Huffing, Jeffrey went back to his house. "She''s just in love and angered by some jerk. She''lle back


    around in a few days and everything will be back to normal again." Then, ignoring everything that Daisy


    had said, he closed the door firmly.


    After a while, Ava came back. "Jeffrey, where''s Ren? Did you cook her nice food and spend some time


    with her?" Ava had been concerned about Renee. After putting away the fishing, she hurried home


    to wee her family''s benefactor.

    "I cooked her some food, and she''s resting now. Mom, don''t disturb her." Jeffrey hurriedly stopped Ava


    just as she was about to go upstairs.


    "Oh, she''s resting..." Ava heaved a sigh. "She must be upset over something since she went to the


    beach alone in the middle of the night. She even locked herself up in broad daylight, and doesn''t look


    energetic at all. How pitiful!"


    Jeffrey''s doubts grew when he heard that. Renee went out at night instead of the day, and looked frail


    and distant... It really did seem like an evil spirit had possessed her. Jeffrey wondered if Daisy was


    right.


    "Mom, have you heard about the legend of the sea witch?" Jeffrey asked Ava.


    "Of course!" Ava rolled up her sleeves and said, “It happened in the vige next to our neighboring


    vige many years ago. It was horrible... I heard that there was a couple who kindly adopted a boy, but


    that boy did terrible things to that couple’s daughter. Atst, the boy went mad and killed his entire


    family, then left with that girl. Some people said that the girl had been bewitched by the sea witch to


    seduce her biological brother and the adopted boy, and the two boys then tried to harm each other...


    Oh, it really was a tragedy!" 1


    Unexpectedly, Renee happened to hear that as she was heading downstairs. To her surprise, it


    sounded like her brother''s story. A fisherman''s family had adopted her brother, but they had mistreated


    him. Besides, the son of that family was cruel, and tried to take advantage of his sister. Quinton had


    wanted to save Joanne, the fisherman''s daughter, but the story became more twisted as people talked


    about it.


    "Mom, to be honest, I''m a little worried. Is Renee affected by something bad? She looks so emotionless


    and frail these days," Jeffrey said worriedly.


    "That can''t be." Although Ava didn''t believe it, she was still worried. She looked upstairs and happened


    to meet Renee''s gaze, which terrified her.
