"He will be bailed," Steven asserted confidently that Howard would find a way to get out of detention.

Before Eason could respond, Steven ended the call abruptly. I glanced at him, feeling a twinge of worry. Even though I knew Stephany was innocent, if Howard and Peter were prepared to falsely accuse her... "Don't worry," Steven reassured me, reaching out to ruffle my hair, easing my worries.

Honestly, I was torn and confused, uncertain about what to make of my reliance on Steven.

"The police will call you in for questioning, but I've found evidence to clear your name." Steven gave me a reassuring look, urging me to take it easy, framing it as cooperating with the police investigation. "Stephany Larson... she didn't commit those crimes."

I lowered my head silently, then asked, "If Stephany Larson was an innocent person... is it fair that she ended up like this?"

In the end, Stephany was still dead. After being manipulated and schemed against, she still met her demise. And I, was just a parasite inhabiting her body.

"This world was never fair." Steven then fell silent, wrapping his arms around me.

I understood what he meant. Some things were beyond our control. But for some reasons... I couldn't shake off the guilt I felt.

Was it all just a coincidence that Stephany was manipulated and met her fate, only for me to reincarnate into her body?
