Revenge After Death ( Michael Ford ) novel Chapter 193

Chapter 193 

Ewan drove to a villa in the city center

The houses there were really pricey

Dad mentioned before that it was a fancy neighborhood built by the Lincoln Group. It was a place we couldn’t afford even if we worked hard for an extra 20 years

Even though Steven had been making money from prizes, scholarships, and his jobs since he joined the advanced classes at 14, he still couldn’t afford a house here

And ever since Mr. Andy passed away, the Lincolns didn’t seem like they would give 

Steven any money

And even though Steven had recently taken over the Lincoln Group, he didn’t have much real power yet and was still being suppressed. He was simply stuck in a passive state

Howdid he afford to buy a house here?I asked Ewan in disbelief

Ewan remained silent for a while, seemingly avoiding my question

Then, he said, Mr. Lincoln is just awesome. He’s a genius.” 

The car soon came to a stop at a villa in the middle of the lake

I was stunned by the surroundings

This place was definitely the priciest spot in Huma

This house of Steven’sHe couldn’t have bought it himself, right

As I stepped into the yard, I was stunned

The yard was filled with my favorite tulips, and the walls were covered in blooming roses

Stephie, we’ll have our own place

StephieI’ll keep you safe. I won’t let anyone hurt you again.” 

Suddenly, a wave of dizziness washed over me

That familiar headache returned, and my memories slowly resurfaced

Every memory I recalled was related to Steven

SteveI went into the house and dashed into the living room looking for Steven

this bedroom was locked, the curtains pulled shut tight, and not a glimmer of light was slipping through

Steve! Open the door!I was getting anxious, afraid that Steven would keep hurting himself

Mr. Lincoln isn’t doing too good. I’ll send someone to knock on the door,Ewan said, sounding a bit worried

Hey, Steve, I gotta talk to you,I whispered. I was really scared now

Whether you’re Stephanie or notsave him,Ewan bowed his head and said in a low 

tone

Ewan’s plea was in the word save

It felt like Steven’s time was running out

SteveI banged on the door

Don’t come in and don’t look at me,Steven said urgently. He didn’t want me to 

witness his distress

This time, I didn’t avoid it. I admitted that I was Stephanie

Steve, I rememberthe first time we met at the orphanage.” 

All of a sudden, the room went quiet

Then, the door swung open

Steven stared at me in a panic. His hands were stained with blood, and he trembled as he held my face

StephieYou remember everything?” 

What was he so scared of? Was he hoping I’d remember everything, or was he dreading 

it

I said, SteveI only recall us meeting at the orphanage when we were kids

During the year of our college entrance exam, it felt like I’d asked you to wait for me. What’s our relationship, really?I asked Steven as tears started to well up in my eyes

Steven’s eyes reddened. You remember me now…” Even though it was only of our past
