Will you marry me, My Ex-Wife (Luna and Joshua)

Chapter 2837

"Denise had knelt on the floor, begging for forgiveness from Thomas and Yannie. She told them she knew what she did was wrong, but T-Thomas made her..."

Eva choked on her breath. "Thomas had Denise go to the slums and find ten homeless men to...do such a despicable thing, and he even told her to take photos. He also said..."

"What else did he say?" Steven furrowed his brow vehemently.

The blue veins on his hand protruded due to how tightly he gripped his phone.

"He said..." Evan sniffled. "He said if Denise doesn't accomplish this by tomorrow morning, he'll bring people and make her do it anyway..."

She burst into tears as the grief amounted. "Mr. Hughes, I know Denise isn't your biological sister, but you must still care for her as your sister! Even if she's done many wrong things in the past, it was fair enough for Thomas to want to end her life. He shouldn't have insulted and humiliated her like this!"

"What if Denise really did what he said? What future does Denise have then? How is she going to live? No one will ever want to marry her anymore!"

Each word Eva said pierced Steven's heart like they were needles.

He gripped the phone tightly and narrowed his eyes. He knew Denise had committed terrible deeds. As her brother, he had no right to ask other people to forgive his sister. In spite of that, he had been trying to help Denise atone for her mistakes, one way or another.

Therefore, when Kate sent someone to take Riley away from the hospital, he came out with a plan to make Kate's plan fail. He thought by saving Riley, Thomas might have felt slightly grateful and had some compassion toward him or Denise.

Alas...

After he saved Riley from Kate, Denise and Sean got there in time to rescue Riley from the mansion before Kate arrived. They even safely returned Riley back to Thomas.

It was just outrageous for Thomas to make such a request after Denise and he had saved Riley from Kate!

Like Eva said, if Thomas really hated Denise so much, he could end her life or send her to prison. It was unnecessary for him to punish Denise with this method that would insult her purity and dignity! Having those thoughts in his mind, he closed his eyes.

His voice sounded hoarse. "Then... Where is Denise now?"

Eva cried even louder when Steven finally asked Denise's location. "D-Denise is... She's heading toward the slum now. I was listening from the room across the hall. I know I don't

have any power to help her, so I...I left in a hurry. I tried to look for you in the Hughes family's residence but you weren't there. It took me a while before I finally spotted a maid I recognized and requested her to give me your number..."

Steven furrowed his brow. "If Denise is heading to the slum, then what about Thomas and the others?"

Eva sniffled. "I don't know if they're still in the hotel. They were in The Icy Ocean Hotel...but I think you shouldn't go look for them now. You should go look for Denise.

"Denise knows what she did was wrong and agreed with their terms. She said she

deserved to be punished and she volunteered to go there... Please hurry and send people to find her. Otherwise, I'm afraid it'll be too late!"

Steven closed his eyes. "I know. Don't worry. I'll send people to find her right away."
