Chapter 2703

Gwen was standing at Rachel‘s door, holding a tray of muffins she had just baked. She grinned at
Rachel and said, “Dr. Liddell, it‘s already sixty–thirty in the morning now. Luna told me you‘ve always
been an early riser, so I figured you‘d be awake by now.” She handed Rachel a muffin and added, “I
don‘t really know what you like, so I decided to just wing it. I hope it‘s good enough!” Rachel pursed her
lips slightly at this. “Gwen, you‘re Luna and Theo‘s friend, so that means you‘re a friend of mine, too.

“The reason I had come to Saigen City was that I noticed how similar Steven looked to Luke in the
photo attached with his file. That‘s why I decided to fly over to see what was happening.”

She took the muffin from Gwen and explained, “You don‘t have to be so courteous to me, and I don‘t
need you to keep thanking me like this. This is what a friend—and a doctor–should do.

Then, she smiled at Gwen. “Thank you for your kindness. From today onward, we‘re even, so you don‘t
have to go to so much trouble for me anymore.”

Rachel knew just how much time and effort had to be put into preparing and baking these muffins. It
was only 6:30 a.m., so Gwen had probably been up since 5 a.m. or even earlier.

Even though she appreciated Gwen‘s gesture, Rachel still could not help feeling a little uneasy.

Gwen sniffed when she noticed this. “It‘s no problem at all. I love doing things like this, but if you don‘t
like it, I‘ll stop, but I just want to say that…I‘m willing to do anything in return for you helping me.”

Ever since Luke left, she had lost all her will to live, and now, the only thing that kept her going was the
thought of suing the Miller and Hughes families and making them pay the price for hurting Luke.

When all this was over, she could finally pry Steven‘s heart out of her chest, give it back to him, and
join Luke in the afterlife. Therefore, she wanted to show Rachel her gratitude while she was still



around. If Rachel had not come to Saigen City, she would probably still be oblivious to what had
happened to Luke.

Rachel sighed when she saw how distressed Gwen looked. She put down the muffin and gently
wrapped her arms around Gwen‘s shoulders. “Gwen, I can see how hard you‘re trying to keep it
together. You‘re not the only one in this relationship, and I‘m sure that Luke would want you to forget
about him and move on, too.

“Can you promise me that you‘ll move on and live your life freely after avenging Luke‘s death? “If you
don‘t, Luke will never forgive you even if you join him in the afterlife. After all, the reason he had done
all this was to help you live a good and happy life.”

Gwen bit her lip but did not respond.

She lowered her head like a guilty child and stammered, “I..I know…but…“.

She could not push herself to forget about Luke! All of a sudden, Rachel‘s phone rang.

It was the DNA Diagnostic Center calling. “Dr. Liddell, the DNA cross–matching results you requested
have come out…”
