Chapter 2745 Steven had a troubled look on his face after hearing what Gwen said. “Don‘t say that.” He paused for
a moment before he added, his voice hoarse, “My sister...she‘s not a bad person. It‘s all because of the influence
Mrs. Howard had over her that she turned into this person.”

He sighed. “It‘s all my fault. Before I was unconscious, my parents once mentioned they hoped Denise could marry
Thomas. They even took the initiative to ask Denise to become Mrs. Howard‘s goddaughter. I stopped them at that
time because I thought Denise deserved to live her life. She shouldn‘t listen to our parents‘ arrangement and be
with a man she hardly knows.
“After my accident, well...

He turned his head to the side to look out the window. The view outside was white in color as it was covered with
snow.” Truthfully speaking, I don‘t want Denise to bear all this burden.
“My parents kept saying Denise isn‘t their biological daughter, that they‘re afraid she‘ll leave them when she grows
up, so they want Denise to marry a good family here and continue to be by their side.
“I know what they truly mean, though. They just want to use Denise in exchange for their own benefits in the city.
She
won‘t live any happier marrying into the Howard family. If they want her to be happy, she should just marry an
ordinary family instead.” He smiled bitterly and massaged his glabella helplessly. “I talked too much. I shouldn‘t
have told both of you this.”
For some reason, he just could not help himself whenever he saw Gwen. She gave him a very cordial feeling that he
wanted to talk and share his thoughts with her.
This feeling did not appear after he knew his previous connection with Gwen. The first time he saw her post on
social media, he was already attracted to her.
When he saw her in real life for the first time, he wanted to be friends with her and talk to her...until he found out
that between him and Gwen was another man named Luke.
At that moment, Steven knew Gwen did not care about him. She did not treat him as a friend but as an enemy. That
did not stop him from withholding the desire to complain and share his thoughts with her, however. As he lost his
senses for a while, he told them many things.
When his senses came back, he paused and looked at Gwen with an embarrassed look. “Well, my main point is that

Even though Steven knew Denise had done something wrong, he still wanted to protect her. He had grown up
together with Denise since she was small, and he knew how persistent and hardheaded Denise was.
She kept saying that she loved Thomas and even did such an absurd thing in the name of love. However, she
probably did
not even know what love was. Just because her parents wanted her to do this and wanted her to do their bidding,
she brainwashed herself and followed everything they wanted just so they would be pleased. Thus, as time went on,
she tricked herself and did not even know what kind of life she wanted for herself.
“You‘re asking us not to hurt her?” Gwen snorted and raised her brow. “What about the damage she did to Yannie
and Thomas? Steven Hughes, do you think your sister can get away without being punished after what she has
done? Hurting her is just a mild punishment. “As of now, Thomas is still unaware of what happened. Once he knows
everything, do you believe that he won’t harm everyone in your family?”
