Steven unconsciously took a step back unconsciously as he hoarsely reasoned, “I didn‘t
ask you to give it back to me!
He knew Gwen‘s current heart was his, but it never unsettled him from the start. On the contrary, he felt
guilty because he had stolen Luke‘s body, and he would feel better if Gwen treated the heart as
compensation. He never thought…Gwen would want to return his heart instead.
“But I want to.” Gwen curled her lips into a smile. “It disgusts me so badly every time I think the heart
beating in my chest was yours.”
Yes, she was disgusted. If it was not because of this heart, Luke‘s body would never be stolen. She did
not have to see the person she was most familiar with turn into this person. If it was not for her, Luke
would still be alive. Thus, she felt disgusted with this current heart and herself.
After she had sought revenge for Luke, she would give the heart back to Steven once and for all.
She did not want to owe him anything. She would remove the heart away and reunite with Luke.
Steven took a step back as he felt his heart throbbing in pain and his mind in disarray.
‘She said…she wants to give the heart back to me. Does it disgust her so greatly to know that my heart
is in her body? Does she hate me so much? Even when my heart is helping to keep her alive…she‘s
still so disconcerted that she wants to give back the heart to me after taking revenge for Luke.!
“What if…” Steven said with a deep voice. “What if I want to return this body to Luke? What should I
do?”
The sadness and anger hit Gwen again. ‘What did he say? He wants to return the body to Luke? How
is he going to do that? Everything about Luke–his past, his logic, and his thoughts, was dumped like
they were rubbish! Can anyone find it? It‘s just impossible!‘
As she endured the pain in her chest, she gritted her teeth and gave Steven a deadly stare. “You can‘t
find it, you can‘t find it!
“Steven, you and your family have killed Luke, and he‘s never coming back! You know it better than
anyone else! I said I want to give your heart back to you, yet you said you want to bring Luke back…
“Hear me clearly. Even if you die, Luke is never going to come back. You‘re going to be in debt to Luke
for the rest of your life!”
Tears streamed down her face as she roared her frustrations.
As the ambiance between Steven and Gwen was at a standstill again, Luna sighed. She quickly stood
between them and kept them apart from each other to calm down.
Finally, she looked at Steven helplessly. “You see it too. Every time you mention Luke, Gwen will lose
control of her emotions, and you know very well why. You‘re using Luke‘s body, but you keep on
mentioning him in front of her…
“Even if you really hate Gwen that much, you don‘t have to attack her at her weakest so brazenly.”
Luna took a deep breath. “Mr. Hughes, if you‘re not willing to help Gwen sue your family and the Miller
family, it‘s alright. Don‘t think about bringing Denise back today. We‘ll settle with her on our own terms.”
Right after that, she turned to hold Gwen and brought her to sit on the sofa. Then, she took out her
phone and dialed a number. “Come in. Please bring Mr. Hughes back now.”
