Chapter 864 The Person I Love The Most Kenneth was stunned by that question. After a while, he said, âMarriage 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.â
âHow can that be, Grandpa?â Frowning, Steven exclaimed, âSamuelâs change of heart will not only ruin Natalie, but also Luna!â
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? Iâve already promised Samuel that Iâll keep his body condition a secret.
âI...â Clutching his chest, Kenneth revealed a look of agony.
âMr. Steven, can you stop fooling around? Canât you see that Mr. Bowers isnât feeling well?â Luna quickly steadied Kenneth and shot a cold glare at Steven. âI donât know why youâre so insistent on changing your brotherâs decision!â
âWhy? You know the reason very well, Luna!â Now that Stevenâs intentions had been revealed, he no longer concealed the affectionate look in his eyes.
âSo what if I do?â Luna straightened her back, her clear eyes filled with stubbornness. âThis 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 canât change anything! Since Iâve already agreed to Mr. Samuelâs proposal, I will not change my decision anymore.â
âIs this what you really think?â Steven scoffed in self-mockery.
âYes!â insisted Luna stubbornly. âWe belong to two different worlds right from the start. Look at whatâs happening now! Even though Iâm telling you my thoughts so seriously, you think that Iâve been threatened by someone else!â
âHah!â As if he had just heard a hilarious joke, Steven laughed loudly. âLooks like Iâm just being a busybody.â
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 Lunaâs cheeks.
âLuna, you actually have feelings for Steven, right?â 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.
âThe Garcia family doesnât owe the Bowers family anything. It should be the other way around!â
Leaning against Kennethâs shoulder, Luna treated him like her own grandfather. Tears kept falling down her cheeks.
âMy poor child. If you want to cry, just cry to your heartâs content.â 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, âHow long are you planning to borrow my identity?â
âHalf a year,â replied Samuel curtly. âLend me your identity for the next half a year.â
âIâm curious. Why arenât you using your status as the head of the Bowers family? Why do you want to pretend to be a disabled person?â asked Xander. âIs it because of this mask that Iâm using to conceal my face?â
âYes.â Samuel did not deny it. âYou rarely go out, so no one knows you well. Since you always wear this mask, youâre the perfect cover.â
Even after hearing his explanation, Xander still could not understand it.
âI donât understand, Samuel. Who are you meeting, such that you have to wear a mask?â
A helpless look crept into Samuelâs eyes. âSheâs the person I love the most and the person I wish to lose the least.â
