Chapter 588
In that split moment, I understood the meaning of education.
I had never agreed with the saying that humans were born kind. Some people were just inherently bad apples. However, education was the only way to change everything.
Steven actually felt like a beacon of light. He had been guiding me toward where I needed to go from the very beginning.
"You're a very, very good person, my dear Steven." He'd been a great person since the start of it all.
"Welcome home, you guys." Steven stretched his arms out and pulled Ashton and Xandra into another embrace. Stevie and I were also pulled into the hug.
I couldn't help but smile. This was nice.
We were so blissful, it was enviable.
After a month's rest, we didn't come across any news regarding what happened on the cruise.
The government had probably conducted investigations on everyone involved. It wasn't the time to publicize everything and stir up panic at the moment.
The ship belonged to a millionaire overseas. When Huma's police officers tracked the man down with the aid of the local authorities, the man had already taken his own life in his home.
Their lead seemed to have ended there.
All evidence pointed toward overseas. However, there was absolutely nothing on Genome Society or the people who were part of the lab in Huma.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Even if everyone knew that Michael's mother was one of the people in charge, they had yet to uncover the location of the lab itself.
"Michael is probably locked up by his mother. Since we returned from the ocean, the Fords have not permitted anyone to see him. They're claiming he's gone through too much stress." Rachel had come over together with Zion.
"We need Michael to help with the investigation, but his mother is refusing to cooperate. That's why we suspect that he's being kept there against his will." Zion sighed.
This was Michael Ford's mother they were up against. Without ample evidence, they weren't able to do anything.
"Are you asking us to pay him a visit?" I looked at him.
Steven immediately reached for my hand. He didn't want me to get involved with that family any longer. "We're asking you to try." Rachel took my hand. "You know Michael best, Stephy,"
They wanted me to convince Michael to go against his mother, gather evidence, and then throw her into jail?
I scoffed. "You're overestimating my abilities. You're also thinking too highly of Michael. He's actually a bit of a mama's boy,"
Based on what I know about him, his mother single-handedly turned him into the successful man he was in the present day. He was deprived of affection from his father because the man was never home.
I used to feel sympathetic toward Mrs. Ford and Michael. Now, I realized that there was a reason their circumstances were the way they were.
"As of now, we no longer have a lead, and Dayton is still under observation while he recuperates. We can only turn to Michael for any new information."
We needed to find the next laboratory and rescue the people inside. Maybe they were waiting to be rescued as well.
"I'll make a trip to their house." I nodded.
Steven's grip on my hand tightened. "She's dangerous, Stephy."
He was referring to Mrs. Ford, and he was right. She was able to make Stephanie lose her memories and subsequently turn into a completely different person. She probably had something to do with the accident and Peter Jones' hypnosis too.
This woman felt terrifying to even think about.
"If we're going to get rid of Genome Society, we should destroy each and every one of their laboratories."
With Nancy's lab and the cruise out of the picture, the organization had lost two big experiment labs. Now, we needed to locate the one Mrs. Ford was in charge of.
