Chapter 2839


    Steven was stunned to hear Gwen’s offer. He never thought she would willingly aid him to rescue


    Denise without the slightest hesitation. He assumed that she would hate Denise, what with being good


    friends with Luna and Yannie. She must have known the things Denise did.


    Gwen smiled as though she could read Steven’s mind. “Is it that hard to believe I want to do a good


    thing?


    Flustered, Steven shook his head. “I don’t mean that. I..”


    Halfway through the sentence, he frowned and stopped himself from talking.


    “You know, Denise talked a lot about you yesterday.” Seeing how Steven was visibly struggling to reply,


    Gwen curled up her lips and smiled. “I know Denise isn’t really a bad person.”


    That sentence shocked Steven. After a while, he curled up his lips and smiled bitterly. He stood up and


    walked outside as he took his jacket.


    Sighing, he said, “I thought you were like the others and assumed Denise is a horrendous character.


    What did you two talk about?”


    Gwen stood up and walked with him. “Denise said…maybe you’re thest person in this world who


    truly cared for her. She even said…”


    She paused for a while before deciding to tell Steven everything Denise said to her. “She said she


    doesn’t want you to be Luke and doesn’t want to see you disappear from this world. Also…”


    She sniffed and gazed into the distance. “Everyone, including me, only cares about Luke and forgot


    that you, Steven, are a person too–someone with his own life. He’s a real person who shares an


    existence in this world too. There are people who miss him and the people whom he misses too.”


    After that, she looked to the side to look at Steven. “I know that you’re thinking of consulting the doctor


    to help me get Luke back, but that’s not necessary. I think Denise has her point too. I shouldn’t me


    you for what happened to Luke. There are people who miss you too. I shouldn’t destroy everything


    about you just because I miss Luke.”


    Steven was taken aback by her confession. He looked at Gwen with eyes widened as he found it hard


    to believe what he heard.


    After spending a few days with Gwen, he thought he finally understood Gwen’s personality–a woman


    who would do anything for the man she loved.

    He admired her bravery in pursuing her love. He also envied Luke because he had a woman who loved


    him so deeply.


    It was at this moment, however, that he realized he did not understand Gwen as much as he thought


    he did upon hearing her confession.


    Maybe he underestimated her instead.


    He thought Luke was all she cared about, not knowing Gwen would think like this and feel sorry for him


    because he had taken Luke’s body after hearing what Denise said.


    With those thoughts in mind, he said, “Actually…I’m fine.”


    He knew he should have died five years ago. It was more than enough for him after being in a


    vegetative state for five years and waking up in Luke’s body five yearster. As a person who should


    have passed away, he should never interfere with, or be in the way of, other people’s rtionships.


    Gwen paused as she looked into Steven’s sincere eyes. She did not want to continue with this topic.


    “So what should we do now? Do you have any ideas on how to rescue Denise?”
