Chapter 209
Yasmin's gentle and kind nature made men want to protect her. It made people trust her completely. In the past, Michael, Jack, and the others decided to believe in Yasmin instead of
me.
However, her magic seemed to have failed on Steven. Steven saw her as a villain, believing that she was feigning weakness and fragility.
Inexplicably, I felt happy deep down. At last, someone had seen through Yasmin's facade and glimpsed her true nature, even if Steven was considered a lunatic by others.
In this complex world of truth and deception, it was hard to tell who was considered normal and who was abnormal. Who decided what was considered normal for a person?
"You don't need to provoke Steven. Even if he loses control and kills you, you deserve it," I warned Yasmin in a chilling tone.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Yasmin was scared of Steven, so she stepped back to keep her distance. She asked softly," Stephany, are you sure you don't want to talk to me about Stephanie Carlson?"
I patted Steven's hand. "Wait for me here. Everything will be fine."
Steven hesitated. However, after seeing how determined I was, he finally agreed.
I went up to Yasmin. "Let's go."
Steven furrowed his brows and glanced at the bodyguard standing not far away. "Follow her.
"How about you?" the bodyguard asked softly.
"Don't worry about me," Steven instructed the bodyguard to protect me.
As I prepared to walk through the exit door, I turned around to look at Steven. He sat on a chair patiently as if eagerly waiting for me to bring him home. After going through the exit door, I turned to Yasmin and said, "Speak up if you have something to say, but hurry."
"I didn't say I would tell you for free," said Yasmin in a hoarse voice. She was deeply affected by Michael's accident.
"What do you want?" I gazed at Yasmin surprisingly.
"Mike is in trouble. I need you to use your influence within the Lincoln family to ensure my safety," Yasmin said thoughtfully.
She truly amused me. "Who do you think you are, asking me to protect you with the influence of the Lincoln family? Do you consider yourself an endangered species or do you think I'm a dog lover?"
Yasmin was furious. "Stephany, there's no need for you to be defensive. Despite lacking concrete evidence of your direct connection to the killer, it's clear that you're imitating
Stephanie and using her ways to seduce Steven. But remember, the truth can never be hidden forever!"
"It's okay. You're so shameless. I have to be more assertive to break through you," I retorted. Yasmin got really agitated with me and couldn't hold herself back anymore. She lost control and shouted, "Stephanie and Steven were in a relationship, but she lost some of her memory. The person she loved was not Michael but Steven."
I frowned as my heart skipped a beat. I was uncertain if I could trust what Yasmin said. " Why are you telling me this?"
"Since you've chosen to imitate Stephanie, stop pestering and seducing Michael anymore. He belongs to me... You can't be so greedy. You can't have both Steven and Michael," Yasmin said, her jealousy seeping through her words.
She likely didn't anticipate that after getting rid of Stephanie, another woman named Stephany would become involved. Due to the intervention, Michael refused to marry her.
After all, the Bailey family was her adoptive parents' family. While they provided for her upbringing, they were not generous with material possessions and property. She had to carve out her own path and fight for everything.
She tried everything to marry Michael because she wanted to marry into a wealthy family.
"If you have something to say, speak now. If not, let's end the conversation. Psycho!" I reprimanded her and walked away.
Yasmin probably didn't expect me to be firm, so she quickly reached out to hold the exit door. "Stephany!"
