Chapter 2805
Chapter 2805 Gwen, who was hugging Steven, shivered at what he said. She furrowed her brow and removed herself from his embrace. After she wiped off the tears from her face, she asked, "How are you going to get him back?" Steven sighed when he saw Gwen's swollen eyes. He took out a medicine bottle from the car." With this."
This was the medicine he requested from the doctor yesterday.
"Maybe this medicine can help you to regain back the memory of Luke gradually. However, I need to warn you about the risk of taking this medicine, Mr. Hughes. Because of your special condition, we've never had a patient with your condition before, so we need to tell you the truth.
"The best part of this medicine is to help you recall Luke's memory and gradually turn you into the person you want to be. However, with your current personality, you'll be devoured," the doctor said. "What's the worst case that could happen?" Steven had asked.
"The worst case...is that you'll end up with mental illness, Dissociative Identity Disorder...or in simple terms, split personality," the doctor replied.
"What is this?"
Gwen's voice pulled Steven back to the current world.
He looked at the medicine bottle Gwen took and smiled faintly. "This is the thing that can help bring Luke back."
Yesterday, the doctor had told him the worst case that could happen to him after he took the medicine-he would develop a split personality. On and off, he would become another person.
At this point, he suddenly felt like... it was not a bad choice to have a split personality when he saw how upset Gwen was. At least, there would be a time that he would become the person she loved the most to ease her sadness of losing Luke.
It was a good choice, was it not? He did not want to see her cry or feel upset.
"Are you saying...this medicine can turn you into Luke?" Gwen furrowed her brow and looked at the medicine bottle with scribbles written in a foreign language she did not understand. Her eyes were filled with doubt.
Steven nodded. "Yes. As long as I take it continuously, you can probably see the effect within a month"
Before he could finish his sentence, Gwen wound down the window and threw the medicine bottle away. "No."
Steven reeled back in shock at her abrupt action. For a long period, he failed to find words to express his feelings. "I don't need you to make the sacrifice." Gwen wiped away the remaining tears at the corner of her eyes and looked up at Steven. “Yes, I'm devastated by Luke's death, and I'm also angry with what your parents and the Miller family did to Luke. However, I can also tell the difference.
"You are Steven, not Luke. Since Luke passed to save your life, you should live happily for his sake. I don't need you to turn back into Luke. And please give up that thought." She then gazed up ahead. "Aren't we going to the hospital? Let's go. Don't waste any more
time."
Steven's body trembled after hearing what Gwen said. He did not expect...to get such a reply from Gwen when he suggested regaining Luke's memory. After a moment of silence, he did not say anything and started the car engine.
Gwen sat in the passenger seat and looked at the road in front of her. Albeit what she said, the sadness did not vanish.
If Steven took out the medicine yesterday and proposed to turn him back into Luke, she would be extremely grateful and excited. At this point, however, she had promised Denise to leave herself and Steven in peace.
After settling the case with the Hughes family and the Miller family for framing Luke, she would let Steven go so he could live happily ever after.
It was important to be a person who held true to their word; this was a principle Luke taught her before he passed.
