Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 2873

The color drained from Mrs. Hughes' face as she replied, "I have no idea what you're talking about."

"Alright then." Gwen curled her lips into a small smile but did not intend to pursue this topic any further. "Well, just because you don't admit it doesn't mean we can ignore all the things you did."

With that, she turned to shoot Steven a tender glance and added, "Are you afraid, my dear? Please don't cry if your mother sets up an arranged marriage with other people for you! After all, not even Denise cried when she had to go through that."

Steven furrowed his brow when he heard this. A split second later, he reached out to clasp Gwen's hand and said calmly, "Don't worry, I won't, but more importantly—"

He lifted his head to stare in Mr. and Mrs. Hughes' direction. "I'm sure Mother and Father wouldn't do this to me."

"Why wouldn't they?" Gwen said, smiling. "After all, they had promised the Millers to allow you and Kate to become a couple should they successfully revive you. At that time, they had signed the contract regarding you and Kate's marriage while you were still in a coma… How are you so confident that they wouldn't do the same to you as they did to Denise and sell you off to Kate?"

The expression on Steven's face turned sour, and both Mr. and Mrs. Hughes balked at this.

Mrs. Hughes narrowed her eyes and stared coldly at Gwen. "How do you know all this?"

The contract between the Hughes and Miller families was a secret, not known to anyone outside of the family.

Not only that, but besides the few people who were physically there during the contract signing, not a single person had access to those documents—not even their personal assistants or butlers!
