Revenge After Death

Chapter 690

"Stephanie, he asked you to bury this with him if he dies." Linda pointed at the box in my hand before turning

to leave.

She stopped when she was at the entrance. She then said, 'I'm really envious of you. His love was too pure." Steven's life and love seemed to be devoted entirely to Stephanie from the moment he met her.

It was something inexplicable scientific-even he couldn't make sense of it.

After Linda left, I placed the wooden box aside and opened the letter from Steven.

The letter read, "Stephanie, you probably would've regained all your memories by the time you're reading this. I'm sorry I acted of my own accord. I always thought that if I could just help you escape your darkness, you could live the life you wanted.

"I know that you've always had a hard time understanding emotions and loving someone. I also know that you've been pretending and imitating ways to love me. But despite knowing that you'd never truly love me, I still couldn't help but fall in love with you.

"I hope that you could live well, that you could discover the meaning of life and appreciate the beauty of this world. I can't predict what the future may look like, but I'll do everything I can to help you achieve the life you want-for you to feel and embrace the warmth, and to look at sunsets and starry skies.
