Chapter 2724


    Yannie was at the hospital with Luna and Rachel in the midst offorting Gwen when she received


    Thomas‘ call.


    From the moment she returned to the hotel, Gwen had been sitting in silence in front of the window,


    staring out at the view.


    No matter what Luna and Rachel did, Gwen would stare out the window nkly as though she could


    not hear a single word they said until Yannie arrived. Yannie held her hand and patiently described


    everything that had happened–to Steven to her. This was when the familiar gleam in Gwen‘s eyes


    began to return.


    She lifted her head to stare at Yannie in puzzlement. “Are you saying that Steven and Luke were


    possibly brothers or even twins?”


    Yannie nodded. “I overheard Thomas‘ spy saying this. Apparently, the Hughes family had been blessed


    with a set of twin boys, but for some reason, the boys had been ill since birth, and one of them even


    almost died.


    “Therefore, they sought out the help of a fortune teller who foretold that…”


    Yannie paused for a moment before continuing, “He said that one of the children would curse the entire


    family, and this was why his brother was so ill. “Unfortunately, they were superstitious people and thus


    abandoned the ‘cursed‘ child.” Gwen bit her lip and could not help thinking about Luke.


    As the person closest to him, Gwen knew that Luke despised talking about his childhood and family.


    After all, he had no family, and his upbringing had been a tragic one.


    He was adopted and abandoned by families again and again, which was the reason he ended up


    joining a gang during his teenage years.


    However, Luke probably never thought that he was the son of the Hughes family, one of the most


    powerful and influential families in Saigen City.


    He was not an orphan whose parents had died after his birth–he had been abandoned because of


    superstitious beliefs!


    “If Steven and Luke are truly brothers, everything will make sense,” Rachel said. “Identical twins share


    the same gic material, so if Luke‘s heart was a match for Gwen, Steven‘s would, too. ––” guess the


    Hughes family had been nning this for a long time. Steven had gotten into his


    ident about five years ago, and they must‘ve tried every other solution to no avail before finally


    considering using their abandoned son.”


    Gwen bit her lip as a chill went down her spine. He had been abandoned as a baby by his own parents,


    and even before his death, he had been tricked by his own family to ‘rece‘ hisatose brother. A


    twinge of pain shot through Gwen‘s heart at the thought of this.


    Luke.

    Her beloved Luke. Why would God do this to him? Why did everyone Luke met end up abandoning,


    deceiving, or using him? All of a sudden, Yannie‘s phone rang. It was Thomas.


    She nced at the phone and excused herself from the room before answering in the hallway. “Hello?”


    “Yannie,” Thomas‘ low voice rang out. “Will you be willing to apany me to visit my parents at noon


    later?”
