Chapter 2485
Gwen‘s face was filled with doubt when she asked this.
Luke could not help curling his lips into a smile as he met her nervous, darting gaze. “What is there for me to
overhear?”
Then, he shifted into a comfortable position as he leaned against the doorframe and gently tilted Gwen‘s chin up,
forcing her to meet his gaze. “Did you say something to Luna about me that you didn‘t want me to overhear?”
He was asking her this on purpose, but to Gwen, she thought this meant he had not heard anything at all.
She let out a sigh of relief. “Nothing; I was just talking to Luna about women‘s stuff and didn‘t want you to hear.”
Luke curled his lips into a smirk and leaned forward to gently kiss her on the lips. “It‘s about time. You guys should
bring Bonnie to the hall now.”

you can tell it to me in bed tonight.‘
Gwen‘s entire body stiffened when she heard this, and a split second later, her cheeks flushed scarlet.
She shoved him away from her and said, “Alright, alright.”
Then, she darted back into the room and emerged again with Luna, wheeling Bonnie in her wedding dress.
As soon as she came out of the room, Luna caught sight of Luke standing at the door. Instantly, she remembered
Kate and was reminded of how lenient Luke had been toward her.
At the thought of this, she rolled her eyes at Luke and proceeded to wheel Bonnie down the hall with Gwen.
Luke sighed as he stared at their retreating figures, then leaned against the wall, took out a cigarette from his
pocket, and lit it.
Through the puff of the cigarette smoke, he could see Kate‘s silhouette walking in his direction.
She stopped next to him, took out another cigarette from her pocket, and lit it as well.
She leaned against the wall next to him and watched Luna and Gwen leave. “Feeling sad now? It‘s not too late for
you to change your mind; there‘s no telling she won‘t make it through...”
Luke sneered and turned to glance at her. “Once I make up my mind, there‘s no changing it.”
Then, the closed his eyes and took a puff of his cigarette. “You should probably go home soon, shouldn‘t you? I
promised your family I‘d take care of you until you decide to return home, but I don‘t have much time left now.”
Kate glanced at him, frowning. “What if I tell you I haven‘t had enough fun yet?”
“What‘s wrong? You want to stay and attend my funeral?” Luke let out a self–deprecating smile. “Don‘t bother; I just
want to leave in peace.”
Kate stared at him, still frowning. “I won‘t bother you.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing that there was no point trying to persuade her otherwise, Luke shrugged and put out his cigarette. Suit
yourself.”
Then, he turned and strode in the direction Luna and Gwen had left.
Kate narrowed her eyes as she watched him leave, and after a long while, a small smile crept onto her face.
Kate Miller was a woman who always got what she wanted.
When Luna and Gwen wheeled Bonnie into the Landry family living room, Jim was already waiting, dressed in a
white tuxedo with gold trimming.
Next to him stood Harvey, his eyes red–rimmed and dressed in a smaller but identical version of the same suit.
