Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy novel Chapter 2844

Chapter 2844

Thomas scoffed when he heard this. “I thought that as a gang leader, you’d be cutthroat and merciless, but I’m surprised that you’d say something like this.”

He gave a stretch and added, “I never said I wouldn’t show Denise mercy; she was the one who had agreed to my task on her own terms.

“Before you appeared, I had been talking to Joshua about what to do with Denise. Since she appeared genuine, I wouldn’t be too harsh on her even if she failed to meet my task.

“Without the Hughes family protecting her, she’ll be all alone, and even if she did cross me in the past, she wouldn’t be much of a threat to Yannie and me in the future. Besides, she seemed to be really remorseful of her mistake, so I hadn’t meant to challenge her even further, but…”

He lifted his head to glance at the man standing before him. “I never thought Steven would be so angry over this that his split personality would be triggered, but I guess it’s not exactly a bad thing.”

He glanced at Gwen as he said this. “Isn’t this what you wanted all along? Now that Steven has become Luke again, you should be happier than this.”

Gwen furrowed her brow and squeezed Luke’s hand upon hearing this.

“Even though she had indeed hoped for me to return at the beginning, things have changed now,” Luke interrupted Thomas in a stern voice. “She’s learned to respect Steven and his right to live.

“I’ve been watching everything through Steven’s eyes all this while, and I saw Gwen trying to stop Steven from eating the medicine that would restore all my memories.

She would never forget him, not in a million years, nor could she ever bring herself to fall for another man. However, she knew that it was time for her to leave Steven alone.

The people at fault here were the Hughes and the Miller family, not Steven. He had the right to live the rest of his life in peace.

At this thought, she sighed and asked, “Luke, will we ever see each other again?”

Luke’s arm stiffened around her waist. “I…I hope that won’t be the case. I’m worried that Steven’s body won’t be able to handle this well. After all…”

He took a deep breath. “He’s my twin brother, after all. Even though I had never been blessed with the love of a familial bond in my life, I’m still grateful to have such a kind and considerate man as my brother.”
