Chapter 2692 Kate froze when she heard this.
A split second later, she lifted her head, staring right into Steven‘s searching gaze, and bit her lip nervously. “What
are you trying to say, Steven? Do you not trust me?” Steven chuckled when he saw how Kate tried to deflect
responsibility. “You‘re the one who didn‘t trust me in the first place.”
Steven never thought that his fiancee would secretly track his every move.
If she had not, how could she have discovered the address of his private residence, much less know that he had
brought a woman home from the airport?
Steven did not remember much about his first impression of Kate. Although he had known since he was young that
the Hughes and Miller families were close and had a marriage agreement, he never cared much about these

However, when he awoke after five years of being in a coma, everyone told him that he and Kate had gotten
engaged prior to his accident. Not only that, but his parents also emphasized how much Kate had sacrificed for him
during the past five years.
Therefore, Steven had always been inclined to think that Kate was a kind and loving woman who was utterly
devoted to him.
The few times he came across Gwen and developed feelings for her, he would thereafter be overcome by his guilt
and feel that he was betraying Kate, but at this moment...
Staring at the woman before him, Steven suddenly realized just how foreign she seemed.
He could not believe that Kate, the fiancee that loved him above all else, was secretly following him all along!
“It‘s not that I don‘t trust you, Steven!” Kate wrapped her arms tightly around his body. “I was worried that
something bad would happen to you because...”
She bit her lip and said, “I love you, I really do, and I don‘t ever want to lose you again, so I...”
“Is that so?” Steven gently pried her hands away and plopped down in the nearest seat.” You‘re doing this because
you love me?” He lifted his head to stare coldly at Kate. “If you do, why have you never seemed bothered by the
fact that I frequently have headaches and nightmares?” He narrowed his eyes. “What have you done to me when I
was in my coma, Kate?”
Kate‘s entire body stiffened upon hearing this. She bit her lip nervously, her whole body frozen in stupor. “Steven...
Did… What did Rachel tell you just now? Please don‘t believe her! She‘s not telling the truth!” Kate lunged forward,
got onto one knee, and grabbed hold of Steven‘s hand in desperation.” Steven, we‘re about to get married soon; I
should be the person you trust. Please don‘t believe in what other people say to you, alright?” Tears brimmed in her
eyes as she wailed, “Please, Steven, can you trust me?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe had already sacrificed so much for him; she could not possibly lose him at this juncture!
If Steven regained all of Luke‘s memories, it would not be something as simple as losing Luke.
Steven had already donated his heart to Gwen, and if the man before her was no longer Steven, this meant that
the real Steven would cease to exist.
If that happened, the Hughes family would want someone to bear the brunt of this responsibility, and the Miller
family would have to pay the price!
She had to stop this from happening at all costs! At the thought of this, tears began to slide down Kate‘s face.
“Steven, I‘ve been waiting for you for five years and sacrificed so much for you! Do you have any idea what other
people have done for you during this time?” Steven lowered his head to stare at the kneeling woman before him,
and a twinge of pain shot through his heart.
Kate was right; she had sacrificed so much and put in so much effort to help him awake from his coma, and the last
thing he should have done...was to question her motives. Perhaps she had been telling the truth.
