Gwen's surgery was at 10 in the morning. Thus, Luna brought Bonnie along to her ward early in the morning.Blame it on her illness or heartbreak. Whichever it was, Gwen did not rest well for the entire night and looked worn out.The moment Luna entered and saw her in that state, she anxiously rushed over and held her hand. "Gwen, a—are you alright?"She knew that Gwen was having a huge surgery, and an organ transplant surgery at that.The night before, Luke had already left Merchant City. The person who was donating organs to Gwen had already arrived. Joshua and Jim were overseeing the other side of the surgery, while Luna and Bonnie were keeping watch on Gwen and her surgery."I'm alright." Gwen smiled feebly at Luna. "The doctor said that after the surgery today, I'll slowly get better. I won't feel so terrible in the future."Then, she turned to look at Bonnie. "Are you alright?""I'm doing quite well." Bonnie, in the wheelchair, smiled a little at Gwen. "Have a good surgery.
At ten in the morning, in Merchant City's Central Hospital, two surgeries were conducted at the same time.One was an organ transplant surgery for Gwen. The other was the removal of organs from Luke.Joshua and Jim stayed outside Luke's surgery room with a heavy expression on their faces.The most helpless thing in the world was to helplessly sit and watch one's friend dying. They could not stop Luke from trying to save Gwen, and neither could they wipe away his deep feelings for Gwen.The only thing they could do was wait for his lifeless body to be wheeled out and give him a proper burial."If only Luke had a twin brother," muttered Jim while leaning against the chair.If Luke had a twin brother, would his twin brother's organ be a successful match with Gwen's, too?Could it be…Joshua turned and swept him a cold gaze. "What does it matter if he has a twin brother? Are you planning to get Luke to convince his twin brother to die for the woman that he loves, just so that he co
"Lulu, is there…any news?"Before undergoing her surgery, Gwen passed her phone to Luna, asking her to keep an eye on it. She was worried that she would not be able to answer Luke's call, fearing that he would be worried about her.Looking at Gwen's hopeful gaze, Luna could not help but look away, not daring to look her in the eye. "No. Luke…is probably busy."He did not call nor send a message.Little did Luna know…Luke was already buried, alone in a grave. She thought that Luke had simply gone to Sea City to deal with his business and wanted to give Gwen a chance to leave, so he did not contact her.She did not want to disappoint Gwen, so she could not help but add, "He should contact you after he finishes his business.""Hopefully." Gwen shut her eyes in despair, letting the wheel push her back to her ward as she felt her heart turning cold.Somehow, she could feel that Luke might never return. He might never look for her again.To him, maybe she was not important. Perhaps s
Sean's words made Luna and Bonnie furrow their brow tightly.Sean had asked her if Luke was already dead instead of questioning why Luna would say Luke was 'probably dead'.From his question, it meant that he seemed to know a thing or two about Luke's odd disappearance, which was why he asked them.Luna narrowed her eyes at Sean suspiciously."Yes, Luke is dead. Didn't you realize that Luke hasn't returned to Merchant City for more than a month?"Sean had been recuperating in Merchant City all the while. He had no channels to learn about news in Sea City.Luna only said that to lie to him. She wanted to know why his response was that straightforward as though he knew a different reality.However, she did not expect that Sean would sigh and lament regretfully, "I kept thinking that the transplant agreement was fake because I never thought that someone would choose to die just when their life took off. I never would've thought…"Then, he looked at Luna seriously. "Do you know whe
"I don't have anything going on for me, and my education level isn't high either. I can't be like my brother Jim or Joshua, a genius in business, but I have the strength to fight. Still…"Sean sighed. "Too bad Luke is gone. He's still so young…"Then, he looked up at Luna seriously. "Has Gwen recovered? She's not too depressed and self-blaming herself after Luke's heart transplant, right?"Sean innocently thought that when Luna said that Luke was dead and Bonnie mentioned that Luke transferred his heart to Gwen, they would have already known about the contents of the agreement.Even though Luke made him swear to secrecy, Sean felt that since Luke had already died and that Luna and Bonnie already knew about it, he had no reason to keep it a secret.However, he did not know that Luna and Bonnie were tricking him."Gwen is…doing well."Luna clutched her chest. She suppressed the raging emotions in her heart."Did… Did Luke really show you the agreement before his death?"Sean nod
Seeing Luna about to leave, Bonnie furrowed her brow and grabbed Luna's arm. "I'll come with you."I'll get Jim to go to Joshua's house. We'll have a proper talk."Luna paused for a while before finally nodding. "Okay."Seeing the women about to leave when they had just arrived, Sean was a little lost. "I—Is something going on?"He was silent for a while, pondering his conversation with Luna and Bonnie."You two… Don't tell me that you didn't know anything about Luke?"Otherwise, why were they so anxious to look for Joshua and Jim after hearing him talk about Luke?The more he thought, the more he felt that this was the reason.He panicked a little."You two said you want to come to visit me, but it's just to trick me into telling you all this?"Bonnie stopped in her tracks and turned back to look at Sean. "No, Sean. We're here to see you, it's true. After all, you've been recuperating here for more than a month. We thank you for telling us the truth. We…only want to go back
Kate brought the Miller family's medical team and left Merchant City, returning to where they came from.Moreover, she left in a hurry, not even bothering to explain what was happening to him properly.As Luna's thoughts wandered, Sean stepped out, having changed out from his hospital gown into comfortable casual wear.Seeing Luna looking at him in a daze, he smiled a little tensely. "Is something wrong?""Nothing." Luna paused for a while before coming to her senses. She took Bonnie and Sean along, asking while leaving, "By the way, Sean, did you contact Kate this whole time?"Regardless, Kate was once someone he had interacted with before in Merchant City.Alas, this was the same woman who had hurt Bonnie before, almost causing Bonnie to never wake up. Moreover, she had spread the rumor about Joshua and Yannie's nonexistent affair to Thomas Howard, and the rumor took off instantaneously.Luna remembered all the scores she needed to settle. She had asked Joshua more than once t
Luna was taken aback by Sean's words. "You saw Yannie on television?"How could that be possible?Yannie was her assistant, but after a while, she resigned.After all, it was tough for her because she was not familiar with jewelry design. Nonetheless, she found a job more suitable for her with good pay, too.Luna had seen how Yannie struggled to work with Samson and the others in the studio before. Working among a group of young talents was indeed tough for Yannie.Every day after work, she was the last to leave. Typical Yannie; ever the hardworking and serious one.However, there were a lot of things that could not be achieved just by hard work.Thus, when Yannie resigned, Luna did not stop her. She even sincerely wished that she would be better in the future.Later, Luna asked Mrs. Flores about how Yannie was doing a few times, having been fond of her. Mrs. Flores always said that Yannie was doing well.After a few times, Luna stopped asking. She was afraid that Mrs. Flores
