Revenge After Death ( Michael Ford ) novel Chapter 195

Chapter 195 

StephieI’d barely hung up the phone when Steven started his act

“Ow, it hurts.Steven raised his hand to show me the wound on his wrist

I suspected that he’d caught wind of my chat with Yasmin and was now scheming to stop me from leaving

Didn’t the doctor take care of it?” I held Steven’s wrist and glanced at it. Why would hurt yourself when you know it’s painful?” 

With a hint of sadness in his eyes, Steven whispered, Stephie, how about we move out and live somewhere else?” 

He didn’t want me to stay at the Lincoln residence any longer and preferred to leave Ignatius there to fend for himself

We’ve got a place.He gazed at me with determination, wanting to convey to me that 

this was our home

I took a moment to gather my thoughts and glanced around

Not only were the flowers in the yard ones I loved, but even the room decorations were tailored to my preferences

It appeared that he had truly been making continuous efforts all this while to create

home with me

SteveThis villa is expensive. Did you buy it or rent it?I asked suspiciously

Steven’s eyes shifted slightly. I rented it” 

I nodded in agreement. If you don’t want to go back to the Lincoln residence, we’ll stay here.” 

Steven was the heir of the Lincoln family. Of course, he could easily afford the rent with 

the monthly trust payment

Finally happy, Steven didn’t seem to be feeling any pain from his wound anymore

Your foot and calf injuries haven’t fully healed yet. If you keep hurting yourself, I’ll leave you.I tried to make him heed my warning by threatening to leave

Sure enough, Steven was terrified

He nervously glanced at me and the leave” 

Then stop hurting yourself.” 

puned 

Steven remained silent and simply held me tight, unwilling to loosen his grip

I’m going out tonight. Just stay home and get some rest. I’ll come straight here to be with you when I get back,I whispered, trying to reassure him

I hadn’t yet remembered much about my time with Steven, but the memories of our childhood meeting felt like they were deeply affecting me

If Steven and the orphanage were really that significant to me, why did I specifically forget about them

Yasmin was also from the orphanage

And in my memories, the girl who admired my dress must have been the late Mandy

Yasmin, on the other hand, was the girl who always followed Mandy. She’d looked weak, but she’d coldly watch and even find joy in othersmisfortune

Ever since she was a child, Yasmin always had a mean streak in her

On our way back, I questioned Howard about the time when Stephanie was bullied by some boys for wearing a red dress

Based on my recollection, Howard wasn’t part of the event and didn’t initiate the tearing of my clothes

Howard responded, Back then, Stephanie’s father was in talks with Mr. Hanks about funding the orphanage while his own daughter was getting bullied there

“Later, Mr. Hanks punished Steven and those who bullied Stephanie, but Yasmin was the only one who wasn’t implicated.” 

This indicated that Yasmin had always been a clever person who was skilled at stirring up 

trouble from a young age

“Stephie! I’m in so much pain.Steven suddenly gripped my hand tighter. Stephie, don’t leave. Stay with me, please?” 

I looked at Steven suspiciously

Chapter 195 

Did he overhear my phone call, or did he have a sense of what might happen later

Steve, I have to go out.I wanted to uncover the truth and reclaim my memories. I couldn’t just reacquaint myself with Steven again so naively

It wouldn’t be fair to Steven, nor to myself
