Revenge After Death

Chapter 208

At last, Zion emerged, wearing a somber expression and brimming with fury. He ignored Rachel me, and Steven. Then, he angrily walked past us, got into the car, and slammed the door shut.

Rachel followed him. “How can he possibly be this stubborn?”

Steven put his hand in his pocket and grabbed my collar. He pulled me into his arms to protect me from Zion’s reckless driving that could’ve crushed my toes.

“As stubborn as a mule!” Rachel angrily scolded Zion while also looking at Phil with concern. She said, “Simon’s death isn’t Zion’s problem. He…”

“But Officer Landon’s punch caused his death. If they pursue this case, Officer Landon may lose his job this time,” Phil explained with deep concern.

Rachel was momentarily shocked before speaking in a nervous tone, “Is it really that serious? Simon clearly provoked Zion on purpose. It’s obvious…‘

“This is part of their plan,” Steven whispered to me.

It was unclear what punishment Zion would get. It would be good if he didn’t go to jail, but he might lose his job.

I froze in place. At that moment, I felt the sheer horror of the hidden murderer. I constantly felt a chill on my back as if countless eyes were fixated on us and countless forces were controlling us.

Those geniuses viewed ordinary people like us as mere puppets. They could easily manipulate and control us. They could kill people freely. They could make the police lose their jobs and prevent Zion from participating in the murder case.

The mastermind was clever. He manipulated Simon, who was dying, to trick Zion into making a mistake. He successfully got rid of Zion.

The chilling sensation in my fingertips intensified, and the fear of the mysterious and formidable talent reached its peak. Compared to absolute geniuses, I could only be seen as a fool among fools, just as insignificant as ants.

“Steven, he’s so scary.” The mastermind was truly a terrifying figure.

Steven’s hand tightened around mine, and his gaze deepened. “Then let’s be scarier than him. Don’t be afraid, Stephie. I’ll always be here with you.”

Upon our return to the hospital, we found that Michael had been transferred to the intensive care unit. Yasmin remained by Lois‘ side. Both of them were sobbing.
