Semua Bab Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy: Bab 2751 - Bab 2760

Luna paused for a moment, then nodded. "Alright. Send me an email with the audio recordings, and I'll listen to them right now."She then hung up the phone. As she did this, Luna glanced out the window and realized that the sun had already set.She and Gwen had been sitting there for more than five hours."Did they find out anything through the recording device?" Gwen asked, frowning.Luna nodded. "When did you even place it on Steven, anyway?"Gwen sniffed, picked up a tissue from the table, and wiped her tear-stained face. "I planted it there when I was hugging him."Even though Gwen had temporarily lost all her rationality that moment, she still remembered her task, so she slipped the recording device into Steven's back pocket while embracing him.Even though she was unsure of Steven's habits, she still remembered that Luke never used to check his back pockets. Therefore, she gambled her chances and assumed that Steven was the same.It seemed that she had guessed correctly.

Luna instinctively glanced at Gwen after the recording ended.Gwen, too, turned to stare at her.Both their faces were etched with utter disbelief.How…could this be?Did the Hughes family not adore Denise beyond anyone else? Did Steven not say that Mr. and Mrs. Hughes practically treated Denise like their own?How could they have chosen to give up on Denise so easily after knowing she had offended Thomas?"Although I must say, this seems pretty consistent with their style." Gwen was the first one to break out of her stupor. She curled her lips into a smirk and added, "More than two decades ago, they had abandoned a one-year-old baby just because of their superstitious beliefs, so we shouldn't be surprised that they'd choose to give up on their daughter just to get on Thomas and Joshua's good sides. Regardless…"Gwen sneered and turned to glance at Denise. "I can't help feeling bad for her. According to Steven, Denise hadn't truly loved Thomas at all—she just chose to because sh

Upon hearing this, Luna first glanced at Gwen, frowning, then turned to gaze at Denise. "Ms. Hughes, when you say show your brother mercy, you mean…"Denise closed her eyes and let out a sigh. Finally, she opened her eyes and fixated her gaze on Gwen. "I just hope that if I can help you avenge your boyfriend's death and punish those who fooled and disrespected him, Ms. Larson…you'll forgive my brother for his wrongdoings."I've always thought that my brother is just a victim in this. He had no idea what was going on and had done nothing wrong, but he still occupied your boyfriend's body, after all, so I hope that if I manage to help you get what you want, you'll choose to leave my brother alone. I don't even need you to help me beg for Thomas and Yannie's mercy; all I want is for my brother to be okay. He…"Denise's breath caught in her throat. "He's the best brother anyone can ever have."From the conversation between Steven, Gwen, and Luna, Denise realized that despite knowing si

Gwen pursed her lips upon hearing this but did not reply.After a long time, she finally sighed and said, "Alright. I promise."In the past, she had failed to consider that Steven, too, was someone with loved ones and family.Since Steven and Denise were both willing to pay the price of what had happened…she did not have the right to continue depriving Steven of the right to his life and freedom, and he was not at all obliged to do anything on behalf of Luke.This was the best outcome any of them could ever hope for."Thank you." Denise let out a sigh and got off the bed, then sat down in Luna's chair. She stared at the audio files on the laptop screen and asked, "These are all the recordings of the conversation between Steven and Mr. and Mrs. Hughes, correct?"Gwen fell silent for a moment, secretly a little annoyed by the fact that Denise had sat down in Luna's chair and looked at her laptop without permission. On second thought, after what Denise just said, Gwen decided not to

On the balcony.Luna let out an exhale and regained her composure before finally dialing Yannie's number.Denise wanted to know what was going on with Thomas, and in Luna's opinion, no one would know this better than Yannie.Yannie picked up the phone almost immediately. "Hello, Luna."Luna pursed her lips. "Yannie, how…how are things on your end?"Yannie paused for a moment, then turned to glance at the room. With the help of the doctors and nurses, Thomas was slowly putting his clothes back on. "I…can't say."For some reason, Thomas had suffered amnesia regarding the events that had transpired. He could not remember anything that happened at Howard Mansion, or, to be precise, he could not seem to recall anything that happened after Senior Howard got shot.His memory seemed to have stopped there.However, he could vaguely recall that someone had spiked his food, and he had some recollection of sleeping with a woman, but he did not know the identity of said woman.Therefore, a
