Chapter 864 The Person I Love The Most
Kenneth was stunned by that question. After a while, he said, “Marriage is not something to be trifled with. I asked your brother and he made the decisions after thinking about it seriously. As his grandpa, I have nothing else to say.”
“How can that be, Grandpa?” Frowning, Steven exclaimed, “Samuel’s change of heart will not only ruin Natalie, but also Luna!”
Kenneth was already feeling tormented enough. Now that he was being interrogated by Steven, he was so angry that his chest felt tight and his cheeks started to flush.
Steven wants me to say something, but what can I say? I’ve already promised Samuel that I’ll keep his body condition a secret.
“I…” Clutching his chest, Kenneth revealed a look of agony.
“Mr. Steven, can you stop fooling around? Can’t you see that Mr. Bowers isn’t feeling well?” Luna quickly steadied Kenneth and shot a cold glare at Steven. “I don’t know why you’re so insistent on changing your brother’s decision!”
“Why? You know the reason very well, Luna!” Now that Steven’s intentions had been revealed, he no longer concealed the affectionate look in his eyes.
“So what if I do?” Luna straightened her back, her clear eyes filled with stubbornness. “This is a decision that I made with your brother after deliberating about it for a long time. Mr. Steven, I hope that you can be more mature and stop acting so childishly. Your actions will only put Mr. Bowers in a tough spot. You can’t change anything! Since I’ve already agreed to Mr. Samuel’s proposal, I will not change my decision anymore.”
“Is this what you really think?” Steven scoffed in self-mockery.
“Yes!” insisted Luna stubbornly. “We belong to two different worlds right from the start. Look at what’s happening now! Even though I’m telling you my thoughts so seriously, you think that I’ve been threatened by someone else!”
“Hah!” As if he had just heard a hilarious joke, Steven laughed loudly. “Looks like I’m just being a busybody.”
Suppressing her urge to cry, Luna pursed her lips tightly and remained silent.
Steven left despondently.
After he finally left their field of sight, tears streamed down Luna’s cheeks.
“Luna, you actually have feelings for Steven, right?” asked Kenneth hoarsely.
Wiping the tears from her cheeks, Luna nodded.
Looking at how Luna had to pretend to be so merciless in front of Steven, Kenneth suddenly pitied her. Not knowing what to say, he could only pat her head gently.
Luna felt horrible too.
Although she did not regret her decision, it was difficult for her to cut all ties with Steven.
“The Garcia family doesn’t owe the Bowers family anything. It should be the other way around!”
Leaning against Kenneth’s shoulder, Luna treated him like her own grandfather. Tears kept falling down her cheeks.
“My poor child. If you want to cry, just cry to your heart’s content.” Kenneth sighed. His heart ached terribly, but there was nothing he could do.
Meanwhile, in a medical facility by the ocean, Samuel sat opposite a man in a silver mask.
With his hands folded, the man in the silver mask gazed at Samuel and asked, “How long are you planning to borrow my identity?”
“Half a year,” replied Samuel curtly. “Lend me your identity for the next half a year.”
“I’m curious. Why aren’t you using your status as the head of the Bowers family? Why do you want to pretend to be a disabled person?” asked Xander. “Is it because of this mask that I’m using to conceal my face?”
“Yes.” Samuel did not deny it. “You rarely go out, so no one knows you well. Since you always wear this mask, you’re the perfect cover.”
Even after hearing his explanation, Xander still could not understand it.
“I don’t understand, Samuel. Who are you meeting, such that you have to wear a mask?”
A helpless look crept into Samuel’s eyes. “She’s the person I love the most and the person I wish to lose the least.”
