Revenge After Death (Michael and Stephanie) novel Chapter 376

I glanced up, realizing it was already raining.

"Everything's fine now," Steven reassured me gently.

"You knew I would be okay, didn't you?" I looked at him.

Steven's gaze flickered, then he shook his head. "I believed you'd be fine."

His words were ambiguous, and I could tell he was changing the subject.

"Let's go home." Steven led me to the car.

On the way home, he told me that Michael had regained consciousness. I nodded indifferently; it didn't really concern me whether he was conscious or not.

"Yasmin has been by his side all the while. It's highly likely that he'll think Yasmin is you," Steven said, as if he wanted to prepare me in advance, worried that I might not be able to handle the shock.

"Good for him." I nodded.

Michael had always been blinded to the truth anyway. This might be best for him too.

…

As Steven and I had anticipated, Michale seemed quite certain that Yasmin was "Stephanie Carlson" and kept her close for protection.

Meanwhile, I had been patiently waiting at home for the news about the human traffickers.

Zion mentioned that he had been called back to investigate the human trafficking lead. Rachel had also visited me a few times, mentioning that Zion had left Huma for a mission, which seemed quite dangerous. I suspected it was related to the human trafficking lead.

As I had predicted, Howard took all the blame, so the police had nothing on Peter. However, I hadn't anticipated that Howard had been diagnosed with cancer long ago and needed medical parole. In other words, he could be released on bail.

Steven had guessed correctly; Howard did indeed have a way to get out of the detention.
