NovelEnglishChapter 675 "Did Joel go missing?" I looked at Zion and asked.
"Where's Michael?" Zion looked atwarily.
Clearly, Joel was part of Steven and Michael's final plan.
"Michael slept poorly last night and becsick today. He's currently sleeping." I walked over to Zion and continued, 'Would you believeif I said I'm Stephanie Carlson, Zion?" Zion was taken aback, looking atwith a frown.
"She's not!" Ashton ran out and denied my words.
"Now she's not," he said with reddening eyes, throwing himself into Zion's arms. "She's not my mom, Zion!" Zion was perplexed. After all, Steven did not tell anyone other than Joel and Michael before doing all of this.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI looked down at Ashton, who was hugging Zion, and frowned.
His eyes were red and filled with anger. How could a child have so much anger in him? He was truly disobedient I reached out to pull Ashton by his collar and smiled at Zion. 'He refused to eat properly, so I gave him a scolding. Now, he's throwing a tantrum. I just want to know where Steven is." I looked at Zion anxiously. "Daisy usedto threaten Steven to help her with her reincarnation project. I don't know why I woke up in Una's body." Zion remained wary as he looked at me. It was as if he couldn't believe my words, but at the stime, he was trying to digest them.
"I have things to attend to. I need to find Joel and capture Carol. You..." A staunch materialist like Zion was also starting to waver.
After all, the gradual exposure of the laboratories and the experiments that could change one's beliefs had truly shaken his confidence.
I stood frowning as I watched Zion hurriedly step away, his face paling "We detected Steven's DNA in the remains of sof the destroyed human tissues found in the laboratory underneath the university town. There's a high chance that he's dead." Zion suddenly stopped while walking into the living room. He wasn't planning to tellin the first place, but he probably changed his mind since I told him that I was Stephanie.
He lowered his head and spoke in a hoarse voice. He dared not turn around or look at me. He was afraid that I was truly Stephanie and would find horror, fear, and hurt in my gaze.
I stood frozen in place. I found it somewhat hard to breathe, but I believed that I was clear-headed and aware. I knew that it was impossible forto feel upset for him.
But why did my body start trembling uncontrollably? Zion turned around to glance atbefore quickly walking away.
I remained standing still. My grip on Ashton's collar grew tighter.
How could Steven die? He was so smart-he wouldn't die. He wasn't a fool. Why would he throw himself into danger again and again just to ensure that I live on? Did he not know that my love and feelings for him in the past were all just an act? But somehow, my face felt numb. Tears started dripping onto the back of my hands.
Was I crying? Why was I crying? Why was it so hard forto breathe? "Letgo!" Ashton yelled, still struggling.
I looked down at him and raised my hand, about to hit him.
Such a disobedient brat had to be disciplined until he gave in. Wasn't this my usual way of doing things? But somehow, I couldn't bring myself to hit him.
"Letgo! I want my dad! I want my dad!" Ashton continued to struggle and cry.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt that moment, he was just like an ordinary child crying for his father.
At the end of the hallway, Xan stood holding her Rubik's cu k's cube with m reddening eyes. She then turned around and ran out of the door. With a frown, I looked down numbly at my hand. Ashton bitand ran after Xan right as I loosened up.
My feet felt heavy. Deep down, a voice was urgingto run-after Ithem or there would be danger. Yet, I remained in place. "The both of them will stay by your side on my behalf, Stephie." I seemed to hear Steven's voice while in a daze.
I should have hated him for messing up my plan and forcefully messing with my memories. Because of him, I had to live like a fool who was played around by people like Michael and Yasmin. But why couldn't I stop my tears from flowing? "Ashton! Xan!" I eventually ran after them.
