Chapter 183

“Our men are on their way to bring Steve in for questioning,” Zion said.

I hung up the phone and stared at Steven.

If he was the one who ordered the hit, would the driver have given out his name that easily?

Besides, Steven usually let Ewan handle things on his behalf, and Ewan would never

mention Steven’s name.

It was evident that the driver had framed Steven by alleging that he’d ordered him to hit Aunty Lois with a car.

Zion must have also been aware that Steven was framed, so he called me in advance to

give me a heads–up.

Since Michael would only face a maximum of 15 days of detention, Aunty Lois had no reason to stage this accident and jeopardize her own life.

Could it be that someone was attempting to provoke tension between the Lincolns and the Fords?

“Michael’s mother was hit by a car, so I’m heading to go to the hospital now. Stay home and wait for me, okay?” I was worried about what those ignorant netizens and the people behind this accident might do if they found Steven leaving the house.

If the feud between the Fords and the Lincolns escalated because of Steven, his position within the Lincoln family would inevitably be affected.

Not to mention, Martin would have the last laugh, and he’d be able to openly confront Steven without facing any condemnation.

“Stephie…” Steven wanted to follow me.

“Be a dear and stay home, okay?” I reminded him again. “Wait for me at home.”

Steven’s gaze turned dark, as if he were panicking. “You won’t lie to me this time… right?
