REVENGE AFTER DEATH - Season 3 Episode 22

Rachel looked at me with an odd look in her eyes for a moment and asked me softly, “If Stephie were still alive now, do you think she would truly let the matter go?”

I scoffed and retorted sarcastically, “What is she, brain damaged? It’s only logical for her to

let the matter go if that were the case. Otherwise, does she want to die a couple more times before seeing through things?”

Rachel chuckled at that and suddenly hugged me tightly.

I was a bit caught off guard. “Why are you doing this? We’re not even that close,” I said.

“I think you’re pretty cool. I want to be friends with you,” Rachel replied and reached out to

1. me.

She continued, “Nice to meet you, Stephany. Let me reintroduce myself to you. My name is Rachel Qualls. Stephanie and I were the best of friends. We were super, super, super close!”

Rachel said that we were the best of friends. She also used to tell me that when speaking

about important things, they should be repeated thrice.

I lowered my head and smiled. Then, I shook her hand.

I had received a second chance at life, after all. Not only did I have to protect myself this time but also my most cherished friends.

In fact, just as I was about to die, I had sworn something to myself. I swore that if I were

ever given another chance in life, I would truly care and love those who truly felt the same

about me.

I was foolish in my past life. I needed some sense to be knocked into me to grow and

change my ways. I learned my lesson in the end, but the price I paid for it was far too high.

“Mr. Ford, if you keep acting crazy like this, I’m going to call the asylum and have you

admitted,” Zion said with a frown. He genuinely thought that Michael had gone insane.

Zion did not believe in higher powers, after all. It was impossible for him to believe in stuff

like reincarnations and souls.

Before Michael could say anything else, Lois and Yasmin arrived.

“Michael!” Lois called out. She and Yasmin rushed over to hug Michael. “Why did you sneak out of the hospital like that? Are you trying to get yourself killed?”

Yasmin’s eyes were red–rimmed too. She glared fiercely at me and barked out, “Stephany Larson, I can’t believe you’re still trying to seduce Michael by pretending to be Stephanie. Are you trying to kill him?”

Yasmin was pinning all the blame on me.

“She has nothing to do with this. I was the one who came looking for her,” Michael explained in a low voice.

“Shut up!” Lois yelled angrily and slapped Michael. “You didn’t cherish Stephie properly when she was still around. Didn’t I tell you to appreciate her more? Yet you never did! What’s the use of acting

like this in front of such an obvious impostor?”

Lois was a strong and independent woman. She glared at me for a moment and said in a threatening tone, “Stephany, I don’t care why you’re imitating and learning from Stephanie. You might be doing it to get to the Lincolns or us Fords, but if you do anything to harm my

son, I won’t let you off easy!”

I glanced at Yasmin in that instant. It appeared that she was still very talented at inciting arguments. This was a talent she possessed since she was a kid.

“Mrs. Ford, I’m married to Steven Lincoln. I’m even pregnant with his baby. I have not intention of plotting against your son. He’s far inferior to Steven, after all,” I said coldly.

I continued, “Instead of suspecting what my supposed motives might be, you should really be wary about the people closest to you. The woman standing next to you is as malicious. as they come. Not only did she cause Stephanie’s death, but she also has plans to suck your family dry.

“Do you want to know what’s the most terrifying thing about her? Michael had just gotten into an accident yet she was already thinking of ways to use him to get to the elusive. president of Crowdstar Group.”

Yasmin paled at that. “You’re spouting nonsense!

“Mrs. Ford, Michael, you can’t trust her words. This woman is clearly an accomplice to murder. She’s a bad person,” Yasmin said anxiously. It was clear that she felt guilty.

I sneered and took out my phone. I paused for a moment and cursed at Steven inwardly. Damn it, I had forgotten that he had dropped my phone into the bathtub earlier. Luckily, all my recordings were uploaded to the cloud.

After logging into my account, I pulled up the recording of the conversation Yasmin and had in the hospital the other day.

Gather around, you two. Mrs. Ford, this is the evidence of Yasmin begging me to help her seduce the president of Crowdstar Group while your son was unconscious,” I said,

I raised an eyebrow and tilted my chin proudly in Rachel’s direction. I had learned my

lesson, after all.

I had been killed by Yasmin once already. I knew to always start recording whenever I met

her alone.

Yasmin looked surprised as she listened along to the recording I had on my phone. She

glanced at Michael with panic in her eyes and quickly stepped forward.

“Don’t be fooled by her, Mrs. Ford. I was just asking her about the elusive president of Crowdstar Group to help Michael. I was worried that you wouldn’t be able to handle

everything at the company if Michael didn’t wake up,” Yasmin said.

Yasmin turned back to look at Lois nervously. She tried to play into Lois‘ good graces.

“What a clown. It’s clear that she was trying to get with Crowdstar Group’s president, yet

she’s still trying to make it seem that she was making sacrifices for Michael’s sake. Her

acting skills are truly top–notch,” Rachel said, adding fuel to the fire.

Michael’s face along with Lois‘ had darkened significantly.

I smirked at Rachel. She and Zion then gave me a thumbs–up.

“I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t keep you all any longer. Mr. Ford, go consult a

doctor if you’re ill. You’re at the Lincoln residence, not a crematorium. There’s no need for you to cry your eyes out here either,” I said in a low voice while glancing at the time.

I still had to meet Eason. I didn’t have time to indulge Michael in his regrets and his menial

attempts to make amends.
