CHAPTER 2544

Gwen hugged Luke‘s waist excitedly. Tears fell. She did not want to leave him; this was her innermost

thought. Days before this, she kept thinking of how to leave him, knowing that it would be best for them

both, but...she missed him. She still did.

Because of that, she always found excuses for herself, telling herself that it was because he kept

caring for her too much, so she did not have a chance to leave.

However, at that moment, if Luke truly left, she no longer had any more excuses to lie to herself!

Gwen shut her eyes. Her tears seeped into Luke‘s clothes, burning his body.

“Can you not leave? “Luke, I... I‘ve been by your side for so long. Not once was I capricious, but this

time, let me be demanding this time!

“I don‘t want you to leave! No!” Gwen‘s tears and cries made Luke‘s heart constrict tightly. He lowered

his head and gazed at how her arms clung to his waist and her tear–stricken side profile.

He took a deep breath, reached his huge palm out, and gently caressed her hair.

“Good girl. I know you were never capricious, so...don‘t be this time. Maybe next time.”

Then, he reached out and gently pried her hands away from his waist. Têxt © .

“I really need to leave.” Luke hinted at his men with a look before shrugging Gwen off. How could

Gwen, whose body was frail, be able to withstand such a torment? She stumbled backward, losing her

balance, and almost fell.

Thankfully, one of Luke‘s men reacted quickly and held onto Gwen.

Luke furrowed his brow and strode into the lift without looking back.

Gwen slumped to the floor and watched as the elevator door slammed shut.

At that moment, she felt that the doors had closed on her relationship with Luke and her heart.

Was this...the end of them?

Luke was not willing to stay for her. What other reason did she have to not leave him?

In fact, Luke never liked her that much, did he?

If he said that he loved her and adored her, he would not have chosen that moment to leave when she

had such an important surgery the next day. She had begged him many times, pleaded with tears, yet

he did not choose to forgo his initial plan.

He was not willing to give up any gang mission. He still chose to leave.

Gwen closed her eyes as tears fell silently.

Perhaps it was all unrequited love. It was all her fault. Perhaps, in Luke‘s heart, she was just a

dispensable woman. Thus, why did she have to miss him?

“Mrs. Larson, let me help you back to your room.” Seeing Gwen on the floor crying, Luke‘s subordinate

sighed DeVg\!{N gently helped her up. “Your body is in a frail state right now. You have to go and rest.

“Boss is...”

The subordinate sighed. “He‘ll return once he is done with his business. It won‘t be long!”

Gwen shut her eyes and smiled bitterly. “When he finishes his business and returns, does that have

anything to do with me?” sneered Gwen before she ambled back into her ward with her remaining

strength.

After the surgery the next day, she was going to contact Luna and Bonnie to help her leave.

This time, she would no longer lie to herself. She wanted to leave Luke forever!

Luke‘s subordinate followed behind Gwen. Looking at her determined and desperate back, he sighed

deeply.
