Chapter 2667 It was their superstitious beliefs that led them to abandon Luke as a baby!
“Five years ago, Steven Hughes got involved in an accident and wound up in a coma, and because of this, the
Hughes family requested our help tracking down their lost child,” Mr. Miller continued. “Of course, Mr. Lynch, you
know that Miller Group has substantial resources in the medical field, but not only that, both our families had a
marriage agreement since a long time ago as well. “Therefore, the Hughes family agreed that if we helped Steven
wake up from his coma, they‘d let their son marry our precious Kate.” Joshua narrowed his eyes and tapped his
slender fingers lightly against the coffee table. “So this was how you found Luke?”
Mr. Miller nodded. “That‘s right. About a year ago, Luke came to seek our help, and just the first glance at him
shocked us all to our cores. He and Steven were like carbon copies of each other!
“We‘ve been searching for him for five years, and we never thought that he‘d appear on our doorstep!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJoshua furrowed his eyebrows. “What happened next?” Mr. Miller sighed and could not help feeling a little guilty
when he thought of this. “Well, you know full well that Luke had come to us because of his girlfriend, Gwen. “After
our medical experts conducted a thorough workup on her, they found that even though Gwen was in ill health, she
would, fortunately, be cured if she received a heart transplant from Luke...”
He sighed and continued, “Initially, we had planned to give Luke‘s to Gwen, whereas the rest of his organs would go
to Steven. That way, Steven stood a chance of waking up from his coma, but this came with risks and
complications, of course.”
Mr. Miller rubbed his glabella in frustration. “Therefore, we came up with another plan.
“Since Luke and Steven were identical twins, Steven‘s heart would also be able to save Gwen.
ourse of action was to transplant Steven‘s heart into Gwen‘s body, which would save Gwen and also allow Luke to
return to his family and become the rightful heir to the Hughes fortune.
“However, the Hughes family would never agree to this. After all, they had raised Steven since birth, but not only
that, they‘d never allow a gangster to take over the family fortune.” A glimmer of malice flashed through Joshua‘s
eyes. If Luke was still alive, he would not have wanted to reclaim his family after knowing what kind of people they
were. He was such an arrogant and prideful man; he would never have imagined that his family would look down
on him like this.
“We dabbled on this for a long time and finally came to a compromise.”
Mr. Miller turned his head away so as not to meet Joshua‘s gaze. “In the end, we used Steven‘s heart to save Gwen
as a tribute to Luke.
“The body you guys buried was, in fact, Steven‘s, and as for the real Luke...” Mr. Miller sniffed. “We wiped all of
Luke‘s memories away and instilled his mind with Steven‘s instead. To put it in simpler terms, the man you now

Joshua narrowed his eyes. “Does this mean that Luke has lost all his memories?”
“Well, not just his memories.” Mr. Miller shook his head. “All the information in his brain. including his memories,
higher thinking, and logical reasoning, are all Steven‘s. “We simply borrowed Luke‘s body as a vessel, but its core
still belongs to Steven.
“This was the only way to bring Steven back to life.
“The Hughes family were unwilling to accept a gangster as their son, and we, the Miller family, are unwilling to let
our daughter marry a man whose heart belongs to someone else. “Now, Steven is the perfect being, the one who
strikes the perfect balance for both families.”
