Chapter 255: Chapter 255: My Daughter Actually Befriended a Ghost

Gregory Xander was also curious about the person who sent Scarlett Jennings messages.

But he didn’t like guessing; he preferred to ask directly.

So he turned his head, "Who’s the person sending you photos?"

Scarlett glanced at Gregory, just about to reveal the answer when Amber Livingston suddenly interrupted her.

"Wait, wait. Let our audience guess first; this is our interaction segment, we need engagement."

Amber felt she was exhausting herself for the sake of the livestream’s effect, especially since these two loved to give things straight.

The main theme was Q&A, but that would make the livestream less entertaining.

The livestream audience had been waiting for Scarlett to reveal the answer; hearing Amber interrupt, they couldn’t help but groan, urging the person at the front to reveal the answer.

They were here to watch the livestream; they refused to use their brains.

The person at the front got a bit nervous seeing everyone urging them for the answer, but quickly typed out an explanation,

[The answer is actually straightforward; though the chat page Scarlett showed earlier didn’t have a named contact, there was an avatar. If you enlarge a screenshot of the recorded screen, you’ll see it!]

Soon, some viewers followed suit, but the result was still blurry.

[It’s just a villa background picture, pretty ordinary.]

[Who uses a villa photo as an avatar? Bit flashy, isn’t it?]

[Damn! Don’t you guys think that villa looks familiar?]

[Seems a bit familiar.]

[Ay-ma! Isn’t this the Garrison Family villa from the first episode?!]

[No way? Could it be someone from the Garrison Family? Does Scarlett actually have contact with that family?]

[Don’t forget, besides the Garrison Family, others also lived in that villa...]

[Come on, you don’t mean that person...]

[By the way, after the first episode ended, someone had posted a long post on Weibo thanking the lady ghost in the villa, roughly saying a girl who was tricked by a scumbag ran to the villa seeking help from the ghost to punish the scumbag, and the scumbag actually got punished, eventually returning the money he had taken.]

[I think I saw that post! But wasn’t that story fake?]

[The lady ghost story is real! I also secretly asked for help, and later my ex-boyfriend even apologized to me!]

[I’ve heard about this too; it seems many online believe it. A lot of gifts and milk tea have supposedly been placed outside the Garrison Family villa, and it’s said the security in the villa area has been heightened to prevent people from sneaking over to deliver offerings.]

[No way, no way? Are you guys suggesting the messages Scarlett got were from the villa...?]

In the livestream room, the show’s guests looked at the discussion in the comments and subconsciously turned to Scarlett, seemingly in disbelief,

"Scarlett, what they’re saying, could it be true?"

The one in the villa wasn’t a... Ghost, right?

Gregory and some newcomers hadn’t watched the first episode and didn’t know who "that person" was, so they looked a bit bewildered.

Scarlett saw Ariel and the others looking at her and was about to speak, then remembered Amber’s words, and instantly put on a serious face and said, "You guess."

Guests: ...

Before Scarlett could provide a final answer, another comment popped up in the livestream.

[Stop guessing; someone admitted to it on Weibo!]

Upon hearing there was an insider, the livestream viewers and the show’s crew quickly searched in real time.

Soon, they found a recently posted long Weibo.

The owner of the Weibo was reportedly a girl living in the same apartment building as Seth Houghton.

[About a month ago, I accidentally found a note tied to a small parachute in the garden downstairs. The note’s author called herself Elsa, saying she was trapped by someone claiming to be her husband and hoped someone who saw the note would call the police. She even noted specific floor information.

I felt it wasn’t a prank and cautiously reported it. The police went to the address, but soon the investigation results showed that the two were indeed legally married, but the woman had shown signs of mental instability post-marriage, so the man kept her confined, but not actually imprisoned.

Since they were legally married, and the woman was indeed talking nonsense when the police arrived, they only gave a verbal warning before leaving.

I thought I’d messed up until last week when I encountered the couple in the elevator, but by then the woman’s leg was broken.

I distinctly remember, she deliberately dropped her blanket, and while her husband squatted to pick it up, she looked up at me with eyes full of plead and despair, mouthing silently, ’Help me’...]

The Weibo author didn’t express anything at the time but felt more and more uneasy afterward, secretly observing for a few days. She did notice some peculiarities about that household.

But because the first police visit yielded no results, she didn’t know how to help that young woman.

After all, nowadays, with a marriage label, even intentional harm could be defined as internal marital conflict.

Police couldn’t intervene, and using legal means to sue for divorce was even harder.

One might end up dead before the court verdict.

Unable to find a good solution and afraid of causing harm, she then saw the online rumor regarding the Garrison Family villa.

The rumor said a lady ghost harmed by a scumbag lived in the villa. If you wanted to punish the scumbag, you could bring his picture and an offering to sincerely make a wish to the lady ghost.

The girl, feeling it’s her last hope, went to the rumored Garrison Family villa gate to make a wish for that poor woman.

She initially had little hope until today when she stumbled upon the protagonist of this soul-switching case online...

She immediately concluded the lady ghost must have worked some magic!

After the girl posted on Weibo, benefiting from the soul-switching case’s popularity, many users commented below. Most viewers who watched "Inspiration" knew about the lady ghost in the Garrison Family villa.

The ghost’s story was dug up again.

A victim from another era, persecuted and killed by a scumbag, now occupying a lonely large villa as a "pitiful ghost."

Several people even shared their testimonials, claiming it’s true the lady ghost helped punish a scumbag!

Because they too had made wishes there.

Although some viewers already guessed the answer, actually seeing the testimonials online still felt incredible. Quite a few even subconsciously swallowed,

[So...the messages to Scarlett were really from... Quinn Quinn?]

[So, my girl Scarlett actually befriended a ghost?]

[This is thrilling; I need a moment.]

[So, does this count as cheating?]
