"Lulu, is there...any news?"
Before undergoing her surgery, Gwen passed her phone to Luna, asking her to keep an eye on it.She
was worried that she would not be able to answer Luke's call, fearing that he would be worried about
her.
Looking at Gwen's hopeful gaze, Luna could not help but look away, not daring to look her in the eye.
''No.Luke...is probably busy."
He did not call nor send a message.
Little did Luna know…..Luke was already buried, alone in a grave.She thought that Luke had simply
gone to Sea City to deal with his business and wanted to give Gwen a chance to leave, so he did not
contact her.She did not want to disappoint Gwen, so she could not help but add, "He should contact
you after he finishes his business."
"Hopefully."
Gwen shut her eyes in despair, letting the wheel push her back to her ward as she felt her heart turning
cold.
Somehow, she could feel that Luke might never return.He might never look for her again.To him,
maybe she was not important.
Perhaps she had been overthinking after all.
Seeing how sad Gwen looked, Luna sniffled, turned, and leaned in Joshua's arms.She bitterly spoke,
"Say, do you think Luke will still return to see her?"
She felt that even if Luke did not want Gwen to see him anymore, he would surely secretly return to
see her because of how much he cared about her, right? Alas, he did not.
The following month, Luke never returned nor appeared once.
Gwen's body got better day by day, but the despair in her eyes only grew.
Despite trying to comfort Gwen, Luna, too, started to believe that Luke did not like Gwen as much as
he said he did.
If he truly liked her, why did he not return once or even just give Joshua or Jim a call to ask about her?
Bonnie and she had secretly gone through Joshua's and Jim's phones, but they did not find any
messages from Luke.
Luna even got Nigel to go and check to see if Joshua and Jim had deleted any records of contact with
Luke, but there were none.
Nigel had checked many times.
The results he got were that Luke had never contacted Joshua or Jim.
Due to helplessness, Luna could only look for her old schoolmate in Sea City to ask about the Sea City
gang.Her schoolmate told her that Luke was doing well in Sea City.
The gang was flourishing, even.
Although he never saw Luke in person, Luna's classmate heard that ever since Luke returned to Sea
City, because he was ruling over the city, most of the gangs in Sea City had submitted to him.
Hearing that, Luna was even more furious.Luke was practically thriving in Sea City.Why did he not
contact any of them here in Merchant City?
“Luna?" Bonnie's voice pulled her back to reality.
"What's wrong?”
"We're here."
Bonnie looked at her helplessly pointed out the window.
Only then Luna quickly recalled that she was accompanying Bonnie to visit Sean that day.
Thus, she immediately got out of the car and helped Bonnie slowly out of the car.
"I'm not that frail, you know? I can walk on my own already." Bonnie let go of her hand and slowly
headed to Sean's ward.
"Say, why do you think Luke hasn't appeared up till now?"
Hearing Bonnie mention Luke, Luna was furious.
"I'm stumped, too.He's probably dead!"
Upon her words, a cup dropped on the floor.
At that moment, Sean was standing by the door, looking at Luna and Bonnie in shock.
"Is Luke really dead already?"”
