Chapter 164

“She wouldn’t dare,” Michael said confidently. “I have my ways of making her come and beg me for help.”

Meanwhile, I was hiding behind the door and only sighed in relief after Michael’s car drove away.

Michael was someone who would do anything to achieve his goal. So, even though I may have escaped his clutches this time, I might not be so lucky next time.

My guess was that Michael had found out about the connection Stephany had with the orphaned children. But he still didn’t have anything concrete between her and the killer.

I took a deep breath. I could already feel a headache coming on.

What sort of relation did Stephany Larson have with the killer?

Did she help and feed those orphans to have them kill other people? Was Stephany such a terrifying woman?

Based on the school reunion before, I could tell that Stephany herself was a cowardly woman who was easily manipulated and had low self–esteem.

Could she have grown cruel and malignant after being pushed around for so long?

I was worried that if I continued looking into this matter, I might not be able to recover from Stephany’s dirty laundry. What’s worse, I might end up getting imprisoned myself before we actually found the killer.

That would really be too terrible.
