Reborn ghost seeing lady is pampered by her ex husband - Chapter 61

Chapter 61: Bad rubbish.

Katherine was packing an attitude when she arrived at the Black Ghost Cafe. She looked around disdainfully, appearing to be disgusted by the place. Then, she smiled dryly and asked the manager if she could speak to the cafe owner.

Unfortunately, Rosett informed her that the owner wasn’t there yet which seemed to displease Katherine.

“Can I call her and tell her that you want to see her? I can make an appointment for you if it’s urgent. What’s your name please and?” Rosett stopped speaking when Katherine raised her index finger to shut her up because her phone was ringing.

“Shhhh quiet.” She rudely ordered.

Rosset curled her upper lip and stared at the impolite camouflaged woman, she knew her type pretty well because such customers usually came around, rich and arrogant dressed in disguise such that no one would identify them and know that they sought for the services of a shaman.

After answering her call, Katherine walked out without saying another word to Rossett who sneered.

“What a rude woman! good riddance to bad rubbish.”

She was about to sit down when the front door was opened and more bad rubbish walked in. It was bad rubbish to Rosette because it was none other than the Gabriels who she had seen in pictures on Phoebe’s phone. She was already caught up on their lack of a familial relationship to Phoebe. The Saxon spirit and Connie were always gossiping about Phoebe’s life out in the open.

She didn’t even bother to pretend and fake friendliness. The sneer on her face was loud and clear.

“Hello, welcome to the Black Ghost Cafe.” she bit out angrily.

She turned up the air conditioning, then got up from behind the counter and walked to the open area as they were already sitting down. Rosette acted as if she had no idea who they were, treating them like ordinary customers.

“What would you like to have? Before making your order, please know that our cafe has cash before snacking policy.”

“Don’t you recognize us young lady, we are Phoebe’s parents.” Elizabeth who was perturbed looked at Rosette with a slightly agitated look.

“Really…” Rosette responded. “Hmmm, i have never seen you here before.”

The couple looked uncomfortable, and you would think someone was holding a gun to their head and forcing them to sit inside the cafe.

“Why is this place so cold?” Elizabeth asked.

Rosette lowered her voice and made it whispery, like she was telling a ghost story around a campfire. “Because our clients are mostly ghosts. They tend to suck energy and feed on the souls of humans who….”

Elizabeth squealed, and stood up, pushing the chair to the ground. “Let’s go and wait from outside, i don’t want to stay in this damned place any longer.” She complained to her husband.

Aaron shook his head and disagreed. “I won’t move until we see this girl. She dared to cause so much trouble that Ruth ended up in a drunken state and even fainted. She already has a weak constitution, i don’t understand why Phoebe can’t give in and leave David alone.”

Unwilling, Elizabeth turned to Rosette.

“Pick up the chair, don’t you see that it has fallen down?” She shouted at her.

“Tch!, you pushed it down and you want me to pick it up for you as if you are royalty. Lady, these chairs cost three hundred fifty dollars each. If you have damaged it then you must pay for it.”

With a warning, Rosette bent down and picked up the chair. She saw two old scratch marks that had always been there.

“Look, look, see what you have done, there are two scratch marks.” She accused. “Pay for the damage or i am going to call the police right now.”

“What?” Elizabeth frowned. “Fine i damaged it, and so what? Didn’t you hear me tell you that we are your boss’s parents? One word from me can get you fired from this job. ”

She pushed Rosette away and sat down while mumbling angrily. “No wonder Phoebe is not sensible anymore, she keeps company with rude people like you.”

“What are you waiting for to serve us tea or coffee?” Aaron barked at Rosette.

Rosette scoffed and looked up, raising he eyes so that she could roll them while trying her best not to accidentally blurt out the truth about their being fake parents. She didn’t want to spill the beans but the couple was just so infuriating.

“Where is Phoebe by the way? Go in there and tell her to come out right away.” Aaron gestured at Rosette dismissively.

“My boss is not around, you can wait around as long as you want but it’s all useless since she is not planning to come in today. Also, we don’t have any drinks or snacks, everything is sold out.”

Rosette turned around and walked away from them. The ghost seeing glasses were on top of her head and she lowered them, then gestured at Sylvester to deal with the Gabriels. As long as the ghosts scared the couple, they would soon run away.

The chairs started moving around on their own and ‘wooooo’ sounds which people associated with ghosts started coming from the air above the Gabriels. Meanwhile, Rosette was already texting Phoebe to warn her about the sudden visit from her fake parents.

Phoebe was just driving into the parking when she got a 911 text from Rosette. It was code for trouble and it was followed up by a picture of her parents.

Phoebe didn’t bother to park her car, she just turned it around and continued driving all the way to the farmer’s mall.

She had every intention of avoiding the Gabriels until she was certain that she can talk to them without punching one of them in the face. Whatever it was that they wanted to talk about had to wait. Phoebe parked the car, reached for her phone which was ringing loudly.

It was David informing her of the venue of their date. The mi amor restaurant was the same place that they had gone to on their first date in her past life. He also pointed out that he would be picking her.

The phone began to ring again, it was her father calling. Phoebe sneered, switched off the phone and stepped out of the car.

She walked straight to the seed shop. It was a small shop located at the extreme corner of the mall. The old uncle stood up the moment he saw her. “How can I help you young lady?” He asked politely.

“I want the following seeds and herbs, some are rare but am sure that you have them in stock like you usually do.” She handed him the list and looked around, studying the new seeds and herbs that had been brought in.

The old uncle packed, weighed and sealed them. He then gave her dandelion flowers and seeds as a bonus. “It has very many healing properties but has become very rare lately.”

The Saxon spirit nodded. ” He’s right, you can make liver cleansing tonics, helps to fight inflammation and many more. The flower, leaves, roots all have benefits buy more of it.”

Phoebe was already aware the benefits of the roots, leaves and flowers. She thanked him, paid and left the shop. Since she didn’t know when the Gabriels would be giving up, she decided to drive straight home and begin preparing for the date.
