REVENGE AFTER DEATH - Season 1 Episode 76

Steven immediately started pretending to be pitiful. He hugged me from behind and said, “It hurts when they hit me.”

I looked at him helplessly. What should I do with someone like him?

I was about to find a place for him to stay when the Lincoln family’s car stopped by the side of the road. Ignatius‘ assistant, Ewan Bart, got out of the car.

He glanced at Steven thoughtfully and bowed his head politely. “Mr. Lincoln, it’s time to go home.

I couldn’t help but sneer inwardly. These people really knew how to put on an act when they were outside.

He had even addressed Steven as “Mr. Lincoln“. Had the Lincoln family ever treated him like a scion of their family?

“Mr. Bart, is Mr. Ignatius angry? Steven didn’t leave the house for nothing. He came out to protect me. Can you please put in a good word for him?” I said warily.

I had to give it a shot even though Steven would definitely get mistreated again when he goes back. “Mr. James caused some trouble at work, so Mr. Ignatius has sent him to Montavia to handle some projects there.

“Mr. James left at three o’clock in the afternoon. He’ll be staying abroad for three months,” Ewan said expressionlessly.

I heaved a sigh of relief. Things would be better in these three months then.

Ewan continued, “As for Mr. Ignatius, he’s getting older, and his body isn’t as strong as before. He needs to go to Huma Hospital for his physiotherapy treatment.”

I was stunned for a moment and felt puzzled. Why did it feel like Ewan was reporting all these things to me? He had no reason to tell me all this.

So, why did he deliberately tell me all that?

I turned to look at Steven, who was staring at me innocently. It was clear that Ewan wasn’t reporting to Steven either.

Did he say all that to coax Steven to return home without resistance? This was probably the case. “Mr. Ignatius has already gone back to the old residence to prepare for tomorrow,” Ewan continued. “Let’s set off now. It’ll take three and a half hours to reach our destination. Please get into the car.”

He then opened the car door for Steven and me.

I was speechless. Why was Ewan being so polite?

hin and walled in a manner that made me seem more elegant and noble. Since I was pregnant, I might as well enjoy my status for a bit.

Steven looked at me and smiled. His smile was really dazzling

Laverted my eyes. This was the first time I had used that word to describe someone’s smile. And, it

was because of a man.

“We’re going back to the old residence this time to pray for your child’s health and for a smooth birth,

wan explained once we got into the car.

I was rather surprised. Was the Lincoln family actually concerned for my child?

Still, the Lincolns were a crazy bunch. I couldn’t guess what they actually had in mind.

1 leaned my head against the window and watched as the scenery passed by.

My mind was filled with the scene of Michael defending Yasmin just now. If it were in the past, my heart would have shattered into a million pieces, but now, I just felt disgusted.

I would just let him continue with his delusions for now and see how long he could protect her.

I really couldn’t understand it. How was I so blind to fall for a man like him?

Was it only because he had saved me from the fire during the accident?

My head started to hurt again. Flashes of the accident kept appearing in my mind.

The person who had saved me… Why did it feel like the person who had saved me wasn’t Michael? Did my mind perhaps trick me into believing that?

Due to how silent it was in the car, I felt rather sleepy.

As I started drifting off, I felt Steven reach out his hand and gingerly place it under my head. It was as if he was afraid that my head would hit the car window when there was a bump on the road.

“Mr. Lincoln, it’s almost time,” Ewan said.

“Alright.”

Right before I fell asleep, I heard Ewan’s voice. But I couldn’t hear his words clearly, and I soon fell asleep.
