Chapter 2690

Rachel furrowed her brow after hearing what Steven had to say. She narrowed her eyes and looked at
this man who had clear and pure eyes.

She frowned.

The old Luke she knew was a gangster leader. He had an extraordinary identity, and his method of
solving problems was different from regular folks. He had the skill and ability to trick all of the people in
Sea City and Merchant City. He had vicious, cold eyes; ones that looked beyond and further than
everyone else.

However, this man who went by the name of Steven Hughes had clear, bright eyes, much like the eyes
of a kid who had not known the evil in the world.

Rachel hesitated when she saw the look in Steven’s eyes. She furrowed her brow and looked into his
eyes. “Do you really want to know what happened?”

She was a doctor. She understood once Steven knew the truth, his future would never be peaceful
anymore. Thus, she had to remind Steven of all of the pros and cons before telling him the truth.

Steven nodded as an ominous feeling rose in his chest. “My past…”

He paused and did not finish his sentence. He cocked up his head. “Does that woman, Gwen, have
anything to do with my past?”

Just as Steven finished talking, a sharp female voice came from below.

“Where’s Steven? I want to see him! Get him to come downstairs!”



It was Kate’s voice. Followingly, they heard Steven’s assistant’s voice, “Ms. Miller, Mr. Hughes is very
busy now. Can you please wait for a while?”

“Very busy?” Kate raised her volume and pitch. “Is he busy rekindling with that shameless woman?”

After leaving her house, Kate finally received word from her people.

They found out Steven went to the airport behind her back. In addition, there was a woman in his car
when he left the airport, and he brought her to his private estate.

Once Kate got to know of this, she was furious that Steven lied to her and went to the airport.

The Hughes Group did not have any overseas partners nor relatives living outside of Saigen City! Why
did Steven go to the airport? Was it because he wanted to stop Luna and Gwen from leaving?

Combined with the photo from before, Kate suspected the woman Steven brought to the private estate
was Gwen.

She knew it. Luna and Gwen, those two conniving bitches, would not leave Saigen City without a fight!
Although they looked like they were not after anything, they had contacted Steven secretly!

Frankly speaking, Kate blamed herself. She thought she had total control over Steven, that they were
in the clear.

She underestimated Gwen and Luna. She should have known that since Joshua had seen Steven,
Gwen and Luna would never lay low.

Her anger spiked when she thought about Steven spending time alone with Gwen upstairs in the room.
She bit her lip and pushed away the two assistants that were blocking her way to rush upstairs.

“Steven! Come out now! Don‘t listen to them!”



Kate dashed upstairs in one breath and kicked open the bedroom door.

At that moment, Rachel was sitting on the chair, drinking coffee in the bedroom. Steven furrowed his
brow while standing beside the door as if he was about to open the door. His face blanched as Kate
kicked open the door.
