Revenge After Death



"What are your plans?" Joel asked.

"I'm bringing Steven home." I looked at the empty space beside me, yet I could still feel his presence.

It was just like how I had been detached from my body back then.

However, they couldn't feel him. They thought that I had gone mad - that I had started hallucinating because I couldn't accept the reality.

"Stephie..." Michael dared not show up in front of me since that day. He had been hiding all the while, yet somehow he found the courage to walk over today.

I glanced at him, feeling surprisingly calm and unperturbed. Their trap must have been a deadlock from the start since he had agreed to help Steven out.

"Just leave." I refused to meet anyone else. I only wanted to bring Steven home.

I glanced at Joel and whispered, "Help me send Steven home."

"Stephanie," he called hesitantly.

"You've figured out the formula between reincarnation and the genetic code, haven't you?" I asked him after making sure that no one was following us.

Joel stared at me quietly for the longest time. "Did Steven not leave the data with you?"

I had a bad feeling as I frowned. "He did, but I burned it."

I would have looked at it if I knew this would happen.

"Would you believe me if I told you that my reincarnation was purely coincidental?" Joel softly asked. "I was lying to Carol when I said I found the way to reincarnate."

It was to prevent Carol from doing anything reckless just to get her hands on Steven.

I took a deep breath as I slowly stiffened up.

I had thought I could find a way to bring him back. It turned out that it was all meant to be. Steven had been deceiving me all along.

"Steven knew all along that you actually don't know the method to reincarnation, right?" I looked at Joel.

He remained silent as he clenched his fists tightly.

I had held onto a glimmer of hope since Steven had mentioned that Joel knew the way too.

I figured that we could bring him back as long as I could find Steven's clone subject. Andy would definitely have prepared a clone subject for him.

Joel said, "Steven was worried that you might go look for Andy for his clone subject. That way, we would be back to square one. Andy would never let you go since he knew that you have the reincarnation data."

Steven's sacrifice would be in vain if that happened.

I took a deep breath and said nothing.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

It was time to go back home, Steven.

We returned to the mountaintop villa.

Joel sent Steven and me back. He was still worried about me.

Zion, Rachel, and Eason were all there. I did not want to see any of them. Rachel had come with Xan and Ashton, but I didn't even want to see them.

I couldn't protect their father but came back alone. I felt so sorry for the kids.

I said, "Bring the kids back. I want to be alone."

Steven's body was stored in the cryogenic chamber.

I clung to the hope that he would come back, but I had been in a daze for a long time.

I could feel his presence, yet I couldn't connect with him at all. I knew he was right by my

side, but he couldn't reply to me when I spoke, and I couldn't hear him when he spoke.

It was as if we were trapped in two different worlds, and he only had a sliver of quantum consciousness left, unwilling to leave.

"I'm tired now, Steven," I whispered as I locked myself in the bathroom, filling the bathtub brim with water.

I knew he was looking at me. He was probably crying and screaming now.

But without him, I realized that I couldn't find any reason to keep on living.

Everything has lost its meaning now.

"I'm coming to you now, Steven." I submerged myself under the cold water, feeling myself gradually suffocating.

"Stephie!"

"Do you believe that the body has a soul, Steven? Just like quantum entanglement, a person's consciousness can exist separately from the body. We just can't touch or see it. "Those two twin white mice came back to life on the brink of death, Steven! Elizabeth's behavior has completely changed. She seems more like Eaton from before, while Eaton is more like Elizabeth!

"Help me find a pair of twins, Steven. If only I can succeed-"

"You're insane, Stephie. You want to use humans-"

"So what? There have to be sacrifices in order for humanity to move forward!"

"Please stop this, Stephie!"

I felt as if I had seen Steven as I teetered on the brink of death.

In those memories, I was the one who was frantically conducting experiments. I was also the

one who had continuously tortured animals in order to record the data.

On the other hand, Steven seemed to not trust me. He did not believe that souls could be reincarnated, nor that the quantum called "souls" could continue to entangle through a different medium.
