Revenge After Death

Chapter 727



Chapter 727

Steven was never one to be overly sentimental, but he cried for the longest time that night, clearly feeling aggrieved. I could only hold him close while comforting him.

Perhaps it was due to losing a leg that he had become extremely sensitive -he couldn't even sleep soundly.

Linda had mentioned that Steven could only manage to sleep with the help of some medications while he was still in the asylum's underground sterile ward

However, those medications had severe side effects and were damaging to the body.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

As such, I forbade him from taking those sleeping pills after bringing him back, and he had never complained about it.

He could only sleep soundly with me by his side. He would wake up alert even if I shifted slightly.

I leaned against the headboard as I watched Steven, who had fallen asleep after exhausting himself from crying. I dared not move in case I woke him up.

The lights were dim outside the window, and it was eerily quiet in the mountain.

Steven was sound asleep, yet I was the one unable to fall asleep now.

We were all feeling confused and scared of the road ahead.

Technology and medical advancement continued to progress, but as we moved forward, we needed to ponder where humanity was heading.

The morning rays filtered into the room through the curtains.

I rubbed my eyes, which were swollen from insomnia, and looked at Steven's face. I marveled at his long eyelashes.

I burrowed myself into his embrace and drifted into sleep peacefully.

Steven was no longer in the room by the time I woke up. I realized that he could get the kids to unlock the doors from the outside.

Ijolted up and hurried down the bed, feeling anxious.

Steven came in just then. He looked somewhat diffident when we locked eyes. Leaning anxiously against his crutches, he softly said, "I just... went down for a walk. I didn't go anywhere else."

When I remained silent, he continued, "I told you last night, Ashton can open the doors. I knew you didn't sleep well last night, so I didn't bother waking you up."

Steven was worried that I might be upset. He got even more anxious when I stayed quiet. "I won't go out anymore if it makes you upset."

Relieved, I walked over and bit on his arm as an act of revenge. He endured the pain and allowed me to bite

him.

My eyes were red when I whispered, "I was scared that you left me."

"I won't. I won't leave you anymore." Steven shook his head and dropped his crutches to hug me.

I grabbed his clothes tight and said, "Don't ever leave me again, Steven.'

He hummed a reply and patted my hand comfortingly. He then took out a rose from his pocket and said, "The flowers are blooming beautifully outside."

I took the flower and said softly. "Let's head down together."

Steven seemed happy. 'Really?'

Inodded. I couldn't keep him locked forever.

I looked at him and said, 'But I'll put you on a leash if you wander away without my permission again."

Steven was amused. 'Only Stevie would need to be put on a leash."

"Stevie is obedient and doesn't wander away. It also doesn't have such a high IQ," I said with gritted teeth. Steve tried playing cute as he said, "I'm sorry, wifey'

I gestured for him to sit in his wheelchair so that I could push him downstairs.

Peaceful days never lasted long. Steven and I were soaking up the sun in the courtyard. Ashton was blowing bubbles, and Xan remained sitting under the shade as she fiddled with her Rubik's cube.

But our peaceful life was interrupted.

Now that Sarah had found out that Steven and I were still alive, Genome Society would never let valuable assets like us go easily.
