Chapter 2691

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

Kate froze when she heard this.A split second later, she lifted her head, staring right into Steven's searching gaze, and bit her lip nervously. "What are you trying to say, Steven? Do you not trust me?"Steven chuckled when he saw how Kate tried to deflect responsibility. "You're the one who didn't trust me in the first place."Steven never thought that his fiancee would secretly track his every move.If she had not, how could she have discovered the address of his private residence, much less know that he had brought a woman home from the airport?Steven did not remember much about his first impression of Kate. Although he had known since he was young that the Hughes and Miller families were close and had a marriage agreement, he never cared much about these customs.However, when he awoke after five years of being in a coma, everyone told him that he and Kate had gotten engaged prior to his accident. Not only that, but his parents also emphasized how much Kate had sacrificed

Perhaps Kate had done it all for his own good.However…"Kate." Steven gently clasped Kate's hand. "If… If you truly love and care about me as much as you claim, why have you never shown a hint of concern whenever I told you about my headaches and nightmares?"Kate froze when she heard this.A split second later, she bit her lip and replied, "I can explain. Are you willing to listen to me, Steven?"…At the hotel.Ever since they returned from the airport, Gwen had locked herself in the room in despair.Luna was worried that something terrible would happen, so she secretly went down to the lobby to request a copy of Gwen's room key, then surreptitiously opened the door to see what Gwen was doing.All this while, Gwen had been sitting in front of the laptop, reading through pages and pages of information about Steven.Since Steven had grown up in Saigen City and hailed from one of the wealthiest families here, information about his upbringing could easily be found on the inter

Joshua closed his eyes and sighed. "Luna, please calm down, and I'll explain everything."Luna furrowed her brow upon hearing this.She plopped down in the lounge chair on the balcony and narrowed her eyes as she stared at the snow-covered city beyond. "Alright, I'm listening."She wanted to hear what he had to say about this.Joshua sighed when he sensed Luna's rage and said slowly, "I know that you're mad at me right now, but please think about this: What was Steven's reaction like when you bumped into him at the airport today? Did he admit that he was Luke, or did he patiently listen to you recounting your memories with Luke?"Try to remember Gwen's reaction when she saw Steven just now and how she has been acting over the last few days… If you were me, would you have come forward with the truth after seeing just how unhinged Gwen had been over the past few days at any mention of Luke?"Luna was silent after hearing this.She bit her lip and recalled how Gwen had looked in th

Before Luna could even finish her sentence, the door to Gwen's room was flung open.Gwen stormed out of the room and desperately grabbed Rachel's hands. "What happened, Dr. Liddell? Is Steven…"Tears brimmed in her eyes as she stared earnestly at Rachel. "Is… Is he Luke?"When she saw the look in Gwen's eyes, Rachel bit her lip and sighed. Then, she reached out to hold Gwen's hand in consolation. "Gwen, why don't you first tell me how you're doing?"Gwen had just received her heart transplant less than two months ago, and Rachel was worried that Gwen's heart would not be able to handle the news she had to give."I'm doing well." Gwen bit her lip as tears slid down her cheeks. "Please tell me the truth, Dr. Liddell. I promise that I can handle it."A twinge of pain shot through Luna's heart at the sight of this. She strode over to them and picked up a tissue to gently dab at Gwen's tears. "No matter what happens, Gwen, promise me that you'll face the truth, okay?"Gwen nodded as

The atmosphere in the room suddenly turned quiet.Rachel furrowed her brow and turned to stare at Gwen with a look of disbelief.Rachel was a doctor who specialized in the treatment of comatose patients, so she had seen plenty during her time and was thus always able to keep calm even in stressful situations.To be frank, Rachel's first impression of Gwen had not been a good one.Rachel remembered the numerous times Gwen had tried to escape from Luke while in Merchant City. Not only that, but she even witnessed Gwen trying to persuade Kate to help her take care of Luke after she was gone.Therefore, Rachel had always thought of Gwen as a labile and extremely emotionally-driven person.However, this same woman was asking her about Luke's demise so calmly and in such a collected manner that it shocked Rachel.She glanced again at Gwen, frowning. "I thought that after running into Steven, your entire brain would be so preoccupied with thoughts of Luke that you wouldn't be able to t

If this were the case…it would perfectly explain why Steven had been acting so differently.Gwen bit her lip and suddenly felt her head spin. A twinge of pain shot through her heart, and she instinctively took a step back.Luna quickly stormed over to catch her and held her securely in her arms.After setting Gwen gently down on the sofa, Luna lifted her head to stare at Rachel. "Since you say that Steven's brain is now residing in Luke's body…what about Luke?"She bit her lip nervously and gave Rachel a searching look. "What about Luke's brain, then? What happened to all his thoughts, his past, and his entire being?"This was the question that Gwen, too, wanted to know the answer to.She bit her lip and stared expectantly at Rachel, hoping to hear the answer she wanted, but…Rachel closed her eyes and sighed. "They probably got rid of it and buried it with Steven's body."Then, she was silent for a long time before finally meeting Gwen's gaze. "I know this isn't the answer you

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

Chapter 2700

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
