"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 Gwen continued to stare in the direction where Steven was, a female voice rang out, calling, "Luna, Gwen!"Gwen and Luna were baffled to hear their names and raised their heads simultaneously.It was Rachel, standing before them and wearing a white business suit, looking proud and professional. She had luggage with her as she had just arrived in this city."I just got off the plane and Theo called me, telling me that you're both in Saigen City. I was going to get your contact number from him to meet up, but I didn't expect to see you both here at the airport."She then looked at the luggage Gwen was sitting on. "Are you guys…""We were planning to leave, but we've got unfinished business, so we're not leaving anymore," Luna responded and smiled at Rachel. She took a look at Steven, who was still waiting for someone at the exit, and squinted. "Theo called me just now. He told me you're here to visit a patient.""Yes." Rachel nodded and unconsciously looked at Gwen. "I'm here…be

    'But…I thought Rachel specializes in the study of vegetative patients. Why did Steven reach out to Rachel?'With that thought in her mind, Gwen furrowed her brow. Just when she was about to say something, Steven walked toward them."Dr. Liddell." He smiled and extended his hand out to shake hands with Rachel. "I came to pick you up."Rachel offered a sheepish smile. "I just got off the plane and saw my friends…"She took a deep breath and introduced her friends to Steven without any means of hiding them. "This is Luna, a talented jewelry designer. This here is Gwen, a woman talented in her own rights, too."Steven paused and looked at Luna. He was amazed to find out the woman he just met was Joshua's wife, Luna. He had repeatedly looked at Luna's information when he was investigating Joshua.A piece of news from seven years ago reported Luna was dead. One year later, there was news saying Luna was about to marry Malcolm from the Quinn family in Merchant City. A few months afterwa

    Steven was being very obvious that he did not want to continue being around Luna and Gwen.Rachel furrowed her brow and looked at Luna and Gwen, as well as the luggage they had beside them. In the end, she smiled and passed her luggage to Luna. "Can you please keep my luggage where you're staying?"Luna nodded and understood what Rachel wanted to say. She took over the luggage Rachel passed to her and smiled. "Sure. Go ahead and carry on. Call us when you are done."She then looked at Gwen. "Shall we?"Gwen was staring at Steven the whole time, and she finally regained her senses when she heard Luna asking her a question. To answer Luna, she nodded. "Okay."The closer she was to Steven, the more assured she was that the man in front of her was Luke. However, Steven denied that he was Luke, so she did not dare to do anything.It was best to follow Luna back to the hotel. She could ask Rachel more about Luke's condition after Rachel gave him a thorough consultation. Rachel was a fr

    In fact, the Miller family contacted Rachel, too. At that time, Rachel was too proud of herself that when the Miller family wanted to sponsor her, they were giving her an expression that they were doing her a favor. Thus, she rejected them.Over time, the Miller family finally knew they had crossed Rachel unintentionally. Thus, they went to look for her personally in hopes she could help to save Steven. Alas, Rachel had already had a bad impression of the Miller family and declined.The reason she was willing to come to Saigen City to treat Steven this time was because she saw Steven's profile and thought he looked identical to Luke. As Gwen's friend, she felt compelled to come and observe the situation first-hand. Hence, she decided to fly in immediately."The doctors from my fiancee's family had consulted me once," Steven answered while bringing Rachel to the car park. He smiled. "They said I was under a lot of stress, so they gave me some medicines to release my stress. That's al

    Kate furrowed her brow at what her mother was saying. She snatched the phone from Mrs. Miller and glared at her. "Mom, why are you saying such things again? I told you, didn't I? I spent one year beside the man, and I know he's not a bad person. If the Hughes family didn't abandon him, he wouldn't have ended up the way he did. If he was some sort of crazy man, I'd never agree to let him replace Steven. I…"Suddenly, Kate did not remember what she was going to say when she saw the photo on the phone.After all, the people on the phone were Steven and Gwen.The woman Steven was hugging was Gwen!It seemed like the photo was taken at the airport.Gwen was in Steven's arms with tears on her face. She was closely attached to him, and her hands were around Steven's waist. Steven was looking down at her with a frown with a visibly troubled expression.The photo had Kate's blood pressure skyrocketing. No matter how Kate avoided it, Steven and Gwen still met! Luna and Gwen were supposed t

    Kate was the only one in this building who knew Luke had a girlfriend.When Luke sought medical help from the Miller family, he told them Gwen was his sister to show how determined he was to save Gwen's life. Everyone knew Luke was actually a Hughes, and his sister was Denise. Alas, no one pointed it out. They thought Gwen was the daughter of Luke's foster parents.Later, Kate found out about the real relationship between Luke and Gwen when she was living with Luke. Thus, those who knew Luke replaced Steven thought Luke was doing it all for his foster sister. Only Kate knew the truth.They only cared if Luke's body was suitable to be Steven's replacement. No one cared about Gwen. Thus, they did not know Gwen was actually Luke's partner.Currently…Kate looked at the photo on the phone, and it felt as though a large hand clutched her heart in an iron grip. 'In the end, I still failed to keep him by my side, huh? Even after Luke's memory was erased from his brain, he still can't for

    Rachel furrowed her brow after hearing what Steven had to say. She narrowed her eyes and looked at this man who had clear and pure eyes.She frowned.The old Luke she knew was a gangster leader. He had an extraordinary identity, and his method of solving problems was different from regular folks. He had the skill and ability to trick all of the people in Sea City and Merchant City. He had vicious, cold eyes; ones that looked beyond and further than everyone else.However, this man who went by the name of Steven Hughes had clear, bright eyes, much like the eyes of a kid who had not known the evil in the world.Rachel hesitated when she saw the look in Steven's eyes. She furrowed her brow and looked into his eyes. "Do you really want to know what happened?"She was a doctor. She understood once Steven knew the truth, his future would never be peaceful anymore. Thus, she had to remind Steven of all of the pros and cons before telling him the truth.Steven nodded as an ominous feelin

    Rachel put the glass down on a nearby table and glanced impassively at Steven, who was standing at the door. "Is this the kind and loving girlfriend of yours you told me about?"Kate faltered momentarily at the sight before her. She furrowed her brow and shot Rachel a puzzled look. "What're you doing here?"Was it not Gwen who came home with Steven?""What's wrong? You don't like seeing me here?" Rachel curled her lips into a smirk and crossed her arms in front of her chest. Then, she leaned against the chair and gave Kate a disdainful once-over. "Have I disappointed you? Who did you expect to see standing here, if not me? Do you need my help in contacting her and getting her here?"Kate's expression darkened upon hearing this. She narrowed her eyes and glared at Rachel. "Don't you dare!""What makes you think I don't?" Rachel stood up, picked up her doctor's bag, and sauntered in Kate's direction. "Considering the fact that I even dared to accept your precious fiance's invitation

    At that, he looked at Gwen. "Actually…"Steven found himself unable to finish his sentence. After a long while, he shook his head and smiled. "Forget about it.""Steven…" Gwen looked at him, and her tears fell.Her heart was not made of stone. How could she not know Steven's feelings toward her?She was silent for a long while. In the end, she stood up and slowly walked over to Steven with arms opened wide. "Give me a hug."Steven hesitated for a while, but he still stood up.They hugged."Gwen." Steven hugged her thin figure. "I have to meet you earlier in the next life so I can compete fairly with my brother."Gwen nodded with tears streaming down her face. "Okay."They thus hugged once more. Minutes later…"He's gone," said Stefan.Tears kept falling.They hugged for a while longer before pulling apart. Gwen looked at Stefan with her tear-stricken face. He had tears on his face as well.She bit her lips and reached out to wipe his tears. "A—Are these tears…yours or his?

    The next day, Rachel flew from Merchant City to Sharnwick City to diagnose Anne's condition. Theo tagged along as well because he had another identity, Rachel's boyfriend."According to the report, Anne's condition is slowly recuperating." Rachel was relieved after assessing the report. "Although she is very weak, she is going to get better with lots of rest."There is nothing wrong with her vocal cords too. It could be a psychological thing that makes her lose her voice. A knot in her heart that causes it." She looked at Luna, then at John. "Considering all factors, I think that knot is Luna."Rachel continued, "John, I know Luna is the root cause of all these bad things. Being away from Luna, Joshua, and other people is going to guarantee a safer life for you and your family. But have you thought about it from Anne's point of view? Other than you and Sammie, she has her own life and her circle of friends. Never has she blamed Luna for what happened, yet you forced her to leave Lun

    It was almost a miracle for Anne to willingly leave the house just to visit him!Robyn, meanwhile, sobbed at the sight.The nurse who accompanied Anne to the ward was puzzled. What was going on with these people?She snuck her phone out of her pocket and took a photo of this surreptitiously. Then, she sent it into the nurse's group chat with the caption, [What a strange family I met today.]The nurses in the group chat began gossiping about this. One of them tagged a fellow nurse named Daisy and said, [Hey, isn't this the guy who saved the old man you're looking after? What a hero!]Daisy was, at this moment, walking into Andy's room to help him change his wound dressing. She saw the message but was not able to type on her keyboard to respond, so she recorded a voice message instead. "Yes, that's the man. What's wrong with his family? What are you guys talking about?"As soon as she finished her sentence, she lifted her head and finally realized that Andy was not there.Instead,

    Anne stared at John for a long time before forcibly smiling and told him in sign language, "Robyn didn't return after so long, so I got worried and came by to check on her.""Daddy, Aunt Robyn, are you two hugging?" Sammie asked, blinking innocently as she raised her head in curiosity.John and Robyn turned pale at this.It was understandable for such a young child like Sammie to misinterpret them as hugging, but what would Anne think of this?John leaped off the bed and staggered toward Anne. "Anne, it's just a misunderstanding…"However, he was still so weak that his legs could not hold up the full weight of his body at all, and he almost crumpled to the ground.Quick-witted Robyn managed to catch him before he could fall, but this gesture appeared once again rather intimate to both Anne and Sammie. Sammie furrowed her brow and asked rather indignantly, "Are you hugging again? Daddy, how can you hug Aunt Robyn like this when you've never even hugged Mommy and me like this befor

    When the nurse pushed Anne to John's ward, she overheard John and Robyn fighting from the door. The fight was about how John was anxious to return home because he was worried about Anne and Sammie.However, as someone who used to work as a nurse, Robyn knew John should not leave the hospital after being shot by a gun. At least, he needed to stay in the hospital and be observed for 24 hours to make sure that he was fine before leaving the hospital. If an infection happened, John's body would crash easily and he would become weak just like Anne.In the ward, John frowned and talked with a serious tone, "I'm really fine. Get me my clothes so I can go upstairs to thank Miss Andie and go back home immediately. If Anne knows that I'm hurt, she is going to worry. She will easily be suspicious since you haven't gone back home for a long time. What if she worries about me and brings Sammie to the hospital to look for me? Can you bear yourself even just thinking about it? She's weak and Sammie

    Sammie's soft and cute babyish voice melted Stefan's heart immediately. It had been quite some time since he actually put a smile on his face. "Hi, there. What's your name and how old are you?"Sammie tilted her head to look at Stefan's handsome face and smiled sweetly, "I'm Samantha but everyone calls me Sammie."Then she did not forget to introduce Anne to Stefan too. "This is my Mommy. Her name is Anne."At this point, Stefan had given all of his attention to Sammie and did not notice Sammie mentioned that her mother's name was Anne. He pinched Sammie's cheek and said, "Your Mommy is not feeling well. You have to be a good girl and take care of her, do you understand?"Sammie nodded seriously and said, "I will.""Alright, sir. I will bring them to where they want to go," the nurse saw Anne signing to her anxiously. She smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will take good care of them."The promise from the nurse gave an assurance to Stefan that they would be well taken off. He smil

    This was the first time Anne brought Sammie out. Ever since she escaped from death, she became a different person—a recluse and was afraid of the sun. This situation became even worse after she became mute.The last time she left the house was two weeks ago when she had to go for surgery.However, she worried about John. In the morning, Robyn told her John was hurt and needed to stay in the hospital to rest. However, she had a hard time believing what Robyn said.After spending so many years together with John, Anne reckoned she was the one who knew John the most. If it was a minor injury, John would never want to stay in the hospital. He cared too much about her and Sammie, so he never dared to let her worry about him. Therefore, it just did not sound reasonable if John would stay in the hospital because of a small injury.Furthermore, Robyn had not returned home since the morning, which was nearly three hours since she left the house. After much consideration, she decided to call

    Tara fell silent upon hearing this. She bit her lip nervously and shot Gwen a tentative glance. "I didn't mean to offend you, Gwen…" "I know." Gwen let out an exhale and interrupted Tara before she could finish, "I know you meant no harm, but I can't deny that this is something I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around. In the future, neither of you—even you, Luna—should bring this up again." Her love life was such a mess that not even she could unravel the ties, much less expect other people to understand. Tara pursed her lips and did not reply. Luna stared at Gwen in silence for a while before finally saying, "But you have to face this eventually, Gwennie. After all that you've been through with Luke, all of us hope for nothing but the best for the two of you. Even if you avoid it now, you'll have to face the truth eventually. Otherwise, are you planning on spending the rest of your life in this complicated relationship with Luke? Can you bear the thought of not being

    Stefan was mildly amused by the look on her face. He extended his arms out in a gesture of defeat and said, "I never intended on ratting you out to Joshua. You three spoke about these secrets in my presence." With that, he shot Andy a rather helpless look. "Don't you agree, sir?" Andy was surprised to be called out all of a sudden. "Of course!" Although Gwen and Luke had been together for a long time, Luke had never much cared for maintaining good relations with his future father-in-law. He always thought his relationship with Gwen did not concern anyone else outside of the two of them. Combined with the fact that Andy had done some hurtful things to Gwen in the past, Luke grew even more disdainful of his future father-in-law. Because of this, he had never given Andy as much as a second glance throughout their relationship and rarely ever addressed him directly like this. The truth was, Stefan had already called out to Andy once before, during their rescue mission the day befor
