NovelStartNo sooner had Evan taken a few steps away from his last meeting, his phone buzzed in his pocket. It was Elijah. Whatever Elijah said caused Evan to furrow his brows, nodding slightly, "Alright, I'll follow your lead. I won't make a move until you're done!" At the halfway point up the hill, nestled among lush greenery, sat Gideon's luxurious villa.
Gideon was still basking in a sense of triumph.
With the contract signed, the crisis looming over him seemed to have been completely averted.

He dreamed of devouring the assets of both Tarquin and Alpha, becoming the wealthiest person in the world. Who would dare challenge him then? He envisioned owning a lion's share of the economy, standing at the pinnacle, looking down on everyone with disdain.
People would only speak of Gideon with envy and admiration.
Lost in his dreams of grandeur, an eerie chill swept through the room, followed by a shadow flitting past the window.
"Who's there?!" The wind was the only response, leaving Gideon puzzled and staring outside. Just as he was about to dismiss it as a trick of the light, a sinister voice broke the silence, "Gideon, for the suffering you've caused and the souls you've oppressed, your end is near..." His heart skipped a beat, his expression turning to one of horror.
That was Elizabeth's voice! "Who's playing these tricks?!" Summoning his courage, he wheeled himself closer to the window. As he approached, Elizabeth suddenly materialized outside! Her hair was disheveled, her face as pale as death, her eyes piercing him like knives. Her voice was a cold whisper, "Gideon, your many sins have sealed your fate. Your end is near." Gideon's eyes widened in sheer terror, instinctively backing away several meters.
Rubbing his eyes and looking again, Elizabeth was still there, repeating, "Gideon, your thas come... your thas come..." As Elizabeth seemed about to climb through the window, Gideon screamed at the top of his lungs for help.
The study door burst open, and Gideon yelled, "There's a ghost at the window... there's..." Before he could finish, the person who entered made his eyes nearly pop out of their sockets.

Her voice seemed to cfrom the depths of the underworld, "Gideon, giveback my life, the lives of my family..." Gideon was so terrified that he fell out of his wheelchair, "Ghosts! Ghosts, somebody help!" Several people rushed in, not living souls, but specters! Phineas was there! Keith's two brothers were there! Keith himself was there! And a throng of strangers entered! Swere crying, but instead of tears, blood trickled down their faces!
They approached with bizarre expressions, hands outstretched blood streaming, lamenting, condemning, "Gideon, for your wicked deeds, you will not rest in peace. We've cfor vengeance!"
"Gideon, your end is upon you. You will suffer beyond measure doomed to the deepest pits of hell, worse than En any of us, hahaha..." Gideon lay on the floor, his legs useless, unable to run, watching in terror, "Back off! Get away! Leavealone! Ahhh!" The household staff were utterly baffled, "Master?!"
As they tried to help Gideon up, he pushed them away, Get out! Don't touch me! Don't touch me!" The staff exchanged confused looks.
