However, thinking from a different perspective, there was not much of her stuff here. It was unnecessary for her to use the maid's room, so naturally, she would not go in that often. Even though Luke's belongings were left here, it was not a big deal.At the thought of this, Luca walked to the table and pretended to ask inadvertently, “So, does that mean the people that Mr. Crawford sent won’t be coming today?”“Yes, I’ll be moving out after I tidy up all these. By the way, Ms. Craw, I bought some groceries for you when I went to the supermarket to get the bedding. They’re in the fridge. I’ve also put the receipts you requested in the plastic bag,” said the caretaker.“Alright, thank you.” Although Luca was not having a fever anymore, her body was still weak and she was fatigued. She was probably still going through the effects of the antidote. After all, it was the antidote that Abel had mixed something else in. Her body needed more time to recover.Now that the caretaker had bo
After making a simple lunch, Luca called the police station and asked if she was allowed to return to the apartment to pack her daily necessities. The policeman told her that he could only give her an answer after enquiring about it with his superior.Luca was aware the superior that they were talking about was probably Luke Crawford…Although the murderer had not been found, it was impossible that the apartment was shut off for such a long time. …The president’s office of T Corporation.Jason knocked on the door and entered the office before reporting, “Mr. Crawford, the police station just called. Dr. Craw called the police station and asked about wanting to go to the apartment.”Luke stopped typing on the keyboard and raised his eyebrows. “She wants to go to the apartment?” “Yes.” Jason nodded his head. “The police are asking for your opinion.”It was because Luke had a certain influence in City A, and he was considered as an involved party in Luca's case. Hence, the po
When the policeman heard it and realized that they might have missed out on a piece of important evidence, he took his phone out and looked for the photos of the scene. However, he was unable to find the grocery bag on the spot where Luca had fallen. He swiped backward, and finally, he found the grocery bag on the table. He handed it to Luca and said, "Is this the bag you've been talking about?""Yes, but obviously I was the one who carried it back home. How did it end up on the table?” Luca wanted to mislead the policeman and make him think that it was not her who placed the grocery bag on the table but the murderer.“We’ll find out about this.” Cold sweat was running down the policeman’s back. Based on what she said, the grocery bag must have been brought away by the murderer. Although it was strange for him to take the grocery bag and leave it on the table, it was still a bag that the murderer picked up. They seemed to have destroyed the evidence. It was just because the meat
Abel's hand was exploring her body restlessly as he lifted the corners of his lips. "What's the matter? Are you still in love with that man?"Hera chuckled and playfully pushed him gently. "'m just curious. You're still dealing with Luke after so many years. Is there some sort of resentment between the both of you?"“My hatred for him is higher than the sky and deeper than the sea. Do you want to know about it?” Abel asked softly as he leaned over to her neck like a dangerous serpent.Hera shivered for a moment, but she could not suppress her curiosity. “Tell me about it, will you?”Abel drew his hand away and stood up with extreme hatred and coldness on his face. “You shouldn’t have asked.”He resented Luke Crawford for taking his loved ones away, for his father’s death, and for destroying his family. After all those things that had happened between Luke and him, one of them was bound to die. However, he wanted Luke to have a taste of bitter anguish before he sent him to his de
Luca reminded her of something, and Zoey said immediately, "Oh, previously, Mr. Doyle sent a message saying that when you came back to work, you should go to the president's office. Mr. Crawford would want to see you.” Luke was looking for her…Luca nodded and put down the data that she was carrying. She took off her lab coat. “I’ll go now.”“Alright. Dr. Craw. Allow me to get you a cup of coffee?” Zoey asked enthusiastically. After all, her boss was still recovering. They, as subordinates, did not even pay her a visit after she got injured. Although Luca looked like she did not mind, Zoey would still want to fawn over her a little. “There’s no need. I can’t drink coffee now,” Luca said as she walked out and closed the office door in passing.Even though her wounds had healed, there were still some scabs. Drinking coffee would cause skin pigmentation. Realizing how careless she was, Zoey apologized hurriedly, “I’m sorry, Dr. Craw. I failed to think about that.” “It’s alright
Luca knew Tia's abilities were true. They were not just a bluff.If she accepted Tia’s therapy, what if she used something like hypnosis? Luca would probably tell her everything she knew.She dared not to do that.Previously, the experience of being hypnotized at the venue was still vivid. If it had not been for the noisy environment, she probably would not have been able to wake up that quickly. If she had continued to talk, she would have been on the verge of exposing herself!Therefore, Luca was unwilling to take the risk.When Tia heard that Luca was strongly opposed to the idea, her previous feelings of unwillingness to help Luca turned into an uncomfortable sensation.What Luca meant was that she was good at emotional management, so she did not need anyone’s help? Tia thought in her heart, ‘Knowing the enemy will help me win every battle.’After anyone encountered a traumatic event, they would develop post-traumatic stress disorder. It was only a matter of time before th
Tia’s words were stuck in her throat.Luke would have to attend a meeting in five minutes, which meant if she wanted to appear as an understanding person, she had to take the initiative to leave.“Sure,” replied Luke.Tia rose as well and said, "Mr. Crawford, since you have things to do, then I'll leave first.""Oh, sorry to be troubling you with Dr. Craw’s affair,” Luke mentioned Luca again, and he seemed to be very considerate toward her.Tia was inwardly upset. He invited her over today yet every word that came out of his mouth was about Luca. She was just someone who came to help. It made her feel like an outsider. She was in love with Luke, and needless to say, this sort of situation would naturally upset her."It's not too much trouble. From what I see, Dr. Craw's situation seems to be quite serious. I'd love to help if possible. Then I can write in it my lesson plan," said Tia. She was a part-time psychology professor at A University. "Sure." Luke did not say anything
There was fear in Nina’s voice. Luca could not just sit idly by.She glanced at the laboratory and made a decision at that moment. She walked toward the office. "Don't open the door first and block it with the cabinet. Wait for me."When Nina knew Luca was coming, she felt calmer. However, Perrie was no angel. A thought came into her mind and she said worriedly, “No, don’t come over. I’ll barricade the door with the cabinet first. If he can’t get in, he’ll probably stop after a while.” Perrie Mallory was the second young master of the Mallory family. Only a few in A City were able to deal with him, so she dared not to call the police either.It was because she knew that when the police heard it was Perrie, they would certainly leave him alone. They might even think of a way to open the door for him and welcome Perrie in. Luca would probably fight with Perrie if she came here.Nina did not want her best friend to get into trouble because of her, so she stopped Luca after she tho
