Yuna screamed at the top of her lungs, terror stripping away her composure, causing her to tumble off her chair
in a clumsy heap. Simultaneously, Penelope beside her disintegrated into countless particles of dust, vanishing
into thin air.
She was gone.
Yuna, heart pounding and drenched in a cold sweat, blinked in disbelief. Someone rushed to help her up from the
floor.
As Yuna turned to offer her thanks, she was met with Penelope's bared teeth and a ghastly grin!
Fear engulfed her in an instant.
Penelope, with one hand on her arm and the other morphing into skeletal fingers dripping with blood, reached for
her!

"Yuna, what's there to fear? You're mommy's good girl, aren't you? Why would you be scared?"
"Enough! Stay away from me! Just stay away!"
Yuna screamed desperately, pulling her arm away, shivering uncontrollably as she staggered backward.
The people in the conference room exchanged confused looks, witnessing Yuna's terror-stricken confrontation
with thin air.
"Ms. Lockwood, who are you talking to?"
Yuna pointed towards a corner, shouting, "Penelope... she's cback for me! She's right here, you have to take
her away!!"
Her cries tore through the silence as Penelope's face grotesquely twisted before her eyes.
"Yuna, where do you want mommy to go? Oh, | forgot, how could you be my daughter? You're nothing but a
bastard child! Did you think I'd just vanish from this world upon death? No, I didn't drink the Lethe's water, so the
Grim Reaper turnedinto a vengeful spirit."
As Penelope spoke, her bony fingers gently grazed Yuna's cheek.
"| can't bear to leave you, my dear. I'll always be watching over you, clinging to your surroundings."
Suddenly, Violet's figure beceerily visible, with Penelope somehow clinging onto her shoulder.
"I could latch onto Violet, or onto Frederick and Marguerite. Wouldn't that make you feel more at home?"
Despite Penelope standing right in front of her, Yuna felt invisible hands, like creeping ivy, wrapping around her
body-a sensation that drove her to the brink of insanity. She lunged forward, hands tightly strangling Penelope,
crying out in anguish:
"You forced my hand! Why do you haunt me? Why won't you leavebe?"
Yuna, with a ferocity as if to tear Penelope apart, gritted her teeth in rage.
The onlookers rushed forward in a panic, "Ms. Lockwood, let go! You're going to kill her!"
Kill her?

That would be for the best!
After all, hadn't Yuna taken Penelope's life once before? What was one more time?
Yuna tightened her grip, but Penelope seemed unaffected, allowing Yuna to strangle her.
Gradually, her eyes rolled back, blood streaming from her eyes, nose, and mouth right into Yuna's hands.
Then, Penelope's skeletal fingers reached behind her head and began to tear off her face, revealing
underneath... Laverne's face!
Yuna's heart skipped a beat as Laverne's aged voice enveloped her.
"Yuna, your hands are stained with the blood of your mother and grandmother. Are you satisfied? Is our blood
sweet to you? Grandma misses you, won't you cand join me?"
"Don't push me! Leavealone!" Yuna's emotions spiraled out of control.
Several hands gripped her arms tightly, while voices from reality bombarded her.
"Ms. Lockwood! Please, let go!"
"Violet's going to die because of you!"
