This wasn’t the first time Janice had seen Flossie Wright in full force. Since she couldn’t handle her, she naturally wanted to keep her distance from Flossie Wright.
However, compared to the completely unaware Clara Birch and Agnes Parker, her mentality was much better.
"Flossie Wright," Clara Birch pressed down the fear in her heart, forcibly confronting Flossie Wright’s lethal gaze, and asked vigilantly, "Did you call us out here?"
When Clara Birch and Agnes Parker were invited here, they were not clear about the situation. The reason they agreed to come with Becca Reyes was simply because Becca Reyes mentioned "Janice Wood".
They couldn’t have imagined that Flossie Wright had actually returned.
"Summon?" Flossie Wright gave a cold glance, a chilling wind hit her face, and she slowly stepped out from the shadow of the trees. She moved a few steps forward at a leisurely pace until she was close to Clara Birch and Agnes Parker before she finally stopped. A cold smile appeared on her lips, extremely intimidating. "Is it not a threat?"

The chilling voice made their fingers hurt from the cold. Agnes Parker held onto Clara Birch a little tighter, subconsciously moving closer to Clara Birch, as if that would make her feel more secure. Clara Birch, as if her inner thoughts had been seen through, her face slightly turned pale, she forcefully suppressed the nervousness in her eyes.
Those with guilt will fear ghosts knocking.
But, what if they’ve done something guilty?
They should have been able to face Flossie Wright calmly, yet now they instinctively wanted to flee when they saw someone related to Janice Wood. They were uneasy, without even the courage to bluff. If they weren’t holding onto a sliver of hope, they might not have been able to stand here anymore.
Time seemed to freeze, the wind was howling, the shadows of the trees swayed, the mountaintop shrouded in darkness suddenly fell into a deathly silence.
However, for Clara Birch and Agnes Parker, it was an even greater torture than physical torment.
Something was blocking their hearts, they couldn’t breathe or calm down, it was extremely uncomfortable.
"Did Janice Wood tell you?"
After a long while, Clara Birch finally asked her question. In her cautious and nervous expression, a look of relief inexplicably appeared.
But as soon as she spoke, a sudden understanding flashed in the eyes of Flossie Wright standing in front of her. The cold gaze increased in intensity, everywhere it reached seemed to freeze everything into shards of ice.
She was just guessing, she had Becca Reyes bring Clara Birch and Agnes Parker here just to test them. But unexpectedly, her not so high probability guess was exactly right.
Cold, bone-chillingly cold.
Fear, absolutely terrified.
Agnes Parker was not as brave as Clara Birch. The environment was scary enough to terrify her. But with the increasingly terrifying and dangerous Flossie Wright, her heart almost jumped out of her throat.
"Janice Wood jumped off the cliff on her own, it has nothing to do with us!"
Taking a deep breath, the frightened Agnes Parker suddenly leaned out from behind Clara Birch and yelled at Flossie Wright, trying her best to defend herself.
Becca Reyes, who had deliberately kept her distance from this battle, was taken aback at these words. She glanced at Agnes Parker and Clara Birch in some surprise, and after the flash of doubt came understanding.
The evidence of their guilt was clear.
When Flossie Wright asked her to bring Clara Birch and Agnes Parker here, Becca Reyes had some idea of the general situation. However, she didn’t suspect too deeply at the time because Agnes Parker and Clara Birch had solid alibis during Janice Wood’s jump. It was impossible for them to have pushed Janice off the cliff. Most importantly, after Janice woke up she clearly exhibited symptoms of depression, admitting to jumping on her own, and not once did she mention Agnes Parker or Clara Birch.
