Chapter 186 1/2 “There's definitely someone backing Carol up.” Zion nodded. “But you're not totally in the clear yet either, so better not wander around too much for now.” | stayed silent, watching as Ewan parked the car by the roadside.

“Mrs. Lincoln, let's go home.” Ewab opened the car door for me.

| got into the car and looked at Zion with mixed feelings.

In response, Zion simply waved at me.

“Mr. Bart... Lately, I've been feeling like someone’s been keeping tabs onbehind my back, even during the police investigation. There's got to be someone pulling the strings, don’t you think?” | inquired.

“I'm not really sure, Mrs. Lincoln.” Ewan chose to not be truthful.

He refused to admit anything, and | felt powerless.

There was surely someone watching out forbehind my back. Otherwise, how else could | have managed to get released so quickly despite being under investigation? | couldn’t believe it was just luck.

“Did anything happen when Steve realized that | wouldn’t chlast night?” | expressed my concern.

“Mr. Lincoln... has been waiting for you,” Ewan replied as he drove the car.

As we entered the neighborhood, | spotted Steven from a distance. He stood by the door, appearing lonely.

“He... waited forall night?” | asked softly.

Ewan nodded. “We couldn't convince him otherwise.” | stepped out of the car.

| saw that Steven's eyes were red, so he probably hadn't slept all night. In fact, he'd probably just stood here waiting for me.

“Stephie...” He rushed forward and envelopedin his arms as soon as | stepped out of the car.

Chapter 186 Although his voice remained hoarse and choked, his grasp was firm and powerful as he held onto me.

He heldclose, as if he feared that | wouldn't return. Then, he tightly cradled my head.

“I'm okay...” | raised my hand and gave Steven a comforting pat on his back, “No one... can snatch you away fromagain,” he said in a low voice, sending shivers down my spine.

“Steve... Cyrus claimed that Carol told him to kill Yasmin, but isn’t Carol mentally disabled?” | whispered, feeling increasingly uneasy, “Yeah, she has intellectual disabilities.” Steven nodded, “If Simeon was really behind all this, would he drag Carol into it too?” | asked.

| couldn’t figure it out anymore.

The two individuals with the most compelling motives were Steven and Simeon. But Simeon was supposedly deceased. And even if it was a staged death, he wouldn't have done anything that would implicate Carol.

Could it really have been as Zion suggested? Was Steven potentially the mastermind behind it all? Steven looked atwith a serious expression before finally speaking, “Stephie, are you hungry? Let's head hfor sfood.” He took my hand and guidedback.

As | stared at Steven's back, my mind was in disarray.

“Steven Lincoln!” Suddenly, a car screeched to a halt behind us.

Then, Dax stepped out and angrily glared at Steven. “You got my dad arrested by the cops, didn’t you?” he asked.

Steven was bewildered and taking cover behind me. “Stephie... | have no idea what he’s talking about.” “From what | know, Mr. Lincoln Senior is suspected of multiple illegal activities, and the evidence is solid.

“And given Mr. Lincoln Senior's age, | suggest you go hand figure out a solution instead of pointing fingers here,” Ewan said sternly.

Chapter 186 3/3 Dax angrily glared at Ewan and Steven. “It was you!” “Stephie... He's being really aggressive,” Steven said from behind me, his gaze still fixed on Dax.

“Why do you think that it was Steven, Mr. Dax?” | furrowed my brows and asked.

“Hmph, you stepped into the police station, and my dad's already in trouble. Isn't it obvious?” Dax pointed angrily at Steven. “I can see through him now. He's a wolf in sheep's clothing!” “I ended up at the police station because of you?” | cautiously looked at Dax.

However, Dax snorted and remained silent.

Clearly, he was related to these series of events too.

Meanwhile, Steven stood tall as he protectively wrappedin his arms.

He gave Dax a cold stare. “Touch my people, and you're finished.”
