Chapter 2537


    Luke nodded. “Kate is on her way to the airport to pick up the surgical specialist team now. It‘s going to


    happen tomorrow morning.” For a brief moment, silence hung on both ends of the call until Joshua


    sighed.” Let‘s meet and have a drink.”


    “No.” Luke smiled. “The surgery is tomorrow. It‘s not good to have high alcohol content in my blood.”


    Joshua sighed helplessly. “You can drink water, you know.”


    “I don‘t have the time. I need to prepare for the aftermath,” declined Luke indifferently. “Joshua, I‘m


    happy to have made friends with you...but we‘re both men, and there‘s no need for remorse or sadness


    about one‘s departure. Let‘s not meet. When...”


    He paused. “When the surgery is finished tomorrow, you and Jim can send me away onest time.


    “I‘ve had a bad life. I wasn‘t born into a good family, had one too many bad experiences, and was never


    blessed with a proper status or job. There‘s not a lot I can give Gwen, so hopefully, she won‘t meet me


    again in the next life.” He took a deep breath and muttered solemnly, “I hope that you and Luna will be


    able to take care of her for me. Heck, it‘ll be better if...you can find a good man to take care of her. I


    trust whomever you‘ll choose.”


    Joshua grasped his phone tightly and sighed while listening to Luke‘s forlorn words. He knew Luke had


    always been very stubborn and persistent. Since it had reached this stage, no words would alter his


    decision, so Joshua kept his silence and nodded. “This is goodbye then, brother.”


    “Come on. You said it like I‘m entering the operation theater now.” Luke smiled faintly. “It‘s not toote


    to tell me this when I‘m lying in the mortuary tomorrow.


    After that, he sighed. “Joshua, let‘s be friends again in the next life. Goodbye.” Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    With that, Luke hung up.


    He then turned to see one of his men crying profusely, his tears wetting his face entirely.


    “Pass the message. I‘ll be bringing several brothers to Sea City to settle the gang‘s issue at 12 tonight.


    Let them get ready. We‘ll leave tonight.”


    The myrmidon feebly nodded FeXh]){M stammered, “Sir...”


    “Save your tears for the future.” He looked to the far side as he narrowed his eves. “Don‘t tell Gwen the


    news yet when her surgery is done; I fear that she may just be devastated. Tell her only when the


    doctor says she‘s stable. Tell her I fought with the people in Sea City until myst breath, and they


    failed to resuscitate me. Can you remember this?“.


    The man wiped his tears and nodded. “I understand...” Luke shut his eyes and stayed silent for a long


    time. Finally, he curled up his lips into a smile. “Send me to the hospital. I want...to apany her for


    the final hour.”


    At the airport


    Kate had just gotten out of her car when a ck Kayenne stopped in front of her, stopping her in her


    path. The window was rolled down, revealing Jim inside the car.


    “Ms. Miller, are you free? Let‘s talk.”


    Kate‘s eyebrows furrowed at this and she turned away, wanting to walk past his car. “I have something


    to do. I don‘t have the time to talk to you.”


    Jim raised an eyebrow. “If you don‘t want me locking up your team of specialists, you better make


    some time for me.”
