REVENGE AFTER DEATH - Season 3 Episode 8

At last, Zion emerged, wearing a somber expression and brimming with fury. He ignored Rachel me, and Steven. Then, he angrily walked past us, got into the car, and slammed the door shut.

Rachel followed him. “How can he possibly be this stubborn?”

Steven put his hand in his pocket and grabbed my collar. He pulled me into his arms to protect me from Zion’s reckless driving that could’ve crushed my toes.

“As stubborn as a mule!” Rachel angrily scolded Zion while also looking at Phil with concern. She said, “Simon’s death isn’t Zion’s problem. He…”

“But Officer Landon’s punch caused his death. If they pursue this case, Officer Landon may lose his job this time,” Phil explained with deep concern.

Rachel was momentarily shocked before speaking in a nervous tone, “Is it really that serious? Simon clearly provoked Zion on purpose. It’s obvious…‘

“This is part of their plan,” Steven whispered to me.

It was unclear what punishment Zion would get. It would be good if he didn’t go to jail, but he might lose his job.

I froze in place. At that moment, I felt the sheer horror of the hidden murderer. I constantly felt a chill on my back as if countless eyes were fixated on us and countless forces were controlling us.

Those geniuses viewed ordinary people like us as mere puppets. They could easily manipulate and control us. They could kill people freely. They could make the police lose their jobs and prevent Zion from participating in the murder case.

The mastermind was clever. He manipulated Simon, who was dying, to trick Zion into making a mistake. He successfully got rid of Zion.

The chilling sensation in my fingertips intensified, and the fear of the mysterious and formidable talent reached its peak. Compared to absolute geniuses, I could only be seen as a fool among fools, just as insignificant as ants.

“Steven, he’s so scary.” The mastermind was truly a terrifying figure.

Steven’s hand tightened around mine, and his gaze deepened. “Then let’s be scarier than him. Don’t be afraid, Stephie. I’ll always be here with you.”

Upon our return to the hospital, we found that Michael had been transferred to the intensive care unit. Yasmin remained by Lois‘ side. Both of them were sobbing.

God blesses the good man. Mike will surely wake up. Yasmin wiped her tears,

Mrs. Ford, you’ve just been discharged. Go back and rest quickly. Don’t worry, I’ll handle everything Yasmin gently urged Lois to go back.

Lois felt unsteady and wanted to stay, but she couldn’t hold on any longer. She nodded and was helped by the nanny to leave.

As Steven and I passed by, Lois glared at us and exclaimed, “You’re not welcome here. Get out of here!”

I remained silent, folding my hands in front of me. After Lois left, I frowned at Yasmin.

Yasmin watched Michael through the intensive care unit observation window and asked in a deep

tone, “Stephany, don’t you want to talk to me?”

At last, she cut to the chase. She wanted to talk about the secret she mentioned on the phone.

“She doesn’t want to.” Steven stared at Yasmin warily and tightened his grip on me.

Yasmin sneered. “Stephany, you’ll be torn to shreds if you stay with wild beasts.”

Yasmin’s gaze was immediately drawn to Steven. “Steven, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid

that she’ll learn some secrets about you and Stephanie Carlson? Do you think she’s Stephanie?

She’s not! A fraud is always a fraud.”

Steven’s eyes flashed with anger, and he clenched his fingers until his knuckles were drained of

color. I felt like he was ready to attack Yasmin.

nin’s gentle and kind nature made men want to protect her. It made people trust her completely. In the past, Michael, Jack, and the others decided to believe in Yasmin instead of me.

Howe her magic seemed to have failed on Steven, Steven saw her as a villain, believing that She was feigning weakness and fragility.

Inexplicably, I felt happy deep down. At last, someone had seen through Yasmin’s facade and glimpsed her true nature, even if Steven was considered a lunatic by others.

In this complex world of truth and deception, it was hard to tell who was considered normal and who was abnormal. Who decided what was considered normal for a person?

“You don’t need to provoke Steven. Even if he loses control and kills you, you deserve it,” I warned Yasmin in a chilling tone.

Yasmin was scared of Steven, so she stepped back to keep her distance. She asked softly,” Stephany, are you sure you don’t want to talk to me about Stephanie Carlson?”

I patted Steven’s hand. “Wait for me here. Everything will be fine.”

Steven hesitated. However, after seeing how determined I was, he finally agreed.

I went up to Yasmin. “Let’s go.”

Steven furrowed his brows and glanced at the bodyguard standing not far away. “Follow her.” Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“How about you?” the bodyguard asked softly.

“Don’t worry about me,” Steven instructed the bodyguard to protect me.

As I prepared to walk through the exit door, I turned around to look at Steven. He sat on a chair patiently as if eagerly waiting for me to bring him home. After going through the exit door, I turned to Yasmin and said, “Speak up if you have something to say, but hurry.”

“I didn’t say I would tell you for free,” said Yasmin in a hoarse voice. She was deeply affected by

Michael’s accident.

“What do you want?” I gazed at Yasmin surprisingly.

“Mike is in trouble. I need you to use your influence within the Lincoln family to ensure my safety,” Yasmin said thoughtfully.

She truly amused me. “Who do you think you are, asking me to protect you with the influence of the Lincoln family? Do you consider yourself an endangered species or do you think I’m a dog lover?”

Yasmin was furious; Stephany, there’s no need for you to be defensive. Despite lacking concrete evidence of your direct connection to the killer, it’s clear that you’re imitating Stephanie and using her ways to seduce Steven. But remember, the truth can never be hidden forever!”

It’s okay. You’re so shameless. I have to be more assertive to break through you,” I retorted.

Yasmin got really agitated with me and couldn’t hold herself back anymore. She lost control and shouted, “Stephanie and Steven were in a relationship, but she lost some of her memory. The person she loved was not Michael but Steven.”

I frowned as my heart skipped a beat. I was uncertain if I could trust what Yasmin said. “Why are you telling me this?”

“Since you’ve chosen to imitate Stephanie, stop pestering and seducing Michael anymore. He belongs to me… You can’t be so greedy. You can’t have both Steven and Michael,” Yasmin said, her jealousy seeping through her words.

She likely didn’t anticipate that after getting rid of Stephanie, another woman named Stephany would become involved. Due to the intervention, Michael refused to marry her.

After all, the Bailey family was her adoptive parents‘ family. While they provided for her upbringing, they were not generous with material possessions and property. She had to carve out her own path and fight for everything.

She tried everything to marry Michael because she wanted to marry into a wealthy family.

“If you have something to say, speak now. If not, let’s end the conversation. Psycho!” I reprimanded her and walked away.

Yasmin probably didn’t expect me to be firm, so she quickly reached out to hold the exit door.

Stephany!”
