Revenge After Death ( Michael Ford ) novel Chapter 385

Howard eventually crawled over. He lay on the table in a panic, desperately eating the leftovers that Yasmin had left behind. He was attempting to regain his strength.

Meanwhile, the four of us were still at a stalemate. Joel glanced at me surprisingly as if to acknowledge that I had finally made a clever move.

Yasmin didn't appear afraid. "Do you dare to kill me?

"Give it a try," I said with a feigned sense of composure. I pressed the dagger against her carotid artery, its sharp edge grazing her skin.

Michael's expression turned stormy as he scolded with evident anger. "Stephany Larson!"

Without a doubt, he referred to me as Stephany. He was convinced that Yasmin was actually Stephanie.

I smirked. "Ha... If you wish to spare her life, put down the food."

Michael had no option but to take over the package from Yasmin. He opened it and put down the food. Joel grabbed a portion enough for us to share and ushered me to a secluded spot in the corner.

I gazed warily at Yasmin and Michael, whispering, "Joel... they are dangerous."

The mastermind was no longer the real danger here, but rather everyone who got caught.

"Let's go and assist Steven." After eating some cakes, I sensed a slight return of strength. Hence, I proceeded to locate Steven with food and a bottle of milk.

He was assisting the woman who was a victim of domestic abuse in searching for Carol. I hurried over and promptly handed the cake to Steven.

Steven knocked on the door while eating and helped the people inside find the keys. He walked through each room without showing any emotion, assisting everyone to escape.

In contrast to Michael and Yasmin's indifference, this lunatic and the person previously suspected of being a murderer appeared to possess a greater sense of humanity.

I asked softly, "Steve, most of the people locked up here were from the orphanage in the past. They've all harmed you and were the main ones responsible for Simmy's death. Wouldn't it be better if they stayed here and died?"

Steven fell silent. "They are indeed guilty, and it is the law and divine justice that should be responsible for punishing them. Not us. Not him."
