Chapter 667

The atmosphere in the room was eerily quiet.

Luna took the marriage certificate from Gwen and flipped through it a few times to make sure it was real.

She always guessed that Luke was interested in Gwen. Otherwise, he would not have cared so much
about her, but she did not expect that he would use this as a condition before allowing Gwen to proceed
with her abortion.

“I was just using it to scare her.“ Luke, who had remained silent all this while, suddenly stood up and
snatched the marriage certificate away from Luna. “I told her that if she wanted to undergo an abortion,
the only way I’d allow it is if she married me.“

“I thought she would refuse to, but I was surprised. She’s so desperate to get rid of this child that she’s
even willing to marry someone like me.“

Luke carefully tucked the marriage certificate away and sauntered over to the door. “I guess this is good,
too. If she dies during the procedure, at least she’ll have a husband to visit her grave now and then.“

Then, he opened the door. “By the way, the surgery is arranged for this afternoon.“

Just as he was about to leave, Luke could not stop himself from turning around to glance at Luna. “I have
to admit that you’re good. Joshua spent the entire night convincing me to go ahead with the abortion.
You’re probably the only person who could get him to do something like this.“

With that, he turned around and left the room, slamming the door behind him.

“Luna, “ Gwen said feebly after Luke had left. “Did I… make a mistake?“

Her eyes were still red —rimmed from her previous crying. “Just now, I asked Luke what would happen t
o him if I died… He told me that even if I died, his heart would be with me forever.“



Gwen closed her eyes. “Did I make a mistake? Luke is such a good person, and I don’t want him to
waste his life away…“

Luke pursed her lips and reached out to grab Gwen’s hand. “You’ll be fine. Have you ever thought of
what would happen if you didn’t die and instead survived the surgery?“

Gwen blushed slightly when she heard this. “Luke said that as soon as I recovered, he’d host the most
majestic wedding in Sea City…“ She lowered her head and let out a bitter smile. “Luna, I’ve been
married before, and I’ve been used by so many other men before Luke… How can I possibly match up to
him?“

Luna gripped Gwen’s hand as tight as she could. “ Please don’t say that. You deserve this. Since Luke
loves you so much, please believe that you’re deserving of his love. Don’t overthink everything.“

She consoled Gwen in a gentle voice, “Get some rest. Your surgery is set for this afternoon. Don’t worry
about anything; you’ll be fine.“

“Okay.“ Gwen nodded earnestly, then lifted her head to gaze at Luna. “We’ll be fine—both of us. I’ll
recover from this, and I’m sure Nigel will, too.“

Suddenly, Gwen seemed to recall something and said to Luna, “By the way, Luke told me just now that
Joshua found out about your baby, but he… He thinks the child belongs to Theo.“

Luna interjected before she could continue, “It’s not necessarily a bad thing that he misunderstood. At
least he won’t try to do anything bad to my child for now.“

Gwen paused, then nodded in agreement. “You’re right.“

Luna spent the entire morning by Gwen’s bedside. After lunch, a doctor stopped by Gwen’s ward to give
her a checkup before her surgery.



“Your body is in much better shape than it was a few days ago, so this will significantly lower the risks
during your surgery.“ The doctor stared at Gwen’s report and could not help adding, “I guess women do
know women best. Previously, when Mr. Jones was looking after her, her condition didn’t improve at all.“

Gwen smiled when she heard this. “Well, it’s all thanks to my friend.“
