Filed to story: A Little Princess's Journey from Darkness to Light Novel
Mrs. Crawford was shocked and angry. He was wearing a nightgown like an exhibitionist. Was he going to lift his nightgown the next second?
She was just an old lady, and he was acting crazy!
Jonas was taken aback for a moment and quickly realized that Mrs. Crawford had stood up!
He said in astonishment, “Mom, it’s me…”
Mrs. Crawford was puzzled, “… Jonas??”
Jonas said, “Mom, you didn’t recognize me?”
Mrs. Crawford remained silent.
She didn’t recognize him without clothes on.
Mrs. Crawford couldn’t help but roll her eyes, sat back down in her wheelchair, and said, “What’s gotten into you? It’s like a wild animal is chasing you.”
Jonas temporarily forgot about the ghost and pointed to her feet. “Mom, you just stood up.”
Mrs. Crawford babbled as she controlled the wheelchair to go outside. “What’s the big deal? It’s not normal for me to be able to stand up…”
Wait, stand up?
Mrs. Crawford also froze in astonishment.
She had been able to stand for most of her life, unlike some people who had been disabled for ten or twenty years and still couldn’t stand up. She had forgotten that feeling.
Realizing that she could stand up now, Mrs. Crawford was dumbfounded.
“I can stand?”
Mrs. Crawford supported herself on the wheelchair, trembling, and attempted to stand up. But whether it was due to psychological factors or not, she failed.
Jonas quickly helped her.
Mrs. Crawford felt disappointed, as she could only do it as a reflex when there was danger.
Jonas didn’t see it that way and comforted her, “Since you can stand up, you’ll definitely be able to do it in the future.”
“Maybe you can even dance with the other old ladies,” he teased in a lighthearted tone.
Mrs. Crawford’s eyes lit up with hope, and she suddenly remembered that she had kicked Mr. Crawford two days ago.
She panicked and controlled the wheelchair to go to the elevator. “I’m going to find the old man…”
Jonas breathed a sigh of relief and heard a shy voice in his ear, “Turns out you also have a gentle side! I’m starting to like you more!”
Jonas remained silent.
D*mn, I forgot about the ghost just now!
Jonas, still wearing his nightgown, ran upstairs. “Lilly…”
Just as the female ghost was about to follow him, she suddenly sensed something was wrong. Her expression changed, and she hurriedly flew outside.
She disappeared…
Anthony walked over with his coffee and frowned. “Lilly hasn’t woken up yet. What’s going on?”
Jonas replied, “It’s urgent!”
Edward, holding a handbag and a piece of bread in his mouth, was in a hurry and only said, “Judging by your face, did you see a ghost?”
Jonas remained silent, as he had indeed seen a ghost.
As soon as Lilly opened her eyes, she saw Jonas standing in front of her.
“Huh, Uncle Jonas? Why are you here? I haven’t finished making the dumplings yet!”
Startled, Jonas replied, “Lilly, I saw a ghost.”
Lilly, still groggy, asked, “Huh? What do you mean?”
Jonas remained silent.
Jonas furrowed his eyebrows. “I’m not talking about the dumplings, I’m talking about the ghost. The story you told me yesterday… I actually saw a female ghost!”
Lilly looked at him suspiciously. “There is no female ghost.”
However, it was true that Jonas had a negative aura surrounding him.
Jonas immediately said, “It’s normal for you not to be able to see her. She’s just over…”
He was about to point to the side but suddenly realized that the female ghost had disappeared.
Jonas looked around in astonishment, but the female ghost was nowhere to be found.
Did she run away?
Pablo went out to check and came back after a while. He said, “It seems like she ran away. She left quite quickly.”
He looked at Jonas. “Were you unlucky? I think you encountered a malevolent spirit.”
Lilly asked, “What about the swelling?”
Pablo’s eyes flickered. Since the ghost had already found Jonas, of course, he was going to lure it out.
Lilly crawled to the side of the bed, stood up, and reached Jonas’s chest.
“Please lower your head, Uncle Jonas,” she tiptoed and stretched out her hands.
Jonas bent down.
Lilly patted his head, muttering, “I’m patting your head, everything will be fine.”
Then her little hand patted his shoulders and legs. “I’m touching your legs, everything will be okay.”
Jonas remained silent.
The negative aura disappeared.
Jonas felt his body becoming lighter and calmed down.
Pablo grinned. “Who taught you all this?”
Lilly answered Pablo and pointed. “My master!”
Jonas still remained silent.
He remembered that his eldest brother had told him that Lilly had a master by her side. Maybe she had been through hardships while growing up and wanted someone to protect her.
But there was another possibility. If her master really existed, how could Lilly know Gilbert’s phone number?
However, at that time, Jonas did not take it seriously and was more inclined to believe that Lilly had a psychological problem. There was also an argument because Anthony did not send Lilly to see a psychiatrist…
However, right now…
Jonas subconsciously pushed his glasses but realized that he wasn’t even wearing them.
Anthony came in with a tablet and said lightly, “Are you awake yet? Check out the entertainment news and you’ll be wide awake.”
Jonas took the tablet and saw a headline in bold letters.
