Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy Chapter 2867
Joshua had said it before—they hoped Gwen could pretend to be Steven's girlfriend to distract Steven's parents. Therefore, Gwen was not surprised when Joshua said that.She pursed her lips and looked at Joshua with a pair of serious eyes. "Do I need to do it now?"She thought there was time for her to prepare mentally."We don't have much time left." Joshua looked down at his watch to check the time and said, "It's going to take roughly half a day for you and Steven to get ready and ask Steven's parents out to the restaurant."And, since we don't know the exact location where Denise and Sean are in the residence, we can't guarantee Sean has an adequate food supply. Most importantly…"He gave Gwen a serious look. "If we don't distract Steven's parents soon, I'm scared they might be cornered in desperation and sell Denise to someone else."Luna frowned as she heard that. "Are you saying…""Yes." Joshua interrupted her indifferently to express affirmation of her assumption. "You sh

What Joshua said startled Gwen as she stared at him dumbfoundedly. "Seriously?""Why do you think it only took him twenty minutes to arrive here, then?" Joshua glanced at Gwen. "I know you don't want to owe him anything or be too involved with him, but you need to face the reality, Gwen."No matter how you try to avoid it, you can't deny the fact that you had accepted many favors from him."He lowered his head and continued organizing the document on the table. "Nonetheless, you don't have to feel too stressed about it. After all, he's Luke's brother, and he's using Luke's body. He's the beneficiary of all of these. It's right for him to help you."Gwen bit her lip and did not know how to react to what Joshua said."Why did you tell all those?" Luna frowned and raised her hand to knock on Joshua's head. She then turned and looked at Gwen with a smile. "Don't mind what he said. Calm yourself first. Our priority now is to save Denise and Sean."Now that Sean has a lot of evidence t

When Gwen was down at the lobby, Steven's car was parked just right in front of the hotel entrance. The sky was snowing a little, yet there was already a thick layer of snow on Steven's car.Gwen bit her lip when she saw the layer of snow. Even if she did not believe what Joshua said, she had to believe it when she saw Steven's car.Joshua was right. Steven must have come after she called him…or maybe, he could have been waiting for a long time even before she called him.The snow could not have piled up that thickly in a short time, especially when it was only snowing a little.The gratitude and guilt she felt for Steven accumulated even more. She took a deep breath and opened the car door to get in. "Have you waited for a long time?"Steven smiled and looked at her calmly. "I just arrived.""Just arrived?" Gwen raised an eyebrow. "How could there be snow that's almost three to four centimeters thick on your car if you just arrived?"The question caught Steven off-guard as he f

"Steven!"Mrs. Hughes was thrilled when she saw the caller ID on her phone screen. She picked up the call excitedly. "Have you thought it through? I told you. As long as you change your mind, you'll forever be my precious son! You're our only son when we chose you over Luke twenty years ago!"She was so excited that she forgot where she was and she did not care if she embarrassed herself in front of Mr. Hoffman. "Denise is just an orphan we adopted. Her life is worth nothing to us. It's not worth falling out with us because of her. It just isn't worth it!"Where are you now? Do you need us to send someone to pick you up? As long as you are willing to come back, me, you and your father will still be a loving and happy family, okay?"Steven furrowed his brow as he quietly listened to what his mother had to say. After a while, his mother finally finished what she wanted to say.He took a deep breath and said, "Mother."His voice sounded heavy. "Gwen and I would like to sit and eat w

"You can't stop me," Steven interjected as soon as she finished her sentence. "I don't care what any of you think; I want to be with Gwen. This is between the two of us, and is none of your business."All of a sudden, he recalled the reason he had called his mother in the first place, so he took a deep breath and calmed himself down. "Mother, you've misunderstood all this. Gwen and I truly love each other, and if you don't believe me, feel free to come to visit us, and bring Father along, too. Gwen and I will show you how genuine we are."Mrs. Hughes could not help snickering when she heard this. "You're going to show me how genuine you are? How naive of you to think you truly love each other! You're just a gullible man being strung along by a calculating witch!"She sneered and added, "My dear son, please open your eyes and see that woman for what she truly is! All she wants from you is your life!"Steven curled his lips into a smirk. "Mother, I've already told you; if you and Fat

The Orient.When Mr. and Mrs. Hughes arrived at the restaurant, Gwen was entwined in Steven's arms, being fed pieces of fruit.The door was half-shut, and even from a distance, Mrs. Hughes could hear Gwen's gentle voice saying, "Steven, I want you to feed me."Yes, I want some oranges, please. I want you to peel it and feed it to me piece by piece. That's how Luke used to do it."Steven's heart lurched in his chest as he stared at the soft, babyish woman sitting in his lap.He knew better than anyone that Gwen was just acting, yet he still could not help feeling his heart race.He knew that he would never be Luke, but this tiny sliver of tenderness he received from Gwen was more than enough.He curled his lips into a smile as he peeled the orange and gently pried it into tiny pieces, then proceeded to pop each piece into Gwen's mouth.Peeking through the sliver in the door frame, Mrs. Hughes immediately caught sight of the content smile on Steven's face, and this sent her boili

The color drained from Mrs. Hughes' face as she replied, "I have no idea what you're talking about.""Alright then." Gwen curled her lips into a small smile but did not intend to pursue this topic any further. "Well, just because you don't admit it doesn't mean we can ignore all the things you did."With that, she turned to shoot Steven a tender glance and added, "Are you afraid, my dear? Please don't cry if your mother sets up an arranged marriage with other people for you! After all, not even Denise cried when she had to go through that."Steven furrowed his brow when he heard this. A split second later, he reached out to clasp Gwen's hand and said calmly, "Don't worry, I won't, but more importantly—"He lifted his head to stare in Mr. and Mrs. Hughes' direction. "I'm sure Mother and Father wouldn't do this to me.""Why wouldn't they?" Gwen said, smiling. "After all, they had promised the Millers to allow you and Kate to become a couple should they successfully revive you. At th

Gwen raised her eyebrows. "That's right."She turned to glance at Steven, who still had his arms wrapped tightly around her. "My dear, you, too, know that you're just a replacement for Luke, don't you?"Steven lowered his head to meet her sparkling gaze, then gulped. "Of course I do."With that, he lifted his head to stare at his parents. "I know I'm just a replacement, and I know that Gwen doesn't truly love me at all—she just wants me for my body, but…"His grip around her tightened as though he wanted to inhale every single particle of her body into his. "I'm willing to do that."On second thought, I have both of you to thank for this, Father, and Mother. If it weren't for you, I would never have regained my consciousness, and would never have discovered that I had a twin brother."Most importantly, I would never have met this beautiful girl."He chuckled as he added, "The reason I brought Gwen here to meet you is to let you see what a miracle you guys created.

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
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy Chapter 3088
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
