Chapter 255
Ewan took a deep breath. “You’re okay now. You fainted, and I brought you back. I hadn’t expected that you’d become a target. It’s my negligence.”
I sensed Ewan had more to say, but he didn’t.
What had I done?
When I woke up, I noticed blood under my fingernails.
“We should bring her for a check–up at the hospital. She’s pregnant.” Zion and Rachel were concerned
about me.
“I want to go find Steve,” I said quietly.
Rachel shook her head. “Go to the hospital first. Steven has search and rescue personnel looking for him. If you go, it’ll only cause more trouble. Besides, you’re pregnant.”
My eyes went red. I had no choice but to enter the car.
“Mr. Lincoln will be fine because you’re waiting for him,” Ewan suddenly said before I got into the car. He
said Steven would be fine.
Tears instantly gathered in my eyes, and my heart ached terribly.
“Don’t die.
“Steven, don’t die.” I prayed to myself.
*These are all alive. This one still has a breath.” The police checked the yard. Those who came to kill me
were all alive. I breathed a sigh of relief.
“Stephie, don’t be scared.” Rachel saw me shivering and hugged me.
I looked out blankly. Am I scared?
It didn’t seem like it.
Except for worrying about Steven, I didn’t seem to feel any other emotions.
“Stephany!”
As soon as the car arrived at the hospital, I saw Michael.
He got out of the car and looked at me somewhat nervously, “I heard about Steven. Are you okay?”
He seemed worried about me.
I frowned instinctively and moved away from him. “It’s none of your business.”
“Stephie,” he called my name nervously.
I ignored him.

But he seemed like a lingering ghost and kept following me.
Ewan went to find Steven, and Zion helped the police at the scene. Only Rachel stayed with me.
“Can’t you have some dignity? She’s Stephany. Can’t you just get lost?” Rachel scolded Michael.
“How could you be so shameless? Stephie was so kind to you. She gave you all her goodwill. Was that how you should treat her?”
Michael seemed deaf to her words. He was probably used to Rachel scolding him.
He followed me around. He would accompany me to any tests I went for.
I was annoyed and told him to leave, but he refused.
“Michael, you’re really annoying.” I was getting angry.
“Stephie, I went to the Lincolns to find you. Dax’s hand was injured, and Martin got into the car with a few bodyguards. The Lincolns said that when Steven had an accident, you returned to the Lincolns and stabbed Dax’s hand with a fruit knife and even almost killed Martin.” He seemed more convinced that I was Stephanie.
My body stiffened in shock as I looked at Michael. “What are you talking about?”
Michael looked at me with flickering eyes. He grabbed my wrist tightly as if excited. “Don’t you remember what you did? The Lincolns‘ servants said that if you hadn’t fainted suddenly, Martin would have been killed by you.”
I frowned. I didn’t believe Michael’s words. Still, he had no reason to lie.
Could it be that this was what Ewan wanted to tell me about?
I had a short memory loss after I found out about Steven’s car accident. Was this what I had done?
How did I do it?
“Stephie, don’t listen to his nonsense. You can’t even handle an apple with a knife.
teeth. Rachel came to her senses from shock.
However, soon Rachel fell silent.
This was because Zion sent her a video.
It was surveillance footage of Steven’s villa.
In the footage, the dog rushed up and bit the person who wanted to kill me.

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...
