Though Luca wanted to explain further, he knew in his heart that she wouldn’t believe him.
In the end, he let out a heavy sigh through his nose.
“Why did they want to kill President Pako?”
Hearing this, Luca looked up and saw her with a conflicted and remorseful expression. He hadn’t noticed that his fists were clenched tightly.
He placed her foot on the coffee table and sat down on the single sofa beside her, staring at her intently.
“Don’t worry, the bad guys will ultimately be brought to justice.”
Was that a line from Batman?
For some reason, the moment she heard those words, she felt like laughing, thinking it sounded like something a character from an anime would say.

Are you in pain?”Despite his bravado, Luca shook his head and waved his hand, forcing a smile as he denied, “I’m fine; just feeling a bit dizzy.”She didn’t believe him and quickly called for someone to help him to the tent.
