Reborn ghost seeing lady is pampered by her ex husband

Before leaving the mall, her aunt stopped by a restaurant that sold soup curries and roasted chicken. She ordered enough to feed everyone in the cafe, over tipped the waiter and then they left with three bags of food in hand.

They stood at the side walked and hailed a taxi which would take them back to the cafe, right when it stopped for them to enter, Phoebe got a phone call that made her sigh.

A call from Shark was never a good thing, he was not the kind to call to check on Phoebe with no reason.

"Please don't be some high-profile murder case." she muttered and answered the call as while shoving the bag of food inside the waiting taxi, and then she followed.

As always, she looked at the driver first and noticed that even in this case, it was the Elithera boys were inside, one in the passenger sit and another in the driver's seat. Had they been circling the mall, waiting for them or had they parked the taxi nearby and waited?

They were really good at their jobs; she had to give credit where it was due. She smiled at the driver and answered the call reluctantly.

"Hello Shark, I am keeping my fingers crossed for good news, please don't tell me something unpleasant, my day has been rough enough as it is already." Read exclusive content at My Virtual Library Empire

Even as she said, this, she had a feeling that it was useless.

"There is a problem alright, drop whatever it is that you are doing and get your butt to the station right now. It's serious business Phoebe, personal business so hurry." Shark ordered; he hung up the call without saying another word.

Phoebe pulled the phone away from her ears and stared at it in a haze, she added one and two together and figured that it had to be an important case, usually Shark had to first grovel and plead with her to take a look at his cases but this time he had commanded her to go to the station.

The frown on her face alarmed her aunt whose sharp ears had managed to hear Shark's words.

"Is there a problem?" she asked.

In response Phoebe shook her head. "I do not know but I am heading to the station, Shark has asked that I see him urgently. Usually that means an important person has dropped dead. I will drop you off at the cafe and then head there." She rested her phone back in the bag and rubbed her neck with one hand.

Maureen rolled her eyes, got a paper talisman and stuck it on Phoebe's neck.

"What is this, amateur hour? Don't you know about amethyst talismans which soothe sore muscles and reduce tension?"

Phoebe shrugged, "I usually give my time to the ones that help me make money or provide protection."

As the car traveled, Maureen introduced her to talismans that were capable of making life easier. The education lasted until they arrived at the cafe, and she bade Maureen goodbye.

After dropping off her aunt, Phoebe went straight to the station, she went in the taxi, but a convoy of expensive cars traveled with her. Two were at the front and two were at the back, in addition to this, five motorbikes guarded the sides inconspicuously.

When she entered the police station, she was enthusiastically greeted by other policemen and detectives. Many of them had benefited in different ways from the presence of a wealthy heiress that worked as a police consultant, the Mayfair's had given them benefits so that they could look out for her in the field. She gave back the same energy as she responded until she reached Shark's desk and paused for a moment.

Phoebe could not believe her eyes when she saw Moria and Luna sitting at Shark's desk and she knew in that moment what the important personal matter was all about.

"I should have known." she mumbled and shook her head.

A loud amused laughter came from Connie who appeared out of nowhere. "I knew that Luna would not disappoint me, I was rooting for her. Look at Moria's face, Luna beat that boyfriend stealing skunk black and blue, ha-ha." She continued to bubble with laughter.

This time the spirit did not reprimand the teenage ghost for using unseemly words like skunk, it wore an amused expression too, holding back laughter. In as much as Luna had created trouble for Phoebe, the spirit also believed that Moria deserved the beating. It was payback for the slap she wanted Gemma to give Phoebe.

Upon getting a closer look at Moria, Phoebe fought to suppress her laughter, it took all the courage in her to maintain a straight face. The skin around Moria's eyes was puffy and blue, one of her eyes was swollen almost shut, her cheeks were enlarged and her lips swollen and split.

She put a hand to her chest and pretended as if she was overcome with some fright. "Holy cow Moria where you stung by a swarm of bees, you look...." She stopped and bit back a laugh.

A woman who sat closely next to Moria sneered. "Stop pretending, do you think that we believe you?" She spoke through an angry snarl. "Detective, go ahead and charge them, we have told you that we do not want to negotiate or settle this! I can go above your head; do you want me to call the commissioner?" She harshly spoke, her glare shifted between Phoebe, Luna and Shark.

She was a beautiful middle-aged woman, plump and dressed in very expensive clothes. "This must be the mother, aunt or something. You can tell by the way her hands are protectively wrapped around Moria's." Connie suggested.

Moria pulled on her mother's arm. "Mother, I told you that that I do not want to pursue this any further, besides Phoebe did nothing wrong. I do not know why you want to involve her in this." Her voice quavered, then she winced suddenly because she was in pain.

"Oh, come on you faker! I did not do that to you, I only gave you one slap, the same one that Gemma Michelson tried give Phoebe in my boutique. You are the power behind Gemma." Luna looked between Moria and her mother. "I do not know why she is swollen like a pregnant kangaroo. Did you beat yourself up such that you can fish for sympathy? It is not working." Luna let out a derisive laugh, she cared less whether the Mortimer's tried to force her out of town, she had Mayfair's and Saxons in her corner.

"Are you suggesting that my daughter assaulted herself?" Moria's mother stood up and shouted.

"Yes." Luna replied confidently.

Her answer and attitude angered Moria's mother and she screamed, clenching her fists.

Shark raised his hands to calm them down, luckily the station was almost empty but even then, anyone could be recording the altercation.

"Ladies please let us keep our voices down." His voice was barely audible over the ongoing argument.

A smirk came from Moria at the same moment, running her fingers through her red hair, Moria sneered. "Fishing for sympathy? You are the one that attacked me with some goons and commanded me to stay away from David and Phoebe, who is your friend I believe."@@novelbin@@
