Will you marry me, My Ex-Wife (Luna and Joshua)

Chapter 2804

Immediately, Gwen’s expression faltered into solemness.

She never thought Steven would ask her such a question. Nonetheless…she did have such a moment

of weakness.

With her eyes closed, she recalled the scene that happened more than a year ago in the hospital in

Sea City. At that time, Hailey’s father had sent someone to rape her, and Ben chose to divorce her the

moment he found out. She was crushed by the thought that she was corrupted and that no man in this

world wanted her anymore.

Amid her despair, she found out she was pregnant with the devil’s child. She lived in pain every day,

and all she wanted was to end her life, only intercepted by Luke every time.

Back then, she had just known Luke and never knew he would become such an important person to

her in the future. During that period, she attempted to kill herself numerous times because she did not

think she was worthy to be alive.

Every time she climbed up the window, Luke would reach her side immediately to trick her into coming

back down with all kinds of methods. He was not about to let Gwen end her own life.

Having those thoughts in her mind, tears started falling down her face. It felt like Luke was already

quite demanding with her when he was being nice to her in the first place. When they just knew each

other, Luke had to put her under house arrest to stop her from ending her own life.

Before they parted ways, Luke was the same as he always was. He kept her illness a secret from her

and was afraid her condition would get worse. He was so nice to her, but she always thought he was

forcing himself onto her.

In fact, when did Luke truly harm her? If she could understand that earlier on, then they might not have

to be separated by death. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Yes. It was all her fault. If she had realized this sooner, the person who was supposed to be dead was

her and not Luke. If there was a chance to do it all over again, she would rather be the one who died

and not have things turn out the way it was…

“Gwen…” Steven panicked when he saw Gwen start to cry. “I… I shouldn’t ask you that, should I?

He clumsily drew out some tissues from the tissue box to pass them to Gwen. “Don’t cry–it’s my fault. I

just… I just wanted to ask. You…”

He passed the tissues over, but Gwen did not accept them. What he did not know was the tone he

talked in was so identical to Luke’s that it pained Gwen’s heart deeply.

She bit her lip to prevent herself from weeping and embarrassing herself. However, her sadness would

not just go away. Every time she thought of Luke, her heart started to throb painfully.

Steven, too, felt sad when he saw Gwen cry sadly with tears falling down her face incessantly. He no

longer tried to give Gwen the tissues. Instead, he extended his hand out and used the tissue to wipe

away Gwen’s tears.

His voice was panicked, bitter, and low. “Did I...say something that upset you? You... Did it remind you

of him?” Steven did not need to clarify which person he was referring to. Gwen knew he was asking

about Luke, thus she nodded feebly. “Yes.” Originally, she had no intention to answer, but she could not

help it.

Just a simple answer, but it pained Steven so much. He sighed. “Don‘t cry...” “I can‘t control myself...”

Gwen sniffed to stop her snot from drooling and tears from falling.

She turned around and hugged Steven, her entire being racked with helplessness. “What should I do? I

can‘t forget him... I really can‘t...”

After two days of recovery, she thought she had accepted the fact. Nonetheless, Steven‘s words

reminded her of Luke again. The man was deeply engraved in his heart that she just could not remove

him.

“I can‘t... I just can‘t...” Steven closed his eyes silently and embraced Gwen. “Why don‘t I help you to

get him back?”
