Revenge After Death

Chapter 718

Eason's body was taut as he trembled, feeling the pain of losing his colleagues.

I could actually feel pain and anguish coming from him.

"I'm sorry. I'll get Jeffers to send you back. My colleagues were met with demise. I have to be there."

I stayed silent as I watched him leave.

"You chose to quietly make sacrifices because you don't want to see your loved ones cry. If giving up on our lives will ensure their peace, it would seem worth it, wouldn't it?" I muttered, standing in place even after Eason left.

"You finally understand what Steven was thinking now. He thought that by sacrificing himself, you and the others would be able to live in peace.

"That was why he had repeatedly sacrificed himself like a fool, just for you to live," Joel said. He walked out from the corner, wearing a flat hat and a crematorium worker's uniform.

He couldn't take his eyes off Eason even after he left. He was probably heartbroken to see Eason suffer.

"Carol is your sister. The Rebels are completely out of my hands with her in control now. Let's work together before she tries to kill me in her madness," I said, looking at Joel.

I continued, "You, too, have someone you desperately want to protect, right? Genome Society now has their eyes on them."

Genome Society was planning to kill people like Zion and Eason to warn the other police officers. As such, Joel and I both had people we wanted to protect.

As for that crazy woman, Carol, Joel should be able to handle her for now, right?

With the enemy still at large, our infighting would only be seen as a joke to Genome Society.

"Okay," Joel replied. Him showing up today meant that he was already prepared to work together with me. He continued, "But let me be clear-whatever dangers you face or injuries you sustain are on you, not me. I only promised Steven that I would protect you on his behalf if you were willing to live an ordinary life. But since you're insisting to get involved-"NôvelDrama.Org © content.

Joel was clearly trying to get out of his responsibilities when he said that. It was as if he was telling me to pass the message to Steven that this had nothing to do with him.

"So, you know Steven is with me?" I asked, chuckling.

"Where else would he be?' Joel said with a snort.

I knew it was impossible for Linda alone to hide Steven away-both he and Michael must have helped out.

"It's fine if you fool around with him, just not to the point of killing him." Joel gave me a warning glance before he left.

"Why would I do that," I mumbled in a resigned tone.

What kind of monster the me who had recovered all my memories was in their eyes? I didn't recall having eaten anyone alive before this.

After Joel left, I looked up at the gloomy sky.

I would be meeting Sarah next.

In order to bring down the damned mastermind, we had no choice but to move forward relentlessly.

Steven was willing to sacrifice himself for me in order to protect those he cared for. I could also do it together with him.

We would live and die together.
