Kurt was even more baffled at that moment. His boss was not dead, but he even gave himself a new name!He went from Luke Jones to Stefan Joneson?"Let's go. I'll take you to the doctor." Stefan furrowed his eyebrows, walked over, and helped Kurt stand up. "What happened to your arm?"Kurt paused for a while before saying honestly, "I broke it in an accident on delivery a few days ago."As Stefan helped him up, he sighed and added, "Max Church sent those men to check on me to see if I've been in contact with Gwen, but when they saw my broken arm, they started extorting me for money and bullying me."Kurt smiled bitterly at Stefan. "Have I embarrassed you?"Things were different when he was with Luke as it was him doing the beating; never was there a moment when Kurt was beaten. However, at that moment…Kurt felt terrible letting his former boss see him beaten up so badly."It's not embarrassing at all." Stefan was silent for a long time before sighing deeply. "It's my fault. All

Gwen's entire body stiffened when she saw Stefan's reaction. She furrowed her eyebrows and immediately realized what she had done. "Luke is…someone that I used to know.""That's the name of my old boss," Kurt said as he stepped into the house. "He passed away some time ago."Since he had promised Stefan that he would go along with his act and pretend to be acquaintances, that was what he had to do.He strode over to Gwen and reached out to shake her hand. "Long time no see, Ms. Larson."Gwen widened her eyes in shock when she saw who it was. A split second later, her gaze changed to one of incredulity. "Are you…Kurt?""Yes, that's me." Kurt chuckled. "I thought you had forgotten me.""Why would I?" Gwen shook her head, and her gaze fell on Kurt's broken arm. "I just never thought that…"Kurt was one of the bravest and most ruthless of all of Luke's men. Out of all of them, he had been selected to become Luke's personal bodyguard and had assumed this role for many years. Thus, it

[I…didn't.] Gwen sighed when she saw Sean's text. [Nothing. Just asking.][Don't you worry.] Sean sent a reassuring sticker alongside his reply. [I know how much Luke and Steven meant to you, so you'll be the first to know if I hear anything. Don't be too sad, okay? Since Steven has chosen to start his new life afresh, I'm sure he must've landed on his feet, and we should be happy for him.][You should move forward and stop getting caught up in the past. Remember, you have your own life to live.][You're right.] Gwen sighed. [I shouldn't be caught up in the past anymore, and it's about time I live my own life. Thanks for trying to cheer me up. How's Denise doing?][Not too well, but the doctor says she's improving, and I'm sure she'll be up and at it in no time.]After a brief chat with Sean, Gwen decided to flip through all the contacts of her old friends and family in Sea City, including the employees that had worked for Larson Group under her and her father, Andy.She could no

The next morning, Gwen woke up at the crack of dawn. She called Luna on the phone while she was washing up, and told Luna about her request."No problem!" Luna was smiling as she said this. "You say that that bodyguard of yours needs a mask, huh? Well, what kind is he looking for? One that's made to imitate human skin? I don't think that's a good idea. It'll come off easily if someone were to punch him, and I think a better option will be something made of metal, like those masks you wear to a costume party. We can easily make it look more lifelike!"That way, even if he wears the mask, you'll still be able to see the angles of his jaw and his other features…" Luna explained as she busied herself in the kitchen. "I think you'll be captivated by him sooner or later."Gwen almost choked on her mouthwash when she heard this. She let out a few coughs, then finally got herself together. "Why are you becoming more mischievous as time passes? I'm getting him a mask so that he can go underc

"Do you want the truth?" Gwen asked faintly with a frown and looked at Kurt.After a pause, Kurt nodded. "Of course."Gwen said seriously, "I don't want him back. Although you might find it unbelievable, I really don't want him to come back to me."If Luke reappeared, that meant Steven had to leave. The last time Luke came back, he specifically stated as Steven's brother, he hoped Steven could continue to live a happy life in his body. Therefore, she believed that was always Luke's wish.It was definitely not Luke's wish if he came back one day. It was more like Steven did not want to exist anymore.Thus…Gwen would rather maintain this current situation where Luke and Steven coexisted in the same body and lived in a place where no one knew them.Maybe they would find a girl who could accept them and live happily together…She chose to give them her blessing and provided them the space they deserved. This was the last gift she could give to them.The answer left Kurt stunned a
