"I'm one-hundred-percent sure your knife is a fake one." Denise narrowed her eyes as she looked at Gwen. Then, she looked at Luna, who was approaching them from behind, and smiled sarcastically. "I'm only reminding you now because you are Mrs. Lynch's friend. If you can be friends with someone like her, don't bring a fake knife around to embarrass yourself."Finally, she did not forget to look at Yannie. "I'm going to let you go today, but remember this: don't ever show up at my face anymore!"After that, she left with her entourage.Yannie stood still as she watched Denise leave, balling her fists tightly as she did.Gwen rolled her eyes coldly and put away the army knife. She placed her hand on Yannie's shoulder. "How did you come across and provoke this type of people?"Yannie pursed her lip. "I…""What happened?" Luna stood beside Gwen and Yannie as she did not know what just happened. "Who were those people? Why did you take out your knife?""Nothing." Gwen sneered and glan
Gwen looked at them, slumped as she shook her head helplessly."I'm going to the washroom."Coming out of the room, Gwen did not actually head to the washroom straight away. Instead, she went to the balcony at the end of the corridor upstairs. As she stood and felt the cold breeze, she took a few photos with her phone and made a social media post.[I don't miss you that much anymore today. Is this a good sign?]At the same time, in another private room in the restaurant…The man was eating with Kate Miller and a few other friends when his phone suddenly rang.He chatted with the person next to him while casually picking up the phone to have a look. It was a notification on his social media.It was the woman he followed the night before, and she had posted a few photos and a corny caption.He ate and chatted while tapping into the woman's photos.Coincidentally, he saw the words [Black Star] written on the railings behind the balcony.He narrowed his eyes and looked down at th
Gwen was a little surprised, too.She has previously seen Kate on the news. She knew that Kate was in this city, but she did not expect that Saigen City would be this small. She was there only for the second day, yet she somehow managed to stumble into Kate.She smiled and looked at Kate. "That's me, alright.""You…" Kate's eyes widened in shock. "What are you doing here?"Was she…Did Gwen overhear some news and she…"I'm here on vacation." Although Gwen did not like Kate and was even apprehensive of her, she still offered her a genial smile. "Thomas brought Yannie to Saigen City to settle down. Luna and I are here on vacation, so this is our first stop while also visiting Yannie as well."Then, she sized up Kate. "You're much prettier than before."Kate previously had been dressing up as a guy, with short blonde hair, ear studs, nose piercings, and her go-to black outfit. She looked handsome and cool.However, at that moment, she was in the same dress model and shawl that Gw
While Steven was cleaning up the wine stains in the washroom, he heard Kate talking to another woman.The woman's voice was gentle, and it did not sound like any of Kate's friends. Also, from their conversation, they clearly have not seen each other in a long time."She's not really a friend."Kate held onto Steven's arm tightly. "Previously, when I was helping you look for an organ donor, I got to know her. She has always been suspicious of me. She thought that I'd snatched her boyfriend, so we just know each other, but we can't be considered friends."Steven furrowed his brow upon hearing that. "She was suspicious of you stealing her boyfriend?""Mhm." Kate sniffled. She said calmly, "Maybe because she's that type of person instead—someone who likes to steal other people's boyfriends—so she suspects that I'm not a good person. Later, when I found you a donor, I left in the middle of the night. I bumped into her here today."Then, she even looked up at him nervously. "If we come
Initially, Gwen was not interested in Kate's boyfriend. Although his aura and looks were like Luke's, that was all they had in common.He was not Luke. She did not need to, nor did she want to, understand.However, at the thought of how that woman at the ski area that day confidently said that her knife was a fake and her brother had the real one, Gwen was still furious.Luke was already dead, yet his item was slandered by strangers even after his passing.At that thought, Gwen furrowed her brow and suddenly stood up, which startled Luna."What's wrong?""I want to look for Kate's boyfriend."She wanted to see what the real knife looked like as described by that ignorant woman!"Forget about it, Gwen." Yannie knew what Gwen wanted to do. She immediately reached her hand out and grabbed her wrist, stopping her. "It's only a knife. Don't bother with Denise Hughes. Luna and I know that you're looking for Kate's boyfriend just to see his knife, but…"Yannie paused for a while, her
"Let her cry."Upon saying that, the waiter came in and brought the restaurant's most expensive wine."Gwen." Luna picked up the bottle of wine and poured Gwen a glass. "You must know that you've just finished the surgery. Your body won't be able to take it, but before we left Merchant City, I asked the doctor if you're able to have wine when you're in a bad mood. The doctor said that once is alright. "So, I'm only going to allow you to drink once. After tonight, you can no longer drink. You have to be responsible for your body, as well as…for the person that donated the heart to you."Gwen clutched her face and nodded.Then, she let go of her tear-soaked hands, picked up the glass that Luna poured for her, and downed it.'I'd choose to go with you if I could, Luke. I don't want to continue this torture here on earth alone.'"Luna, does Gwen…"Looking at Gwen drunk, Yannie bit her lip. She lowered her tone. "Does she…really like Mr. Jones that much?"Luna paused for a while b
At that moment, Gwen could not believe her eyes. She felt her blood rushing to her head.Was she…hallucinating? How could this be?She bit her lip harshly and subconsciously rubbed her eyes.She was not hallucinating! The man in front of her was Luke!"Miss, are you alright?" Steven Hughes slowly walked toward her and looked at this woman shorter than him by a head.He could recognize that she was the woman that he followed on social media. How small the world was.He had only noticed her on social media two days ago, yet he almost crashed into her on the streets that morning.It was still alright before the man spoke. The moment he spoke, Gwen's tears fell instantly.That voice… It was clearly Luke's voice!How could someone's look, aura, and voice seem so much like Luke's?It was Luke… It had to be!Excitement and grief flooded her at the same time. She could no longer hold back her tears.She looked up at the man in front of her fixedly with teary eyes."You're not dead
This was why this woman got so agitated when she saw him and immediately rushed over to hug him in tears.However, he was not Luke Jones. He could not give her the response that she wanted, nor the hope that she hoped for.Thus, he took a deep breath and pushed her away."Miss." He furrowed his brow and gazed at the sobbing woman in front of him, her face red. "You got the wrong person. I don't know you, and I'm not Luke Jones."Then, under Gwen's dazed gaze, he turned around and headed toward the direction of his car.He nearly missed her and his car nearly slammed straight into her due to him not being aware, which was why he came out of the car to check on her due to worry.However, it appeared that this woman was completely unharmed, and he did not need to waste his time with her. He pitied her for not having a boyfriend, but this was not a reason for her mistaking a stranger as her boyfriend, punching him and crying at the same time.It was not because her punches were pain
