Chapter 144 Weeping in the Middle of the Night That night, in the middle of the night, mournful cries echoed through the McLaughlin family's private villa. It sounded eerie in the darkness. Darwin and his father Philip McLaughlin stood in a room, their faces filled with suspicion and alarm as they listened to Mrs. McLaughlin, Kristina McLaughlin, crying hysterically on the floor.

"What's going on? Honey, what happened?" Philip asked anxiously.

It was frightening to wake up in the middle of the night to find your partner crying uncontrollably beside you. But Kristina wasn't just crying; she was also acting insane. She was cutting up bed sheets with scissors while sobbing nonstop.

No matter how much they called out to her, she didn't respond at all. She seemed completely out of her mind.

"Dad, is Mom possessed or something?" Darwin asked nervously. "Quick! Call Master Soidho!" Philip shouted urgently upon hearing his son's words.

Soon enough, Master Soidho arrived at the McLaughlin family's home looking rushed and concerned about Kristina's condition.

"Master Soidho! Thank goodness you're here!" Philip greeted him eagerly. "My wife is acting strange tonight and won't stop crying no matter what we do."

"Don't worry," Master Soidho said after examining Kristina upstairs for a moment. "She has been affected by negative energy from evil spirits that roam around during nighttime hours - it happens quite often actually - but I can perform an exorcism ritual to help her."

At this point, Darwin spoke up hesitantly, "Master Soidho... is my mom going to be okay? Someone told me earlier today that I have a bad omen because two stars fell from my constellation which means my mother might be in danger..."

Hearing this made Master Soidho chuckle, "Mr. McLaughlin... nine out of ten people who claim they can predict fate are frauds. Don't believe everything you hear!"

After hearing these words from Master Soidho, Darwin breathed a sigh of relief and silently cursed Lachlan under his breath for scaring him like that earlier today...

A few moments later, after Master Soidho performed his ritualistic duties, Kristina finally calmed down enough to fall asleep peacefully on her bed once again...
