Haylan frowned slightly. “Possessed?”
“Yes, I spent the night with her yesterday and we encountered something bad.” There was a trace of
fear in Mia’s voice.
However, there was more excitement within.
“Tell me in detail. What happened?”
He grabbed a French loaf and a carton of fresh milk, then got inside his BMW while nibbling on his
breakfast.
“It’s impossible to explain everything over the phone. How about this? Do you have time? Let’s meet up
and have breakfast while discussing it in detail,” Mia suggested.
“Will your friend also be there?” Haylan asked.
“Yes, I just booked a private room at Magpie Cafe. Will you come over?”
“The Magpie Café?”
Hearing this, Haylan immediately felt that the food in his hand was no longer appealing. He hurriedly
said, “Sure, send me the address. I’ll come over right now.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was Magpie Café!
It was a restaurant he had always loved to go to during high school, but because the prices there were
more geared towards the middle and lower classes, even just one person had to spend over 10 dollars.
10 dollars may not have been a problem for many families.
However, for his family at the time, it was considered a lot.
During high school, he had only been to that restaurant twice, once for a class reunion and once when
Noah and Perry treated him.
After those two times, he could not stop thinking about all the food he had at Magpie Café, especially
seafood stew, sausage rolls, fruit tarts, as well as mac and cheese.
After going abroad, he was always busy with the war, not having the chance to enjoy this food.
Now, he simply could not refuse upon hearing that Mia had made a reservation at Magpie Café.
“Okay, I’ll send it over right now.”
She then sent the address to him.
Haylan hung up the phone, immediately put down the fresh milk and French loaf in his hand, started
the car, and drove toward Magpie Café.
He arrived at the restaurant about thirty minutes later. He parked the car and went straight to Magpie
Café, the agreed location.
He remembered that Magpie Café did not have private rooms in the past. After eight years, he found to
his surprise that the restaurant had evolved and contained many private rooms now.
He asked the waiter and found the private room where Mia was, pushed open the door, and got inside.
This private room was not very spacious, but the sound insulation was decent and the decoration was
very refreshing.
Mia and Ceci were sitting at a round dining table.
Although the two were wearing masks, one could tell from their eyes and the shape of their faces that
they were especially beautiful. Also, their skins were tender and fair.
When Mia saw him, her eyes brightened and she waved her hand, saying, “Haylan, over here!”
As she spoke, she also patted the seat beside her.
Haylan walked over and sat down next to her, asking, “Don’t you have to film today?”
“Hehehe, the screenwriter is revising the script today, and the director is finalizing the shooting process,
so I can take a day off,” she replied.

“It’s okay. We’re all friends anyway. So, this is?” Haylan waved his hand and looked at Ceci with a
puzzled expression.
Although Ceci was also wearing a mask, one could easily tell from her eyes, face shape, and skin that
she was gorgeous and celebrity-like.
Ceci took off her mask and smiled. “Hello, Haylan. I’m Ceci, Mimi’s best friend. Nice to meet you.”
It was proven after she had taken off the mask that she was indeed especially beautiful.
Unlike Mia’s youthful vitality and liveliness, Ceci had a particularly gentle, elegant, and graceful
demeanor. She spoke slowly and politely. One could clearly tell that she was a very gentle woman.
“So, the person Mimi was talking about is you, right? You have indeed been plagued by a bad omen,”
Haylan said.
After all, he noticed a rather terrifying black aura emitting from the woman’s chest.
This indicated that Ceci had recently encountered some very vicious evil spirits.
This was a very bad omen!
“Mr. Jaber, please show some respect!” Ceci’s said with displeasure.
She wondered why he had looked at her chest and brought up nonsense like a “bad omen”.
It seemed to her that he was simply teasing her.
