Reborn ghost seeing lady is pampered by her ex husband - Chapter 53

Chapter 53: The uncanny resemblance.

“Luke? Andre?” David asked casually because he knew the two men. Other than Collin Mayfair, he had a cordial relationship with the two brothers.

[Oh great, more of Ruth’s saviors to the rescue. I am getting a lot of unwanted visitors lately]

A sharp wince escaped Phoebe’s lips when she saw the two men, she assumed that the Mayfair boys were here to warn her to stay away from their sister but if they tried her patience today she was ready to show them what a phony their sister was.

Connie let out an excited scream. “Oh my God Andre Mayfair! He’s my dream man, I have a super crush on him, look at his fair skin, pink lips he’s gorgeous. Sister please get me an autograph please.” She fluttered her eyelashes continuously but Phoebe remained unfazed afterall she had never been his fan.

Phoebe who was uninterested in taking to the Mayfair boys assuming that they would be just like Collin. She moved passed David and continued walking in the direction of the cafe. She however noticed that Luke was gawking at her, if she wasn’t mistaken she thought she saw his jaw drop.

She wasn’t wrong because Luke continued staring at Phoebe until her frame disappeared. He shook his head in disbelief, wondering if he was seeing things. Being a doctor, he didn’t believe in things like reincarnation or doppelgangers and other mystery stuff but what he had noticed melted his knees.

“Who the hell is that?” He asked David who was chatting with Andre.

“Oh, that.” David smiled broadly. “She is my very good friend, partner, and so many other things.”

His voice held a double meaning, not saying things outright but implying them. This was because he had seen Luke gawking at Phoebe and he wanted to draw a line quickly.

The two men put one and two together and concluded that David’s friend had to be the infamous Phoebe.

Andre smiled knowingly at his brother but the smile quickly fell when he saw the confused expression on his face.

“What is it? You look like you have seen a ghost.” He nudged him using his elbow.

“More like a clone of sorts.” Luke whispered and looked at the cafe, his curiosity about Phoebe at its peak. His stomach growled loudly attracting attention from David and Andre.

“Hey i am starving, I barely ate anything today because I had a lot of patients to see today.” He informed the two men that were sort of curiously looking at him

David slapped him on the back once. “You my friend are in luck, let’s get you something to eat.” He pulled on his hand.

He was at ease with the Mayfair boys because they had all grown up together, were close in age and went to the same schools.

Luke and Andre who wanted to turn down his offer because they had other plans in mind, plans of talking to Phoebe. They were stunned when David took them directly into the Black ghost cafe, the same place that they were going to.

“Hold up David, This is Phoebe’s place….Ruth’s friend I mean. It’s the ghost place, right?” Andre asked only for David to nod.

“Ruth said that this woman was throwing herself at you…..” Andre was interrupted by David who spoke loudly.

“What? That’s not true. If anything am the one throwing myself at her. Listen boys you know that your sister has had these feelings for me for the longest time but I have never led her on. I made it clear to you all that whatever she is hoping for is never going to happen. All i have ever seen her as is a little sister, basically one of the guys.” He grimaced, not wanting to tell them that he didn’t even consider her as a little sister anymore, much less a friend. “I am sorry but your sister is crazy.”

“No offense taken.” Andre sat in the chair and leaned back. In as much as he loved his sister, he had his fair share of crazy fan girls swooning over him, he understood where David’s point was coming from.

It was true that Ruth was obsessed with David and no matter how many times she was told to let it go, she wouldn’t. Whatever pain she was suffering now was a self inflicted wound.

“But still I heard she’s a trickster.” Andre mentioned.

“And i am a playboy.” David shrugged.

He and Andre laughed, even sharing a fistbump because they were birds of a feather. Ande too was a playboy, a famous one who delighted in his wayward ways.

“Not anymore though, i am officially reformed.” David added.

“Your family won’t accept her.” Luke reminded him.

“Let me worry about that.” David received a call from his office and excused himself to pick the call.

Phoebe on the other hand stood behind the counter making coffee for David. She noticed the Mayfair boy come in and sit down like customers. Pretty soon she started to feel uncomfortable because Luke kept gawking at her.

[Is this their strategy, to stare at me to death?]

“Maybe you have charmed him too.” Connie added giggles to her words.

Phoebe snorted, “Yeah right.”

The Saxon spirit was also interested in the Mayfair boys. “Let me go over there and listen in on whatever they are talking about.”

Within a split second, it was hovering over them.

“Luke? Luke? LUKE!” Andre raised his voice startling his brother whose entire focus was on Phoebe.

“What?” Luke rubbed his eyes and shook his head.

“You are staring, it’s kinda awkward and rude.”

“Don’t you see it, Andre?” Luke whispered furiously.

“See what?”

“That Phoebe girl looks exactly like grandma in her younger days, the only difference is that she has red hair and grandma is blond.”

Andre waved his hand to dismiss his statement. “Grandma was an unmatched beauty, i am not saying that Phoebe isn’t but I see little to no resemblance.”

Luke insisted that the resemblance between the two is uncanny. “How is this even possible? Maybe she’s a long distant cousin or something. I am telling you Andre, there is something here, I can feel it.”

Andre nodded his head and laughed. “I’ll need to see old photos of grandma to believe it.”

David joined them again just when Phoebe and Rossett were bringing the coffee and snacks to the table.

“Join us, I would like to introduce you to my friends.” David requested nicely but Phoebe only accepted because the spirit told her to.

“I need you to distract one of them because I need a piece of his hair, you need to do a DNA test or blood spell whatever works for you.” She pointed at Luke and said, This one thinks you look like their grandmother.”

Phoebe was already suspicious about the connection between her, Ruth, the Gabriel’s and the Mayfairs. Hearing that one of the Mayfair boys had noticed something too sparked a fire in her heart and she sat down quickly.

[Could it be?], she wondered.

When she sat David introduced her to the Mayfair boys, she was surprised to see that they were polite to her unlike Collin. Phoebe took a liking to them immediately, especially Andre. He was funny and somewhat adorable.

Luke was more quiet and also seemed to prefer looking at her more than talking to her. If they happened to be her brothers, Andre was definitely gunning for the position of favorite brother.
