Chapter 234 Grandma Rosie seemed to care more about her biological granddaughter, Ann, than about Stephany.
“Grandma Rosie, Ann’s not coming to see you,” | told her straightforwardly, shattering her hopes.
Grandma Rosie sighed disappointedly. “Oh well, never mind.” Michael glanced at the tand said, “Grandma Rosie, | have to return to my ward now. Callif you need anything, okay?” Grandma Rosie nodded with a smile. “Will do. Stephy is so lucky to have met you, Mike.” Steve stood by silently, his expression cold. Oddly, he didn’t try to please Grandma Rosie as he usually usually would do with others.
Something toldthat he didn’t like Grandma Rosie.
“Stephy, how could your parents force you to marry into the Lincoln family? How many wedding gifts did they receive? “Remember, don’t give all your money to your parents. I'm the one who raised you, so you should letknow in case you've got money, okay?” Grandma Rosie said lovingly.
Although Grandma Rosie sounded as if she was genuinely concerned about Stephany, | was taken aback. | sensed something off about her.
She was completely different from how I had imagined.
I'had thought she truly cared about Stephany, but... apparenihot.
“Stephy, could you give Annie a call and ask her to cvisit me?” Grandma Rosie requested softly.
Perhaps still assuming Steven was an idiot, Grandma Rosie completely ignored him and continued, “Also, before | was hospitalized, your brother, Felix, mentioned wanting to buy at house.
“Even though he’s not your biological brother, your Uncle John did raise you well when you stayed with our family, didn’t he?” Seeingsilent, Grandma Rosie said again in a hushed tone, “Stephy, does this dimwit Grandma Rosle seemed to care more about her biological granddaughter, Ann, than about Stephany.

“Grandma Rosle, Ann’s not coming to see you,” | told her straightforwardly, shattering her hopes.

“Even though he’s not your biological brother, your Uncle John did raise you well when you stayed with our family, didn’t he?” Seeingsilent, Grandma Rosie said again in a hushed tone, “Stephy, does this dimwit have any money? Maybe he can buy Felix a house? We won't ask for too much, Just a 1,000- aquare-foot house at Huma 2nd Avenue will do. It'd be great if he could throw in a car too.
looked at Grandma Rosie dumbfoundedly.
A 1,000-square-foot house at Huma 2nd Avenue? The most basic house in that area would cost at least 41 grand per square foot! And she thought Steven was the one out of his mind? Had she looked at herself in the mirror? Why would Steven buy a house for someone completely unrelated? “Grandma Rosie, Steven's broke. He's got no status or standing in the Lincoln family due to his incompetence.
We're treated poorly in that family,” | said, feigning grievance.
However, Grandma Rosie didn’t seem to give a damn about the bullying | endured.
Instead, she remarked, “So, he’s not as capable as Mike, is he? Mike is the president of a big company, so he definitely can afford a house. He seems quite interested in you. Why don’t you talk to him about this?” “Grandma Rosie, Steven needs his rest, so I'd better take him back to his ward now. You should get srest too. I'll visit you another day.” Ignoring Grandma Rosie's request, | left the ward with Steven.
“Stephany, have you grown arrogant now that you’re back with your biological parents?” Grandma Rosie snapped furiously.
What was this old lady’s problem? | had always believed that Stephany was being manipulated by Charles because she felt Indebted to Grandma Rosie. But after seeing Grandma Rosie’s true nature, Stephany should have just let her be.
“Do you know how Stephany’s foster parents died?” Steven asked in a low tone as we walked down the hallway.
At that moment, he seemed perfectly normal, nothing like a fool.
“Huh?” | genuinely had no idea how Stephany’s foster parents died.
“They died in an accident while resisting arrest,” Steven said in a low tone. “They were human traffickers.” That was the reason Steven had initially despised Stephany. Her foster family were human traffickers, including Grandma Rosie.

Grandma Rosie used to take Stephany to mingle with the mn homeless children pretending to be friendly and kind. But in fact, she was waiting for buyers to make their move. | looked at Steven in shock, unaware that he had done a background check on that family a long tago.
As | had suspected, Stephany carried a multitude of secrets with her.
“Stephany! Are you okay?” As we stepped into the elevator, a nurse greetedand asked if everything was alright. It seemed that she knew Stephany quite well.
“Huh?” Feeling a little confused, | glanced at her nametag and replied, “Um.... I'm fine... Judy.
“You really gavea fright! | was worried that you'd do something silly when you came to me the other day asking for so much quinine!” Judy sighed in relief.
“You told me it was for your grandmother, but when | checked with the doctor later they said your grandmother had already collected her medication. | was scared to death! “I tried to reach you, but you didn’t answer my calls. | was worried that you might do something silly again...” Quinine? | was stunned upon hearing that term.
“Do you remember what day it was?” | quickly asked.
Judy was taken aback. “Last month, on the 17th.” | instinctively glanced at Steven.
That was the day Stephany died, the day | was reborn, Stephany’s death wasn’t an accident? She died because she had/intentionally taken a large amount of quinine, which caused a fatal toxic reaction in her heart? Stephany had died by suicide.
