Revenge After Death (Michael and Stephanie) novel Chapter 185

Chapter 185 

Zion glanced at his colleagues with a complex expression and said, “Sorry… It’s not our team’s investigation now, so… I can’t say much.” 

Deep down, I sensed that there must have been some internal reorganization among them since Zion hadn’t found the real culprit yet. 

Hence, the case remained unresolved. 

“Zion… Please reach out to Steven for me. He’ll be worried if I don’t come home. Just let 

me speak with him, I’m begging you,” I said, looking at Zion anxiously. 

Zion was about to speak when Phil interrupted. 

“Officer Landon is under investigation too, so don’t further drag him into the mess,” Phil whispered to me. 

I glanced at Zion in shock. 

Why was he being investigated too? 

“Officer Landon… got reported,” Phil muttered. 

I drew in a deep breath. 

The convergence of all these events at this particular moment was definitely not a 

coincidence. 

It appeared as if nothing was connected, but somehow, it all fit together perfectly. 

So, I was taken away for questioning. 

I knew that Steven would surely lose his composure and go off the rails. After all, he was and once he lost control of himself, Martin would take advantage of the 

situation by spreading rumors. 

all alone now, 

And in the end, people would only believe what they wanted to believe. 

What’s more, if Michael got out of jail and learned that his mother had been hit by a car, he’d surely unleash his fury out on Steven. 

“I have the right to call my lawyer. You can’t just take me away like this.” I said, still wanting to contact Steven. At least then, I could give him some assurance and keep him calm.

But the cops didn’t offer me that opportunity, “We didn’t come to nab you without evidence, so you better play along,” 

So, I decided to go along with the investigation for now. After all, I had no idea what the cops had dug up. And I was pretty clueless about Stephany’s secrets too, 

I rubbed my temples, feeling helpless and frustrated, 

What on earth had Stephany done? 

I wasn’t sure when the car arrived at the police station, but time flew by as the cops grilled me all night, asking me why I had Cyrus kill Yasmin. 

“I really don’t know what you’re talking about.” I was genuinely puzzled. 

“Cyrus spilled the beans. He claimed that you were backing them up and had told him to kill Yasmin. He said that if he did so, you promised to cover Jean’s medical bills,” the cops said in a chilling tone, trying to pressure me. 

I was startled. 

Did Cyrus really say that? 

Did Stephany really do that? 

“No way…” I shook my head. “I couldn’t have told Cyrus to go to the hospital to hurt 

Yasmin.” 

This, I was certain about. 

Since I got reincarnated, I hadn’t reached out to Cyrus at all. So, it couldn’t have been me. 

“You better spill the beans!” The cops slammed several photos on the table in front of me. “These are the photos of you helping them out, buying them food, and taking Jean to the hospital. Let’s see you try to talk your way out of this.”

“Stephany, I suggest you not to mess around. Come clean, work with our investigation, and try to get a fair deal.” 

“I didn’t tell Cyrus to kill Yasmin. It’s a misunderstanding.” 

Just then, before the cops could say more, another officer entered and whispered
