Liam was the highest-ranking architect in the National Infrastructure Development
Company, whereas Edward was the managing director. Similarly, Liam was in charge of external matters, whereas Edward handled internal matters. They were both important people in the company.
Now both of them were working on the infrastructure development of the West City Development Zone, which had been going on for six years.
Winona did not know why she felt a sense of anxiousness. It was said that the place where the accident happened had already been under development, and no trace nor evidence can be found anymore.
Unless…that person revived…impossible!
Winona calmed herself down and proceeded to wake Hannah up in a soft and melodious voice, “My little Princess Hannah, wake up…”
After finally sending Hannah to kindergarten, Winona came back to the Crawford Mansion. Little did she know that Bettany was waiting for her in the living room on the first floor.
“Bettany…”
Bettany pointed at the sofa and signaled her to sit down, “Why does Hannah go to kindergarten at this hour every day? Have you ever thought that she might interrupt the children’s afternoon nap?” she said coldly.
“Of course not, Bettany. Hannah is a thoughtful girl…” Winona defended.
Bettany let out a sarcastic laugh, “Really? I have been too exhausted to intervene in your matters all these years, but now…”
…
After that, Winona left the room, with her face as pale as paper.
How could Bettany reprimand her?!
She was not her biological mother, she was just a mother-in-law. How could she reprimand her?
Winona did not owe the Crawfords anything, how could Bettany poke her nose in her family, her marriage?!
Winona felt extremely upset. She took her bag and went out to join her mother for shopping.

Liam and Edward brought Lilly to the construction site. She could not help but gasp when she saw the enormous stadium that was still under construction.
“Uncle Liam, what is that?”
“This is the newly built stadium,” Liam grinned.
Lilly laid her chin on the window, and her eyes sparkled with amusement, “Such a beautiful stadium, it looks like a massive watch that fell from the sky.”
The main body of the stadium is a circle, and it was surrounded by gear-shaped auxiliary buildings.
Liam was stunned and looked at Lilly ecstatically, “Even Lilly saw it?!”
The building was inspired by a mechanical watch, and it took him a very long time to design it.
Lilly tilted her head and asked, “Is this designed by you, Uncle Liam?”
“Yes, it is.” Liam finally found someone who understood his design.
Lilly pressed her thumb on Liam’s forehead.
“Good job, Uncle Liam!”
Liam laughed at her childlike spirit.
What Lilly said was too true to his heart.
“A watch that fell from the sky”…Yes, it indicates the stillness and the passing of time…yet humans’ dedication and determination in sportsmanship will never die.
He felt extremely warm. He could not help but give her a big hug.
Pablo woke up from his nap and yawned, “Oh, we’re here. Come, Lilly, let me teach you how to exorcise.”
He raised his hands and took the female spirit out of his jar. He pinched the fingers and middle fingers together and quickly cast a spell on her forehead.
“This is called the working spell. When you cast it, the female spirit will work for you.”
The female ghost who got woken up so early in the morning: “…”
Does it make any sense?
Summoning spirits out to work in broad daylight would get her killed!
Oh wait, she already died. In fact, she died here.
The female spirit looked out of the window depressingly.
“Normally, regular spirits, wandering spirits, and sorrowful ghosts cannot appear during the day. However, vengeful spirits might appear, but they will hide in elevators or mezzanines. On the other hand, malignant spirits are the worst; they can freely roam in broad daylight.”
Lilly nodded, giving the impression that she understood everything.
“Well, as for this ‘Ugly Aunty’… she cannot be exposed to sunlight. When the door opens later, she will vanish.”
“Ugly Aunty,”…
Stop calling me ugly!
Lilly widened her eyes in shock.
Is she going to die once again?
“Let me teach you the Soul Shifting Spell, which involves attaching her to a specific object so that she can survive under the sun,” Pablo explained.
The best object for this purpose would be an umbrella, preferably a black one.
However, this was unrelated to soul-shifting and it would certainly be inconvenient for Lilly to carry an umbrella everywhere she went.
“Let’s find an object first, something that is lightweight and can fly.”
Pablo subconsciously looked at Polly.
Lilly turned in the same direction and muttered, “Lightweight, and can fly…”
Polly sensed a premonition and screamed, “Don’t pick my feathers!”
Pablo was left speechless.
Lilly quickly reassured him, “Okay, okay, we won’t pick your feathers!”
At the same time, Liam looked at Lilly with confusion.
Lilly opened her kitty bag and rummaged through it.
Within a few seconds, her eyes sparkled with excitement!
The female spirit’s face twitched when she saw what Lilly was holding…
Lilly grabbed a plastic bag.
It was the plastic bag that had been used to contain Polly’s feces. It was inappropriate to litter, so she kept the plastic bag in her backpack.
The female spirit stiffened, “You…don’t tell me you’re expecting me to attach myself to this thing?”
Are you serious? How did I end up like this?!
Lilly shook the plastic bag and said, “No, it’s not dirty at all!”
There was a lump of feces in the bag. She then took out a napkin and folded it in half.
