Chapter 2808 As Gwen and Steven were running out of choices, Gwen took a deep breath and dashed to where
Steven was. Before she could reach him, he had thrown a few more punches.
This time, his punches hit home as they slammed into the bulkier guard‘s face. As the thinner guard returned,
Steven turned around and fought with the thinner guard.
The scene shook Gwen to the core. Her eyes widened as she stopped running, knowing not to intervene. At that
moment, she felt like she was seeing Luke fighting the guards instead of Steven.
‘Yes, he is Luke!‘ She strongly believed the man fighting in front of her was Luke. Only Luke was capable of fighting
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtso fiercely, on point, and in a relaxed manner.
With the two guards taken down, Steven turned back and smiled at Gwen. “Done.”
Gwen stood still as she gripped her fists tightly. It felt as though something was lodged in her heart. She could only
bite her lip and stare at the man in front of her silently.
While she tried to find words to say, no words came out of her mouth.
“What‘s wrong?” Steven furrowed his brow at how Gwen was rooted where she stood, staring at him so peculiarly.
He walked over and extended his hand out to pinch her nose. “What are you daydreaming about? Shouldn‘t we go
into the room to save Mr. Zink?” The familiar movement and gentle voice touched Gwen‘s heart. In the next
second, she opened her arms and wrapped them around Steven.
“I knew it was you! You came back, didn‘t you?” The sudden hug from Gwen caught Steven off guard. He paused
and took a deep breath. He responded by hugging her back. “You can pretend that I‘m him.” 1 At that moment,
Gwen was taken aback, and her body turned stiff. “Sorry.” After a while, she let him go and apologized. She turned
around and walked toward where Mr. Zink was.
Looking at how disappointed she was, Steven‘s happiness from taking down the guards vanished. He closed his
eyes and sighed before following after Gwen.
No matter how hard he tried, he was not Luke. He could never make her happy, could he?
Both of them opened the door where Mr. Zink was. The man in question was squatting in the corner, shivering.
“What...do you two want?” He saw how Steven took down the two guards, and instead of being happy in knowing
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsomeone was there to rescue him, he was terrified. He did not know why Steven would come to his rescue or what
he wanted to do with him. He was afraid to fall into a deeper trap like how he got captured by Tina and Dan, the
demonic mother–and–son duo.
“Joshua Lynch asked us to come to save you.”
Steven seemed to expect such a reaction from Mr. Zink. He sighed and grabbed his hand lightly to give him some
comfort. “Do you know Senior Howard is dead?”
Mr. Zink cocked up his head and looked at Steven in sheer shock. “He‘s... really dead?”
When he last saw Senior Howard yesterday, he looked fine and healthy. Although he was injured by Thomas, it was
not fatal and was in no immediate danger. “What do you mean, really dead?” Gwen sensitively noticed the
abnormality with Mr. Zink‘s question. “Did you know he was going to die?”
