Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 138

Chapter 138 Ancestral Spirits Came Knocking. Humiliation Part 1

Ray’s grandma cried for a while without anyone caring about her…

Ray was watching cartoons at the side. He kicked the items off the table in frustration, “You’re noisy! Can you be a little quieter?”

Ray’s grandma had to lower her voice.

Ray’s father held his phone, and he said with distress, “I don’t know what’s going on. Mr. MacNeil hasn’t answered the phone.”

Ray’s father was referring to Mr. Tristan from the MacNeil family.

Ray’s mother sighed. She said, “We need someone willing to back us up. This matter is getting serious. The Crawford family will not spare us easily. Making our family bankrupt is as easy as a piece of cake for them!”

Previously, they thought justice was on their side. If the Crawford family made them go bankrupt, they would expose the matter online, criticizing the Crawford family for doing whatever they wanted with money and influence.

However, they were condemned by the public. The Internet would only respond with cheers even if the Crawford family drove them to bankruptcy.

Ray’s parents were deeply regretful. Ray’s grandma caused so much harm to the family!

Ray’s grandma quickly said, “I’m close to Giuliana. Let me call her!”

After finishing speaking, Ray’s grandma took out her phone. She dialed the number several times before finally getting through.

Ray’s grandma immediately smiled, and he said, “Hello, Old Mrs. MacNeil, it’s me…”

Giuliana responded angrily, “Stop calling us. Are you trying to ruin my family?”

After saying that, Giuliana did not explain the reasons, and she hung up the phone call.

Ray’s grandma was stupefied.

“The MacNeil family is influential. Why are they afraid of the Crawford family?”

Unbeknownst to Ray’s grandma, the MacNeil family was in fear.

After the 60th birthday, the MacNeil family was humiliated. The prominent families, who had previously sought business cooperation with them, had run away. Their proud relationships with government officials were severed.

At first, the MacNeil family secretly spread the news that Blake was their grandson. However, Blake taught them a lesson, shutting their mouths.

The MacNeil family had no choice but to seek cooperation with lesser-known families that were not present back then. Initially, they thought those families were not qualified when they sent out invitations, but half of those families ignored them.

The MacNeil family’s position was unstable, seemingly approaching their downfall like the tree leaves during autumn…

Then, the MacNeil family finally found Ray’s family, who had some connections and were easy to influence. However, Ray’s family ended up getting in trouble with Lilly!

The more Giuliana thought about it, the more agitated she became. Giuliana said frustratedly, “Lilly said she would recognize me as her great-grandmother, but now she doesn’t even care. She has been ungrateful even since young.”

Giuliana regretted it deeply. If she had acknowledged Lilly as her great-granddaughter, she would be the most influential Old Mrs. MacNeil in Clodston!

Everyone had to greet her humbly as the Old Mrs. MacNeil!

The situation would have been so miserable!

…

It was a sleepless night for many people.

Ray’s grandma tossed and turned in the bed, feeling increasingly aggrieved as she thought about it.

She thought she was only protecting her grandson, thinking she was not at fault.

Ray’s grandma finally drifted off to sleep after tossing and turning for most of the night.

As soon as she shut her eyes, she saw a person dressed in white with a pale complexion. The person stood in front of her, staring at her.

Ray’s grandma was terrified, and she immediately opened her eyes.

“Oh my…” Ray’s grandma patted her chest, “It’s only a dream…”

The windows were slammed shut. Something fell.

Ray’s grandma subconsciously looked over.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

She was petrified by what she saw…

Ray’s grandma saw a row of people, who wore funeral clothes, standing stiffly in a row outside the window.

They showed up in green, blue, and even red funeral clothes…

They stared at Ray’s grandma coldly. The curtains were blown by the wind. They gathered in the room through the window in the blink of an eye.

Ray’s grandma screamed. She felt a warm feeling in the bed. It seemed she had wet herself.

“Help… help me!”

Ray’s grandma tried to scramble up and run away. However, she lost her strength, and she fell to the ground.

She panicked, scrambling to get out while shouting, “Save me… There are ghosts here…!”

A pair of shoes that did not touch the ground appeared in her vision.

She started sobbing in fear. She leaned forward tremblingly, only to see a pair of eyes staring at her.

The person was familiar to her. It was her former mother-in-law whom she had fought tooth and nail.

“Mother-in-law…” Ray’s grandma was terrified

The mother-in-law leered, and she gritted her teeth, “Delores! Are you not satisfied with how you ruined our Medina family?”

The ancestors of the Medina family stared at Delores coldly.

The reincarnation system’s scoring was straightforward. The greater one’s merit, the quicker he would reincarnate.

The ancestors of the Medina family had committed many wrongdoings while alive. They had to remain as ghosts to atone for their sins.

Just as they thought they were about to pay off their sins and reincarnate, a terrible surprise happened.

They were all summoned back to be ghosts.

The ancestors of the Medina family scolded, “A bad wife ruins the family! What a sin!”

“We have to stop her from ruining the Medina family. Let’s drag her to the afterlife with us!”

The ancestors of the Medina family reprimanded and scolded.

An unvirtuous wife brought harm to the family. Delores drove the older generation crazy.

Then, Delores caused the death of her husband.

Later, Delores spoiled the grandson terribly.

The ancestors of the Medina family worked diligently in the underworld to accumulate merits, granting the Medina family a virtuous daughter-in-law…

Delores went against the daughter-in-law. She even persuaded the grandson not to listen to his mother, making him a spoiled child.

Those with merits had already reincarnated. They even left merits to bless their descendants.

The ancestors of the Medina family could not find peace even after death!

The Medina family prayed for the ancestors’ blessings!

However, what could the ancestors of the Medina family do in their situation?

The ancestors grabbed Delores’s leg, dragging her out of the room.

“Come with us!”

Delores shrieked, “No! Help me… Someone help me!”

“I don’t want to die. I haven’t lived enough yet…”

An agonizing scream sounded.

However, Ray’s parents had rushed to the office that night because of a phone call.

Ray was deep asleep.

The house was only left with Delores’s terrified scream.

On the next day, Ray found himself starving after waking up. Ray knocked on the door of Delores’s room, but there was no response.

Once Ray entered the room, he smelled a foul stench.

Then, Ray saw Delores lying on the floor. Her mouth crooked, and her eyes askew. Ray was terrified, and he ran out while screaming.

“Mom, Mommy… Grandma has become a ghost!”

The financial problems of the Medina family were exposed overnight after being reported. Their assets were frozen, leaving them in a state of distress.

Delores suffered a stroke amidst the misfortune. Even though Delores remained alive, she was bedridden, unable to care for herself.

The daughter-in-law did not take good care of Delores due to Delores’s bad attitude toward her in the past.

Delores was in great pain, feeling that being alive was even more unbearable than death. Delores finally learned her lesson, feeling regretful. Tears streamed down her face, with drool and snot mixing with them.

…

Compared to Delores, the influencers riding on the trend to gain popularity did not end up any better.

Some were jailed. Some had their accounts banned. Some had to pay for monetary compensation…

Their wailing filled the Internet.

They regretted it deeply because the Crawford family held them accountable!

The Crawford family is the wealthiest, having a status above us. We are small fries. Why do the big shots bother to hold us accountable?

It’s like an elephant stomping on the ants. Isn’t that too petty?

Yes, we’re at fault for spreading false rumors, but we don’t know the truth at the start…

The ignorant should not be held accountable. A few misunderstandings would not harm your life. Why do you want to send us to jail…
