After Chris felt the chill coming from his back, he couldn't help but shudder.
"What happened just now?"
He looked back and found it strange that there could be no wind or air conditioning behind here.
So what's going on with this weird trembling feeling?
Just for a moment, Chris felt as if his whole body was frozen.
The last time he had a similar feeling was when he faced his son's body.
At that time, I just felt that the world seemed to have collapsed.
It was obviously still the familiar face, but just lying there like this, unable to speak or open his eyes anymore.
Seeing his son turn into a cold corpse was a feeling that Chris would never forget for the rest of his life. However, his wife just stood aside and put all the blame on him.
"It's all because of you. If you hadn't believed in your son, he wouldn't have died! Give me your son back, Chris Irving, give your son back to me!"
Yes.
Chris remembered that at that time, for a moment, he felt like his whole body was frozen. That feeling made him unable to move or breathe, as if every pore in his body was trembling.
"I……"
Chris suddenly recalled what the woman named Melty had just said.
Her words... originally sounded ridiculous, but now, he suddenly felt that maybe she was telling the truth.
What if what she said...is actually true?
He shook his head, reached out and took out a pack of cigarettes from his arms, and took out another cigarette.
He found that his hands were shaking extremely badly, and the cold trembling feeling hit his heart again. When he lit the lighter again, the flames went out as soon as they popped out.
"What?"
At this time, he, who was already trembling, was even more shocked.
How could it be? There is obviously no wind?
He strode in the opposite direction from Melty.
"No, no, no! That woman is a lunatic, she is a lunatic, and nothing she says is true!"
Yes, nothing she said is true!
Then, he quickly walked to the train toilet, ran in, and closed the door.
At this moment, he felt a little more at ease.
He leaned against the door, holding a cigarette in his mouth, and once again wanted to light the cigarette.
"It's not my fault. John's death is not my fault...it wasn't from the beginning..."
But now, Chris seems to be able to see John's face at any time. It seems like he can see it every moment.
At this time, he once again recalled what Melty said: "Ghosts do exist in this world. Even if the gods do not exist, ghosts absolutely exist. I can confirm this for you.
"
Even now, these words still linger in his ears.
Chris grabbed his chest, then took out his cell phone and called his wife again.
"What's wrong?"
His wife Anna's voice sounded again.
"Anna." Chris said in a calm tone, "If you raise our daughter from now on..."
Hearing this, the person on the other end of the phone seemed stunned.
"I have been thinking a lot recently about what I have done as a father and why I have not been able to truly get into my son's heart. You said I don't trust my son, but what is real trust? Because we are children, we have no conditions.
Do you believe them? I don’t understand... I feel that as an educator, I am not qualified."
Hearing this, Anna's tone became calmer.
"You are a good teacher. I admit this. You also apply the same standards to everyone. If my students take drugs and bully the weak, you will stop them. But you don't understand John at all...
...You don’t understand him, so he won’t tell you the truth. He is an addict, but he definitely did not rape anyone. We are family members, why should we treat family members with the same standards as students? Family members should not treat each other with the same standards as students.
Are feelings more important than reason?"
Both Chris and Anna were calm for a long time.
"It's impossible for us, Chris. In any case, I can't give you my daughter. I don't want you to continue to raise your daughter as one of your students at home. I will educate her well. If you
Agree to directly sign an agreement to give her to me for custody, and I can increase the number of times you come to visit your daughter every week."
Chris tried lighting the lighter again.
Still useless.
"When John died...when our son died, did he hate me? I've been thinking about this question a lot recently."
Shouldn’t family members be reasonable?
Chris was confused.
If the son dies with resentment towards him, if the son never forgives him until his death...
He recalled the shuddering feeling.
"Chris, think about it carefully. Unless you agree to give me custody of your daughter, otherwise... you can only contact me through a lawyer. Without my daughter, I might as well die."
His wife hung up the phone, but Chris felt cold all over.
At this moment, he suddenly felt the strong chill again.
Just like the moment John died...
Then, he suddenly felt something grabbing his ankle!
…
"Ahhhhh! No! Don't!"
While Jack and Bob were bragging and chatting, they suddenly heard a fierce shout!
"What's wrong?"
They stared blankly in the direction of the shouting.
Melias suddenly let out a sharp cry, and beside her, Melty hugged her.
"Okay, it's okay, it's okay, Melias, mom is here, it's okay... Are you having a nightmare?"
Bob took a sip of beer and said, "What, it scared me to death. It turned out to be a nightmare."
Jack was overjoyed and said, "Isn't this opportunity to strike up a conversation come again?"
Then, he picked up the beer and poured it towards his trouser legs.
"What are you doing, Jack?" Bob looked at Jack's incredible behavior in confusion.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Then, he ran to Melty and Melias mother and daughter.
"Madam, your daughter just scared us." Jack pointed to his pants. "Look, my pants are soaked."
Melty hugged Melias and said, "I'm sorry, sir, for frightening you."
Jack quickly judged how to get the other party's mobile phone number, and said: "Hey, I bought these pants new, and they are so wet now. Do I have to wear these soaked pants until I get to Virginia?"
What?"
At this time, he deliberately came closer and looked down, so that he could see some "wonderful scenery".
Jack is a completely shameless person. He smokes, drinks alcohol, takes drugs, gambles, and goes whoring. It can be said that he has all five poisons. His sense of shame is non-existent.
Melty saw that Jack spoke in such a frivolous tone, and she already guessed that the other person had evil intentions.
"Sir, my daughter didn't spill this beer on you, right?" Melty said coldly: "You are really being unreasonable and unreasonable."
Jack immediately said: "Madam, do you think I am unreasonable?"
With that said, he planned to go up and do something.
Even if he can't ask for his cell phone number, he can enjoy his mobile phone addiction, which is still a profit for Jack.
At this time, his hand has already grabbed it!
At this time, the friend Bob behind him rushed up, grabbed Jack, and said: "Friend, you drank too much, forget it! Forget it!"
Then, Jack was pulled back with all his might.
"What do you do, Bob!"
"I don't think it's necessary to be so ugly, Jack! Enough is enough!"
"What are you talking about? I was almost..."
"That's right, Jack! Why make it so ugly? If you can, use your eloquence to strike up a conversation." Another friend, Jason, said, "You think so, right?"
"Speaking of which..." Bob immediately began to change the subject: "Don't you think it's strange? The man who was sitting opposite the mother and daughter just now... where did he go? He hasn't come back yet?"
