"It's been 13 days and 8 hours, hmph!" Steven retorted at Michael. Michale gritted his teeth, tempted to strangle Steven to death.
I nodded, stunned for a moment. I then asked, "I've been unconscious for so long? What did the doctor say?" "The doctor said you probably passed out because of excessive shock or concussion," Rachel replied, squeezing my hand tighter. Her voice was trembling with fear. "You frightenedto death, Stephie." Feeling somewhat dazed and numb, I sensed a loss of control over my body. Something toldthat neither excessive shock nor concussion was the cause of my prolonged unconsciousness... Noticing Steven's cautious and fearful gaze at me, I wondered what had frightened him.
Obviously, he wasn't worried that I would remain unconscious. It felt more like he was afraid that I wouldn't recognize him when I regained consciousness...
Was he concerned that I might lose my memory again? Silly Steven. How insecure was this guy? Worrying that I might fall in love with Michael again...

I had heard that showing your vulnerable side to your significant other could increase the couple's happiness.
"I'll massage it for you," Steven said, pullinginto his embrace and massaging my temples in front of Michael. "Show off..." Rachel hummed in a tone tinged with jealousy. "Stephie, am I not your favorite anymore? You said you wanted to live with me, didn't you?" I glanced at Rachel, my expression complex. After a moment, I smiled and teased her, "Don't you have your eyes on Zion for that?" Rachel chuckled. "He's occupied at the moment..." Despite feeling a lack of control over my body, I attempted a smile. I hoped it didn't coff as forced.
I could feel that my body was seized by an uncomfortable numbness.
"What happened... after I passed out?" I asked.
"I led the police to search for you guys, but-" Michael explained, moving closer to express his concern. Steven snorted, cutting him off, "The police went to the ruined building and found the bodies of those people, but... no sign of Carol's and Benjamin's bodies." I was startled, looking up at Steven as he continued, "All the bodies were there except Carol's and Benjamin's... Oh, and the principal of the special needs school is still alive, but he's gone crazy. The police are stil interrogating him, but they can't get anything out of him." I frowned in silence, wondering why Carol's and Benjamin's bodies were not found.
"Where's Joel?" I looked around.
I knew Eason and Zion were absent because of the case, but why wasn't Joel here either? "The college entrance exam is near, so he went to school," Steven explained.
I wanted to comment on that but decided to change the subject instead. "How's Taylor?" "Still there. He was seriously injured, so he'll be transferred back only when he's allowed to be moved from the intensive care unit to the regular ward," Michel quickly replied before Steven could interject.
Steven rolled his eyes.

"After this hunting game, the mastermind of the serial killer case will stop his killings, right?" Rachel asked fearfully.
"Do you remember Project Zero?
The only survivors left on that list are Yasmin and Taylor. Taylor has survived, and his crdoesn't m e warrant a death sentence either, which means... Yasmin is the only one left. But she still holds svalue." I looked at Michael.
Michael lowered his head nervously and said softly, "Stephie... Yasmin works for Peter Peter is too cunning and cautious... Yasmin is the only person we can extract more secrets and clues from if we gain her trust."
I sneered. "That depends on whether Peter decides to let her live e or not." Sa**h the FindNov.'t website on Google to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. The killing ghad attracted a lot of attention, and Peter was now at huge risk himself...
I figured it was about tfor him to eliminate sliabilities.
