Chapter 666 - The House Is Haunted

After listening to all the instructions from Jan and London, Pammy then left. As she walked to the lobby and then into the courtyard of the building to take a taxi to her apartment, Pammy kept watching her surroundings.

She just realized that some mysterious-looking people were patrolling and doing security work in some parts of the hospital.

Ahh .. this must be the security team of the big boss from the Schneider Group, she thought. She then remembered how L had complained several times that she suspected London of working with mafia groups or the like because she often caught London meeting or being followed by two mysterious-looking people.

Now Pammy realized that L might have been actually seeing London Schneider's bodyguards, but the girl misunderstood and thought they were a gang of criminals.

Having that thought, Pammy suddenly felt a headache. She squeezed her temple while ordering a taxi through an application and changed her original destination from her apartment into a bar in the city center.

She needed to drink something strong to clear her mind, no matter how weird that sounded. What a strange night!

The Schneider Group owner actually lived in a simple apartment with L for two and a half months? And to this day, L did not know that the man who had proposed to her three times was an extremely extraordinary man. What was funny was that London was actually a wealthy man she had always wanted...

Crazy!

This is insane!

The Schneider family was finally able to visit the newest granddaughter when L was fast asleep. They entered her room in twos and watched the little baby with love and admiration.

Caspar and Finland entered first, then followed by Terry and Rune, then Aldebar and Lauriel. They chatted in a low voice with the proud father as he showed off his baby to the eager visitors.

Caspar examined the baby's health records and assured London that Lily would be fine. With painstaking care, Lily would be able to have a normal and healthy body like her two cousins, who were only born a week before.

Finland almost did not want to leave the treatment room because she really wanted to stay longer with her youngest grandchild. Seeing Lily in an incubator with all the tubing and life support devices, really broke her heart.

But she realized that the other family members also wanted to see Lily and they couldn't linger while L was sleeping, so she finally reluctantly left with Caspar.

When it was Terry and Rune's turn, they just stood there admiring Lily from the incubator. Rune must be patient because it turned out Lily still did not want to cry. So, his baby cry translator still had to wait to be tested. While Terry was still trying to convince London that girls can also use the name Terry.

"Seriously ... my name is Terry from the male version of 'Terrence'. If you use Thery, the feminine version, she can still be called 'Terry'," he said in a whisper. London just rolled his eyes. He could not believe his brother was so persistent in being the namesake for his newest niece.

"If you want to have a child named Terry, why don't you find a wife and make your own babies?" London grumbled.

Hearing that, Terry just looked away. He still didn't want to find a partner. He was still very young. He was only 34 years old!

He would not look for a serious girlfriend until he was at least a century old.

After ten minutes, London was forced to dismiss Terry and Rune because he was afraid they would only cause a scene and disturb L's sleep.

The last ones to visit Lily were Aldebar and Lauriel. London incessantly thanked them. It was with the help of these two uncles that Lily could be born safely, and L also did not experience more severe problems with her heart.

As a scientist and medicine expert, the two examined Lily's condition, just like Caspar did. In a low voice, they then discussed how Lily could be cared for so that she would grow well, and her health improved.

Lauriel also promised to make some more medicine for L so that the girl could become healthier even though she might not be going to get the immortality potion.

Lauriel knew that a sick mother would not be able to fully care for a micro-prem.a.t.u.r.e baby who needed so much attention, so he thoughtfully tried to help improve L's health.

London felt very grateful and moved by his family's support. Without their help and support from the start, he may have experienced tremendous pressure when faced with the situation where L, who had to give birth to their baby in a micro-prem.a.t.u.r.e condition.

After they returned home, London decided to rest and recharge his energy because he would have to do so many things tomorrow. L would be discharged from the hospital, and then they have to 'find' a new home.

***

L also did not expect her condition to improve so quickly. Although she was sad to leave Lily in the hospital for a while, she wanted to immediately find a new home for them to live. So that she could provide better treatment for her child in their own home.

Because L was already very famous, they decided to go back to the apartment at night. L also disguised herself by wearing a hooded jacket and big glasses to hide from paparazzi and fans who might recognize her.

They arrived at the apartment at 8 pm. Pammy came to bring pizza for dinner. While the three of them were enjoying pizza, Pammy gave L her report about some interesting houses she found.

"I think this house in Grunewald is the best. The location is in the most elite part of Berlin. The ric.h.e.s.t people in Germany live there, so it would be very good for your association and networking," Pammy commented while pointing to a folder containing photographs of houses in Grunewald. Those were the pictures Jan showed London the night before.

This morning, Jan managed to buy the house from the owner who was on vacation in New Zealand. They were happy to sell their home when Jan mentioned a fantastic price that they could use to buy a small island in Asia.

"Hmm ..." L looked at the photos of the house and repeatedly clicked her tongue in admiration. London was right, the house suited L's taste. The girl didn't even bother to look at the other listings. Her eyes seemed to glow when she saw the large garden, lush trees, swing under the trees, a swimming pool, and spacious verandah. But then she frowned, staring at Pammy in confusion. "This house is perfect ... but I can't possibly have enough money to buy it. I'm not that rich yet!"

Pammy and London exchanged glances. They had guessed this before, and they had prepared the answer.

Pammy then coughed a little. "Uhm ... actually this house is sold for cheap because the owner is in a hurry to get rid of it."

"Why?" L asked curiously.

"Uhm ... because... this house ... is haunted."
