Chapter 2836
At this moment, Steven was having dinner with Gwen. After a busy day, they finally had the time to rest and had dinner after they sent Mr. Zink back to his home.
It was Steven who invited Gwen to have dinner with him. For some reason, he felt something toward her and wanted to be with her, wanting to get to know her more. Therefore, he suggested having dinner just as Gwen prepared to go back to the hotel.
Gwen knew what Steven was up to. At first, she wanted to reject him, but when she saw Steven’s face and the sincerity in his eyes, her heart went soft and thus accepted the dinner invitation. She told herself this was the last time she allowed herself to do this.
After tonight, she would sue Steven’s family and Kate’s family with help from Joshua and Thomas. She had passed all of the evidence she got from Denise to Joshua.
Joshua also got some professional people to take a look to make sure the evidence was sufficient to make the Hughes family and the Miller family pay the price.
After knowing that, she felt more relieved. If everything went as planned, Luke’s matter would be settled before she knew it.
Once everything was settled, she would go back to Merchant City with Luna and Joshua… After that, she would keep the promise she made to Denise to never intercede in Steven’s life and meet with him.
This night was probably the last night in her life to be with this man who possessed Luke’s body and face.
Since both of them were distracted by the thoughts in their minds, they ate very slowly, and the ambiance was pretty depressing. When Steven’s phone rang, both of them secretly felt relieved to
have something to break the awkward moment.
“Hello?” Steven looked at the unknown number on his phone and furrowed his brow, asking, “Who is it?”
“Steven! Mr. Hughes! Please save Denise!”
Steven’s face paled immediately. He furrowed his brow, and his voice became serious. Who are you? ‘Save Denise‘? What happened to her?”
From Steven’s worried voice, Eva finally felt her heart settling down.
She knew she found the right person. Denise was right! Even if the Hughes family disowned her, even if Denise’s parents no longer treated her as their daughter, Steven still cared about her. Steven truly did think of Denise as his sister!

Eva could no longer hold her tears in. She squatted as her tears kept falling down. “Please,” she pleaded, “you have to save Denise. She’s in trouble…”
“Calm down and speak slowly,” said Steven, with his brow still furrowed when he heard the
pitiful whimpers. He could tell the other side was feeling anxious and panicked.
‘This does not sound like a prank call,‘ he thought.
“What happened to Denise? Calm yourself. If you don’t tell me in detail, I don’t know how to go save her,” Steven said.
Eva sniffled and breathed in deeply when she heard Steven’s gentle voice.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“Hello, Mr. Hughes… My name is Eva. Denise helped me before. I was called over by Denise to go take care of Thomas‘ daughter, Riley, tonight. She said she did things that she shouldn’t have done, so she rescued the child to make things right… But when Thomas arrived, he never thought about forgiving Denise.”
