"Yes, Sir," replied Steven Hughes' assistant on the other end of the line, nodding. "Dr. Liddell is very interested in your case after she studied your case. She's flying over here this morning from Merchant City. Based on the duration of the flight, she should arrive half an hour later."After that, the assistant reminded Steven again, "Sir, are you sure you won't be telling Ms. Miller about this? Her family and she had been responsible for your health when you were unconscious. They even bought several medical institutions because of you… I think it's not that nice if you don't tell them that you're looking for a doctor."Steven furrowed his brow and scoffed, "Are you Kate's assistant, or mine?"The assistant paused and did not answer the question."Don't you dare tell Kate or her family about this. I'll make sure you regret it if you do!" Steven hung up the phone and walked to the main hall of the airport.Lately, Steven felt like he was unhinged, having suffered severe headach
However, Steven stopped after taking a few steps.They did not know each other and were strangers to each other. Even when he thought he had crossed paths several times with her, there was a high possibility she did not notice him at all. He thought from her perspective and realized it was quite absurd for him to walk up to her and bid her goodbye.Suddenly, his phone rang. It was a call from Kate.He furrowed his brow as he stared at the caller's name on his screen before he made his way to the washroom at the side. The main hall of the airport was too noisy, and he was afraid Kate would suspect something.After Steven walked away, Gwen finally noticed him.'That person looks like Luke. His height, body, and even the way he walked,' she thought.Back in the past, she would have ran right up when she saw someone looking similar to Luke, but at this moment…she finally accepted the fact that he was no longer in this world. She also made it clear that no matter how similar Luke and
"I didn't know about this before. I've been looking for Rachel, and because Caleb couldn't stand me, he told me Rachel is on her way to Saigen City because she found an interesting case. He even showed me the patient detail Rachel received in her email. I opened it and took a look."That's…when I saw Luke's photo," explained Theo.He paused for a while before asking, "So, are you and Gwen still in Saigen City?"Luna bit her lip. She felt like something had hit her heart while her brain was in a mess. She turned and stared at Gwen, who was a safe distance from her.Gwen was still sitting on the luggage with a dumbfounded look, her gaze wandering aimlessly around the airport.It broke Luna's heart to see how dull Gwen looked. She bit her lip and said with a small voice, "Theo, are you sure? You know you shouldn't joke about this."Luna knew Steven Hughes was Kate's fiance. The doctors from the Miller family's medical organization were the ones who did Luke's surgery. If Steven and
As Luna thought of those possibilities, her heart thumped vehemently in her chest.Could Steven be Luke? This was the only explanation for why he was suffering from symptoms similar to a patient with amnesia. Luna's mother, Rosalyn, was in a vegetative state for a year too, but she did not experience the symptoms Steven described.Luna's hands trembled."Why was Theo looking for you?" Just then, she heard Gwen's voice.Luna paused and quickly put away her phone. She looked at Gwen with a smile. "Nothing; he's just asking if I'm still in Saigen City. He said Rachel will arrive half an hour later, and he'll arrive around the evening. He was asking if we're free to have dinner with him."Gwen chuckled at this, feeling sentimental at the thought. "Why did you think Theo tried to mess up his relationship with Rachel in the past? Look at him now. Rachel is now Caleb's fiance, and now she's not bringing him anywhere she does."She curled up her lips and looked at her watch. "It's almost
Gwen thought she was hallucinating again, but as she snapped out of her daze when the janitor called out to her again…She realized she was not dreaming.She bit her lip as she felt her figure shivering. She strode toward the direction Steven was in like she was running."Gwen!"Luna felt something was amiss when she noticed that Gwen had not returned after a while. She furrowed her brow as she called out Gwen's name. When she looked back, she saw Gwen running toward a man.She was shocked to see this and wondered what had gotten into Gwen again.Thus, she quickly chased after Gwen. As she got closer, however, she finally saw the man's face better, and her heart nearly leaped to her throat.'That's…Steven Hughes? No. That's not Steven Hughes! That's Luke! That must be Luke!'"Luke!" Gwen was running toward Steven like a deranged woman. She hugged the evidently stunned Steven when she reached out to him. "I knew you weren't dead! I knew it! Did you miss me? I missed you so much!
Hearing Steven's deep, low voice from above her head, Gwen's arm around his waist loosened. That voice…was Luke's. However, the way he talked, his tone, and his habits were a far cry from him.Luke would never speak to her in this way. Instead, he would use her finger to pinch her nose and say dotingly, "Silly, did you miss me? I know you can't leave me."To others, Luke was an apathetic man. To her, he was always a warm and caring man. The man that Gwen was hugging had a different tone, different way of speaking, and logic from Luke. Luke from the past would never address a woman so politely, even if he was speaking to outsiders.Gwen took a deep breath and slowly loosened her arms around his waist. She cocked her head to look at the man in front of her.His brow, eyes, nose, jaw, lips… Even the scar on his forehead and the scratch mark on his neck which was caused by Gwen... They were all identical to Luke's.She bit her lip and looked at the man in front of her warily. "Luke, w
"Gwen." Luna finally regained her senses after the shock she received when she first saw Steven up close.She bit her lip. Although she did not know why Luke had become Steven all of a sudden, this was not the time to discuss it.After fighting her way through the onlookers, finally arriving where Gwen and Steven were, she furrowed her brow and spoke with a small voice, "Come, Gwen. Let's go."Gwen, stunned to hear Luna's voice, quickly turned to look at Luna excitedly. "Luna, look! Luke! It's Luke!"She had lost her mind at this point and did not care how others perceived her. "I found Luke, Lulu! Are you seeing this? I found Luke!"Did you know he was supposed to be here? Is that why you brought me here?"Luna's heart throbbed as she faced her friend's rambles. She bit her lip and looked at Steven while apologizing to him."Mr. Hughes, my friend here had experienced something bad not long ago. So…"She extended her hand out to grab Gwen's hand. "Gwen, why don't we leave?" she
"Those people who stood nearer to us should've heard everyone.She was calling me Luke, but as you all know, I'm Steven Hughes. That woman had just lost her loved one, so she's not of a sound mind. Understandably, she had mistaken me for her loved one, and I don't intend to seek compensation from her. But…"Steven paused a while before continuing, "If anyone here escalated this issue to a different level that it affects my relationship with my fiancee, or—God forbid—the cooperation between the Miller family and my family… I think not only will I sue that person, but I'll also make sure they'll have a hard time living in this city."Coldness appeared in his eyes, the intensity matching his tone. "If any of you isn't afraid to offend me, my family, or the Miller family, you're free to post what happened to social media or sell it to the media."Instantly, no one dared to make a sound. The onlookers exchanged looks with each other, visibly intimidated by this ominous taunt.As the on
