Bianca widened her eyes and stared at the ceiling.Eler looked at the blank stare in her eyes and pitied her. She conveyed Shanks' instructions, "This is what Dr. Shanks specifically prescribed for you and it's very good for restoring your energy. You were sailing across the ocean for so many days and your body is very weak now. Besides, this tonic can alleviate all the side effects one would have during pregnancy."Still, Bianca did not move an inch as though she was petrified.Eler suddenly got down on her knees. "Miss, I'm begging you, please don't torture yourself. Or else, my little brother is going to be in deep trouble…"She was well aware that if the woman on the bed did not recover, her entire family would be in trouble. She did not mind being killed but her younger brother…Bianca shifted her eyes. She had heard all the threatening words Abel said to Eler earlier."I don’t even have the right to do anything now?” Her comments carried traces of sorrow.Eler shook her he
Percy placed both his arms in front of his chest and sighed. "We’ve finally arrived at our destination."Luke’s face appeared dark when he came down from the helicopter. He glanced at the abandoned land before him. Indeed, it was previously bombed till this state back during war times. After taking a glance around, no buildings were seen. It was just an inhabited and ordinary island.Ray frowned and looked at the empty land surrounding him. He could not believe that Bianca would be in such a place. "Can a person even survive here?"Luke was not willing to let go of even the slightest hope and just gave a simple statement to express his determination, "Begin the search."Percy and Ray exchanged looks with each other. "Alright, we’ll start searching."Ray retrieved a box from the helicopter. He opened it to reveal a bunch of weapons. "I wasn't sure whether there’d be anyone here but this is just a precaution."Percy chose a submachine gun and held it in his hands, fiddling with it.
Shanks threw the cigar on the floor and left the scene without turning around."Pfft." Abel turned around and ordered Eler, "Bring her to the control room.""Yes, Boss." Eler went over to lift Bianca.After these few days of torture, Bianca had yet to recover her energy. She allowed Eler to lift her."What are you doing?" She glared at Abel, her eyes glistening with hatred. She was unable to control her limbs and was being supported down the bed by Eler."Luke has arrived." Abel chuckled in a crazed manner and pointed above him. "He's just right up here."Bianca felt her legs become wobbly. 'Luke’s here!’ She glared at Abel. 'Is he planning to bring me up and threaten Luke?'"Luke will not be threatened by you." She exerted much force and freed herself from Eler.Deep down, Eler thought that if Abel did that, Bianca would just smash her head against the wall. She would definitely express her determination.Abel snorted and squinted his eyes. Eler was afraid of being blamed. Sh
The mercenary aside was fast to react and immediately caught hold of Bianca. He shook her, only to realize that she had passed out. "Miss!" Eler was so scared that she had broken out in a cold sweat. She quickly moved forward to check on Bianca. Fortunately, Bianca did not hit her head after falling.Abel turned around and saw Bianca, who had passed out. He frowned and lectured them, "Why are you still daydreaming here? Hurry and carry her back.""Yes, Boss." The mercenary quickly carried Bianca and walked out at a fast pace.Eler trailed behind the mercenary and softly reminded him, "Please be a little more gentle, don't hurt the miss."Abel snorted. He had thought highly of Bianca but never expected her to pass out after a small fright. He walked to Shanks' research lab and was leaning against the side of the door. The smell of medication came from inside the lab. He despised this smell and did not step a foot into the lab."What's wrong?" Shanks was researching a new drug a
In A City.After getting to the airport in Moscow, Luke and Percy flew back home since they did not gain any information from their search on the Island of Despair. It was already midnight when they got down from the plane.Percy knew Luke was having a hard time and tapped on his shoulder while saying, "Ray will constantly keep his eye on the Island of Despair. He’ll notify us once there’s news. While on my end, my underlings will continue the search.""Alright." Luke showed a cold expression. Regardless of everything, he would not give up the search. He carried his luggage, and along with Percy, they left the airport but through different exits.Luke turned on his phone and noticed he had tens of missed calls. They were all from Gordon. He called Gordon back.The call went through and Gordon asked, "You finally called me back.""What's up?" Luke dragged his luggage and headed out of the airport’s exit."I know you're busy looking for Bianca but we have some new progress on the
Luke shook his head and was able to understand his intentions. "I'll book flight tickets for tomorrow for all of you.""Bro…" Gordon put on a serious look. He sincerely wanted to stay back to help look for Bianca."You guys have been here for too long. We can't just ignore the issues in Russia," said Luke. Gordon had ditched all his work to come here just to repay the debt. If he did not return even after such a long time, things on the other side would have to be delayed.”Besides, Ray was still worried about Vivian."Let Faceless go back," said Gordon in a determined tone. Vivian was not a weak woman. After all, with a younger brother like Ray, she certainly had the ability to carry out her job well."No, I want to keep you company." Vivian immediately rejected him as she wanted to be wherever he was.Gordon frowned and looked at her. Just when he was about to lecture her for being immature, Luke said, "The two of you should go back.”"Bianca's case is much more urgent." Gordo
"What do you mean by that? I think dealing with it according to the standard procedure will be for the best. At least, no one will talk crap about it." Susan had been standing at the stairs for quite some time. She had overheard the conversation between the three people. She could not help but interrupt when she heard her son saying that."Mom…" Louis turned around to look. 'Why did she come downstairs?'After the previous incident, Thea grew paranoid and could no longer sleep on her own. She had to cling to Susan or Yuri before she could fall asleep. Tonight, it was supposed to be Susan's turn to accompany Thea to sleep."You shut your mouth!" Susan looked at him, disgruntled. If she had not heard Louis speaking up for Allison herself, she would not believe that her son would side with that woman.Louis obediently kept quiet, afraid she might cause havoc if she got mad.Susan walked over with wobbly steps. She had been feeling like she was on cloud nine when she learned that Alli
On the next day in T Corporation.Luke was handling some issues at work when Jason knocked on the door and entered. He said, "Boss, Miss Douglas is in the lobby downstairs. She said she needs to meet up with you regarding a very important issue.""Which Miss Douglas are you referring to?" Luke did not lift his head and was in the middle of a conversation with the people from the Middle East to clarify the death of Robert's foster son.Jason replied, "It's Madam's niece, the young lady from the capital."Luke knew who she was. He continued to type on the keyboard. He did not think much about it and immediately rejected it. "I'm not going to see her without an appointment.""Yes, sir." Jason knew what to do and left the office, closing the door behind him. The atmosphere in T Corporation was currently very tense because Luke was in a foul mood. No one dared to offend him.Upon returning to his office, Jason called the front desk and relayed Luke's message.Maxine was sitting on
