so he had to bring

her with him.

It was very quiet here. The tall forest was closely connected, like a long green wave. For a dozen miles, a dark and gloomy small mountain appeared. The mountain was very strange in its shape, and looked obscure from afar, just like strange water flowers stimulated by green waves.

The previous villa of Joyce was located at the foot of the mountain. It hadn't been sold, but had been abandoned.

When she got out of the car, a gust of cold wind blew from the top of the mountain, which made her flesh creep all over. Besides, it was silent and treacherous. The small sounds of water running and the wind rustling in the distance were all echoing in front of his ears, making her all the more terrifying.

It seemed that the villa had been abandoned for a long time. The stone pillars all over the garden had withered, and the weeds swallowed up the sound of footsteps.

Lucas used the tools he brought to open the door.

All the furniture in the room was covered with white cloth, which made the white wall, the white carpet and the white curtain look confused and gloomy.

Turning to look at him, Sophia continued, "what are we looking for here?"

"You'll know when you take a look at it." Lucas touched everywhere and then opened the white cloth on the cabinet. There was a family photo in it. "Is this Joyce?" she asked.

Lucas stared at the boy next to Joyce.

"She is exactly the same as in the painting. Is there really two people looking exactly the same?" she muttered to herself. She put the photo back. "I didn't expect this girl to be so pure and innocent that she would do something like that. Love makes people crazy, but even if she was expelled from school, she

wouldn't commit suicide. Life is so precious. Her family must have been sad to death so they emigrated."
