| looked up at him.
“I won't change,” he said. Avoiding eye contact, his fair cheeks turned slightly red.
Hearing that, | was stunned for a moment. Then, the mockery in my smile intensified.
What was it that he was claiming he wouldn't change? The fact that he was takingas a substitute for someone else? “If you won't change, why are you so kind to me? We've only known each other for a few days, right? | questioned.
Steven and Stephany hadn't known each other for long either.
“Because you're Stephanie,” Steven suddenly said seriously.
Hearing him say my nin such a way made my chest tighten. It was clear he was still treating Stephany as a substitute.
“Stephanie...” | murmured. | always knew Steven was calling for Stephanie instead of Stephany.
“What if you've mistakenfor someone else?” | cautiously probed, fearing he might react aggressively like last time.
“I know you're Stephanie.” He reached for my fingers and stated firmly, “No matter how you change, | will always recognize you.” He looked too serious, and his intensity was makinga bit uneasy.

If | were to say this, people would probably think | was mentally ill and sendto a psychiatric hospital.
But Steven, the widely-proclaimed lunatic, firmly believed that | was Stephanie, Was he deluding himself, or had he genuinely discovered something? “How... How did you find out it’s me?” | asked in a low voice.
Steven held my fingers tightly and said softly, “The moment you opened your eyes, | knew you were Stephanie,” It was clear his words were just a delusion of a lunatic rather than a true discovery.

“It’s okay if you don’t remember me...” Steven hugged me. “I'll stay with you.” As if he was forgivingfor something, he softly said he would be with me.
My heart was beating at a strange pace. It was a feeling | had never experienced before.
He was saying | didn’t remember him. Did | forget him? Did he play a role in my life? Why couldn’t f remember at all? The driver cto pick up Steven and me. Coincidentally, we witnessed Michael leaving Yasmin alone to head to the hospital. He drove away with an uneasy expression.
Leaning on my chin, | stared out the window and kept an eye on Michael.
“You want to know where he’s going, don’t you?” Steven asked. He then instructed the driver, ” Follow him.” | looked at Steven in surprise. This guy was indeed something else... Could he read minds or something? | didn’t say anything and quickly averted my gaze. | was too afraid to look into Steven's eyes.

The driver discreetly followed Michael as he drove toward the outskirts.
