Chapter 2708 Mrs. Miller sighed helplessly upon seeing how insistent Kate was in her decision.
She extended her hand out to touch her daughter‘s head. “Kate, how many times do I have to tell you that there are certain things you can‘t force? It‘s Steven‘s destiny if he can‘t wake up, and it‘s also destiny if you can‘t be with Steven or Luke. Why can‘t you just listen to me, let go of all those obsessions, and look for another person to marry?”
Kate swiftly avoided Mrs. Miller‘s hand. “Stop trying to talk me out of it, Mom. If I‘d listened to you, I would‘ve married someone else when Steven was in his coma five years ago. I’ve been persevering until now, and you are asking me to give up and marry someone else? Do you think that‘s possible?”
Mrs. Miller sighed in desperation. She looked at Kate deeply and exasperatedly riled on, “Kate, don‘t forget that Steven is using Luke‘s body, and that man used to be a notorious gang leader. What if one day he remembers his past? Do you think he‘ll forgive you or the Miller family at that?”
“He‘ll never remember his past!” Kate gritted her teeth while clenching her hands into fists. She looked in the direction where the ambulance left with red eyes. “My plan is perfect! Luke will never remember his past; never!”
She then opened the door and stepped out of the car.
Mrs. Miller quickly rolled down the window and yelled out at Kate, “Kate, where are you
going?!”
“To the hospital!”
Her heart was throbbing with pain. She bit her lip and looked at the doctor cautiously. “What
injury...are you talking about? Where is the injury?” “On his waist.” The doctor raised her brow and looked at Gwen. “You‘re his girlfriend. How can you not know there‘s an injury on his waist?” Gwen bit her lip and said nothing.
The doctor made no further comments, however, assuming that she and Steven had a complicated relationship. Instead, she pointed at her own body to show the exact location of the injury on Luke‘s body. “It‘s a wound caused by some sort of sharp knife. It looked like an old wound that was near recovery, but I don‘t know why it seems like someone stabbed the same spot again. The wound is fresh, and I think it happened within a day. He only sanitized it and that‘s all. There‘s no sign of sutures.
“It‘s not very serious, but the aftereffect could be severe if it isn‘t treated with care since it was an old wound.” She then passed a consent letter to Gwen. “Sign this, and we‘ll attend to his wound.”
