Aurelia glanced at the two of them, a storm of emotion twisting inside her at the thought that Jelena might be scheming against Chloe out of vengeance, deliberately getting close to Fredric to drive a wedge between him and Sheryl. It was like an earthquake had shaken her soul to its core.

Looking back, Jelena always seemed to harbor intense hatred whenever she mentioned Sheryl. Could it all be because of Chloe? After lunch, Aurelia quietly pulled Beverley aside.

"Do you believe in ghosts?" she whispered.

"Of course, | do," Beverley replied, her belief in the supernatural unshakable, "People have souls, and even when the body is gone, the soul lives on." "And do you believe in vengeful spirits?" Aurelia pressed on.

"If there are ghosts, then vengeful spirits make sense. Sare so filled with anger from their past lives, so intent on revenge, they refuse to move on, becoming restless ghosts that haunt those who wronged them, cursing them with misfortune," Beverley explained, then asked with concern, "Aurelia, you haven't had a ghostly encounter, have you? You're too kind-hearted for that." Aurelia's voice dropped to a conspiratorial hush, "It's not me, | mean, it's Sheryl." "Sheryl?" Beverley gasped, covering her mouth in shock, "You think she's haunted by a vengeful spirit? Could it be her?" "Who?" Aurelia played dumb.

Beverley's voice was barely audible, "Joyce, Fredric's ex-girlfriend. She was stunning, and Fredric was head over heels for her, chasing her relentlessly, even proposing to her. They were supposed to get married on Valentine's Day, and the wedding was all set. But then Sheryl got involved with Fredric, and ended up pregnant.” She paused, recalling the details she'd pieced together over the years.

"Joyce was filming a movie at the time, and Sheryl, pregnant as she was, confronted her on set, told her about the baby, and demanded she back off. The scene was explosive. And on Valentine's Day, the bride walking down the aisle turned out to be Sheryl. Joyce spiraled into depression after that and left showbiz. The following Valentine's Day, she wore a red dress and took her own life in the hotel where Fredric and Sheryl had their wedding.

She survived but ended up in a vegetative state. You know, in the world of the supernatural, a vegetative person is just a body without a soul.

The incident caused quite the stir in Elysium, but Jessica quickly hushed it up and banned media coverage. She paid Joyce's family, the White family, a fortune for Joyce's medical expenses and their silence." Aurelia scoffed, "Did Sheryl ever feel a shred of guilt?" Beverley replied, "After Joyce's suicide attempt, Sheryl left the limelight to focus on her family. As for guilt, who knows? She'd never show it. But friends betraying friends? That's an old story. There's no true friendship, just faux sisterhood. Joyce was too naive, too trusting." Aurelia asked, "Did Fredric ever visit Joyce after her fall? Did he feel anything for her?" Beverley shrugged, "You know what Fredric is like. Once he's had sex with a pretty girl, she loses her appeal." "So, it might be a vengeful spirit that's been causing their troubles, leading to their marriage falling apart. We need to make Sheryl realize this, push her to atone, and seek forgiveness from the restless spirit. Otherwise, she and Fredric are done for."
