Chapter 2642 Joshua and Thomas rushed to Luna's hotel early in the morning. The other person being pulled along by Thomas was the groggy Yannie. The moment he entered, Joshua furrowed his brow and asked, "What happened?" Luna bit her lip and recounted the incident that happened in the restaurant the night before. "I thought she fell asleep after an entire night, so I went to rest for a while. I never thought I'd fall asleep like that... When I woke up, I couldn't find her anymore!" "Don't worry, she won't go missing."

Thomas furrowed his brow. "I've already gotten people to check on the security footage of the streets, and my men are sweeping the entire city. We'll find her." Then, he turned to look at Luna. "Did anything happen last night? Why would she suddenly think of Luke suddenly and drink so much wine?"

"I...think I know why." Yannie carefully raised her hand up like a student caught making a mistake. "Yesterday afternoon, when we were at the ski area playing, we bumped into Denise Hughes. She..." 1

Yannie was silent for a while before continuing, "She asked me whether I was skiing because of you, Thomas. She also said tha a person like me will forever have a distance from you, that no matter how hard I try, I'll never be able to enter your world."

Thomas could not help but furrow his eyebrows at Yannie's words.

Denise Hughes was at it again.

The last time, Denise and his stepmother brought Yannie to the house and bullied her while he was not around. He had not settled that score with them yet, yet Denise was already attacking Yannie again. Upon Yannie's words, Luna recalled the incident. "She's right. Yesterday at the ski area, I did see Yannie and Gwen with a stranger."

However, when she went over, that woman left. Gwen and Yannie did not tell her about it, so she did not know what happened. Thus, their gaze landed on Yannie.

Feeling their gazes, Yannie felt a huge pressure on her. She bit her lip and tried to recount the incident that happened the day before in full.

"Gwen stood up for me when Denise was bullying me. She took a knife out and intimidated them with it. Later, when they saw Luna coming over, they left." Thomas could not help but sneer at Yannie's words. "The Hughes family sure knows how to judge a person."

They bullied Yannie when they saw her, only retreating when they saw Gwen with her knite, leaving only when they saw Luna. That meant that they knew that Luna had Joshua supporting her. They could not afford to offend her.

In a way, that proved that his decision to take Joshua with him back was the right one. At least, even a spoiled heiress like Denise knew Joshua's name. Yannie furrowed her brow and continued recounting the incident the day before. "Before they left, Denise said..."

She took a deep breath and said, "She said that Gwen's knife was a fake one, because there was only one knife of that sort in the entire world, and it was with her brother. Gwen's one was an imitation that's what she said, at least."

Joshua could not help but furrow his eyebrows upon hearing that.

“If that's the case, we've found the reason why Gwen is sad." He looked at the wall in front, his gaze distant. “If I remembered correctly, Gwen's knife belonged to Luke."

Luna came to a realization. "So, you're saying that Gwen felt terrible upon hearing that Luke's knife was a fake, and that's why she drank so much wine?".
