Chapter 2724 Yannie was at the hospital with Luna and Rachel in the midst of comforting Gwen when she received Thomas‘ call.
From the moment she returned to the hotel, Gwen had been sitting in silence in front of the window, staring out at the view.
No matter what Luna and Rachel did, Gwen would stare out the window blankly as though she could not hear a single word they said until Yannie arrived. Yannie held her hand and patiently described everything that had happened–to Steven to her. This was when the familiar gleam in Gwen‘s eyes began to return.
She lifted her head to stare at Yannie in puzzlement. “Are you saying that Steven and Luke were possibly brothers or even twins?”
Yannie nodded. “I overheard Thomas‘ spy saying this. Apparently, the Hughes family had been blessed with a set of twin boys, but for some reason, the boys had been ill since birth, and one of them even almost died.
“Therefore, they sought out the help of a fortune teller who foretold that...”
Yannie paused for a moment before continuing, “He said that one of the children would curse the entire family, and this was why his brother was so ill. “Unfortunately, they were superstitious people and thus abandoned the ‘cursed‘ child.” Gwen bit her lip and could not help thinking about Luke.
As the person closest to him, Gwen knew that Luke despised talking about his childhood and family. After all, he had no family, and his upbringing had been a tragic one.
He was adopted and abandoned by families again and again, which was the reason he ended up joining a gang during his teenage years.
