Chapter 602 So, this whole thing was targeted at Joel.
They were planning to conduct ssort of experiment in order to prove that Joel was actually Simeon. Was it something like an emotional experiment? Just like how they usedto test Steven. And just like how they used Steven's feelings towardto determine that I was indeed Stephanie Carlson.
"But that's not it. The reason why the emotional experiment was valuable and meaningful is because you love me. Does it work the sway with hatred as well?" I asked, intrigued by it.
Joel and Eason were sworn enemies, and they were both men. "Aren't they sworn enemies?" Steven coughed before stammering, "Your cognitive world may not comprehend it, but feelings... aren't about soul connection. They're also unrelated to gender." I was rather confused. It was indeed in my cognitive blind spot.

After following Steven into the car, I watched the way Eason was driving distractedly.
"Um, it might be dangerous for him to drive now" Eason hit the gas and sped away before I could even finish my sentence.
I experienced the terrifying sensation of a roller coaster for the first time. My survival instinct kicked in as Thugged Steven tight. "Life's still worth living, Eason!" Eason suddenly jerked the steering wheel hard. He had gone mad! "You shouldn't behave like this, Officer Grant! Let's talk it out-"I hugged Steven tight and mumbled," What's got into him now?" "I don't know." Steven was considerably calmer than I was.
Eason sped away throughout the journey, forcefully completing a 30-minute journey in under 20 minutes.
I took a deep breath and got out of the car. I then whispered to Steven, "Do police officers not get fined for speeding?" "They do," Steven answeredseriously.
I noticed that something wasn't right with the way Eason was acting. "Is he going to be fine walking away like this?" Steven took out his phone and called Joel. "Eason has gone mad." "I'm taking an exam here!" Joel seemed to be in the middle of a placement exam. It was almost tfor his college entrance exam soon.
"He bumped into Logan Cooper from the advanced class today," Steven added.
Joel fell silent on the other end of the call. I heard him turning in his paper early shortly after. "These questions are too easy, sir. I'm totally wasting my tand life here. I'll take my leave now. It's super urgent!" He then ended the call soon after. Steven and I both looked at each other.
"How did you find out that Joel was actually Simeon?" I was curious about Steven and Simeon's story.

"His attention-seeking behavior and neuroticism are irreplaceable. It's just like how Al can never replace m humans The way Steven had said it sounded deep. To put it simply, he was calling Simeon a neurotic attention seeker who can't be impersonated. "Besides, he was the one who escaped and found me." Steven looked atand started tellingabout Simeon and his story.
"Back then, during the fire... It wasn't that I didn't want to escape... It wasn't because of...my selfishness e that caused Simeon to die. It wasn't that "Steven lowered his head as he recalled the horrifying memories of his past. I held his hands tightly, signaling for him not to be afraid. They were all in the past now.
Many had misunderstood Steven after that incident. They believed that he was too stubborn and refused to leave the orphanage. They believed E.
that it was because he refused to leave that room that he ended up being burned, even causing Simeon's death. Yet, only Simeon and Steven knew what the actual truth was.
