I Saw His Ghost And Decided To Marry Him Chapter 09

Savannah’s body trembled. 

And this time, I didn’t want to be so timid 

anymore. 

I was the one who had done it. Even if no one here 

admitted it, the hospital security footage could 

prove the truth, couldn’t it? 

So after hesitating for only a few seconds, I 

stepped forward on my own for the first time. 

“It was me! I was the one who stayed by your side 

and took care of you personally for the past six 

months.” 

“I was the one who played movies, music, and 

opera for you every day. I was the one who read 

you the news and gave you sponge baths. It was 

always me, Rowan Hayes.” 

Although things had gone off the original plan, 

Mrs. Ford Sr. actually let out a breath of relief 

when she saw me being brave. 

Preston’s lips curved into a faint, amused smile, as if he was very satisfied with my answer. 

The moment our eyes met, I even felt that Preston 

had remembered everything from his time as a 

spirit as soon as he woke up. 

He had only dragged this out on purpose to test whether I would fight for myself. 

I wondered whether he remembered the $30 

million too. 

If he did, could he hurry up and transfer it to me? 

Wouldn’t that be the perfect way to make 

Savannah furious? 

Savannah clearly sensed that something was 

wrong. 

Still unwilling to give up, she tried to turn things 

around one last time. 

“No, don’t listen to her nonsense!” 

“Preston, you know this. Rowan has bullied me 

since we were kids. She loves stealing my things, 

and now she’s trying to steal you from me too…” 

It would have been better if Savannah had never 

said that. 

The moment she brought up that lie, Preston’s 

gaze sharpened, as if even more memories had 

returned to him. 

His expression turned ice–cold. 

“Savannah, I don’t want to see you right now. Get 

as far away from me as you can.” 

Once he said that, Mrs. Ford Sr. raised her hand 

and called the bodyguards in. 

Just as Savannah was about to be dragged away, 

Preston suddenly spoke again. 

“Wait.” 

Savannah’s face lit up. 

She thought Preston was softening toward her for 

old times‘ sake. 

But to her surprise, Preston said something quietly into his mother’s ear, then looked up and smiled at 

1. me. 

“Rowan, to thank you for taking such careful care 

of me for the past six months, I’ve decided to give you $30 million.” 

“With so many people here as witnesses, this is a voluntary gift. Take it without worrying.” 

In the next second, under Mrs. Ford Sr.’s 

instructions, my phone chimed with a notification. 

that $30 million had arrived in my account. 

The world spun around me, and I nearly fainted from happiness. 

Then Savannah’s shrill scream yanked me back to reality. 

“Rowan! What gives you the right?” 

Her face twisted with jealousy, her eyes 

bloodshot. 

“That $30 million should be mine! If I hadn’t given you this chance, how would you ever have gotten 

something this good?” 

“Give me the money. Give it to me!” 

Just as she lunged toward me with her hands 

clawing through the air, the bodyguards dragged 

her and my parents away without mercy. 

The reporters captured every second of her 

miserable humiliation, and it felt like a fierce bit of 

revenge on my behalf. 

I also made up my mind. In a little while, I would hire the best lawyer I could find and sue my 

parents for abusing me when I was growing up. 

While I was at it, I would cut them out of my life for good. 

After the reporters asked a few more brief 

questions, the hospital room finally quieted down. 

Mrs. Ford Sr. didn’t blame me. Instead, she thoughtfully gave Preston and me time to talk. 

Now that I was facing a living, breathing Preston, I actually felt a little awkward. 

Seeing me fidget, Preston narrowed his eyes with amusement and asked, “Rowan, how did you 

know my favorite fruit was durian?”
