Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 2540

Silence fell within the car. Jim's eyebrows furrowed as he looked at Kate from the rearview mirror, his gaze whirling with doubt. "You... You stayed for over a year with Luke because of that?"

This was out of his expectation. What a coincidence this whole thing was!

However, after thinking deeply about it, it made sense.

More than a year ago, Luke did seek help from the Miller family because of Gwen's illness. He needed help from the Miller family's medical organization.

Before that, the Miller family and Luke had never been in contact. Luke was a gang leader of Merchant City and Sea City, and the Miller family was a large family dominating Europa. There was no benefit involved in their relationship at all.

If Luke did not promise the Miller family something, why would the family help him? The Miller family even entrusted Kate to Luke and sent out the most powerful specialist team to do the surgery for Luke and Gwen.

This was what Joshua and Jim could not understand, but with Kate's confession, the dots were connected. Indeed, Luke could not give the Miller family the thing they want through wealth or power. However... Luke's body was his token.

Therefore, the reason why Kate had stayed with Luke was valid, as well as the reason why Kate wanted Luke and Gwen to do the surgery as soon as possible.

"What else did you think was the reason?" Kate raised her head plainly and looked at Jim's face from the rearview mirror. She nonchalantly added, "I stayed with him to remind him to take care of his body. My fiance can't possibly receive damaged organs.”

She curled up her lips and sneered, "Heh. Did you think I stayed because I like him?"

Kate made herself comfortable as she leaned back on the car seat lazily. "Am I that crazy to like someone who’s about to die?"

Jim furrowed his brow. Maybe Kate would think what she said sounded very reasonable and calm, but from Jim's perspective, it sounded awfully sarcastic.
