Chapter 578 - 578: Valerie Killed Devin
But he had no sense of guilt at all. He wanted to grind her into powder!
What else was she afraid of? Anyway, her future had completely been ruined by him. She might as well be dead!
If she let him go today, she would never get another chance!
Valerie did not hesitate any longer. She held the knife and stabbed it into Devin\'s stomach with all her strength!
The knife was stuck into his guts, and there was a gush of blood as the knife was pulled out from his stomach.
Devin\'s face faded. He covered his stomach as he stared at Valerie in front of him in disbelief. His expression was frozen, and slowly he sagged to the ground.
The two hostesses woke up and screamed,
"Ahhhhh! Murder!"

The next morning, Savannah got up early.
She had been distracted since she knew from the news that Valerie had escaped from prison.
She tossed and turned last night and fell asleep very late.
Dylan was also very nervous when he heard about Valerie\'s escape. He called immediately and asked her not to leave the house until Valerie was caught by the police. He also sent several bodyguards patrolling around Green Bay to protect her.
Savannah knew that he was afraid Valerie would take revenge on her after escaping from prison. After all, there was a lot of bad blood between them.
However, she had no fear of Valerie\'s coming to trouble her. She felt that Valerie would do something else.
After washing and changing, she went downstairs for breakfast.
She had just sat down when Garwood arrived with Kaiden, looking rather grave.
"Miss Schultz, Mr. Sterling, asked me to bring the young master to you. He will be very busy these days and can\'t go back to Beverly Hills, so please take care of the young master."
"What\'s the matter? Is there something wrong?" Savannah stood up uneasily.
Garwood asked Garcia to take Kaiden upstairs, and then he whispered, "Master Yontz was stabbed by Valerie, who escaped from prison in the bar last night. He was taken to the hospital and died despite emergency treatment."
Savannah\'s face turned white as paper.
Valerie escaped after killing Devin.
Garwood\'s voice continued, " Valerie was caught red-handed and taken to the police station. At the news of Master Yontz\'s death, old Sterling fainted due to an attack of high blood pressure this morning and is still in the hospital. Mr. Sterling has to deal with the death of Master Yontz and the questions from the media. He\'s going to be very busy."
"Well, I see." Savannah drew back her thoughts and nodded.
"In addition, I\'m afraid your wedding will be delayed because of this sudden accident. But it shouldn\'t be long." Garwood added hesitantly.
"I understand. All right."Savannah, though a little upset, was not surprised.
After Garwood left, Savannah went upstairs. With a forced smile, she accompanied Kaiden for a while before she went back to her bedroom, intensely disquieted.
It seemed that the words she had spoken to Valerie on that day had given Valerie the decision to take revenge.
It could be said that the knife that killed Devin was also stained with her blood.
A sudden chill of horror swept over her as she blamed Devin\'s death on herself.
She just wanted Valerie to sue Devin so that Devin was involved in the lawsuit and had no time to make trouble for Dylan. She didn\'t mean to kill Devin. She never expected such a result.
Yes, after Devin\'s death, she didn\'t have to worry about him going around, saying that Dylan had a mental illness. But…it was one life!
She felt like she was the murderer.
Even though Devin deserved to die, she shouldn\'t be the one who killed him.
Feeling sleepy, Savannah leaned back on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
She didn\'t know how long she was asleep. When she opened her eyes, she saw a figure standing beside the bed.
She rubbed her eyes and saw Devin!
Devin was covered with blood, and there was a bloody hole in his stomach. His white face was covered with a sad, sharp smile.
"Savannah, you are so cruel! For Dylan, you used your cousin to kill me…"
Savannah broke out in a cold sweat and tried to get up to escape, but she couldn\'t move!
"Since you dare to order Valerie to kill me, what are you running for? At least we were once an unmarried couple. Come on, come with me... We\'ll be a couple again underground..." Devin moved closer and closer. The grim smile on his pale face looked awful in the dark bedroom.
Then he raised his bloody hand and held it out.
"Don\'t come --" Savannah exclaimed, sitting up!
"Mommy!"A worried little boy\'s voice sounded.
Savannah opened her eyes and saw Kaiden running in from his room and was shaking her with his small hands. She took a deep breath, collected herself, and picked up Kaiden.
"I\'m fine. I had a nightmare."
"Don\'t be afraid, Mommy. I\'ll protect you." Kaiden put his arms around Savannah\'s neck to cheer her up.
Holding Kaiden, Savannah could still feel her heart beating violently.
When it was completely dark, Garcia took Kaiden back to his own bed.
Savannah dreaded going to bed, afraid to have nightmares again.
She called Dylan and wanted his company, but nobody answered after a long waiting.
Well, he should be in charge of the affairs of his nephew, dealing with the media. Worse, old Sterling was ill, Susan was still in the intensive care unit, and the company\'s business was waiting for him... He must be badly battered now.
Savannah did not call him again. She didn\'t want to hold him back.
That night, she had several nightmares, and she tossed and turned all night, dreaming about Devin, who was covered in blood, coming to her to pull her to hell together.

When she woke up the next morning, her bones ached, and she felt light-headed. Her face looked flushed as if she had a fever.
She took an antipyretic and decided to go to K&G today. The Young series had just come into the market, and she had to follow its progress.
So after sending Kaiden to the kindergarten, she went to the company.
Tina reported to her about K&G\'s recent situation. Then she turned on her PC to make some changes to the new design works.
