Revenge After Death



After knowing that Jimmy was now the manager of the laboratory in the desolate area, Steven started pestering me to go home.

He had been acting strange lately. I couldn't put a finger to it, yet I could feel it-he seemed to be clingier and even more anxious about me now.

Not only was he clingy, but he refused to let me leave his sight all the time, regardless of our location.

Logically speaking, I should be a valuable experimental subject to Genome Society. If they wanted to keep me alive and make money off me, they wouldn't be forcibly bringing me back to the laboratory when the police were watching me closely.

But somehow, Steven seemed to be even more anxious than before. He was even saying strange things all the time.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

"I bought a mountain-view villa at Celadon Hill, Stephie. It's beautifully surrounded by mountains and lakes He showed me a photo of his newly bought villa on our way back.

To Steven, a residence was just a safe space-it was sufficient as long as it was secure and private. But he made sure to choose properly this time.

The villa was located on the back mountain of Huma. Although secluded, it had a great environment and was completely safe. Since the villa was perched on the mountain peak, there was a clear view of the road winding up the mountain.

"Are you planning to take me and the kids up to the mountain to live like hermits?' I looked at Steven, amused. "Ashton and Xan need to socialize."

They needed to interact with society and start mingling with other kids their age.

I was well aware of the reason behind placing Stephanie Carlson in a college and society back then. It was a form of socialization for an experimental subject like her. But it was just something that had to be done. Humans could not survive apart from society-society was there wherever humans were. Humans needed to learn to fit in, even if it meant putting up a front.

I no longer cared if Ashton and Xan were good at putting up a front. They were just kids, and I hoped they could develop the skills needed to survive skills where they had to navigate through all sorts of people in life Human society was far more cruel than the laboratory. This was an actual testing ground, where the Earth was like a huge testing zone, and all humans were experimental subjects.

"It's fine even if it's only for a year, six months-or even just for three months. Steven tightened his grip on my hands. "I get so annoyed at how they're constantly interrupting us. I just want to live a life with just the two of us. It's even better if we could just abandon them just like that.'

Resigned, I rested my head against his shoulders. 'You want to abandon them just like that? You have to be responsible once you take them in. You're the daddy to our children now."

Steven stiffened slightly and let out a grunt. However, he seemed to appreciate what I just called him. "Alright.

He even smiled amusedly after that.

I leaned against him and reached out to touch his face. I found him handsome now that I was looking at him while completely relaxed. It was just like a dream.

Everything felt like a dream from the moment he entered my life.

"I've always wondered about something. According to my recovered memories at this point, Stephanie Carlson felt deeply for you in the past. But why did she forget about you completely all of a sudden? It's as if it was completely erased from her mind like computer data," I mumbled.

This had bothered me for some time. Why was Steven the only one who was completely erased from my

memory?

Stephanie Carlson did not even activate her defense mechanism to erase Michael's existence from her memory, and he was someone who had caused so much pain and fear for Stephanie Carlson.

Even if it was because of the car accident, it shouldn't have caused me to forget Steven alone. This just didn't make sense.

He stiffened as he looked down at me. "The human brain is just like a sophisticated computer. Memories can be altered or erased."

Frowning, I asked, 'Is Genome Society advanced enough to erase one's memories?" "They should be able to do that." Steven cast his gaze downward, holding my hands tight.
