Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy Chapter 2698
The entire room fell silent.Rachel furrowed her brow and glanced first at Gwen, then at Luna.Finally, she cleared her throat and replied, "I know neither of you are willing to accept this, but I'm still obligated to bring this up."Gwen is Luke's girlfriend, not his wife. Thus, legally speaking, she isn't on any grounds to agree to this organ transplant at all. Besides, neither Luke nor his family is obligated to disclose this information to you, so perhaps he or his next-of-kin had signed this agreement without your knowledge."Luna bit her lip. "Luke is an orphan and has no family."Rachel froze. "Then the only person equipped to make this decision is Luke himself."However, according to his original plans, Luke intended to donate his heart to Gwen after his death. Therefore, he couldn't possibly have signed an agreement with the Hughes or Miller families to donate his body to them…"With that, Rachel lifted her head to glance meaningfully at Gwen. "If Luke never signed this

Rachel did not expect Gwen to suddenly bow for her, so she froze momentarily in surprise before finally frowning in disapproval. "Gwen, you're Luna's friend, so you're a friend of mine, too."Even though I've never been an openly warm person, my heart isn't made of stone either, so you don't have to be so courteous with me."She sighed and added, "Let's agree to wait until the DNA report comes out tomorrow before we decide on a course of action, alright?"Gwen nodded earnestly.She lifted her head to glance at Rachel one last time before finally returning to her room.After seeing Gwen close the door behind her, Luna finally sighed and gently patted Rachel's shoulder. "This is a surprise."She never thought that Rachel, who had always been a calm and somewhat stiff person, would talk to Gwen so gently in response to her gratitude.Not only that…This was so foreign to Luna that she could not help thinking that this was not Rachel at all but a stranger who just so happened to lo

Luna was amused by Theo's chattering voice.She sighed and glanced once again at the bathroom, then replied in a whisper, "I saw Rachel declining your call just now."She rubbed her brow in exasperation. "I honestly don't think she'll be willing to come with me to the airport to pick you up."Theo let out a sigh when he heard this. "That's precisely why I called you; I was hoping you could convince her to come see me…"A hint of disappointment crept into Theo's voice. "After all, I had flown here just to see her, and I want to let her know how much I care about her—much more than that fiance of hers does, anyway."Luna did not know what to answer to this.She was close to Caleb. Thus, she knew that Rachel and Caleb's engagement was just a hoax—the two of them were nothing more than friends.Caleb needed this engagement to conceal the truth about his sexual orientation, whereas Rachel just wanted an excuse to stop Theo from chasing her so she could focus on her career.Not only

Theo waited at the airport entrance in his thin clothing for almost half an hour.Just as he thought he was about to freeze to death, a car pulled to a stop in front of him.Thomas stepped out of the car, glanced at this man who was only wearing a thin trench coat in this weather, and could not stop himself from snickering. "You're a world-famous artist, for heaven's sake. How could you have been so stupid?"Theo glanced at him, frowning.He remembered this man; he was the celebrity rumored to be dating a servant who worked for Luna. Not only that, but it was later exposed that he was, in fact, Joshua's cousin.Theo's expression fell at this realization.The fact that Thomas had come meant that Joshua was probably here too, but he did not even call Joshua for help.This meant that Luna was the one who had sent them.The reason Luna had asked them for help was that…she did not manage to change Rachel's mind about refusing to see him. Since the only reason he had contacted Luna w

Joshua's remark had reopened the wound that Theo so desperately wanted to stop thinking about. His expression darkened, and he turned to stare out the window, avoiding Joshua's gaze. "I guess it's a little bit of both."Thomas turned to shoot Joshua a helpless look. "Why did you have to probe at his wound like that?"Then, he glanced at Theo with a sympathetic expression and added, "Don't worry, my friend. It takes time and patience to wait for the woman you love to come around."Joshua curled his lips into a smirk and raised his brows at Thomas. "I'm surprised you'd say that."Thomas claimed that patience was needed to wait for a woman to change her mind, but he had shown no sign of patience at all when trying to win over Yannie's heart.Thomas rolled his eyes at Joshua but did not reply.Lucas, who was sitting in the driver's seat, chuckled at this. "This is the first I've ever seen you and Mr. Howard bicker so lightheartedly, Sir."Joshua and Thomas had been so preoccupied wi

Gwen was standing at Rachel's door, holding a tray of muffins she had just baked. She grinned at Rachel and said, "Dr. Liddell, it's already sixty-thirty in the morning now. Luna told me you've always been an early riser, so I figured you'd be awake by now."She handed Rachel a muffin and added, "I don't really know what you like, so I decided to just wing it. I hope it's good enough!"Rachel pursed her lips slightly at this. "Gwen, you're Luna and Theo's friend, so that means you're a friend of mine, too."The reason I had come to Saigen City was that I noticed how similar Steven looked to Luke in the photo attached with his file. That's why I decided to fly over to see what was happening."She took the muffin from Gwen and explained, "You don't have to be so courteous to me, and I don't need you to keep thanking me like this. This is what a friend—and a doctor—should do."Then, she smiled at Gwen. "Thank you for your kindness. From today onward, we're even, so you don't have to

Since she already knew it was the DNA Diagnostic Center calling, Rachel picked the call up and put it on speaker so Gwen could listen, too.The operator's robotic voice rang out, "We've already sent a digital copy of the DNA report to your email, but if you require the original document, feel free to stop by our center to retrieve it at any time.""Thank you," Rachel replied before hanging up.As she did this, she instinctively glanced at Gwen.Gwen's face had flushed red in excitement and anticipation, but she did not make any move to enter Rachel's room at all.No matter how excited she was, Gwen was still cautious not to overstep her welcome.How could anyone bear to hurt such a vulnerable woman?Rachel sighed, grabbed hold of Gwen's hand, and pulled her into the room. Then, she turned on her laptop.Gwen sat down in the chair, her back as straight as a rod, and was in so much anticipation that she did not know where to place her hands.She was behaving like a student waiti

Gwen's entire body froze when she heard this. She turned to stare dazedly at Luna, then at Rachel.Finally, she bit her lip and sat on the edge of Rachel's bed. "I can't do it."If she had not known about what happened to Luke and Steven, she would have wanted to treat Steven as though he were Luke and attempt to restore his 'memories' of her.However, after finding out the truth, she could no longer bring herself to do this.The thought of Steven occupying Luke's body without his permission and causing Luke's consciousness to cease its existence…disgusted her so much that she could not look at him the same way again.If Steven was to materialize in front of her, she would probably kill him.Under these circumstances, she could not bring herself to pretend Steven was Luke as though nothing had happened.She could not do it!"Gwen…" Luna bit her lip and grabbed hold of Gwen's arm, intending to say something, but no words came out.She had talked about this with Joshua the night

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
