Chapter 234
Grandma Rosie seemed to care more about her biological granddaughter, Ann, than about
Stephany.
“Grandma Rosie, Ann’s not coming to see you,” I told her straightforwardly, shattering her
hopes.
Grandma Rosie sighed disappointedly. “Oh well, never mind.”
Michael glanced at the time and said, “Grandma Rosie, I have to return to my ward now. Call me if you need anything, okay?”
Grandma Rosie nodded with a smile. “Will do. Stephy is so lucky to have met you, Mike.”
Steve stood by silently, his expression cold. Oddly, he didn’t try to please Grandma Rosie as he usually usually would do with others.
Something told me that he didn’t like Grandma Rosie.
“Stephy, how could your parents force you to marry into the Lincoln family? How many wedding gifts did they receive?
“Remember, don’t give all your money to your parents. I’m the one who raised you, so you should let me know in case you’ve got money, okay?” Grandma Rosie said lovingly.
Although Grandma Rosie sounded as if she was genuinely concerned about Stephany, I was taken aback. I sensed something off about her.
She was completely different from how I had imagined.
I had thought she truly cared about Stephany, but… apparently not.
“Stephy, could you give Annie a call and ask her to come visit me?” Grandma Rosie requested softly.
Perhaps still assuming Steven was an idiot, Grandma Rosie completely ignored him and continued, “Also, before I was hospitalized, your brother, Felix, mentioned wanting to buy at
house.
“Even though he’s not your biological brother, your Uncle John did raise you well when you stayed with our family, didn’t he?”
Seeing me silent, Grandma Rosie said again in a hushed tone, “Stephy, does this dimwit
Grandma Rosle seemed to care more about her biological granddaughter, Ann, than about Stephany.
“Grandma Rosle, Ann’s not coming to see you,” I told her straightforwardly, shattering her hopes.
Grandma Rosie sighed disappointedly. “Oh well, never mind.”
Michael glanced at the time and sald, “Grandma Rosle, I have to return to my word now. Call me if you need anything, okay?”
Grandma Rosie nodded with a smile. “Will do. Stephy is so lucky to have met you, Mike.”
Steve stood by silently, his expression cold. Oddly, he didn’t try to please Grandma Rosle as he usually usually would do with others.

looked at Grandma Rosie dumbfoundedly.
A 1,000–square–foot house at Huma 2nd Avenue? The most basic house in that area would cost at least 41 grand per square foot!
And she thought Steven was the one out of his mind? Had she looked at herself in the
mirror?
Why would Steven buy a house for someone completely unrelated?
“Grandma Rosie, Steven’s broke. He’s got no status or standing in the Lincoln family due to his incompetence. We’re treated poorly in that family,” I said, feigning grievance.
However, Grandma Rosie didn’t seem to give a damn about the bullying I endured.
Instead, she remarked, “So, he’s not as capable as Mike, is he? Mike is the president of a big company, so he definitely can afford a house. He seems quite interested in you. Why don’t you talk to him about this?”
“Grandma Rosie, Steven needs his rest, so I’d better take him back to his ward now. You should get some rest too. I’ll visit you another day.”
Ignoring Grandma Rosie’s request, I left the ward with Steven.
“Stephany, have you grown arrogant now that you’re back with your biological parents?” Grandma Rosie snapped furiously.
What was this old lady’s problem?
I had always believed that Stephany was being manipulated by Charles because she felt Indebted to Grandma Rosie. But after seeing Grandma Rosie’s true nature, Stephany should
have just let her be.
“Do you know how Stephany’s foster parents died?” Steven asked in a low tone as we
walked down the hallway.
At that moment, he seemed perfectly normal, nothing like a fool.
“Huh?” I genuinely had no idea how Stephany’s foster parents died.
“They died in an accident while resisting arrest,” Steven said in a low tone. “They were
human traffickers.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Revenge After Death (Michael and Stephanie)
A very good thriller in the beginning ruined by unnecessary twist and unrealistic plots. Exaggerating the story just for the sake of it. Totally disappointed...
