Chapter 314
“I’m telling you, if you push me too far, I won’t be the only one who won’t survive!” Dax threatened
viciously.
“Let him go! Stop hitting him…” I screamed hysterically as I was pinned to the ground.
Steven was already injured. If Dax kept hitting him, he could die.
Steven spat out blood and stared at Dax with cold eyes.
“Steven…” I cried out his name.
Steven struggled with all his might, but he hadn’t regained his strength yet.
He looked at me pitifully. He clenched his fists tightly, desperately trying to regain his strength.
“Aren’t you quite capable? Huh? Why don’t you act tough with me now? Show me!” Dax threw away his cigarette and kicked Steven hard.
I cried and shook my head, looking at Steven with anguish.
“Do you know… why Martin bailed you out but didn’t let you get close to the Lincoln Group?” Steven
laughed coldly.
His arms were tied up, and the blood on his lips contrasted sharply with his pale face.
“Because… apart from you, he has another illegitimate child. He’s a promising finance student from the prestigious Huma University, a truly… clean and unblemished heir.” Steven laughed cruelly.
Dax had been a pawn that Martin was ready to abandon from the very beginning.
I wasn’t very clear about the Lincoln family’s situation, but Dax’s sudden attack on me and Steven must
have been triggered by something.
If it were Martin’s people, it would have been enough to kill me and Steven during the car accident. There
would be no need to capture us.
“That old fool wants to sacrifice me to save his son. He wants me to bear all the blame alone?” Dax
laughed.
Apparently, he already knew that he was the pawn.
“All of this… It was all your calculation, wasn’t it? You purposely intensified the conflicts within the Lincoln family, making us help you eliminate James and Ignatius. Then, you watched us tear each other apart.
You were watching the Lincoln family slowly fall into ruin.”
Dax suddenly understood and took a step back, laughing maniacally as he looked at Steven with a hint of fear in his eyes.
He was afraid of Steven?
How was that possible… Steven had been wandering all this time…
Chapte 314
2/2
“You really are a lunatic…” Dax’s eyes filled with fear, gripping the baton in his hand tightly. “As long as kill you, it’ll all be over.”
I looked at Dax in horror, struggling and secretly untying the rope behind me. “Dax! What’s gotten into you? He’s been wandering all this time. How could he plot against you? The Lincoln family has done so much evil. You’re reaping what you sow. Why put the blame on Steven? Don’t you dare kill him!”
Dax sneered and glanced at me, walking over to grab my hair. “Since you’re a lunatic… I want to see if you
have any weaknesses.”
A hint of panic flashed in Steven’s eyes. He struggled with all his might. “Dax! I’m the one plotting against you and the Lincoln family! Come at me!”
Dax laughed maniacally, perhaps realizing he was driven to a dead end. He couldn’t inherit the Lincoln
Group and clear his name. He would always be a pawn in Martin’s hand, serving Martin’s illegitimate son
forever.
He had to live on the edge every day, risking his life in exchange for the glory of the illegitimate son? Why?
“You care about her baby, right?” Dax’s baton landed on my stomach.
My breath froze for a moment. I looked at Dax in terror.

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...
