Layla stared calmly at the skull floating in the air, which only she could see.
Layla said coldly, "I know you're an evil spirit. Why are you bothering me?"
The skull laughed out loud. "That's naturally because I like you. I like young, pretty girls."
Layla was stunned, but then she realized that this couldn't be the reason! This evil spirit was clearly teasing her!
"Hahahaha!" Seeing that Layla did not have much reaction to its teasing, the evil spirit declared viciously again, "It's true that I like you. It's just that what I like to see is you foolish humans being in so much pain that you wish you were dead. The more pain you are in, the happier I am!"
"Then, how can you let me go?" Layla felt a chilly sensation inside her heart, but she still tried her best to remain calm.
"Hahahaha, this is fun! You stupid woman, you're actually making a vain attempt to negotiate with me."
The skull thought for a moment before continuing, "A negotiation isn't impossible either. If you can fulfill my three requests, I'll consider letting you go."
Layla didn't expose the loophole that this skull had deliberately left with its words. "Speak. What requests do you have?"
"Hahahaha." The skull flew out of the window, stirring up a gust of wind. The next second, it appeared again with a kitten caught in its green flames.
"What are you doing?!" Layla looked at the little kitten struggling in pain and questioned the evil spirit angrily.
"My first condition is simple. I want to see what this cat looks like inside."
"As long as you dissect this cat in front of me, you'll be considered to have fulfilled it."
Upon hearing this evil spirit's request, Layla's stomach churned just thinking about that bloody scene.
"How can you be so shameless and bloodthirsty?!" Layla sat up from the bed and reached her hand out to save the cat.
The evil spirit laughed loudly. Seeing that Layla was about to call for help, it immediately locked the room from the inside!
The green flames expanded in an instant. Layla picked up the baseball bat by the head of the bed and kept swinging it around. She fought off the invasion of the green flames as she crawled towards the door.
In the living room, Darren heard that something wasn't right in the room and walked over, thinking to check on Layla's situation. However, he realized that the door to the room could not be opened again no matter what!
As soon as Andre arrived at the party, he realized that the president was anxiously knocking on the door of a room. From time to time, cries could even be heard from inside the room. "Layla, Layla, are you all right? Layla…"
"Layla…" Andre's chest tightened after hearing that name. He strode briskly to the president's side, pulled the anxious Darren away, and kicked open the door to the room.
The room was pitch-black. Andre took the lead and rushed in. He caught a kitten that fell from the sky and turned on the light in the room smoothly.
Under the warm and bright light, Andre saw the girl's features clearly. It was that beautiful young lady whom he had been thinking about day and night!
However, Andre really had not expected Layla to be the president's daughter!
Their eyes collided and intertwined in the air.
Layla realized that the man who had forced the door open was that man who had caused her car accident!
His face was really too handsome, so much so that it was difficult for Layla to forget it even if she wanted to!
Right at this moment, the green flames of the evil spirit also engulfed Layla's entire body!
Layla looked at the main culprit who had caused her to be in this position. She fought against that cold and bone-devouring sensation, and struggled to throw herself on top of Andre with all her might.
Initially, she wanted to teach this man a lesson with her own hands out of anger.
Unexpectedly, the moment she pounced onto him, she felt her entire body lighten all of a sudden. That cold feeling receded like a tide, and even her legs—which had been numb the whole time—seemed to have regained a bit of sensation!
Layla was overjoyed. She had made the right gamble. It seemed like the evil spirit had been led to this man!
However, after Layla was helped up from Andre's body by her family members, that cold and painful feeling reappeared in both her legs.
Especially the place where those five finger marks were. Layla raised her pants to take a look and felt that the purple print had enlarged a little again!
What was going on?! She had clearly gotten better just now!
At this moment, Layla noticed that the evil spirit—which had been very arrogant all along—was actually staying obediently in a corner of the room now. Moreover, its flames were actually quivering slightly, revealing a look of fear.
Recalling the scene just now, Layla suddenly thought of something. Could it be that the evil spirit did not dare to approach this man?!
