CHAPTER 2333

"Therefore, after the baby is born, I'm going to leave Luke and go somewhere that no one can find me,

where I can start my life afresh—alone and with a brand new identity."

Luna could feel nothing but pain as she stared at Gwen's pale face.

Even though she could never understand Gwen's experience, she remembered how it had been like

when she suffered backlash from the media, when they accused her of taking advantage of the Landry

family fortune.

Even though the spectacle had lasted only a few days, it felt like she was put through hell.She could

not imagine being in Gwen's shoes.

After all, she was certain that the words coming out of mobsters' mouths would not be any kinder.

How many unkind insults had Gwen heard throughout her life? Even though she seemed nonchalant

about it, she must have gone through immense emotional turmoil at one point.

At the thought of this, Luna let out an exhale and said, "Alright.Gwennie, I promise to help you think of

a way to escape Luke."

"That's what best friends are for."

The color gradually returned to Gwen's cheeks as her face lit up.

"I'm so grateful to hear you say that, Luna."

She could never escape Luke without anyone's help; the incident at the station was a prime example of

that.

Therefore, she had no choice but to ask Luna and Joshua for help.

Luna let out a sigh and gripped Gwen's hand tightly in hers.

"My only hope is that...you'll be happier after leaving Luke."

However, deep down, Luna knew this was not possible.

Gwen loved Luke so much that she constantly put him before everything else, so how could she

possibly be happy without him? However, considering the fact that they were miserable together,

staying apart could be the better way out.

The two of them chatted in the garden for an entire morning, and just as noon approached, Nellie

pushed open the garden gates, sprinted into the yard, and leaped into Gwen's arms.

"God Mom!"

Gwen could not help cracking out a smile at the sight of Nellie.

"You're so adorable, Nellie, dear."

She sincerely wished that her child with Luke would be a girl, too.

Better yet, if she looked like Luke, but even more endearing.

That way, Luke would be charmed every time he laid eyes on her.

Luna let out a sigh when she saw the look on Gwen's face.

She could guess the exact thought running through Gwen's head at this moment.She curled her lips

into a smile said, "Nellie, you should spend more time with your Aunt Gwen.She loves you more than

anything."

Nellie murmured in affirmation and chirped, "Alright! You should stay for lunch today, Godmom!"

Gwen nodded, smiling.

As she did this, she could not help glancing at Luke through the window, who was sitting on the couch

in the middle of a conversation with Joshua.His brows were furrowed as though he was deep in thought

about a difficult problem they had to solve.He had been frowning so often lately that faint wrinkles were

beginning to form in-between eyebrows.

No matter how many times she told him to quit this little habit of frowning, he would never take it to

heart.

"What are you thinking about?"

Suddenly, a man's voice rang out next to her.She lifted her head.

Luna and Nellie had disappeared while she was engulfed in her thoughts, and at this moment, Luke

was leaning against the pillar of the gazebo, staring at her. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
