Reborn ghost seeing lady is pampered by her ex husband - Chapter 252

Chapter 252: Saving Valerie__3

Even though she had considered shooting the man and wished for a gun of her own, Phoebe found herself frowning at the sight of all the guns. It was like she was back in the Elithera compound. She was determined to see to it that this situation did not end like that one.

“Put down your guns.” she ordered in a calm voice.

Surprisingly, her order was immediately obeyed by Luna’s men. David’s men on the other hand hesitated because their boss still had his own gun out.

Phoebe put her right hand over David’s armed right one and she shook her head.

“Babe, you can’t kill him, there are many things we do not know yet, like that girl outside and her connection to this. Valerie was set up by her best friend, we need answers. Listen to me and put your gun away.”

David lowered his hand and his men did the same.

The man loudly exhaled in relief and he sunk to the ground entirely, sitting down on the grass.

Phoebe did not waste a moment and she started her questioning.

“Hey, i will not repeat my questions, if you lie to me i will tell my man to shoot you. We will begin with your kneecaps, ears, toes and keep going until we get the answers we want.”

Phoebe paused, opened her bag and gave grandma Mayfair a bottle of water asking her to feed the water to Valerie.

“Who is Belinda and how do you know her?” she asked the man.

“She is my sister’s child, i am her uncle.”

“It’s true.” The Saxon spirit confirmed. “We don’t need to waste our truth telling talismans on him.”

Shaking her head in disbelief, Phoebe requested Andre to bring Belinda in. Andre was so glad to participate and he did as Phoebe ordered with excitement.

When he brought Belinda in, he threw her to the ground besides her uncle. The young woman scrambled to get out but one of David’s men pointed a gun at her and she screamed.

Belinda tried to hide behind her uncle but he was also in survival mode and he would not let her use him as a shield so she ended up beside him.

“Is this scumbag your uncle?” Phoebe asked.

The girl rolled her eyes and firmly folded her lips together, exposing her unwillingness to talk. It seemed as if her fear of the gun was now gone.

“Beat her.” Phoebe ordered Sylvester.

Connie pushed Sylvester aside and she gladly took on the role of punish, giving Belinda three consecutive slaps.

Belinda screamed in fear, looking around with wide skittish eyes. “What the hell is that?” Her eyes darted nervously to every corner.

“Ghosts and you if do not answer my question I will let them play with you.” Phoebe squatted down, smiled viciously while looking into Belinda’s eyes. She released some of her yin energy, making Belinda physically uncomfortable, doubling the fright she was feeling.

“Now before i really get pissed off, answer my question, Is this son of a bitch really your uncle?” Phoebe asked through pursed lips.

Beads of sweat clung on Belinda’s brow despite the cold. She nodded vehemently.

“Yes he is.”

Her uncle laughed triumphantly. “See, i am innocent in all this and i am willing to tell you everything so please let me go. Belinda brought me here asking me to sleep with her friend such that she can contract HIV but because I am a good person, I deliberated on this and decided not to do it. When you came in, i was about to leave.”

He told a desperate lie to save himself, he regretted not backing away when he saw the white hair. In fact, he asked Belinda about her friend’s hair color and joked about her being a Saxon but Belinda assured him that it was a dyed white for the music carnival.

Now that David Saxon was here, he could see that Belinda had lied to him.

“It was this bitch, she planned it all.” he pushed Belinda out.

David’s anger mounted to its peak, he began to punch the man over and over until he saw blood.

“You bastard! you are brave enough to touch a Saxon. Infect her with HIV deliberately! You are looking for death.”

On the other hand Phoebe could resist the urge to slap Belinda. “Isn’t she your friend? How can you plan to get her infected?”

Even grandma Mayfair got in a slap because she was so angry and shocked. Never before, had she witnessed such a thing.

“You want to infect an innocent young girl with an incurable virus Intentionally? My God! you are pure evil, you are crazy.”

Belinda let out an evil laughter. “Innocent? Friend? That evil bitch is not my friend! She stabbed me in the back in the worst possible way!” She lamented

Every one was alarmed by how brazen Belinda was. Was she shamelessly trying to defend her horrifying actions? No matter what Valerie had done, this was surely not the solution.

Before anyone could ask her anymore questions, they heard wincing from where Valerie was sleeping. The young woman opened her eyes slowly and David rushed to her side.

“It hurts so much.” She spoke softly.

“Val? Val? Are you okay?” David called her name persistently.

Valerie had a a slight headache and her body was feeling unnatural__heavy and unfamiliar. She pieced bits of her memory together but she could not remember her uncle David coming to the music carnival with her.

She sat up and David helped her take two sips of water from the bottle grandma Mayfair handed over.

“Uncle David? Why….How are you here?”

David curled his upper lip, still furious even at his niece but first he had to make sure that she was okay. “Are you alright?”

“Of course! Why wouldn’t I be?” Valarie responded her curious eyes shifted from one unfamiliar face to the other. She caught a glimpse of some people on the ground but the view was covered by David’s bodyguards so she didn’t pay attention to it.

“Thank God.” David whispered. “Now can you explain what the hell you are doing at this carnival? Does Thomas know that you are here? Where are your bodyguards And why in God’s name are you hanging out with the wrong crowd?” Came one question after the other

“Uncle I came here with my friend just to have fun, it’s really not a big deal and I promise that I wasn’t doing anything wrong.” Valerie smiled innocently. “My friend went out to bring me some fruits, i think i fell asleep….”

“You poor thing, this girl you call your friend is nothing but a cunning snake that you should stay away from.” Grandma Mayfair gave Belinda a venomous look.

She gestured for the bodyguards to step aside and the two people sitting on the ground were revealed.

Valarie’s brows shot high up in a mixture of shock and surprise. “Old lady Mayfair, why are saying that about my best friend? Why is she on the ground? I don’t know what is going on but Belinda is a nice person, I can vouch for her.”

She stared apologetically at her friend who looked away in return.

“Uncle David, i apologize for whatever Belinda had done, she really is nice, i promise. Please, give her a chance to explain the misunderstanding. Bells, how did you offend my uncle?”

“Val, you are too innocent for your own good. You are so blind that you are pleading for your enemy. You like her so much but i am one hundred percent that she feels the opposite about you.” David stated firmly, his eyes shot lasers at Belinda as he spoke.
