Revenge After Death

"I don't buy it." Rachel shook her head. "Stephanie Carlson will never reincarnate onto Yasmin. Even the thought of it is gross! She'd rather die."

I burst into laughter, dispelling the gloomy mood that had surrounded me for days.

Lowering my head, I wiped away the tears at the corners of my eyes. "Yeah, if I woke up and found out I had become the person I hated most, I'd probably choose to die straight away."

Seeing me smile, Rachel held my wrist and said, "Don't overthink it. Yasmin may think she can fool everyone, but those who truly care about Stephanie Carlson won't be deceived. Does she seriously think she can imitate every detail and feeling of a person?"

I agreed; Yasmin was just wasting her time.

However, her disguise wasn't meant to make Rachel and the others believe her; it was to deceive Michael and Steven.

Michael had been brainwashed and manipulated by Peter long ago, so I wasn't surprised he would fall into Yasmin's disguise.

I gave Steven a call, but he declined it. This was the first time he had ever declined my call, which worried me.

"There's no way Steven will be fooled by her." Rachel sighed. "Stephie... you really should try to have some faith in him sometimes. Isn't it exhausting to keep suspecting someone?"

Rachel always seemed to see through my thoughts.
