However, Sean never thought that...Luke had spared him simply because he wanted Terry to live to hear his verdict.
Luke was right: the best punishment for him would be to send him to jail, where he would suffer for the rest of his life, compared to a bloody but quick death.
As soon as he thought of this, the hostility in Sean's eyes was replaced with admiration toward Luke.
"Don't look at me like this. I was just helping out." Luke curled his lips into a smirk when he felt Sean's gaze on him, then lowered his head to glance at Gwen. " Do you still want to stay here?"
Gwen furrowed her brows in thought, then turned to glance at Bonnie and Sean. "Nevermind," she replied, staring at Bonnie. "Bonnie, Luna told me on the phone that you had just come out of surgery and that you almost died because you were locked inside a car...
"Who on earth tried to do this to you? Do you need Luke to help you get revenge?"
Bonnie could not help letting out a bitter chuckle when she heard this. "There’s no need. It was...Jim."
Gwen rolled her eyes in indignation upon hearing this. "That bastard! I can't believe he’d do this to you after you left everything in Banyan City behind to find him!
"If it weren’t for the fact that he's suffering from memory loss, I would've told Luke to punish him already!"
Bonnie smiled at her. "It’s okay. He just doesn't remember me, that’s all..." Perhaps to Jim, she was nothing more than a cunning, manipulative woman who was after him for his money.
Well, it did not matter anyway.
"You're such a softie, Bonnie.” Gwen let out a sigh. Then, after chatting with Bonnie for a short while, she and Luke turned and left.
However, the two of them had just taken a few steps when Luke froze, then glanced at Sean. "My offer still stands. If you need any help punishing Terry Simmons for what he did to your sister, you can always come to me.
