The man could not help curling his lips into a smile when he heard this. "I'm the last person in this world to be scared of death."
The truth was, he should have died long ago.
Who would have thought…a man that should have died would turn out to be resurrected in his twin brother's body?
"That's good to hear." Gwen paused. "I'm willing to pay you double whatever Joshua's paying you. If you follow me back to Sea City, you'll be getting triple the amount of money than what you're getting now."
With that, she let out an exhale and continued, "Can you help me buy the tickets? Let's go to Sea City."
"Alright." The man smiled, strode into the living room, and sat down on the sofa.
Gwen could not help glancing at his name while he bought the plane tickets to Sea City.
His name was Stefan Joneson.
Not a bad name.
Gwen was ready to depart with all her belongings.
She was just here on a short trip and thus did not have much stuff with her.
Stefan was an even bigger minimalist; all his belongings could fit into a single backpack.
After packing their bags, the two of them arrived at the airport and caught the first flight back to Sea City.
It had been so long since she returned, that as soon as the plane landed, Gwen could not help taking deep breaths of the city's air. She turned to glance at Stefan and asked, "Can you get me one of your caps and masks?"
Luke's old subordinates had eyes on the airport and train stations at all times, and although she was not scared of them, she did not want to get caught the moment she stepped off her flight.
Stefan was silent for a moment, then curled his lips into a smile. "Well, I can give you one of mine, but unfortunately, they've all been used. Are you sure you don't mind?"
Gwen shrugged. "Staying alive is far more important."
Stefan grinned at this. A split second later, he curled his lips into a smirk and handed her a brand-new cap and mask. "I was kidding. These are brand-new."
"Thanks." Gwen took them from him and proceeded to put them on, glancing at Stefan with a smile. "Do we look like criminals?"
