Revenge After Death ( Michael Ford ) novel Chapter 431

Since Michael was gone, nobody was around to protect Yasmin.

Yasmin was very selfish, but she had actual feelings for Michael. She was dependent on Michael and was afraid of losing him.

That was why she became jealous and fearful of Stephanie. She tried everything she could to ruin Stephanie.

But she had just lost Michael.

At the moment, it was like she lost her meaning in life.

"You killed him!" Rachel shouted. "He deserved to die, but you deserved it more!"

Zion's expression was grim too. He looked down, then said, "We should go downstairs soon."

The entirety of the seventh floor was unfurnished. It was pitch-black, and there was no electricity. There were no windows, so it was unclear if it was day or night.

The air was humid. I looked at Steven and said, "There are no manual controls on this floor, which means we can go downstairs if we locate the emergency exit. There shouldn't be any traps."

Without electricity and light, it was difficult to find the emergency exit.

"Keep your hands on the wall. I'll lead. You guys can follow me," Steven whispered.

Steven left a mark on the wall and then began to move forward.

It must've been an abandoned office building development. In case they were discovered, the mastermind left the lower floors untouched and built the killing ground on the upper floors.

The floor was very bare. It smelled like concrete, and there was nothing special about it.

After walking around the floor, we ended up at the same starting place without finding the exit.

"Where's the emergency exit?" Rachel asked.

I tugged on Steven to stop him.

"Steven…"

Steven held my hand to calm me down.

"Don't be scared. You can all stay here, and I'll look for it. If I find it, I'll knock on the floor to alert you. You can follow the sound."

I grabbed the corner of his shirt, my breath quickening.

I had to admit that I was worried about him.

What if… there was someone else with us on the same floor? The mastermind wouldn't let us leave easily.

If anything went wrong…

"Don't be scared," Steven whispered.

I clung to him.

"Why… must it always be you to take the risks? This time, I'll do it."
