Our rooms are on upstairs. You are not allowed to go to the second floor.&#8221; Stella Ainsworth said, walked to the room on the edge and said, &#8220;You can live in this room.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Mom, isn&#8217;t this room haunted?&#8221; Emma Johnson said deliberately and blinked.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Bella smiled she knew Emma Johnson&#8217;s mentality. If there was a haunted room in this villa, Richard Johnson wouldn&#8217;t live in this villa.    <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Since someone really wanted to live here, so I can&#8217;t help it,&#8221; Stella said proudly.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Bella entered the room and closed the door. She made a visual inspection of the size of the door lock. She had to live in this room, and she didn&#8217;t want other people to have free access to her room. She decided to change the lock. She wanted to buy bedsheets, quilts covers, pillows and so on.    <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Bella went shopping.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Emma Johnson stared at Bella&#8217;s back. &#8220;Mom, why Dad agreed to let Bella stay here? She&#8217;s not our family.&#8221;   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;Do you think your father loves her? She has your father&#8217;s weakness. I think she has blackmailed your father. She wanted to come back, and your father has no way. We will not let her stay peacefully.&#8221; Stella Ainsworth patted Emma Johnson&#8217;s hand and said with relief.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;This is not it. I wanted to kill her, mom. I want David Wilson to come to our house for dinner, and then I want him to stay for tonight.&#8221; When she said the second half of the sentence, Emma Johnson shook her head.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;You, how can you let a man stay at home for a night? Since you have a relationship with David, I think now you two should get married. Are you pregnant?&#8221; Stella Ainsworth glanced at Emma Johnson&#8217;s Belly.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;No, I am not. At tonight&#8217;s dinner, you talk to David about this. And this way we can make Bella feel miserable and jealous.&#8221; Emma Johnson said and laughed.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   *   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Bella bought a lot of things and came back. When she came back to Richard Johnson&#8217;s house, David Wilson was also there. She entered and saw David Wilson.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   They looked at each other.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   David Wilson kept looking at Bella, but Bella moved her eyes away as if she didn&#8217;t know David Wilson at all.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   The servants moved everything to Bella&#8217;s room. The worker sent by the shopkeeper changed Bella&#8217;s room lock.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;I don&#8217;t know why she came to my house. She really has no shame.&#8221; Emma Johnson said in a loud voice.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Bella heard it, but she ignored and went to her room.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;She is weird. I&#8217;m afraid she&#8217;ll kill us in the middle of the night. Mom, I&#8217;m so scared. We should manage all the keys well. Remember to lock the door before sleeping at night.&#8221; Emma Johnson said again.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   &#8220;It&#8217;s all under control. I&#8217;ll call your dad and ask him when he&#8217;ll be back for dinner.&#8221; Stella Ainsworth said and called Richard.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Bella glanced at Emma Johnson, raised the corner of her mouth, and her face had a meaningful smile as if she will really kill them.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Emma Johnson&#8217;s heart thumped. She decided to find a way to get rid of Bella.   <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>   Bella went to her room, turned on the computer, checked some information on the Internet, and finally, she saw found that person&#8217;s current address.   <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;I have to make things clear first.
