The door swung open at the same time Luna put down her phone.A few bodyguards entered the room, and the leader shot Luna a respectful glance. "Yes, Ma'am."Then, he glanced coldly at Steven and said, "Let's go, Mr. Hughes."Steven furrowed his brow upon hearing this. "Is there no room for further discussion, Mrs. Lynch?"He knew how much his parents adored Denise. If he were to go home without her, they would grow concerned and would not cease to find her. This was why he had rushed over as soon as he received Joshua's call without a single regard for his injury.Despite this, he knew he could not simply agree to help Luna and Gwen plot against the Hughes and Miller families.He did not want to choose any of the options Luna gave him. He did not want to leave without Denise, but neither was he willing to betray his family."No," Luna said curtly as she handed Gwen a glass of water. "You've used up all your chances."She glanced at the guards and ordered, "Send Mr. Hughes out!"

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 and Gwen fell silent upon hearing this. The entire room was quiet except for the sound of Denise's slow breathing.Luna was a little caught off guard by this.The audio clip continued to play out an argument between Steven and his parents."How can you say this, Father? She's my sister!""Steven, you know very well that your mother and I had adopted Denise. If it weren't for us, she would've been in a far worse place than she is now. The only reason we had adopted her—provided her with a comfortable life and took care of her like she was our own—was that we wanted her to contribute to this family."The only thing we asked of her in return was to marry Thomas so our family can become even more powerful and aid your career in the future."However, after so many years, not only did she fail in this, but she even allowed Thomas to bring home another woman and even a baby…"She's lost all her value to our family, whereas we've done all we can to help her. If Joshua wants her to

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

Denise's eyes were glossed with tears as she stared at them.Gwen froze for a moment, then immediately glanced at Luna. "She…"Luna rubbed her brow in exasperation. "I thought she was sleeping, so I removed the towel from her mouth so she wouldn't choke."Neither of them had expected Denise to wake up in the middle of their conversation."I heard everything." Denise sighed when she noticed Luna's confusion and said solemnly, "I never…thought things would turn out this way."Denise had always been a good actress.Ever since she was a child, she had to learn ways of feigning obedience to steer attention away from her brother, so she picked up the skill of pretending to fall asleep whenever the adults wanted her to. Not only that, but she was even able to wake up 'on demand' to appease the adults.Even though the adults gradually saw through her as she grew older, she could still fool unsuspecting people, including Luna and Gwen.She had not been asleep this whole time at all.

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

Luna's eyebrows furrowed as she glanced at Denise, then grabbed her phone and walked out of the room.Gwen and Denise were the only people who remained in the room.The air seemed to fall silent."Can you help me with something?" Denise was the first to break the silence.Gwen immediately broke out of her stupor.Denise raised her hands, which were still tied together, and smiled at Gwen. "My hands are beginning to grow numb from the ropes."After contemplating for a moment, Gwen finally sighed and released Denise's bonds."Thank you." Denise rubbed her arms, which sported burns from the rope, and let out a sigh."Did…did you and Steven used to be close?" Gwen asked tentatively as she watched the color return to Denise's face.Denise was silent for a moment before finally nodding. "We…used to be inseparable."She gazed out the window as her thoughts began to drift away. "Steven used to treat me like a princess. Since he had never dated anyone, all his love and affection were

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

Gwen could no longer hear anything Steven said after that.She bit her lip, and despite her gaze remaining on the laptop screen, her thoughts had already drifted far, far away.These days, all her interactions and conversations with Steven flashed through her mind.Then, a memory of Luke.The two of them were lying on the roof at midnight, stargazing, with Luke's arms around her.He curled his lips into a smile and said, "Gwen, sometimes I really wish we could go back in time."If only I hadn't gone into this business, and if only I had met you before I became a gangster."Sometimes, I wonder if things would be better if I became a kind, handsome gentleman with a good family background and education."If I were someone like that, no one would ever dare to bring up your past, and everyone would give us their blessings."Gwen, I really hope that if we do meet again in our next lives, we won't have to deal with something like this again."Gwen bit her lip and wrung her hands whe

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
