“Sean is really good to me. I’ve made up my mind to marry him. Our biggest obstacle right now,
however, is probably his brother…” Denise sighed when she thought of Sean’s brother.
Sean had told her that his brother was Joshua’s best friend, and unfortunately, Joshua had seen every This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
bad deed she had done. She was genuinely afraid Sean’s brother would think badly of her and treat
her with bias because of Joshua’s influence.
“Don’t worry.” Sean/smiled. “I’ll do everything I can to make him see my way. Even if I fail…”
He smiled again. “It doesn’t matter. I’m the one who wants to be with you, and I’m the one who’s going
to give you your happiness. My brother’s opinion is just for reference purposes only. I won’t listen to
everything he says.”
He did not say those things in particular for Steven and Gwen to hear, but they felt his sincerity after
hearing that.
Steven paused for a while and looked at Denise again. “So…when you called me to tell me you’re
going back to the house to pack your stuff to live outside, it’s because you’re going to stay with him?”
Denise nodded. “Yes. I…want to go to Merchant City with him.”
Nothing in this city awaited her except for Steven; he was the only thing worth staying for. Although she
used to have many friends, they were friends with the young miss of the Hughes family, Denise
Hughes- not Denise the orphan.
Besides, even if her identity was reinstated, those friends she used to be friends with would not admit
to being her friends. They might even laugh at her and belittle her.
She had been friends with those socialites long enough to understand them.
After internally debating with herself, she decided to go to Merchant City with Sean. They would
register their marriage, and she would turn a new leaf and start afresh with him.
Steven sighed and took a good look at Denise. Although he was saddened that his sister was leaving,
it was the best choice for Denise to leave this miserable place and be with Sean. Moreover, no one
knew if Thomas might cause her trouble in the future because of how Denise plotted against him and
Yannie.
In the end, he sighed and walked to Sean. Grabbing the man’s hand, he said, “Then, I’ll hand Denise to
you. She’s made…many mistakes in the past and believed the wrong person. Please take care of her.”
Sean nodded resolutely. “I will.”
Despite having known Denise for less than a day, it was how destiny worked sometimes; it was
magical. He had liked Bonnie and had some feelings for Kate before in the past, but none of them
excited him as when he met Denise.
Last night, she made him feel the joy and fulfillment of being a man. She also taught him to understand
what sort of reaction his body has when a man was truly in love with a woman.
Perhaps she was a bad woman in the past and had made many unforgivable mistakes. Nonetheless,
she was cute, naive, and kind when she was with him. That was all that mattered.
If a person felt the need to judge everything their love interest did in the past because they liked them,
then their feelings were fragile to begin with.
“Alright, brother.” Seeing Steven had nothing to say, Denise grabbed Sean’s hand and stood in front of
Steven. She bowed to him. “Thank you for taking care of me all these years. I’m going to go back to the
house to pack up my things with Sean now.”
Frankly, there was nothing much to pack. The most important thing was to take the adoption papers
that proved she was adopted by the Hughes family. She was no longer a member of the Hughes family
and refused to bear the family name anymore.
Therefore, she needed some evidence to sever her ties with the Hughes family.
“After I finish packing, we’ll head to Merchant City and never come back.”
Sean had fulfilled all of his purposes of coming to Saigen City. Other than helping Nigel and Neil to take
care of Riley, he came to meet Steven.
With all these accomplished, it was time for him to head back.
“Sean.” When Gwen heard Denise saying that they were heading to Merchant City, she paused and
waved at Sean. “Come here. There’s something I want to talk to you about.”
