Denise was furious because of what Kate said.
"It's not a surprise. People who are friends with that wretch are wretched themselves!"
She remembered the time she saw Yannie at the ski resort. A woman ran to Yannie and protected her. Furthermore, she even took out the same fabricated military knife as her brother's to threaten her.
Denise furrowed her brow and looked at Kate. "That woman who seduced my brother… Is she the one who came with Joshua Lynch's wife, Luna?"
"That's her, alright." Kate was thrilled that Denise was smart to mention Gwen with her guidance. Even so, she pretended to look upset.
She sighed and looked at Denise with a helpless face like her heart was broken and nothing could describe her feelings. After a while, she grabbed Denise's hand.
"Denise, I'm sure you're aware that woman is very close with Joshua Lynch's wife, Luna. They came together. You know what Joshua Lynch is capable, too. Furthermore, he's really close to Thomas now, and your dream to be Mrs. Howard is now…
"We can't afford to offend them."
She wiped off the tears from her eyes and looked at Denise tearily. "Denise, I know you feel bad for me. You've treated me as a family for the past five years, but this… Just forget about it. Don't be reckless and go find her. Okay?"
Denise felt downcast upon seeing how heartbroken Kate seemed. She did not know the actual story of how her brother managed to wake up and did not know Gwen was Luke's loved one. She only knew that a friend of Luna and Yannie tried to seduce her brother, and she successfully wooed him, so much so that her brother wanted to break up with her sister-in-law she had acknowledged since five years ago.
