Pursuing my ex wife isnt easy

Chapter 2863

Gwen's eyebrows furrowed when she saw the name on her phone. She looked at Luna and Joshua for a moment and hesitated. After that, she turned and went to the balcony to answer the call.

"Steven." She frowned while looking at the snow and asked, "Did something happen?"

"Yes." Steven paused a while. "I'm home, but...something happened."

"What's wrong?" His voice was obviously tense and anxious. Gwen asked, "Does it have to do with Denise?

"Yes." Steven sighed over the phone. He sounded tired and helpless. "My parents have locked up Denise." Gwen was startled. "What about Sean?"

If she remembered correctly, Sean had accompanied Denise back to Steven's house.

"He's locked up too," explained Steven, "but they're not in the same place. When I came back, Sean had escaped. I don't know if he's run off to other places or is hiding in the house, waiting for the time to rescue Denise...

"I think I need your help. Joshua and Luna should have a way to contact Sean. Can you ask them to contact him? I'm scared that he doesn't know the situation in the residence and acted recklessly. It can easily backfire, and my parents can capture him again or even do something to Denise..."

Steven sounded very genuine that Gwen did not know what to say.

After a while, she sighed, "Then...do you know why your parents did it?"

If she was not wrong, Denise and Sean went to Hughes' residence because she wanted to take the adoption certificates and her personal documents. She did not even want to take any of the clothes she bought when she was still the young miss of the Hughes family. All she wanted to take away was the stuff that was related to her identity.

Did that infuriate Steven's parents?

Steven did not answer right away. In the end, he sighed deeply. "Denise came back to cut off ties with my parents and take back anything that relates to her identity. But my parents..."

His voice became hoarse. "They don't want to cut off ties with Denise. I don't know why they didn't want to let Denise go and insisted on making her stay to the extent of locking her up...

"Maybe it's because they developed a true family bond after being family for over twenty years. They don't want to see her leave and never see her again. Or maybe..."

Steven looked at the sky and sounded despair in his hoarse voice, "Maybe they're thinking they're at a loss after raising Denise for so many years, especially now that she's trying to leave." Gwen fell silent while holding her phone right beside her ear. After a while, she said, "It's most likely...the second reason."

It was unlikely Steven's parents had any feelings for Denise. Otherwise, they would never have used her to please the Howard family and even made sure they had nothing to do with her when she was in trouble a couple of times.

They felt bitter for not having any returns that they thought they should have received after raising and adopting Denise from the orphanage.

Steven did not refute what Gwen said.

He closed his eyes and sighed deeply. "Gwen, I know whatever I say now cannot change my parents' image. I also know in other people's minds, they're bad people-terrible, horrible people. But... they're my parents, and they've always been good to me. I can't..."

He paused for a while.

"I can't just send them to jail without feeling anything like you guys."
