Reborn ghost seeing lady is pampered by her ex husband - Chapter 176

Chapter 176: Trouble with kindness.

In the past, David was a kind person, he used his own money to sponsor the education of many underprivileged children around the country. it wasn’t surprising that he had given Nicholas a scholarship. But to her, Nicholas was undeserving, as much of a white eyed wolf like his sister.

“The world takes advantage of kind people, i hope that you keep that at the back of your mind David.” Phoebe told him.

“Shortie, you should remember those words as well because you were recently kidnapped while trying to help a little boy.”

It was one moment of weakness and it had served as a kind reminder to her, not that she was willing to admit it to him. She stretched her hand and picked the blue envelope that Evelyn had dropped by. Inside was an invitation to a private birthday dinner tomorrow evening.

“I had actually forgotten that tomorrow is her birthday, i have not bought her a gift. Any ideas Saxon?” Phoebe moved her mouth to one side as she thought.

“Mmm, a Regius sports car maybe, anyway, we are going together. I am going to be your plus one, right? I’ll pick you up at lets say 7:30pm.”

[Is he crazy!]

Phoebe was still stuck on him mentioning about gifting a Regius sports car. The cheapest cost seven million but he was mentioning it so casually. Rich people were surely built different. She could not afford to squander seven million on a birthday gift, she had a business to run.

“I will give her something from my jewelry collection. And as for picking me up forget that, my brothers have been invited so I’ll be going with them. We can meet there. It’s time for me to work.”

She walked up to him, forced him to stand up and then pushed him out of her office, stealing some energy in the process. Then, she settled down to see her clients, only two were waiting.

A woman entered her office first. She was polite in her way of greeting as she took a seat opposite her.

“What can i do for you?”

The woman clenched her hands and took a deep breath.

“I want to divorce my husband.” she blurted out.

Phoebe blinked thrice, finding herself a little lost. What did she have to do with divorce?

“Miss, err..this is not a lawyer’s office. I think you came to the wrong building. When you get out of the cafe, keep walking right until…..”

“No.” the woman blurted loudly. “I want to divorce but i cannot do it without knowing if my future will be better after i leave that man. That is what i want you to tell me.”

Phoebe looked at her forehead, eyes and facial structure. She had been learning to read faces from the Saxon spirit.

“Your forehead is broad and smooth, your eyebrows are well-spaced and thick, the eyes are bright and clear. Your chin is round and prominent, your earlobes have flesh, the overall symmetry of your face is balanced and indicative of good fortune.”

The woman had no idea why Phoebe had been describing her facial features but when she heard good fortune, she lit up.

“You have past your tribulations, you are going to find happiness and some moderate wealth.”

The woman paid Phoebe in cash and left the office with a smile. On her way out, she bought one of the new good luck charms and a protection talisman.

Phoebe pressed a button under her desk which normally told Rosset to send in the next client. Rosset entered the office and asked Phoebe to step out, it concerned the next client.

Phoebe followed her behind the snack counter.

“What is with the mystery?”

“Pheebs, see that man over there.” She jutted her chin in the direction of the second client. “He is the next client and requests that you follow him to his employers residence. Problem is he won’t give me his name or tell me who his employer is.”

The Saxon spirit scanned the man, he didn’t look dangerous in any way.

David was eavesdropping so took a picture of the man sneakily and sent it to Roxanne at Alfa security. She was in charge of all technology in the firm, she was also a very good hacker that could access all data bases including those of the government.

“Phoebe give me a minute, let me find out who he is before you say anything to him, much less leave with him.”

David advised and Phoebe agreed, there was nothing wrong with making him wait a little longer. After Timmy and the kidnappers, a little caution could not hurt.

Roxanne sent all the information within a minute. The man was named Joseph shore and he was one of the many drivers of the Verdemont family.

“We can go and talk to him now.” David showed Phoebe the information he had received.

“We?” Phoebe looked at him quizzically.

“Yes we, remember we are life partners and I know a thing or two about the Verdemonts so i am useful in this case. They despise people that don’t come from the same social status, knowing that you have a Saxon in your corner will give you an edge.” He lifted his chin like he was God’s gift to her.

Phoebe sniggered. “You keep forgetting Saxon, i am a Mayfair and my family is far richer than the Verdemonts if i am not mistaken. The Saxon are only richer by a few billions which is like a nickel.” She spoke as she walked to the table where Joseph was sitted by herself.

Her words however made him to let out a loud chuckle, David had no idea that Phoebe was a stubborn and funny woman. In the past they were always so busy and she was quiet, introverted, like a turtle in a shell constantly. Despite liking each other, they never took time to talk and understand one another.

“Mr. Joseph Shore?” Phoebe asked politely.

The man blinked rapidly, he had no idea how she had known who he was.

Phoebe smiled. “You shouldn’t be surprised, i am a shaman that knows everything. I know that your employer is a Verdemont….”

“Shhhh!” Joseph’s eyes darted around just to make sure that no one heard her say his employers name out loud.

“Is there a problem?” Phoebe asked.

Connie snickered. “It’s another rich person that does not want to be seen consulting a shaman as if that would be the end of them. Sister, charge them the maximum price, nothing less that five…no…ten million.”

“You have become a money grubber.” The Saxon spirit knocked Connie on the head.

The girl pouted and stomped her right foot like a spoiled little miss.

“You don’t call sister a money grubber, i am just like her. Why don’t you knock her head too? Hmph!”

She vanished into the magic space after throwing her daily tantrum. She did not even stay there for a two seconds and returned because she was still eager to know what the big secret was.

Joseph cleared his throat because he noticed Phoebe was barely paying attention to him.

“Please excuse the secrecy, I am under strict instructions that not a third ear should know of this.”

“That’s too bad because my ears have already heard something.” David stepped forward he was tired of listening in from a far.
