“The film industry’s rising star collapses.”
There was a picture of him rushing out of the hotel in his nightgown under the headline.
Just as he was thinking, his finger slid down and he realized that someone had taken a picture of him.
Jonas fell silent.
The internet was shocked, and everyone speculated about what had happened. The film industry’s rising star had rushed out of the hotel, disregarding his image, and disappeared overnight.
Some said that he was sleepwalking, and some said that he was drunk.
Fans said that Jonas was too passionate about his work and praised him for his dedication.
Someone said, “That’s not dedication, I think he saw a ghost…”
Jonas really wanted to reply to the comment and confirm that their guess was accurate.
He thought about his image and answered another call. Jonas had no choice but to clarify on Twitter.
Considering his own identity, he answered another call… Jonas had no choice but to clarify on his social media.
“Sorry, my mother has been in poor health. Something happened last night, so I rushed home.”
Jonas recalled what had happened in the morning and felt that what he said wasn’t a lie.
His mother had been able to stand up. Wasn’t that a big event?
His fans overanalyzed the situation.
“Oh, is that so? You’re so filial, Jonas!”
“You rushed home in such a hurry. I hope your mother is okay. Bless you!”
“Judging from Jonas’ tone, her situation shouldn’t be very good! Jonas has never been like this before. Something bad must have happened to his mother. I hope she’s okay. I’ll keep you in my prayers!”
“Why did this happen? She must have suffered! I’m crying!”
Immediately afterward, a large group of fans who didn’t understand the situation also commented.
“Rest in peace, Mrs. Crawford.”
“Boo hoo… Rest in peace, Mrs. Crawford!”
“May she rest in peace. You have my condolences!”
Mrs. Crawford told Mr. Crawford that she was able to stand up in a flustered and surprised manner. Mr. Crawford said that she should go to the hospital for an examination immediately.
Mrs. Crawford picked up her phone but saw several major platforms posting a piece of news at the same time.
“Actor Jonas’ mother was suspected to have passed away last night.”
The comments below were all filled with candle emojis.
Mrs. Crawford was confused.
She was still alive.
Looking at Jonas’ scarf, she smirked.
Thank you, son. You’re such a good boy!
Jonas hadn’t paid attention after she took the scarf, but he said to Lilly sincerely, “Lilly, I was wrong. I should have believed you last night.”
Lilly smiled softly. “I told you so! You’ll suffer if you don’t believe me!”
Jonas replied, “You’re right!”
During breakfast, Jonas was scolded by Mrs. Crawford, and only then did he realize the misunderstanding on the internet.
He then clarified on his social media, saying that his mother was fine and to stop spreading rumors.
His fans replied to him.
“Jonas must have been enduring so much pain.”
“Jonas, why did you have to go through this pain?”
“It’s good to hear that she’s fine. I hope she’s doing well!”
“Is she in the ICU?”
Jonas was speechless.
After dinner, Anthony would take Mrs. Crawford and Mr. Crawford to the hospital, and Blake would take Lilly and Hannah to kindergarten.
Jonas’s heart tightened. What was he supposed to do?
He thought of the female ghost and got goosebumps.
Jonas said to Lilly, “Lilly, do you want me to teach you how to skip school?”
Blake was speechless.
How dare he teach this kid to develop bad habits?
Blake looked at Jonas with an unkind expression.
Lilly pointed to the main building’s door and comforted him. “Don’t be nervous, Uncle Jonas! You’ll be fine as long as you don’t leave the house! Wait for me after school!”
After finishing speaking, she patted his head.
Jonas felt like he was being treated like a child.
However, Jonas no longer doubted her words. He wasn’t going to step out of his room.
However, at that moment, he heard noises coming from outside the gate. Jack hurried in and said to Jonas, “Mr. Crawford, there are people outside the gate claiming to be the family members of one of your fans. That fan jumped off a building yesterday and died. They want you to give them an explanation.”
“How did they find my address?”
Jonas’s heart sank, and he thought of that female ghost. He asked, “Where did she jump?”
Jack said, “Last night, at midnight, she jumped from the 44th floor of the Castelia Hotel.”
Coincidentally, it was the same hotel where Jonas had stayed the previous night.
“However, it seemed that the fan was malfunctioning. When she took her own life, she was wearing a red dress and left behind a pair of red high-heeled shoes. The type of red shoes one would wear on their wedding day.”
“There were two lit red candles on either side of the vanity mirror, and the last scarf she wore before her suicide last night was…”
Jack found an account, clicked on it, and showed it to Jonas.
The caption beneath the post read, “I am marrying Jonas tonight.”
The picture showed a girl with makeup, who had photoshopped herself and Jonas together.
Jonas narrowed his eyes and stared at the photo.
However, she did not resemble the ghost he had seen the previous day.
Could it be that he had slept with two ghosts yesterday?
Jack asked, “Mr. Crawford, would you like to take a look?”
