Chapter 2747 Steven‘s expression changed when he heard Gwen‘s words. After a few seconds, he furrowed his
brow and looked at Gwen. “I know my family and the Miller family have done you wrong. We can compensate
you...”
“Compensate?” Gwen looked up and stared at Steven with a cold, hateful gaze. “What compensation can you
possibly give me? Can you return Luke to me? Can you do that?”
Steven took a step back when he saw the hatred in Gwen‘s eyes, and his heart throbbed painfully. He knew she was
devastated and that she had been trying hard to suppress her emotions vehemently. However, her suppression and
anger were what made him heartbroken. A woman her age should not have to live the life she did...
“Answer me!” Gwen was about to lose her emotion when Steven did not reply. Her voice went off–pitch. “Tell me!
How are you going to return a normal, healthy Luke to me?”
She missed him so much. It only worsened as she stared at this man who was a spitting image of Luke yet
portrayed a look and expression that was unfamiliar to her. Every time she saw him, she thought about how cynical
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLuke used to be.
Steven furrowed his brow when he saw Gwen losing control. “Calm down, Gwen. Even without me, Luke isn‘t going
to come back.”
Even as Gwen glared at him furiously, he continued,” When Luke was alive, the one thing he wanted to do was to let
you live on with his heart. Although my family and the Miller family did many things that we shouldn‘t do in the
back... Without them meddling in the matter, is Luke going to be alive now?”
Even if the event developed into another scenario, the ending would still be the same, no? Luke died, and Gwen
lived. The only problem was that there was him. Undoubtedly, his family and the Miller family were guilty as
charged. If Gwen wanted to sue them and expose them to the whole world...Steven could not bear to think of the
consequences.
The Hughes family and the Miller family were both reputable families in Saigen City. If this got out, not only would
their reputation be damaged, but their property values would go downhill to the extent that the Hughes family and
family would never be able to walk with their head held high.
Whereas for him, he would receive attention and
comment everywhere he went. He was never involved in the whole process, but it was still related to him. The
Miller family and his family did everything because of
him. Just because of that, he could not possibly ignore both families.
Nonetheless, he understood how pained Gwen was.
As the two emotions collided, Steven was lost. He did not know what was the right thing to do. If he helped Gwen
and made the Miller family and his family the target of criticism, he would become an ungrateful person too.
However, if he helped his family and the Miller family... He knew better than anyone that his family and the Miller
family were the guilty people.
Gwen bit her lip as she finally lost control of herself. Tears started falling down from the corner of her eyes. She bit
her lip vehemently as she looked at Steven. Her voice was trembling. “You‘re right. Even if your family and the
Miller family didn‘t do any of this, Luke won‘t still be alive. He‘d still die, and it‘s all for me. Why did he have to meet
me?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuke was a man of compassion. He could have lived a great life as the leader of a gang that everyone envied and
feared. Regardless of that, he volunteered to give up his life for her, a worthless woman.
Everything he did for her was just a lie. He thought he was saving her and dying for her. In fact, the person he
saved was his brother from the family who abandoned him when he was just a child!
Gwen gritted her teeth and looked at Steven. His
appearance was still Luke‘s appearance, but his eyes were no longer sharp and arrogant like his.
In the past, she would always find the love he had especially for her through his eyes. Luke would extend his hand
out and stroke her head gently. With his softest voice, he would say, “Don‘t cry. I really don‘t know what to do with
you.”
He would embrace her dearly.
Even when Steven was so close, he could not hug or kiss him. Furthermore, he would never look at her with the
same look ever again.
Tears rolled down her face. The hatred in Gwen‘s eyes dispersed as finally, it turned into self–blaming and
despairing. “You‘re right... Even without you, Luke will still die.”
