Revenge After Death (Michael and Stephanie) novel Chapter 222

Chapter 222 

Rachel looked at me with an odd look in her eyes for a moment and asked me softly, “If Stephie were still alive now, do you think she would truly let the matter go?” 

I scoffed and retorted sarcastically, “What is she, brain damaged? It’s only logical for her to 

let the matter go if that were the case. Otherwise, does she want to die a couple more times before seeing through things?” 

Rachel chuckled at that and suddenly hugged me tightly. 

I was a bit caught off guard. “Why are you doing this? We’re not even that close,” I said. 

“I think you’re pretty cool. I want to be friends with you,” Rachel replied and reached out to 

1. me. 

She continued, “Nice to meet you, Stephany. Let me reintroduce myself to you. My name is Rachel Qualls. Stephanie and I were the best of friends. We were super, super, super close!” 

Rachel said that we were the best of friends. She also used to tell me that when speaking 

about important things, they should be repeated thrice. 

I lowered my head and smiled. Then, I shook her hand. 

I had received a second chance at life, after all. Not only did I have to protect myself this time but also my most cherished friends. 

In fact, just as I was about to die, I had sworn something to myself. I swore that if I were 

ever given another chance in life, I would truly care and love those who truly felt the same 

about me. 

I was foolish in my past life. I needed some sense to be knocked into me to grow and 

change my ways. I learned my lesson in the end, but the price I paid for it was far too high. 

“Mr. Ford, if you keep acting crazy like this, I’m going to call the asylum and have you 

admitted,” Zion said with a frown. He genuinely thought that Michael had gone insane. 

Zion did not believe in higher powers, after all. It was impossible for him to believe in stuff 

like reincarnations and souls. 

Before Michael could say anything else, Lois and Yasmin arrived. 

“Michael!” Lois called out. She and Yasmin rushed over to hug Michael. “Why did you sneak out of the hospital like that? Are you trying to get yourself killed?” 

Yasmin’s eyes were red–rimmed too. She glared fiercely at me and barked out, “Stephany Larson, I can’t believe you’re still trying to seduce Michael by pretending to be Stephanie. Are you trying to kill him?” 

Yasmin was pinning all the blame on me. 

“She has nothing to do with this. I was the one who came looking for her,” Michael explained in a low voice. 

“Shut up!” Lois yelled angrily and slapped Michael. “You didn’t cherish Stephie properly when she was still around. Didn’t I tell you to appreciate her more? Yet you never did! What’s the use of acting like this in front of such an obvious impostor?” 

Lois was a strong and independent woman. She glared at me for a moment and said in a threatening tone, “Stephany, I don’t care why you’re imitating and learning from Stephanie. You might be doing it to get to the Lincolns or us Fords, but if you do anything to harm my 

son, I won’t let you off easy!” 

I glanced at Yasmin in that instant. It appeared that she was still very talented at inciting arguments. This was a talent she possessed since she was a kid. 

“Mrs. Ford, I’m married to Steven Lincoln. I’m even pregnant with his baby. I have not intention of plotting against your son. He’s far inferior to Steven, after all,” I said coldly. 

I continued, “Instead of suspecting what my supposed motives might be, you should really be wary about the people closest to you. The woman standing next to you is as malicious. as they come. Not only did she cause Stephanie’s death, but she also has plans to suck your family dry. 

“Do you want to know what’s the most terrifying thing about her? Michael had just gotten into an accident yet she was already thinking of ways to use him to get to the elusive. president of Crowdstar Group.” 

Yasmin paled at that. “You’re spouting nonsense! 

“Mrs. Ford, Michael, you can’t trust her words. This woman is clearly an accomplice to murder. She’s a bad person,” Yasmin said anxiously. It was clear that she felt guilty. 

I sneered and took out my phone. I paused for a moment and cursed at Steven inwardly. Damn it, I had forgotten that he had dropped my phone into the bathtub earlier. Luckily, all my recordings were uploaded to the cloud. 

After logging into my account, I pulled up the recording of the conversation Yasmin and had in the hospital the other day. 

Gather around, you two. Mrs. Ford, this is the evidence of Yasmin begging me to help her seduce the president of Crowdstar Group while your son was unconscious,” I said, 

I raised an eyebrow and tilted my chin proudly in Rachel’s direction. I had learned my 

lesson, after all. 

I had been killed by Yasmin once already. I knew to always start recording whenever I met 

her alone. 

Yasmin looked surprised as she listened along to the recording I had on my phone. She
