Revenge After Death

Chapter 465

Steven gently grasped my face and whispered, "Stephie, that was my old plan for when you forgot about me and didn't love me. Now that you're back with me, my plan has changed. You see, I've sold all the shares in the Lincoln Group.

"Initially, I aimed to take over the Lincoln family and utilize the Lincoln Group to join as one of the investors behind the scenes. Then, I'd carry out my plan."

As tears streamed down my face, Steven's panicked voice cut through the air. "Stephie, you've completely thrown off all my plans. Ever since you were reincarnated and woke up in my bed, you've disrupted everything. Seriously..."

He grasped my face in a panic, his anxiety palpable. "How could I bear to leave you alone, Stephie? Don't be afraid. I'll never leave you behind."

I looked at him and asked doubtfully, "Really?"

Steven raised his finger and swore, but there was a sorrow in his eyes that I couldn't comprehend. "I swear, I'll never leave Stephanie, never..."

"But what if I'm not Stephanie?" I asked fearfully.

What if I really was just a memory implant, just a clone, as Yasmin suggested?

He gently touched my face. "You are Stephie, you are. Never let anyone sway you. Faith comes from within yourself."

"What was your initial plan?" I asked Steven with teary eyes.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

He explained softly, "Stephie... The organization has a person in charge for each country and region in the organization. And you're the pinnacle of creativity and the most valuable experimental subject for this person in charge.

"I initially intended to use the Lincoln Group to become one of their investors to find out the mastermind behind this organization and replace the person in charge.

"By assuming control over the leadership, I would dismantle the entire Godmaker Project, annihilate all its experimental data, and ensure the complete disappearance of Stephanie, Stephany, and other subjects.

"This would grant you the absolute freedom you deserve. You'll be liberated once and for all."

He was willing to risk his life to infiltrate and become the sinister force behind it all, all for the sake of saving his beloved. Those who persisted in battling evil for too long eventually became evil themselves.

He was fully prepared to embrace evil in order to eradicate it entirely. Yet, accomplishing this goal proved to be an immense challenge.

To become evil, he needed to be compelled to commit numerous evil acts and be stained with blood. However, Steven was born pure and righteous. How could he allow himself to become a sinner?

In the end, he would perish along with all his sins. As the sins burned away, he would also disappear completely. This was his original, complete plan.

That was precisely why he repeatedly stated that it made no difference whether I remembered him or not... I could do as I pleased.

From start to finish, Steven never allowed himself a way out. He laid many paths for me, and each one led to a dead end for him.
