Today was the day that Renee was supposed to officially move out of Sunup Residence.


    Although it was mainly because she wanted to avoid her ex–husband, Stefan, she had also been


    dreaming about moving to her new ce for four years.


    Her new ce would be the Everheart Residence!


    After the Everheart family went bankrupt four years ago, the court sold off their three–story mansion.


    Nevertheless, since her parents had passed away at the mansion, no one dared to purchase it, even at


    a modest price.


    It was auctioned off again a few days ago.


    This time, Renee bought it for 1.5 billion without further hesitation.


    She only told Leia and Liam about her new home, who both wanted to throw her a housewarming


    party. Leia even said that she’d be bringing a mysterious guest.


    Renee quickly agreed to it as she wanted the abandoned Everheart Residence to feel lively again.


    She hadn’t stayed in Sunup Residence for long, and there wasn’t much to pack.


    Before leaving, she gave the door onest look and couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly.


    ‘Stefan is probably in bed with Briar talking about their wedding,‘ she thought to herself.


    Her hast move did seem a little unnecessary, seeing as to how Stefan didn’t seem to care one bit.


    She took a deep breath, shook her head, and forced herself to forget him.


    ‘It’s all in the past!‘ she told herself.

    After this, there would be no connection between them, not unless they became business rivals.


    The car drove past the cities before arriving at a quiet ce on the outskirts.


    Beach City’s residents used to say that the rich flourished in the South, the poor survived in the North,


    the nobles resided in the West, and chaos existed in the East.


    True to the saying, those who lived in the West were mostly nobility.


    There were either high–ranking officials, leaders in the academic world, or an aristocrat whose


    ancestors had some rtion to the royal family for three generations. On the other hand, the extremely


    wealthy didn’t live there very often.


    Renee’s grandfather was a warrior on the battlefield, while her grandmother’s identity had been a


    mystery, but it was said. that she was closely linked to the royals.


    So, when the Everheart family was at its finest and amassed almost as much wealth as the top three


    families of The Great Eight of Beach City, they chose to reside in the West.


    However, everything crumbled before they could even settle in.


    Thus, the once magnificent Everheart residence became a dusty, cobweb–infested shell, marred by a


    forest of weeds that conquered most of its grounds.


    The unkempt sight disappointed Renee, but she knew that it would be over soon. She knew the


    Everheart residence would reim its glory once again.


    Everything was going well until the cleaning service called to cancel their appointment.


    The hup quickly made her anxious.


    Although the house seemed sturdy on the outside, the same couldn’t be said about its interior.


    The original housekeeper had refused toe because she didn’t want to clean the entire ce on her


    own.


    Thus, Renee called several house cleaning services right away, but when they heard that the job was


    at the Everheart. residence, they immediately refused, making up silly excuses as they went along.


    ‘The Everheart residence is haunted. Who’d dare to go there?!”


    I heard that the ghosts of the husband and wife are trapped in the house. After dark, you can hear them


    cry and howl all night!‘”


    After hearing the same story several times, Renee couldn’t help but frown. She wondered if her


    parents‘ ghosts were really even trapped there.


    If they were, she wouldn’t be the least scared.


    In fact, she wished that her family was with her!


    Renee got off the car moment it stopped in front of the Everheart residence.


    The house gave off a familiar yet strange feeling.


    The iron fence was caked in rust, and in the ce where the flower garden once was were weeds as


    tall as people.


    Seeing this, Renee felt a wave of sadness wash over her, and tears began to roll down her face.


    ‘Grandpa, Dad, Mum, I’m back,‘ she cried.


    Just as she was about to enter the house, she saw something peculiar.
