Chapter 271
The sound of laughter sounded.
It was Steven laughing coldly.
I wished for him to hurry and escape.
Michael was nothing but a scoundrel.
"Stephie won't go with you." Michael's voice was deep. Then, he ordered his bodyguards to take action.
"Did you actually think I came alone?" Steven chuckled. His voice was cold and hoarse with an unnerving edge.
"Mike..." Yasmin's trembling voice came from outside the door.
As I forced my eyes open, I saw a tall figure in a cap holding a knife to Yasmin's throat.
Steven didn't come alone.
I felt rather relieved.
"Mike..." Yasmin's face was pale with fear. Half of her face was swollen from a burn, and her long hair was cut short due to being singed by the fire.
"Steven!" Michael looked at Steven with intense anger.
Steven scoffed and there was a frightening chill in his eyes. "What's more important to you? Your lifesaver or your personal interests?"
Yasmin, who couldn't help but tremble, cried out, "Mike, save me."
Michael gripped his hands tightly and glanced back at Yasmin.
Clearly, he was unable to decide.
He knew if Steven lost control, Yasmin would likely be killed.
I struggled to sit up and shook my head to clear the dizziness . Though I felt a bit confused, I was mostly okay.
An unexpected advantage seemed to be that Stephany's body, as a new vessel for my soul, didn't fully align with the drugs' effects.
However, Peter was a dangerous element to me. His hypnosis treatments had a significant impact on me.
I needed to stay away from him. He was like my biggest threat.
Steven had a moment of panic when he saw me wake up. Fear flashed in his eyes.
He probably feared that I might have forgotten him again.
