Chapter 610
I looked at Michael warily. He was here for Steven? What did that mean?
"You should head back first, Stephie. Ashton and Xan are waiting for you." Ashton and Xan were waiting for us with Stevie in the courtyard.
I nodded and headed back. Steven would tell me what Michael said anyway.
I sat on the lawn together with Ashton and Xan. I was looking at Steven and Michael while rubbing Stevie's head.
It was rare for both of them to talk calmly like that. I couldn't make out their lip movements clearly, and I couldn't hear their conversation. But Michael seemed to be nervous.
After 20 minutes, Michael hurriedly got into his car and left. Perhaps his time to be out was limited.
He glanced over to my direction before getting into the car and left. Steven walked in, looking unperturbed.
"What did he tell you?" I asked curiously.
"He said that he's getting engaged to Una." Steven walked over and sat beside me.
I felt surprised. "He's getting engaged to Una? Will his mom agree to it?"
"Perhaps he's doing it to spite his mom. He's rather rebellious." Steven started to hug and kiss me all over. "Who cares about him? That scumbag can marry anyone he likes. You're my wife anyway."
I helplessly leaned against his shoulders. "He only told you this? Why would he tell us that he's getting engaged? He's crazy!"
Steven chuckled and said softly, "He just said that his mom's a madwoman who's controlling his life. Anyone who gets near to him will be hurt by his mom. Una isn't afraid since she's egoistic."
I smiled. Funnily enough, Una was resistant to cloning and even looked exactly like Stephanie Carlson. We could just leave that family of theirs to hurt each other.
"Michael's mom will no longer keep watch on us with Una distracting her. We can live happily from now on." Steven sounded wishful as if he was daydreaming.
"Will that day ever come?" I leaned against him.
"It will soon. The reason why Genome Society was sounding out Dayton is because the real person in charge behind them wants to meet him. We'll win as long as they meet him."
As long as they knew who the person was and killed them, everything would come to an end temporarily.
"But even if we kill one person in charge of the Genome Society, the headquarters would still send out a second or a third person." I sighed.
"We'll kill them and destroy all of the genetic experiment data in Huma. They won't be able to trace back anything and would have to start over. We can rid ourselves of them that way." What Steven was trying to do was to delete all data the Huma Genome Society had of me.
"Are you sure they haven't uploaded the experiment data to the headquarters?" I looked at him.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Steven shook his head and replied, "The experiment data are not shared between them. They only have regular exchanges every year and would not display their data before the results are certain."
He had previously infiltrated Genome Society's laboratory, raising the arguments for the Reincarnation
Project.
I let out a sigh of relief. "If that's the case, we're really at the end of the tunnel now."
It was as if everything was truly coming to an end soon.
The police deployed more manpower on their investigation pursuant to the incident on the cruise. The people from Genome Society became even more withdrawn.
Steven and I experienced a few days' worth of a normal person's life-calm and harmonious.
Upon waking up daily, we would bring the children to play on the lawn and bring Stevie for a run by the beach. We would watch the sunrise and sunset.
Such a calm and wonderful life almost made me forget that I was merely an experimental subject. "I'll bring you out to buy a dress, Xan." I was experiencing the joys of a normal mother as I brought the two children out shopping in the mall. We bumped into Michael, Una, and Mrs. Ford unexpectedly.
It felt strange seeing the three of them out shopping together. The happy family scene was rather peculiar. "This is my son and daughter-in-law." Mrs. Ford was smiling as she introduced them to the salesperson of the luxury goods store.
I was both surprised and puzzled. Mrs. Ford's acting skills were amazing-she actually endured everything and accepted Una despite Mrs. Ford's abnormal possessiveness toward her son.
