Steven thought for a while and said, "I'll bring some of my men with me to look for her in the slums. You go and look for Joshua and Thomas. If they're still in the hotel where they were, get them to stay there longer. Whether or not I find Denise after this, I'll go meet them an hour later."
Gwen frowned. "What are you going to do?"
"If I find Denise, I'll bring her to go look for Thomas and tell him everything. Based on Denise's personality, she'd never forgive herself if she knew what she did was wrong, and Thomas never said that he had forgiven her. But, if I fail to find Denise…"
Steven narrowed his eyes. "I'll make Thomas pay for the things he said tonight."
With that, he straightened himself and walked out. Gwen stood there and looked at Steven leaving. She felt helpless and massaged her aching glabella. For some reason, she felt like Steven was beginning to resemble Luke.
It was not just the face…
The way he talked, and even his gaze, were starting to resemble Luke's, especially when he said he was going to make Thomas pay. There was a moment when Gwen thought Steven was Luke. Maybe she missed him so much that she could not differentiate between both men, she told herself.
After a while, she took a deep breath and took out her phone to call Luna. "Tell me where you are now."
Whether or not Steven could find Denise, she promised him she would help. Therefore, she would go look for Luna and the others as she was told.
Luna was confused. "What's wrong?"
"I'll tell you once I'm there," Gwen answered.
After she hung up the phone, she called for a taxi and headed straight to the hotel where Luna and the others were.
At the hotel…
