Joshua raised his head to look at Gwen with a smile on his face. “Actually, I do have something for you to do. But...I think you won't want to do it, so forget about it. Just sit here for a while. When Luna and I finish organizing everything, we'll tell you the whole conspiracy that the Hughes family and the Miller family have done.”
Gwen frowned at Joshua's words. “What is it that you want me to do?”
She would willingly do anything, even if it meant exhausting herself. As Luke’s beloved woman, she wanted to help out and make use of herself.
Joshua furrowed his brow and glanced at Luna, who frowned. “Forget about it. I don’t think she wants to do it.”
He shrugged and looked at Gwen smilingly. “See? She's the one who asked me to keep my mouth shut.” The fact that the couple acted like they were playing charades made Gwen feel more curious. She frowned and walked to Luna, grabbed Luna’s arm, and begged to know what they were talking about. “Come on, you'll have to tell me first before thinking that I won't want to do it. All these things happened because of me. I can’t just sit by the side and see you guys work your arse off while I do nothing.”
Luna smiled. She used her hand to pinch Gwen's nose as her expression faltered into helplessness. “I think you don’t feel easy, especially when we're busy while you do nothing. You could even be more stressed and uneasy than us.”
That was true.
Gwen sighed and coquettishly grabbed Luna’s arm. “Since you can understand my feelings, why won't you tell me? What if I can do the things you want me to do?”
Luna, unable to resist Gwen's inquisitive nature, looked at Joshua and said, “You tell her.”
Joshua did not look up and was still organizing the documents. With a hushed tone and what sounded like he was smiling, he said, “Gwen. Do you really want to know?”
Gwen nodded seriously.
“Well, we were going to ask you to...” Joshua stopped what he was doing. “Go to Steven’s house with him when you come back.
“You need to pretend to be Steven’s girlfriend to create a distraction so Steven's parents will be busy and distracted so they won't notice Denise stealing these documents. And they won’t have the time to care about other things because they'll concentrate on you and Steven. All we have to do is refrain the Miller family from getting further information about our progress to stop them from leaving the city and force them to attend the court case in a few days.”
After that, he sighed. “At first, we thought it was the best option. You could halt the Hughes family and we could use Thomas to halt the Mille family. Everything will be fine then.
“But, since you had spoken out and decided you don’t want to have anything with Steven, then you shouldn't go look for him anymore. Let’s just forget about having you pretend to be together with Steven. I'll ask Thomas to add more personnel to control the Miller family.”
Gwen bit her lip quietly. She thought Steven and Luke could have closure as soon as possible if she explained everything to Steven. It just did not occur to her that... Joshua and Luna had such a plan in
place. If she had communicated with them before she told Steven all those things, the plan could have proceeded, but given her circumstances, she felt stuck. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
She could not help Luna and Joshua, and she could not pretend to go look for Steven and say she wanted to be with him.
She sighed deeply.
Just as she was about to say something, her phone rang.
Well, she must have spoken of the devil, because it was Steven.
