Way Back Into Love (Essie)

Chapter 788 The Price Of Irritating Me

"Heaven pepper? What's wrong with you?" Jim stood up in a hurry and darted to her.

Her face was as pale as a piece of paper. Subconsciously, she jumped on him, like a drowning person

who saw a life-saving straw and desperately wanted to grab it.

As a result, Jim's throat became dry, as if he was a passenger who had walked in the Sahara desert for

a few days without drinking water. He tried to control it with his remaining sanity, but there was no way

to control the hormones running in his blood.

At this moment, Eva's mind was blank, and the strong fear had made her lose her reason. The horrible

portrait of Janice kept shaking in front of her eyes, which made her scared to death. She instinctively

wanted to find a living person to protect her, and Jim was the only living person in front of her.

Soon, she felt his difference, very obvious. She was shocked and realized what she had done.

A hot wave quickly surged up from her neck, turning her whole face into a washington apple.

She jumped down in a hurry, turned around and tried to escape into the cabin, but was surrounded by

his powerful force like a tornado and confined by the ship rail.

She lit the fire in him. There was no way for her to escape!

"I... I... I was scared just now," she was so embarrassed that she stammered to explain. Just now, she

had completely ignored the truth that the person in front of her was the most terrifying, one hundred

times more terrifying than the ghost in the phone.

"You have to pay the price if you offend me." His dark brown eyes were blazing with fire, and his voice

was hoarse and deep as if it was burned by fire.

"I..." She only uttered one word, but was blocked. She was frightened for a moment and wanted to

push him away, but her hand was quickly grabbed by him and bound to the rail.

The sea breeze blew, gently and softly, like a couple's warm fingers across the deck.

It was enveloped by a burst of harmonious factors, which lasted for a long time...

This heaven pepper made him lose control again.

After Eva calmed down, she was extremely embarrassed and annoyed. It was all because of that damn

photo that scared her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have jumped on scum Jim. Thinking of this, she finally

remembered the phone that had been thrown on the ground.

Because she had used too much strength just now, her phone had been turned off automatically.

When she was about to pick it up, Jim walked over and picked it up for her. "What did you see just

now?" he asked casually.

"Horrible pictures," she answered haltingly and turned on the phone. She looked for the photo album,

but didn't find the photo of Janice.

Then, what was that she saw just now?

She couldn't help shivering. Janet said that Janice was with Jim. Was she on the yacht?

She opened her eyes wide in horror and looked around cautiously, especially in the dark corner where

the sunlight couldn't reach. Ghosts were afraid of the sunlight, so they would certainly hide in the

shadows.

Jim saw the frightened expression on her face, and a sharp look flashed through his eyes.

He remembered that she had been like this at the cocktail party yesterday, and then began to talk

nonsense.

"Heaven pepper, have you seen a ghost?" There was a touch of ridicule in his tone.

Eva's face was still a little red. She raised her head and glared at him. This bastard took advantage of

her again. She didn't want to be laughed at to death by him as a lunatic.

"It's daytime. How can there be a ghost?"

"Otherwise, how could you be scared out of your mind?" Jim sneered. No matter what kind of picture it

was just now, it appeared in time. It should be interesting if it appeared more times in the future.

"I was watching the news when a horrible picture suddenly popped up. I was scared." Eva pouted.

"Aren't you afraid of nothing but the three things? Since when did you afraid of horror photos? It seems

that we can't call you Bold Fang in the future, but call you Timid Fang instead," Jim said with half sneer

and half banter.

"That's not an ordinary horror picture. It's a person, and I know her." Irritated by him, Eva almost blurted

out.

Jim was shocked, "Is there someone playing a trick on you?"

"I don't know." Realizing that he had said something wrong, Eva lowered her head.

Jim grabbed her phone and said, "Where are the photos? Let me have a look."

"I was just looking for it. It's gone. It's like a ghost," Eva muttered.

A sharp and deep cold light flashed through Jim's eyes. "What did you see at the party last night?"

"Do you think I'm crazy?" Eva said haltingly in a very low voice. Since she had spilled the beans, it was

better to say it out to test his reaction.

"You really saw a ghost? No wonder you came here early in the morning to talk nonsense," Jim said

with a teasing smile.

"I knew you would say that, so I don't want to tell you." Eva picked up the juice on the table and took a

sip to ease the shock and embarrassment in her heart. She was scared by a ghost first, and then taken

advantage of by this bastard. What a bad luck today.

Jim's eyes swept across her. He pursed his lips and looked a little serious. "If you are willing to tell me,

I can consider helping you analyze it."

"You can't take me as a psycho." Eva put his hands on her hips with a hint of threat.

"I can tell at a glance whether you are mentally normal or not." Jim pursed his lips and stared at her

sharply.

She hesitated for a while and decided not to tell him it was Janice for the time being, so that he might

be more rational and objective.

She looked around and made sure that there was nothing wrong. Then she said in a very low voice, Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"Last night, I saw ghosts two times. The first time was at the party, and the second time was downstairs

of the hotel."

"Male ghost or female ghost?" Jim slightly raised his eyebrows, and his expression became more

serious.

"Female ghost," Eva said.

"The same as what appeared on your phone just now?"

"Yes."

"What's her relationship with you?"

"It doesn't matter. She is the girlfriend of one of my middle school classmates. She has been dead for a

long time," she made up an excuse and said lightly.

Sitting on the chair beside her, Jim touched his chin thoughtfully and said, "Generally speaking, ghosts

come from the heart. Have you often thought of this person because of something recently?"

"My classmate did mention her to me, but there is no reason for her to show up in front of me." Eva

shivered and held her arm. Her body was trembling slightly. It seemed that she was really scared.

Almost subconsciously, Jim stretched out his arms and wanted to hold her, but before his fingers

touched her thin shoulder, he froze in midair and slowly took them back.

Why did he have the pity for this silly girl again?

Eva was immersed in horror and didn't notice his action at all.

"Scum Jim, don't laugh at me." Because of fear, the flush on her face had completely faded away, as

pale as a piece of paper.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, [ ] wrinkled his nose and added, "I'm fine. I'm not crazy."

"I know," Jim opened his mouth slightly and said in a hoarse voice. He soon realized his abnormality

and coughed.

"Then do you believe that I really saw a ghost?" Eva looked at him with her eyes wide open.

"Heaven pepper. Normal people will have hallucinations when they are under great mental pressure,"

Jim analyzed slowly.

"I also thought it was my illusion, but I never met this person. I just saw her photos. Why all my illusions

are about her, not anyone else?" Eva asked in confusion.

"There should be something related to her around you recently. Although you don't pay special

attention to it, your sub-consciousness has been radiated," Jim explained.

'Is that so?' Eva blinked. Although his analysis was reasonable, she still felt that what she saw was a

ghost.
