Chapter 2842

Thomas' appearance made Steven furrow his brow in annoyance. He stared coldly back at Thomas and said, "I'll never be able to fully understand the pain you've gone through, and I never once said that you should forgive Denise for her wrongdoings, but you're a man, Thomas, so do you honestly think it's appropriate for you to punish a woman this way?

"There are plenty of ways to get revenge on a woman who crossed you, so why do you have to choose such an undignified way and force her to sell her own body and soul? Not only that, but you even said you'd send some people to help her if she couldn't accomplish her task by daylight. How the hell are you going to do that?"

Thomas narrowed his eyes upon hearing this. "I don't think I have to explain anything more to you."

"You-" Steven narrowed his eyes menacingly. "Do you think just because I've always been a mild-mannered person I wouldn't dare to lay a finger on you?"

With that, he pulled his sleeves up and took a small step toward Thomas. "I admit that oftentimes, I'd choose to settle conflicts civilly over violence, and in some people's opinions, I do this because I'm a coward, but things are different now.

"This time, I'm doing this to protect my family!"

He lunged in Thomas' direction and swung his fist right at Thomas' face!

Thomas never expected that Steven, the always mild-mannered and polite gentleman, would resort to violence. Thus, he did not manage to dodge his punch in time, and Steven's fist struck his face hard. Steven's punch packed so much that Thomas staggered backward, having to take two steps to steady himself. However, before he could even regain his composure, Steven raised his other fist.

He was so swift that Thomas did not even have the time to react. He watched as Steven's fist sailed toward him, and, knowing that he would not be able to dodge this in time either, he closed his eyes in surfender. To his surprise, the blow did not come.

Thomas opened his eyes slowly and came face-to-face with a veiny, muscular arm that belonged to none other than Joshua.

Joshua had stopped Steven's punch just in time. However, judging from the sheer strength exerted by Joshua in defense, it was clear that Steven had put his entire body into this punch.

Thomas instinctively took a step backward, all of a sudden regretting provoking Steven this much.

He knew just how strong Joshua was; the fact that Joshua was struggling to hold Steven back demonstrated the sheer force and anger behind Steven's advances.

He did not dare to imagine what would happen if Joshua had not shown up in time!

"Let go of me!" Steven glared daggers at Joshua. "This is between me and him, so don't you dare interfere.

"You can't beat him to death." Joshua did not intend to back down at all. "He's my cousin, so I can't just stand by and watch you beat him up." sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

He curled his lips into a smile as he stared at Steven. "You're becoming more and more like Luke." Even though Luke did not appear to be a particularly strong man, his strength during combat was not to be underestimated. Otherwise, he would not have managed to rise to the throne as the leader of the

biggest gang in Sea City, much less expand his power to Merchant City.

Steven was still miles away from becoming Luke, but Joshua had to admit that he was getting close.

"Is that so?" Steven curled his lips into a smirk. "Well, if you think I'm becoming more and more like Luke, do you believe I'll really beat him to death?"

He burst into a mischievous laugh and put down his fists. "Joshua, I only showed him mercy for your sake.

With that, he tucked his hands into his pockets and shot Thomas a cold look. "We've met before, Thomas Howard."

The entire hallway fell silent.

Gwen's eyes widened in shock as she stared at the man before her.

The tone of his voice, and the way he held himself...

"Luke?"

She stormed forward and grabbed hold of his hand. "Have you returned, Luke?"

She was absolutely certain.

She was certain that the man standing before her was none other than Luke!
