Chapter 34
“Rachel!” Jack and Michael’s friends rushed forward to block her.
But Zion, who had followed Rachel, furrowed his brow and said, “Everyone, be quiet.
The police had laid in wait everywhere. They were waiting to see if I would show up. I found it funny because I was right beside them.
Unfortunately, no one could see me.
“Michael, you’re the one who killed her. She won’t come back!!!
But as time passed, there was still no sign of me. Even the surroundings of the wedding venue were filled with people Michael had arranged in advance.
Still, there was no sign of me, no sign at all.
Somehow, Michael ditched Yasmin and the guests and left as if he had lost control of himself.
“Mike…”
Yasmin followed after him with red eyes. “The guests have arrived, and my family is here. You can’t do this, you promised me…”
“I’m sorry, Yas. I can’t marry you,” said Michael. He then removed the flower from his chest and
turned to leave.
“Michael!” Yasmin watched him leave.
Upset, she gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. She couldn’t help but shout, “Michael, you’ll never find Stephanie! She’s dead!”
After she had said that, she seemed to regret her words. Her face turned pale, her eyes filled with
panic.
Michael stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Yasmin. “What do you know?”
Yasmin’s breathing sped up. She tried to change the topic.
“I just… spoke without thinking. Mike, please stop making a scene and come with me. My parents are here…”
Michael frowned. His expression was unpleasant as he walked up to Yasmin.
“Do you know something? Tell me!” Michael seemed to lose control as he grabbed her by the shoulder, demanding answers.
I had never seen Michael treat her so harshly before. It was quite unsettling for me.
I sneered as I stood by the side. Of course, she knew I was dead.
“On the 13th and 14th, we asked Stephanie to wear a red dress to Serenity Lane. Why did she appear in
Chapter 34
Sunset Alley on the 15th?” Michael lowered his voice. He looked as if he was interrogating her.

I didn’t know if he found anything, but I was somewhat surprised that Michael would be suspicious of
Yasmin.
“… I don’t know. “Yasmin nervously took a step back.
Michael clenched his fists. He scrutinized Yasmin without saying a word. Zion and Rachel had been waiting, anticipating my appearance and arrival.
“Stephanie will come. She loves Mike so much. She loves him shamelessly. How could she not show up?” Jack muttered quietly
They all firmly believed that someone like me, who loved Michael to the core, would surely appear at the wedding reception to try to stop it.
But what puzzled me was that it was supposed to be the wedding of both Michael and Yasmin. Yet only Yasmin’s family was present. None of Michael’s relatives showed up, not even his aunt.
“Mike, she’s not here.” Michael’s friends had also arrived. They shook their heads, saying they had carefully observed the surroundings and hadn’t seen me.
