The Spirit House(3)

In the past, this was an evil way to punish thieves.

They had stolen the life-extending money and consumed it. Eventually, they had been imprisoned in the Spirit House to work for the owner and the spirits forever. Their life was nothing but only a tool for the owners to be blessed.

I read the old woman's explanation and couldn't help but curse inwardly.

I thought Ms. Chambers was kind to me! I should have known it! How could a date I met online truly love me and give me such a large sum of money for no reason? It turned out that she just wanted to enslave me by keeping me in the Spirit House forever so that she didn't need to pay any of my salaries!

Everything made sense now.

Fiona bought cigarettes but refused to pay and even asked me to treat her friends.

The pretty lady stopped buying cigarettes from me after she heard that I didn't want to die. Later, she also asked me to treat her.

It turned out that both of them wanted to save me!
