Chapter 145 Caroline's News

two weeks ago.

West Virginia.

Diocese of Tereb.

Caroline drove from New York to this desolate place holding a newspaper with job advertisements circled.

There are people recruiting nurses here, and the weekly salary is quite high, otherwise, no one would come to such a famous ghost place.

The employer is clearly a wealthy man who lives in a manor that occupies a very large area.

As soon as I drove over from the main road, I saw a road sign on it: Davo Manor, private territory, no entry.

A trail leads directly to the manor, and there are tall old trees on both sides, which is very old.

Normally, this kind of place should be managed by special personnel, but what Caroline saw was deserted.

The big iron gate outside the manor couldn't be opened halfway, and the branches and leaves of the big trees next to it stretched out into the middle of the gate, and the car could touch it when entering the gate. In addition, the weather was a bit gloomy when Caroline arrived, matching this desolate and uninhabited scene, It's really a bit eerie.

However, Caroline was already mentally prepared for this. After looking at the manor, she went directly to knock on the door.

and did not respond.

Caroline glanced at the rocking chair that was still shaking in the corridor outside the door, pushed the door, found that the door was unlocked, pushed the door open and walked in.

The room is a bit dark, and there is a statue of the Virgin at the door. In this atmosphere, there is no sense of sanctity, but it adds to the eerie feeling.

The murals on both sides of the living room are also religious themes.

Caroline tied her hair into a ponytail and continued walking inside while shouting.

When I came to the back garden, I saw an old couple.

Fat wife is cutting hair of husband in wheelchair.

"That's what true love looks like."

At this time, a gentle and elegant middle-aged man in a suit came from behind with a box of things in his arms, and said with a smile, "It's like a classic reappearance in a storybook. You must be Caroline, right?"

"Sorry, the door is unlocked, so I just came in."

Caroline and the man in the suit looked at each other and apologized.

"It's ok."

The man in the suit smiled and said, "This house is very big, so it's normal not to hear it. My name is Luke Coleman, a real estate lawyer. We talked on the phone."

"Oh yes."

Caroline suddenly realized.

While the two were chatting, the fat woman kept peeping, her eyes full of scrutiny and indifference.

"The doctor said he was only a month old, and he was about to die."

Real estate lawyer Luke looked at the old man in the wheelchair and explained.

"I know."

Caroline nodded.

This information has been stated on the phone before.

"Valley, she's here."

Luke raised his voice to the fat woman.

"This is Caroline Ellis. She used to work as a nurse at NYU Medical Center. Caroline, this is Valerie Dave."

Luke introduced the two of them.

"Your house is beautiful."

Caroline praised.

The fat woman's eyes flickered, she looked at Luke, then ignored Caroline's greeting, and walked directly into the room.

"I'm sorry, she is in a bad mood, and she is more traditional, she thinks women should dress more modestly."

Luke explained.

Caroline, who was wearing a sling, smiled, and looked at the old man in the wheelchair: "So, he can't speak at all?"

"No, because the whole body is paralyzed by the stroke."

Luke shook his head.

At this moment, the fat woman came over again and muttered: "She is from another place, so she must not understand the rules here, and what's the matter with her accent?"

Luke put his arms around the fat woman and comforted him, "I know you want her to have a southern accent, but I can't find anyone else."

The fat woman looked at Luke, saw him winking at her, then glanced at Caroline from top to bottom, and nodded helplessly: "Okay, but she will definitely not understand the rules here."

"Can't find a nurse, huh?"

Caroline expressed her dissatisfaction and was about to leave immediately.

But under Luke's persuasion, he decided to stay and give it a try.

The fat woman hid by the window of the room the whole time, peeping at everything, and saw Caroline being persuaded by Luke, showing a cold smile.

This is already the fifth female nurse who has applied for the job. She is not satisfied with the other four, and Caroline is actually not satisfied either. She wants a black pearl more, but time is not allowed.

And Luke seemed to like this nurse very much. Thinking of this, the fat woman gave Luke a hard look from the back.

In the end, Caroline chose to accept, moved in, and got a master key.

There are many rooms in this kind of manor, and a series of keys are required. However, as the owner, he has a master key that can unlock all the door locks.

Contrary to her previous refusal, the fat woman unexpectedly gave the key to Caroline.

Caroline took the key and began to take care of Ben Dave, the host who had suffered a stroke and was paralyzed all over the body, but she found many abnormalities.

For example, Ben, who was completely paralyzed, looked at her with horror and expectation, as if he was asking her for help or a warning.

The fat woman looked at her as if she was looking at something, and asked her very rudely if she had any tattoos on her body.

Caroline shot back directly, saying that outsiders couldn't see it.

The fat woman shook her head and left, obviously dissatisfied but helpless.

When I took a shower at night, I felt like someone was peeping.

There are so many rooms in such a large manor, but there is no mirror. Where mirrors should have been hung, there are only traces of hanging mirrors, which have obviously been taken away.

Afterwards, the fat woman first reminded her not to wander around. There were many precious antiques in some rooms, and then asked her to help fetch things intentionally or unintentionally.

As an American, my curiosity about mystery is deeply rooted in my bones.

The fat woman's hidden words aroused Caroline's curiosity completely, secretly took the master key, opened one room after another, and saw many dusty mysterious and weird things.

Shocked, Caroline threatened to leave, and asked the fat woman to tell the story of the manor.

It turned out that there used to be two black wizard servants in this manor. They were a couple, but they dared to teach witchcraft to the son and daughter of the manor owner. In the end, they were hung up and burned alive by the manor owner on the big tree at the gate of the manor. .

But according to legend, their ghosts have never left, and her husband Ben was probably paralyzed by apoplexy because of encountering their ghosts.

In the attic, those mysterious and terrifying things that seemed to be evil rituals were left by the black wizard couple.

Caroline didn't believe it at first, but under the step-by-step guidance of the fat woman, she subconsciously went to a store that specializes in selling these mysterious items and bought some guardian items.

She suspects that it is not the ghost that is evil, but the fat woman herself.

On a night of lightning and thunder, Caroline, who sensed the danger, took Ben to escape, but was chased and killed by the fat woman. In a panic, she had to temporarily abandon Ben and escape to the lawyer Luke for help.

Then she found that Luke was studying elementary real estate law, which reminded her of the ghost possession that the fat woman said, and she was knocked out by Luke and brought back to the manor just as she was about to escape.

After waking up, I saw the fat woman and Luke looking at her with a sinister smile...
