Reborn ghost seeing lady is pampered by her ex husband-Chapter 327: A lottery win that was late.

It had been a while since Phoebe handled a case on her own without her grandmother, David, Shark, Andre or even Amon involving themselves.

For Phoebe, being on her own with only her ghost companions for company like this felt like old times, before she became a Mayfair or David’s girlfriend.

"We are here ma’am." Santos announced as he turned off the engine.

Right, Phoebe recalled that she was not completely alone, she had another human companion that often went places with her, her bodyguard/driver on some occasions, Mr. Santos.

She looked out of the window, searching for someone holding up a large signpost and chanting justice related slogans alone or with some supporters. Xavier had explained everything in detail, and she had been in a hurry to handle the case and close it so as not to give Xavier another reason to stick around.

Ghosts of those that committed suicide easily became resentful and a resentful ghost could quickly become malicious which was not good for anyone.

Phoebe looked at the piece of paper where she had jotted down the address. "This is it right? But I cannot see your brother." She poked her head out of the window.

Everything appeared to be normal in front of the building. Xavier moved out to search for him, the other ghosts went with him to help out as well.

The Saxon spirit returned first. "I found him, he is seated in a nearby park eating something." Prominent lines formed between its eyebrows.

Phoebe stepped out of the car just when the other ghosts were returning. They all followed the Saxon spirit to the park where they found Xavier standing over his brother. He was eating a sandwich and crying unabashedly at the same time. He was clearly having a hard time swallowing and Phoebe’s soft heart went out to him.

A deep sigh came from her. "Could this get any sadder?" She strolled to where the man sat.

"Mr. Waterhouse?" Phoebe called his name.

He looked up, looking at Phoebe through his clear blue eyes.

"I am not leaving; you can go back and tell your superiors that." he said as he wiped away tears with the back of his hand.

"I am Phoebe Mayfair a shaman, I do not work for the company, I was approached by your dead brother, he has a message for you, he wants you to stop torturing yourself. This wasn’t a murder, there was no foul play involved...."

The man stood up and raised his hand to stop Phoebe from talking. "Of course it was! My brother would not have taken his life voluntarily, I am certain of it. They must have sent you here to mess with me, but I won’t fall for it. You say that you are a shaman, and you have spoken to my brother, prove it then! Let Xavi show his face." Tears sprouted out of his eyes and this time; he did not bother to wipe them away.

Phoebe reached for the ghost seeing glasses in her bag and handed them to him.

"Here wear these and you will be able to see him."

Her words caused him to stare at her in disbelief, he chuckled sarcastically thinking that Phoebe was joking around but he realized that she was more than serious because she was not smiling.

"Lady are you for real? Because i am not in the mood for any stupid jokes."

"Take it and see if I am joking or not." Phoebe jutted them towards him.

Connie clicked her tongue continuously. "He is a doubter this one, not a believer in ghosts."

"Xander please." Xavier begged.

The man whose name Phoebe had now come to learn was Xander took the glasses and wore them. He gasped for breath after he saw his brother standing in front of him. He took off the glasses and put them back on, the same sight befell his eyes. He did it three times to confirm whether he was being lied to.

"Xan, It’s me Xavi." Xavier said softly.

Xander sobbed loudly and moved his hands to hug his brother, a mission that was futile because even though he could see him, he could not touch him.

"Xavier my God! Is it really you? What happened, the police say you took your life, but I know you would never do that. I am not going to rest until those coworkers that bullied you to death are exposed and punished. I do not believe the autopsy report..."

"Xander stop." The ghost raised its hand to stop him. "Nobody pushed me, yes they berated me a little after my demotion and I hated working there but those people, as horrible as they were, they didn’t kill me, I jumped. I was tired brother; this life I hated it, and I wanted to leave.

I am so sorry that I left you behind, but I had to go, I was sick Xan, cancer got me. I was evicted, sick and broke, everything felt like a dead end, and I did not want to burden anyone.

If you want to be angry at someone, be angry with me, I am the one that made this decision. I do not want you to dwell on your anger and become lost like me, you have a wife and children that love you, I had nobody." The ghost smiled through its tears.

"But you had me!" Xander exploded, "You had me you bastard, and about that loan." Xander checked his shirt pocket and pulled out a piece of paper. "See that lottery ticket we bought together a week before you died, I got the news last night that we won! Brother, we won! Imagine I called to tell you the news only to be told that you had jumped from a building. I couldn’t believe it; you were so happy when I last saw you the day before and we made so many future plans."

"We won." Xavier whispered in disbelief.

"We won." Xander repeated, "Ten million, we finally won, so why didn’t you wait a little longer?"

"When I saw you last, I was saying goodbye Xander, I wanted you to have one last memory of me. Listen brother it’s not your fault but mine, use that money to better the life of your family. I on the other hand must move on, I will always watch over you I promise." Xavier’s lips were covered by a sad smile.

Phoebe felt sorry for the two brothers, life was really funny. How could a lottery win come so late? Had it waited for Xavier to die?

She watched the two brothers sob their hearts out and she wiped her own tears.

"Such is fate." The Saxon spirit sighed.

After the two brothers said their goodbyes, Xavier thanked Phoebe before vanishing.

Phoebe patted Xander’s shoulder. "You will be alright, if you miss him too much then take flowers to his grave and do some good deeds in his name to earn him merit so that he can be reincarnated sooner."

Xander promised to do so, he thanked Phoebe and left. He even took his posters with him and apologized to the guards whose work he had made difficult with his protests.

"What a good man." The Saxon spirit sighed

After handling the case quickly and efficiently, Phoebe went to the hair saloon where she had her hair washed and styled nicely, then she headed home to prepare for dinner.

The dinner was arranged in the gardens rather than inside. Phoebe had invited David being that he was her boyfriend, and he came in time. It was done because her father had requested that they invite their partners.

David had just taken a seat when Luke appeared arm in arm with Luna Elithera.
