"I'm not being childish!" Steven furrowed his brow and threw away his father's hand. "I have my own life. Mr. Hughes, keep your hand away from me!"
He turned around and left.
Mr. Hughes looked at Steven walking away. He frowned and looked at his wife.
Mrs. Hughes squinted his eyes while her eyes wavered in coldness. "Ignore him! Let's go back!"
After saying that, she raised her hand to grab her husband's hand. They walked away from those bystanders and left. The crowd finally dispersed after the Hughes couple left.
When Luna and Joshua arrived there, they did not see Steven, Gwen, or the Hughes couple. Luna frowned and took out her telephone and called Gwen. At that time, Sean called her.
Lucas and the others had just rescued Luke from Hughes' residence and were on their way to the hotel.
"Luna," When the phone was connected, Sean asked nervously, "Did you find Denise? How is she doing? Is she hurt?"
"When I was at the Hughes' residence, I wanted to go rescue her together with Lucas. But Lucas told me she's not there anymore. Steven's parents had brought her somewhere else. Where is she now?"
Luna bit her lip and did not know what to say when she heard Sean's caring voice. After a while, she took a deep breath and said, "Go wait in the hotel first. We are…still looking for her."
Luna did not dare to say much as she was afraid Sean might sense there was something wrong. As she quickly hung up the phone, she received a call from Gwen.
"Luna," Gwen panicked. "Denise and I are now in the hospital. Steven came and left after he settled Denise's medical bill. He doesn't look so good. I wanted to go chase after him but the doctor is still saving Denise. I can't leave. Can you and Joshua…help? You can either come to take my place or go look for Steve. I'm worried about him."
