Kurt was even more baffled at that moment. His boss was not dead, but he even gave himself a new name!
He went from Luke Jones to Stefan Joneson?
"Let's go. I'll take you to the doctor." Stefan furrowed his eyebrows, walked over, and helped Kurt stand up. "What happened to your arm?"
Kurt paused for a while before saying honestly, "I broke it in an accident on delivery a few days ago."
As Stefan helped him up, he sighed and added, "Max Church sent those men to check on me to see if I've been in contact with Gwen, but when they saw my broken arm, they started extorting me for money and bullying me."
Kurt smiled bitterly at Stefan. "Have I embarrassed you?"
Things were different when he was with Luke as it was him doing the beating; never was there a moment when Kurt was beaten. However, at that moment…
Kurt felt terrible letting his former boss see him beaten up so badly.
"It's not embarrassing at all." Stefan was silent for a long time before sighing deeply. "It's my fault. All I was concerned about back then was Gwen, and I never considered what your lives would be like after I died. You did nothing wrong."
Kurt shook his head fervently. "Boss, I respect you, not only because you can fight well and you're the core of the gang but also because of your devotion to Gwen. A man who could give up his life for the woman he loves must be a man with passion.
"People like us who've been out and about fighting only care about profit—it's what makes our world go round. The only thing that could make your brothers fight for you is passion, so how could passion be a bad thing?"
Stefan sighed. "Stop it, you."
