Erica spent the rest of the day hanging out in the mall and buying gifts before returning home.

She had been staying in the Hilton family's manor during daytime for the last two days, and hadn't looked around Matthew's four-story villa she was now living in. Erica assumed that Matthew wouldn't come back this evening either, so she wanted to take this chance to look around his villa.

The Pearl Villa District was a private residence that was built only a few years ago. It was not far from the Hilton family's manor. Sheffield and Matthew each bought a villa there, and before long, the Pearl Villa

District became a famous rich community in Alorith.

Matthew never Lived in this villa before, even though he had bought it a few years ago. However, since he and Erica got married, they had taken it as their wedding house.

The villa had four floors and was equipped with elevators. Each room was decorated thoughtfully, in a simple yet Luxurious way.

On the first floor was the Living room; the kitchen; the main storage room and so on. Another thing worth mentioning was also something that

Erica was interested in-Matthew had an extravagant wine cellar in the basement.

The wine cellar covered dozens of square meters. It had an automatic thermostat to preserve a Large variety of limited-edition and expensive wines from around the world. There were at least thousands of bottles of red wine in total, all kept nicely.

Erica was shocked when she saw the wine cellar for the first time. Her grandmother also had a wine cellar, but there were only hundreds of bottles of wine at most. Compared with Matthew's cellar, her grandmother's collection was nothing.

The second floor mostly had several bedrooms, all of which were decorated similarly. The bedroom on the third floor, however, was the master bedroom where Matthew and Erica were staying. The master bedroom occupied almost half of the third floor, opposite to which was the study and two empty rooms.

On the fourth floor was the gym, the billiard's room, the entertainment room, the meditation room and the open-air swimming pool. The swimming pool was certainly worth mentioning because the bottom of the pool was made of glass, which meant that people on the third floor could see the swimming pool clearly.

Sitting next to the swimming pool, Erica cupped her chin with her hands and looked at the crystal clear water, deep in thought. ‘If someone was swimming here, wouldn't people on the third floor see everything?

I wonder why Matthew would have someone design the swimming pool in such a way. Is he some kind of pervert?’

That night when Matthew arrived home, it was eleven o'clock and he sensed that something was wrong the moment he opened the door.

The lights in the living room were switched off, but the 100-inch TV was still on. It was playing a movie-a scary one. On the screen, the black and white messengers from the hell were talking to a ghost with long hair and dressed in white, standing by a decrepit tomb.

“Your soul has been hovering here for six years. It's time you return to the world of the living!" The black and white messengers spoke in harmony.

The ghost floating in the air started crying, but instead of tears, there was blood in her eyes.

"But I haven't seen my husband. I cannot leave yet! I won't leave!”

“This time it is not up to you!"

Just when the black and white messengers were about to capture the female ghost, another ghost, seemingly male, with a green-colored face and sharp teeth rushed out from nowhere.

The woman on the sofa clutched the cushion in her hand tightly as the noise from the TV blared intensely. She kept reciting "Amitabha" in her mind while her eyes remained glued to the screen.

“You. said the man abruptly, as he stood next to her. Frightened out of her wits, Erica screamed at the top of her lungs and jumped to her feet.

“Abhhh!"

When she recognized the man in front of her, she screamed for another three seconds before she finally stopped.
