Chapter 1579 Erin is dead
They helped Ste take a bath and wanted to take her to a hotel to rest. However, Ste insisted on
waiting for Henry’s surgery to finish because she was worried about him. When she heard from the
doctor that Henry’s surgery was sessful, she finally felt relieved.
Henry was still unconscious from the anesthesia. Once Ste knew he was okay, with Eva’s
persuasion, she got up. But before she could leave the room, a bodyguard sent by James suddenly
came in with a phone call.
“Mr. Evans, Erin is dead.”
James froze for a moment. Without waiting for the bodyguard to finish, he immediately hung up the
phone and turned to look at Ste, who was slowing down her steps.
After hesitating for two seconds, he spoke, “Ste, Erin is dead…”
Ste’s body suddenly stiffened. Whether it was fear or something else, she felt her hands tremble in
an instant, followed by her legs weakening and her inability to stand steadily.
If it weren’t for Amelia and Eva supporting her on both sides, she would have copsed on the ground
by now.

Her face gradually turned pale, and her once sturdy back that refused to turn also visibly slumped
down…
She froze in ce, not knowing how long, until James’ cold voice came again from her car, and she
slowly turned her head…
“What?”
She didn’t hear anything clearly just now, as if the whole world had be silent, leaving only the
ringing in her cars and the explosive wailing in her mind, preventing her from hearing what Mr. Evans
said…
James held his phone tightly and took heavy steps towards Ste.
“The police temporarily won’t let anyone touch his body. If you want to see him, you can see him for the
last time before they arrive.”
Erin died from a gunshot, which was a criminal case and required the crime scene to be sealed. In
addition, the American police were also investigating Erin’s whereabouts, so the body couldn’t be easily
taken away.
Ste, still in a daze, heard the words “body” and finally realized that Erin was really dead. But he was
so skilled in medicine, how could this happen…
When he was young, he had once survived a gunshot wound in the wilderness, performing the surgery
himself. Back then, he managed to pull through, so why now…
Ste lowered her gaze to her hands, which were already clean
with no traces of blood. But for some reason, she still felt like her hands were covered in blood…
After staring at them for a long time, she suddenly let go of Amelia and Eva’s hands, rushed out of the
ward, and ran into the restroom. She desperately tried to wash off the “blood” from her hands, but no
matter how hard she tried, it wouldn’te off.
Feeling powerless, she leaned her hands against the edge of the sink; looked up at herself in the
mirror-pale face, lips devoid of color, dark circles under her eyes…
She told herself that she had be this way because of Erin. If he died, she could peacefully live the
rest of her life without anyone bothering her…
Thinking of this, Ste’s eyes unexpectedly turned red.
She raised her hand and pped herself hard, feeling foolish. Why was she feeling upset and why
should she be upset?
He’s dead, so what? Why should she feel upset?!
However, her tears continued to flow uncontrobly.
Erin was the person she had loved with all her might when she was young. She actually shot and killed
him…
Ste pped herself hard again. She shouldn’t be crying for a man who had bullied her since
childhood and even took away her uterus. He deserved it!
She felt like she was being torn apart internally. After struggling repeatedly in her mind, she turned on
the faucet, desperately sshing water on her face. After sshing herself awake, she grabbed a
tissue and expressionlessly wiped the water off her face.
