The female ghost in red cursed under her breath, wishing she could escape, but she was trapped and unable to do so.
Yena panicked and waved her hands, desperately trying to explain, “No... it's not like that... it's Lilly... yes, Lilly is the one who summoned the ghost!” Upon seeing the female ghost in red appearing next to Yena, Blake initially thought it was one of the ghosts Lilly summoned with her jar of souls. He was wondering when his daughter had learned such unconventional methods...
But now he realized that this ghost in a wedding dress was different from the one in the jar of souls..
Mrs. Ferguson, startled and enraged, said, “So it's you!” She had found it strange from the beginning. The Preston family, the Taylor family, the Lean family, and the Zink family had all experienced ghostly encounters recently, and now it was their turn. Moreover, Yena had been the one to discover their misfortune and offer to catch the ghosts.
It turned out that Yena was the one who summoned the ghost! Mrs. Ferguson became furious and sneered, “Very well! I'll call your father right now. If he doesn’t explain what's going on today, this matter will never be resolved!” Yena was dumbfounded when she heard that Mrs. Ferguson intended to call her father.
Panicking, she quickly said, “No, | don’t know this ghost mother... No, I mean, | don’t know this female ghost!” She was so used to calling her ghost mother, that it slipped out as she spoke.
Mrs. Ferguson sneered, and she had already called Shane, demanding him to come right away.
Coincidentally, Shane happened to be nearby, and upon hearing that Blake was also present, he promised to arrive within ten minutes.
Yena’s heart sank as she realized the seriousness of the situation. She could not help but feel that Lilly was being evil. And thought that Lilly came to the Ferguson family when she was catching ghosts on purpose to frame her! Yena, with tears streaming down her face, pleaded desperately, “It's not me, it isn’t!” She could not understand why Lilly would frame her like this when all she had been taught by her ghost mother was to help others and do good deeds.

Yena didn’t seem like she’s lying! Did Lilly frame her intentionally? Mrs. Ferguson could not help but look at Lilly suspiciously.
Yena continued to cry and made a firm declaration, “I swear, it's really not me! | swear to Zeus that I'll be struck by lightning if | lie.” As soon as the words left her mouth, a crack of lightning split the sky, followed by a resounding thunderclap.
Everyone was speechless.
Lilly shook her head and said, “See, you shouldn't make random oaths. God is watching!” Yena was silent.
Lightning struck as she spoke earlier. So, she decided not to make things worse.
But she continued to cry, looking at everyone with an aggrieved expression, as if she had been genuinely wronged.
Lilly said, “Don’t you think there’s enough evidence?” Daddy always said not to give others a chance to turn things against you.
Of course, she had some evidence to convince everyone so that Yena would not find an excuse to claim innocence.
Daddy said that this is called honing the blade, where we must learn to sharpen the knife and not give the enemy an opportunity to rise again.
In response, Lilly took out a talisman.
“This talisman is called the Confession Talisman. Once it is applied to someone, they will confess everything to you obediently no matter if it's a human or ghost!” Blake was shocked. “Huh?” That kind of talisman exist? Lilly continued. “To prove that the talisman is real, let's start with Mrs. Ferguson.” Mrs. Ferguson was startled, “What... what's this?” Then she noticed a talisman stuck on her forehead.
Mrs. Ferguson was suddenly rendered speechless! Observing this, Blake intervened without waiting for Lilly to speak, “My apologies, Mrs. Ferguson. Since you don't believe it, you should try it out for yourself. This way, there won't be any misunderstandings when you share it with others.” His tone was cold, and his eyes were indifferent. Mrs. Ferguson did not dare to say a word...
Blake then looked at Lilly and said, “Go ahead.” Lilly suddenly realized that her father was concerned that others might misunderstand her act of casually applying talismans. To avoid any misconceptions of rudeness, he took over her role.
Feeling touched, she held her father’s finger with her small hand and reassured him, “Don’t worry, Daddy, Lilly knows how to behave!” Lilly looked at Mrs. Ferguson and said, “I'll only ask harmless questions, Mrs. Ferguson, so please don’t be nervous!” “Mrs. Ferguson, do you know how to whistle?” Mrs. Ferguson was silent.
What an odd question! “Yes!” Although her mind seemed to have a mind of its own, she answered honestly.
Lilly continued, “Do you ever secretly fart under the covers and then trap Mr. Ferguson in it?” Mrs. Ferguson was stunned.
However, she could not control her words, “Yes!” Wait, how is this a harmless question? Mrs. Ferguson felt her face reddening, not knowing where to hide her embarrassment.
Lilly swiftly took off the talisman.
I'm sorry, Mrs. Ferguson, | initially wanted to ask you how much money you have privately, but | realize it’s not appropriate to ask about personal finances!” Mrs. Ferguson thought to herself, I'd rather you ask me about the money rather than the questions earlier... boohoo...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, seeing Lilly's sincere expression, she could not stay angry.
Upon reflection, it was understandable. After all, she had doubted Lilly earlier...
Come to think of it, if she had gone out like this today, she would have genuinely suspected something. was amiss with Lilly later on, thinking that the female ghost was under her control.
But now Lilly was obedient and trustworthy. The incident of trapping her husband in bed after farting... Only she and her husband were aware of it.
Who knew there was such a talisman in the world... How scary! Holding the talisman, Lilly approached Yena, who backed away in panic, saying, “Don’t come near me, don't stick that on me...” “Slap! Slap!” The talisman was stuck to the foreheads of both Yena and the female ghost in red.
Yena’s eyes widened, and the female ghost looked furious, but they could not utter a word.
When Lilly posed the question, the female ghost could not control her mouth and revealed all the details. of her plan.
She was tasked with following Yena, teaching her how to catch ghosts, deceiving her that if she performed. well, others would like her, and manipulating her against the Crawford family.
She had released all the little ghosts to the Preston. Taylor, Lean, and Zink families, all with the purpose setting up a formation to seal the Su family and monitor them.
Yena was astonished upon hearing this.
The ghost had actually been deceiving her! No... it can’t be! During this period, Yena was being manipulated and believed that Lilly had stolen her life. She could not accept the reality at all.
After questioning the female ghost, Lilly intended to ask Yena more questions, but Yena was no longer afraid of her as she had been deceived! Regardless of what Lilly asked, she was innocent.
Surprisingly, Lilly did not follow the expected pattern and continued questioning Yena.
