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.

With a dull thud, the sound wasn’t loud, but it drew everyone’s attention.They saw Luca suddenly lean against the car hood, looking as if he were in considerable discomfort.Vanessa, closest to him, rushed over to support him and anxiously asked, “What’s wrong? 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. After examining him, the accompanying doctor emerged with a frown.“Mr. Kensington has sustained an injury to his side, likely from a collision and subsequent fall, which has led to an infection. He needs to be taken to the hospital immediately for treatment and medication.”Vanessa was shocked and glanced at Luca, whose complexion was already looking quite bad.

She quickly turned back to her room, hugging Isla and spending a sleepless night.What does Luca mean by this? Is he finding someone to protect her and Isla? Is he so worried about Isla because he knows her true identity?As these thoughts swirled in her mind, she self-doubted and questioned whether he genuinely wanted to protect the two of them, feeling that something didn’t quite add up.After pondering, she wondered if his moving in was indeed to protect her?For some reason, just thinking about it made her heart skip a beat. ...Ever since the police visited Beatriz to inquire about the c

She was grateful that he had saved her, yet she was still unwilling to easily forgive him for what he had done before.Conflicted, Vanessa found herself alternating between memories of Luca, injured and approaching her, and his cold demeanor when he had plotted against her child.These two extreme emotions battled within her, leaving her feeling both sweet and tortured.Luca, however, was unaware of Vanessa's inner turmoil.

Only one of you can leave here today. Will it be Vanessa or yourself?”Vanessa frowned and shouted, “Daxton, are you insane?!”This time, Daxton didn’t glance at Vanessa but fixed his gaze on Luca.Luca had anticipated that things wouldn’t be simple.

In this way? Daxton, do you realize this is kidnapping?

She couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off with him lately.Daxton glanced at Vanessa but didn’t say much. He only reminded her to rest well before leaving the hospital.As he pushed open the door to his home, the stark emptiness of the room was accentuated by the numerous photos lining the walls.Upon closer inspection, they were various pictures of Vanessa, many of which were clearly taken from hidden angles.Daxton stepped closer, gently tracing the images with his fingers, as if he were caressing Vanessa herself.

Ezra is indeed feeling unwell, and as parents, it’s only natural for us to be cautious. Why does it become us slandering you here?”Vanessa found this amusing. “Miss Langley, your ability to twist facts is truly impressive. However, there’s no need for your little act in front of me; I’m not falling for it.”Seeing Vanessa’s disdainful expression, Beatriz became even more irritated.
