Reborn ghost seeing lady is pampered by her ex husband - Chapter 540

Chapter 540: Phoebe’s secret is on the move.

Somewhere in the city, Luna and Luke were on a date and part of that date had taken them to a children’s baby shop in one of the high-end malls. Luna was cooing over every tiny shoe and clothing, dangling them before Luke before dumping them in a shopping cart that he was pushing.

The cart was filled to the maximum, but they were not even close to finished. Luna had yet to visit the larger half of the store.

“More shoes! It’s the same pink shoe Luna!” he exclaimed when she added another pair of pink shoes with a big bow.

Luna held it up and clarified the difference between the shoes. “This bow is fur, the other is fur with diamonds and the first one was a ribbon with gold thread. They are different.”

Luke groaned. It was his night off; they could have been having sex right now. Why were they shopping for Collin’s child? The question made him freeze and suddenly he realized that there had been no confirmation of the gender of his brother’s child. Shanna wanted a baby shower were everyone would find out at the same time.

Luke’s eyes darted to Luna’s stomach, and he frowned. “Luna, whose baby are we shopping for?”

“Phoebe’s of course.” she answered without thought. “We are shopping for baby Star.”

“Phoebe’s what now?” Luke bellowed.

Luna eyes met Luke’s and gasped. “You have no idea, Oh my God! How is my information route better than yours? Arrow is like David’s best friend, and he knows. He told his sister Missy who told Sabrina, and she told me.”

Luke held back his response, he digested the fact that his sister was pregnant, and the family was not aware. He thought about his parents and how they would react and recalled Phoebe’s words when they found out that Shanna was pregnant.

It seemed she had been giving them a hint.

“I am going to kill them.” Luke muttered. He also realized that they would be needing another cart because he had things to buy, pink, red, white, yellow and every color of cute girly things in the shop.

The morning of the next day, Phoebe woke up with a mission of her own. While David was still fast asleep, she stealthily stepped out of the bed and sat on the soft carpeted floor with both legs crossed in a meditating position.

“Let’s see where you are hiding my dear sweet sister, it has been a while.” Fingers twisting, she muttered to no one but herself.

Like a professional that had done this many times, Phoebe made a connection with the tracking worm inside of Ruth. Indeed, it had hatched into an adult. She connected to it spiritually; within no time she had found the location of Ruth Gabriel. However, her findings were far from what she was expecting.

“What the fuck!” She cursed loudly, springing up from the ground, eyes wide with shock.

Her loud voice which could have woken the dead ripped David from his sleep. He reached under the pillow for the gun which he kept there. “Pheebs! What is going on?” He squinted his eyes, lifting the upper part of his body, armed and ready to shoot. There was no intruder, so he put the gun away.

This did not mean that there was no trouble brewing in the air. It was on rare occasions that he heard Phoebe curse, and it was mostly not a good thing.

Pacing back and forth, Phoebe stood still when she heard his voice. “She is here David, that bitch is on the grounds of the tower.” A breathless hope threaded through her speech.

With an impatient kick, David freed himself from the blankets. “Who are you talking about?” David fast approached her.

“Ruth! The tracking worm that I put inside her soul hatched fully and it shows her current location to be here, at the tower.” Phoebe told him, eyes widening.

David leaped out of bed pulled on some casual pants and t-shirt quickly. When it came to Ruth, there could be no delays because she was not in the healthiest mental state. “Ruth!!! the cuckoo Ruth!! Are you certain? Damn it! All this time that we have been looking for her in Silver nation and it turns out she had already returned to the country and arrived at the tower. Somehow this makes sense and no sense at the same time. Let’s get her, we need to know who is helping her because that person is the one behind our death and downfall of our families in the past life.” He confessed to her.

“The hidden enemy?” Phoebe said, fear seeping into her bones. This was an enemy with magic and he or she was ruthless. She still recalled the horrific images of death of the men that had broken Ruth out of Lockhart.

Halfway to the door, David spun around and looked at her. “Pheebs, let us go.” He urged her loudly, but she remained put which confused him further.

“Don’t we need a plan?” She questioned him.

Shaking his head, David’s lips curved into a deliberate but calming arc. “We will after we have captured and taken her to Alfa security.” He stretched out his hand to her.

Phoebe who felt that his answer was good enough, run to him, taking his hand. They followed the tracker which led them to the guest houses near the servant quarters.

Then suddenly she lost the connection with the tracker.

“Dammit I lost it; she must be using a spell to shadow it.” Phoebe reported to him.

“Shit!” David’s furious kick sliced at empty space.

The sudden sound of footsteps echoing behind them caught their attention, Maureen and Rekha came in sight.

“Why are you guys here?” Phoebe questioned suspiciously.

It was more than clear that she was not in a sunny mood. Then again, it was winter and there was no sun.

“Well Good morning to you too. Not that I had a great night with all the nightmares of me fighting demons in a supernatural war that we were losing.” Rekha grumbled.

“I am sober now, if anyone is asking.” Maureen chipped in. “Why are you two under dressed for this weather?”

Phoebe let out a frustrated sigh. “It is a weird morning, that worm that I put in Ruth, placed her somewhere around here then I suddenly lost its connection.” A growl vibrated in her throat before she even spoke.

“Here? Like here at the tower?” Maureen’s mouth dropped open for a fleeting second, her eyes studied the surroundings. “If she was here, I am sure that people would recognize her and arrest her immediately. She is Persona Non Grata among the founding families.” Her quizzical eyes stared at David.

Rekha snapped her fingers. “Perhaps she sneaked in, and they have not seen her yet.” Even she suddenly felt that her suggestion was ridiculous. After Dickson’s death, security had been tightened even more on the grounds of the tower. “Nobody needs to say it, I can hear how stupid I sound because that is close to impossible with all this security.” She retracted her own words.
