“Special reaction?” Steven frowned and recalled the business meeting he had with Joshua. He then
stared at Kate.
“Nothing special, other than what you told me that he said I look like an old friend of his.”
Steven was still baffled by this when he recalled the moment.
“Luckily, you told me Joshua Lynch likes to say that to pull the string, or I might‘ve believed him when
he said that!” Kate narrowed her eyes.
“So Joshua Lynch himself said you look like his old friend?”
“Yes.” Steven paused while feeling lucky.
“But, I didn‘t fall for it. I told him that I don‘t like to pull any strings when I‘m talking about business.”
Kate was surprised, and her eyes could not hide how happy she was.
“What then?”
“Well, he never talked about his friend anymore, and we started with the negotiation.” Later, he could
not help but sighed.
“I know people tend to butter up to people while doing business, but I never expect Joshua Lynch to do
something like this when he is already such a successful businessman.”
Kate clenched her hand into a fist and used it to cover her mouth as she coughed.
“It‘s… normal, I guess. No one would think they have enough money.” Steven paused and nodded as
he finally understood.
“You‘re right.”
Kate frowned unnoticeably when she saw how naive and pure Steven looked. He had been lying on the
bed for more than five years after he became a vegetative person. Due to that, there was a big
difference between his appearance and his mind. He looked like a mature man with a mature voice, but
the way he spoke sounded like a teenager.
She sighed as she thought about it, finding herself oddly missing Luke. Although Luke had always
treated her coldly, he was mature and proud.
What a shame he could never return.
The front desk attendant placed the pendant on Luna‘s hand and asked, “Ms. Luna, is this the one?”
“Yes! This is the one!”
Gwen, who had given up hope, erratically dashed over when she saw the pendant. She grabbed the
pendant and held it dearly in her hand. She had lost hope of getting the pendant back, yet they found it!
Did that mean…her destiny with Luke had not reached its end?
“Ms. Larson…” The front desk attendant did not know Gwen would dash over and was shocked by it.
After a while, she smiled at Gwen.
“I‘m happy it‘s your lost pendant.”
After that, she smiled and greeted Luna before heading back to the front desk.
“Wait.” As the front desk attendant took a few steps, Gwen furrowed her brow. “Where did you find
this?”
‘Something is missing on the pendant.’ Gwen thought.
The front desk attendant stopped and turned to face Gwen, who was at the back, while keeping a smile
on her face. “Is there anything else I can help you with, Ms. Larson?”
Gwen pointed at the empty space on the pendant.
“There should be a small metal plate here with the words, ‘Joined As One Heart,‘ but it‘s gone.”
The front desk attendant was stunned.
“But I didn‘t see this metal plate when I found the pendant.”
