Revenge After Death ( Michael Ford ) novel Chapter 285

Chapter 285 

Michael seemed to desperately want me to believe in him. 

“Michael” Yasmin called out, as if she couldn’t bear to be separated from him for a single second. 

Michael frowned and remained standing, as Yasmin walked over to hug his arm. He did not push her 

away, but looked at me worriedly, as if afraid that I might be jealous. 

“Wait for me in the car,” Michael told Yasmin. She hesitated. 

“There are reporters out there. The police have brought Steven away, you’ll be fine,” he continued in a low 

voice. 

Yasmin gritted her teeth and glared at me begrudgingly. She then reluctantly left. 

“Stephie-” Michael started to say, as if wanting to explain to me. 

“You’re such a gentleman, Mr. Ford,” I remarked sarcastically. 

Michael said, “She had once saved me after all, Stephie. I promised that I would keep her safe. The killer already had their eyes on her, and the police cannot provide round–the–clock protection for her. I‘ 

so that yo 

He was trying to make me understand him as he said, “I’m only doing this to find out the truth, so can see Steven’s true colors.” 

“Oh, so you’re doing this for me now?” I said with a laugh. How blind had I been before to be seeing Michael with rose–tinted glasses out of gratitude?

“Sometimes, it is indeed possible for one to confuse gratitude and love. I can empathize with that,” I said Indifferently. 

Michael’s expression turned embarrassed as he said, “Stephie, I’m not–1-” 

“Even if you refuse to admit it, Michael, I’ll still have to tell you the truth. Stephanie Carlson is already dead. The person standing before you hows Stephany Larson,” I interrupted him indifferently. 

Michael’s words were stuck in his throat as his eyes became red. His mouth opened multiple times but 

nothing came out. 

In the end, he lowered his head and laughed bitterly, saying, “I know that you are Stephanie Carlson.” 

“Look how you’ve ruined the funeral now, Stephany! Look at what’s going on now!” After seeing how Ignatius‘ body and Steven were taken away by the police, the relatives of the Lincoln family all but rushed toward me to make a fuss. 

One of the men was full of vigor as he rushed forward to ask me for an explanation. He said, “Stephany, you troublemaker! There hasn’t been a moment of peace since you married into the Lincoln family! 

“First, something happened to James. Then, Ignatius is now dead, Look what you’ve brought upon this family!”

“He’s right! Ignatius can’t even rest in peace now. You’d surely be the end of the Lincoln family!” a woman started scolding me as well. 

“Go cause a scene elsewhere! The police have to provide us an explanation on whether Mr. Lincoln Senior had died of natural causes or was murdered,” I said with a frown. 

I then stepped back alertly. These people were in cahoots with Martin. If they were to accidentally hurt me and my baby, they would only be considered causing unintentional injuries. 

As expected, the man was planning to push me. Michael frowned before reaching out to stop him by the wrist. He said, “Stay away from her!” 

The man was stunned. He was somewhat afraid of Michael still. “You’ve got some capabilities, haven’t you, Stephany? Even Mr. Ford is protecting you now!” 

My gaze landed on Michael’s wrist, there was an ugly scar that stood out prominently. It looked like it was from cutting his own wrist. 

Michael subconsciously retrieved his hand in a hurry when he saw that I was looking at his wrist. He hid his hand behind his back and said, “It’s unsafe here. Follow me.”
