Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet?

There was nothing wrong with the windows, including the balcony outside. Nothing was there other than some plants.

To be sure, Philip even sent someone out over the balcony rails to check outside, and no one was hiding underneath, either.

From the looks of it, they shouldn’t have seen anything else.

Jessica was in disbelief as well.

“How’s that possible? I heard it. A woman crying, just crying and crying, like someone’s wringing her neck. How – how could there be no one there?”

She walked in a trance over to the balcony, checking front and back in a panic.

But in reality, in a space this small, anyone hidden would have been found already. It was impossible for them to have hidden until now.

“Was it… really a ghost…”

“What do you mean ghost? I don’t believe that nonsense!”

Philip flared up and yanked the curtains down. At that moment, a small black object fell from above.

Followed quickly by the sound of sobbing.

Everyone froze.

Almost petrified.

They stared at the little object on the ground. After a while, they finally understood that the crying had come from this thing.

Aleena stooped over and picked it up. It was a mini recorder.

Someone had recorded the sound in earlier and set it on a timer. That’s why Jessica had heard the intermittent sobbing.

“Bastard!”

She slammed the device on the ground, her expression turning ugly.

“Who was it? Who put something like this in Jessica’s room?”

The servants who’d followed inside saw what was going on and turned white in a panic.

They hurriedly shook their heads, denying their involvement.
