Revenge After Death (Michael and Stephanie) novel Chapter 28

Chapter 28 

Join her? You better not stain Stephanie’s path to heaven,Rachel said weakly

She supported herself to stand up. Michael, you will regret this. When you see the true colors of the woman in your arms” 

I stood behind Rachel. In a hoarse voice, I added, Michael, there’s a heavy price for betraying trust.

Michael shifted his gaze away. You’ll see the truth at my wedding,he declared

He was still holding onto a sliver of denial about my fate

As they exited the police station, Michael’s hand slipped from Yasmin’s grasp. He seemed somewhat desolate

Michael?Yasmin steadied him after noticing his troubled state. She managed to prevent him from stumbling

It’s nothing,Michael claimed as he waved his hands

Michael, could something have happened to Stephanie?Yasmin’s question was tentative

No!Michael’s voice was sharp. It cut through the air. She’s not dead.” 

Yasmin recoiled at his intensity. Her face turned pale

Michael, realizing his outburst, softened his tone. I’m sorry, Yasmin. Please go back first. I have 

matters to attend to.” 

Michael, do you still think about her?Yasmin asked as her eyes brimmed with tears

Make yourself clear, Michael,Yasmin pleaded as she followed him

You always said Stephanie was like a sister. What are you afraid of? Her death would mean she could no longer be entangled with us.” 

Michael stopped suddenly. He turned and frowned at Yasmin. She’s not dead! She will show up at our wedding.” 

And if she doesn’t?Yasmin’s voice was filled with doubt

She will. She mustMichael muttered repeatedly

I observed Michael coldly. Perhaps he was starting to believe I was truly gone. What kind of madness. would lead someone to believe I would harm myself in such a way

He knew that even a bug would scare the hell out of me

Michael sent Yasmin away with the driver and walked alone into the night. I followed, watching him with a mix of sadness and irony

I’m dead. Aren’t you relieved?I whispered hoarsely, though I knew Michael couldn’t hear me

Yet, he stopped and turned suddenly as if he sensed something. Then, looking defeated, he turned

back and massaged his forehead wearily

Michael took out his phone and opened our chat. He had my WhatsApp chat pinned at the top, which I found bitterly amusing

Stephanie, you’ve won,Michael typed.. 

I could hear his voice breaking. Come back, and I’ll call off the engagement with Yasmin.” 

He leaned against a wall, looking blighted. The revelation of the ten nails today had clearly shaken 

him

I watched Michael sarcastically as I stood right in front of him. You pushed me into the abyss when I loved you. Michael, you’re the one who killed me.” 

Michael continued to send messages 

but I could no longer respond

Michael, I am gone. No one can save me now. The despair I feel is nothing compared to what I felt 

while alive

I still remember the day Michael found out about my feelings for him. His eyes were filled with 

disgust

You’ve always been like a sister to me. We, the Ford family, took care of you, and this is how you 

repay us?”
