After a moment of silence, Gwen nodded vehemently. "Thank you. I'll go tell Joshua and the rest about Denise and Sean now. After I'm finished here, I'll go over to your place to look for you."
Since Denise and Sean were both in danger, it was better for her to go over as soon as possible to distract Mr. and Mrs. Hughes.
…
"Steven's parents are gross." Luna frowned after knowing what happened to Denise and Sean. "They specifically said Denise had nothing to do with them. They made it very clear that she was adopted. Now that Denise finally found the love of her life and wanted to cut ties with them, they're pulling this?"
She pursed her lips. "They're so mean."
Although Luna did not like Denise, she was a mother of four. She knew the bond between the parents and the child. Even if the child was adopted, the parents should never treat the child any differently.
The only explanation was that Steven's parents were heartless, cold-blooded people that had not a smidge of sentiment for Denise. The only thing they cared about was the advantage they could attain from being her parents.
She stretched her mouth and said, "How could people like them have Steven and Luke as their parents?"
Joshua smiled. "Parents and children are different from one another. My father is a jerk. Do you think I'm a jerk, too?"
A simple statement, yet it left Luna speechless. When they were organizing the information on how the Hughes family and the Miller family plotted against Luke, Joshua had already taken out all the evidence of what Adrian had done to Joshua's mother, Rianna.
