Chapter 2858
If Luke was never abandoned by the Hughes family from birth, and if it were not for his terrible upbringing, Gwen believed Luke would have turned out to be a gentle person like Steven too. They were brothers by blood, after all. They were separated from the same fertilized egg, grew up in their mother’s womb, and came to see the world together.

Denise nodded and waved at Gwen as a farewell before leaving with Sean.

Last night, Luke had told her to keep the dissociative identity disorder a secret from Luke and wanted Steven to give up on getting him back. He wanted Steven to live on with his life happily.
Since Gwen was not sure if she could persuade Steven, she pretended to not understand what Steven

“Don’t lie to me.”
