Revenge After Death

Chapter 178

Steven’s fingers stiffened as he looked at me. “Steve doesn’t lie. Stephie lies.”

My heart skipped a beat, and I shifted my glance elsewhere, feeling somewhat guilty.

Was he implying that he’d never lied, whereas I was the one who lied a lot?

The crowd surrounded Michael and were asking him why he, the president of the Ford Group, was involved in an abduction and illegal activities.

But Michael merely got into the car with a solemn face. “No comment,” he said.

Obviously, the reporters were here for Michael. If the media reported this, it would definitely have an impact on the Ford Group.

Then, Michael gave me a cold stare and silently left with the police.

“The president of the Ford Group was involved in an abduction!”

“Why did he do that?”

The reporters murmured among themselves while the onlookers commented that Michael had gone mad.

The Ford Group’s stock price would be severely impacted if this news got out.
