Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 2240: Chapter 2240: We Are Worshiping Ghosts and Spirits

The maids all shivered collectively, each showing a look of terror on their faces.

But they didn’t dare delay and hurried inside.

”Quick, pull him away!” Laffey’s face was deathly pale with fright, and her whole body was trembling.

She never would have thought that upon waking up, she would be sleeping with a dead body, naked, and even embracing it.

Laffey felt she was having a nightmare!

The most terrifying nightmare of her life!

After a person dies, their body gradually stiffens. The man’s arms and legs were hugging her, already stiff and hard to pry apart.

The maids exerted a lot of effort to pull him away.

As soon as he was pulled away, Laffey crawled and stumbled to the bathroom to vomit.

Just thinking about sleeping in an embrace with a dead body all night was so disgusting and horrifying...

Laffey vomited for a long time and even took three long showers to scrub herself clean.

She even wanted to change her bedroom; she absolutely refused to stay in this one anymore!

She kept this incident under wraps; after all, if it leaked out, it would be her reputation that suffered.

It was several hours before Laffey calmed down.

It was only then that she realized that the man was the one sent last night to shame Jian Yufei.

Wasn’t he supposed to be in Jian Yufei’s room, waiting for them to catch him in the act?

How did he suddenly die and end up in her room?

No doubt about it, it must be Jian Yufei who did it!

Laffey clenched her fists, her face livid, and immediately went with her people to confront them!

...

Jian Yufei and Mi Sha were in their room praying devoutly.

Laffey angrily pushed the door open and saw the two of them with hands clasped, mysteriously praying toward the window.

”What are you doing?!” she asked harshly.

”Shhh.” Mi Sha turned her head, gesturing for her to keep her voice down, ”We’re praying to the ghosts and gods.”

”Ghosts and gods?!” Laffey’s face turned somewhat sour.

Mi Sha nodded, ”Don’t you know, when a person is murdered, their ghost lingers around their enemy, looking for a chance for revenge. Last night...”

At this point, Mi Sha shivered, looking very terrified.

Laffey was somewhat scared too.

Only last night she’d slept with a corpse. Honestly, right now, she feared ghosts and the like the most.

”What happened last night?!” she asked, striving to remain calm.

Mi Sha replied, ”Last night, we suddenly and inexplicably fell asleep. Not long after, we heard very strange noises, and then we opened our eyes to see a terrifying black shadow carrying a man out through the window. That shadow must have been a ghost, so when we woke up, we kept praying to the Goddess of Mercy.”

What Mi Sha said was somewhat absurd but she spoke with utter seriousness.

A thought flashed through Laffey’s mind.

Could it really be the work of a ghost?

Did they kill the person and bring them to her room?

Impossible, how could there be such absurd happenings?

Besides, last night her people confirmed that Jian Yufei and the others had been drugged with an Aphrodisiac and were unconscious.

Moreover, this is the Palace, heavily guarded, and they wouldn’t have the means to bring someone to her room.

Then who did it?

No matter how she thought about it, Laffey couldn’t figure it out.

She looked towards Jian Yufei, only to realize that her complexion was terrible, her eyes empty, as if she had lost her soul.

”What happened to her?” she asked Mi Sha.

Mi Sha immediately burst into anger and hatred: ”You have the audacity to ask! What did you do to us last night, and what did you do to her?”
