Chapter 1656 He Was Insistent

Author: Heap Heap
After Luke put her things in the boot, he got into the car.

He glanced at Luca. She was silent as if deep in thought about something.

Luke wondered if what he said before had scared her.

However, Luca did not seem like the kind of person who would be scared easily. He asked, "What are you thinking about? You look worried."

Luca shook her head, indicating that she was fine.

Luke knew that she was full of worries but he had no way of knowing since she refused to share with him.

Luke drove back to the apartment and did not stop the car even when he arrived at the gate of the community. He swiped his card and drove in.

Luca looked at him but did not say anything about him sending her to her home.

No one could stop Luke from doing what he wanted to do, including her former self. She had been long accustomed to his forcefulness.

She watched him drive all the way there and park in the parking space.

Luca thought about saying something. "Mr. Crawford, thanks for driving me back. I'll

    Luca agreed, and the topic ended.There was another round of silence at the dining table.Luca raised her gaze and sneaked a glance at Luke, who was holding a piece of meat that was soft and shredded after being cooked for a while. He was not frowning.In the past, he disliked soft foods as such. It was impossible that Mrs. Nancy did not know his preferences. It was likely that he ordered Mrs. Nancy to cook the food like this so that it was easy for her to chew.Luca looked at the soft dishes on the table and asked, "Mr. Crawford, I assume these meals are not to your taste..."Luke looked up, his eyes carrying an emotion that she could not understand. "You know my taste?"Luca was startled and quickly said, "These foods are too soft. I think your teeth are so good that you probably don't like soft foods. Shall I cook a dish for you?"Luke listened to her concern. It was obvious that she paid a lot of attention to him but she deliberately kept a distance and even thought about ho

    Luca remembered her work in the laboratory after she sent a friend request to the cleaning lady. So far, she had not received any messages from Rhett. She presumed that it must be Luke’s orders. Luca took the initiative to send a message to Rhett to ask him about the situation in the laboratory.Rhett responded quickly to her message. He told her that the experiments going on in the laboratory were going on as scheduled. They were ready to apply for a clinical trial now. Luca looked at Rhett's simple response. It was as though he was afraid of disturbing her if he typed a few more words. She shook her head, and the phone screen turned dim. She looked at her reflection on the screen. It was blurry, but she could see that her face was swollen.She let out a sigh. She still could not go back to work even though she thought she was fine now.She would at least have to wait for the swelling and pain on her face to subside completely. Only then would Luke allow her to return to th

    The cleaning lady was wearing gloves and an apron. With a smile, she said, “Ms. Craw, I’ve finished cleaning up the apartment. And I’ve already put the fruits in the fridge. Is there anything I need to do?” "No, you can leave now," Luca replied coldly. She glanced at the living room. It had indeed been cleaned and tidied up. “Alright. Then, I’ll leave first.” The cleaning lady took off her gloves and apron after she finished her work. She turned around and left after putting them back in place. Luca picked up the sample and put it into an impenetrable sealed bag. Then, she put it in the disinfection cabinet. She did not have as many equipments as in the laboratory. Hence, she could only use these home appliances to do her research. After all, she could not bring these to the laboratory. After Luca handled everything, she went to take the clams that the cleaning lady had cleaned out of the fridge. She took some out, planning to make a pot of clam chowder as a side dish to have

    After Luke left, it did not take long before Luca pulled herself together. She had something more important to do.She could only fix her passive stance in this situation if she could develop the antidote. It felt uncomfortable to be under someone else’s control.The Island of Despair was powerful in both manpower and financial resources. It was because the members were under the drug’s control.If there was an antidote, the Island of Despair would break apart once the members were given the antidote.Luca became even more determined to study and develop the antidote at the thought of this. She took the sample out of the disinfection cabinet. The sample that she took from the straw did not disappoint her. The concentration was high enough. The next thing she needed to do was analyze the composition of it. Then, she would be able to develop the antidote. Luca sat on the lab table and did her research quietly. She stopped her research and talked to Tommy for a while when Tommy

    “I was deep asleep last night. I didn’t know you were here.” It was after that Luca realized how contradicting her words were. Then, she said, “I saw the thermos bottle on the coffee table this morning. That’s why I know you were here.”Luke did not expose her and continued to eat his breakfast. After breakfast, Luca still had no idea where he was bringing her to. Hence, she changed into an elegant dress that was not too casual. She put on light makeup before leaving together with him. Luke was driving while Luca was listening carefully to the morning news broadcast.Her expression darkened when she heard the news about Pierre. Obviously, she would not have a pleasant expression on her face when she heard about Pierre. After all, she could not forgive someone who had hurt her before.Luke was listening too. The news broadcast was introducing Pierre’s company, and some of the experts even predicted that Pierre's company would have great prospects. It even had better development t

    Luca shot a glance at Luke.He made an inviting gesture. She turned her head and walked into the villa.The villa was not big, but it was furnished delicately. It was enough for the two of them to live here.Luca looked at the front yard that was planted with the flowers that Wanda loved. She could also see some fruits and vegetables planted in the backyard. She turned her head and glanced at Luke. She was grateful for what he had done for the Rayne family.Wanda could never afford to buy such a small villa. It must be Luke who bought the small villa for them. She was no longer around, but he still treated her family kindly. Both of them walked into the living room together. Luke had informed Wanda yesterday that he would be bringing someone here to check on the old man’s health. Hence, she started preparing delicacies from early in the morning.Wanda smiled while looking at them, but she was startled for a moment she saw Luca. She thought Luke would bring an old expert he

    Wanda blinked her eyes. She refused to believe what Luca said. Could taking some herbal medicine help recover Old Man Rayne’s health.This was way too iffy for her…She asked, “Will my dad be physically stronger after taking the herbal medicine? But we’ve visited several doctors throughout the years, and we even went to see the specialists in Japan. All of them told us that he’s suffering from a chronic illness, and there’s no cure for this. He can only take some medicine to alleviate the symptoms. It can’t be healed.”“Indeed, his illness can’t be healed, but my prescription will make Old Man Rayne feel much better,” replied Luca. She did not blame Wanda for doubting her.The medical knowledge that Shanks taught her was abundant, and most of it could not be found or learned in the medical schools out there.Some of the prescriptions could not be obtained from the market today, so many had no idea how good the effects were. Moreover, many people swindled money from patients in t

    The maid walked to the backyard and saw Luca pressing on her chest as though she was feeling uncomfortable. She asked, "Ms. Craw, are you alright? Are you feeling unwell?"“I’m fine,” Luca replied. She looked at the maid and smiled, then noticed that she was carrying a basket. There were some fresh tomatoes as well as other fruits and vegetables that were currently in season. She asked, “Are these planted in the backyard?”“Yes. Ms. Rayne is usually free, so she’d plant some flowers in the front yard and fruits and vegetables in the backyard. Look at how fresh the vegetables are. These were all planted by her. No pesticides were added. They’re safe and healthy to eat,” replied the maid while showing the fruits and vegetables in the basket to Luca.Luca asked, "Can I take a look at the backyard?"“You’re the guest. Make yourself at home. But there’s a pond in the backyard, so do be careful. Don’t fall in,” the maid reminded her.Luca nodded and headed to the backyard.There were a

    “Don’t worry, it won’t affect you in the slightest,” said Abel.The villa was bought under Shanks’ name.So while it appeared to be the Island of Despair’s property, it was, in fact, Shanks’ personal asset.Abel shot a glance at his subordinates, who stood beside him. Without hesitation, they grabbed the doctor and hauled him away.As Hera watched the scene unfold, she felt a sudden pang of unease. She was well aware of Abel's methods. Punishment was never off the table. However, seeing the way things were unfolding, Hera could not shake the feeling that Abel might actually take the doctor’s life.Still, they were in A City, a country with strict laws. Would Abel really go that far?As Abel turned to leave, Hera said almost nervously, “Darling…”“I have some matters to take care of. Be good and stay here. Don’t wander around, okay?” Abel’s mood was apparently lifted by the successful surgery. His voice was unexpectedly gentle.Hera’s unease only deepened. She grabbed the slee

    All three of them stepped out of the vehicle.Hera realized that the surgery might already be over and could not wait to hear the results.Abel, equally eager, immediately asked as soon as he saw them, “Is the surgery finished?”“Yes, the surgery was successful. The transplant was completed, and all the nerves we could connect have been repaired. Now, it’s up to the follow-up treatment,” answered Shanks.The doctor who had been kicked out earlier stared in disbelief.They actually succeeded in the transplant? How was that even possible?“Great, fantastic!” Abel let out a sigh of relief before bursting into laughter.What had seemed impossible in modern medicine had achieved a different outcome in Shanks’ hands.Unlike others who might celebrate the medical breakthrough, Abel’s joy came from a more personal place—Kassy would soon return to his side. His delight was unmistakable.“T-This can’t be!” muttered the dismissed doctor, who was still in shock. “A surgery this revoluti

    After returning to her room, Luca told Luke about the surgery that day.She explained that she had not been able to participate in the operation and was uncertain if Abel would prevent her from being involved in the future. If she was not allowed to take part, she might lose her excuse to stay here. Also, she would not be able to help with what was to come.Luke replied to her message quickly, assuring her that everything was already planned out and she did not need to worry.Luca frowned slightly as she read his message. She wanted to ask about his plan but hesitated for a moment and decided against it. Knowing too much about Luke's men might backfire.Luca deleted their chat history but soon received another message from him.He told her that T Corporation had successfully won the bid and that he had already found someone to replace Lucius’ role.Luca let out a sigh of relief. Finding a replacement for Lucius meant that he was out of danger for now. The worry that had been we

    However, Abel was not fooled by her words.He asked again, “Who are you looking for?”“Oh, I'm looking for Gerald. I've noticed that most people are here, but Gerald is missing, so I was just curious,” Hera replied honestly, knowing that Abel was naturally suspicious.“I’m starting to feel like you’ve become quite close with Gerald recently,” Abel asked suspiciously.Hera froze for a moment, then laughed and explained, “I often ask him to help with little things. He might not have many qualities, but he’s pretty diligent.”Abel did not respond right away, as though he was considering her words carefully.Hera lowered her voice and teased, “What's the matter? Are you jealous?”Before he could answer, she quickly added, “You’re so outstanding. How could I ever be interested in some ordinary man?”As soon as she said that, a flicker of unease crossed her mind.Abel was far superior to Lucius in looks and wealth. However, she seemed to be more drawn to Lucius.Despite her actions

    For Shanks, no matter how skilled the two ophthalmologists were, they could not compare to Luca. The key was their smooth coordination. They were used to working together. If it were other doctors, they would probably start asking questions once they entered the operating room, making it impossible for Shanks to focus and perform the surgery calmly.Shanks believed this was a groundbreaking procedure, not just another teaching surgery for ophthalmologists.Abel understood Shanks’ concerns, but he still insisted, “They’re not just any doctors. They’ve signed agreements, and they won’t interrupt you with questions during the surgery. They’ll cooperate fully.”As Luca listened to Abel, she realized what he was really worried about. Besides the risk of the surgery failing, he was not confident in her.This surgery was important, and Abel was worried she might sabotage it in the operating room.Shanks furrowed his brows and looked at Luca.Luca gave him a faint smile. Whether or not

    As Gerald shook his head furiously, it was not difficult for Luca to figure out what was going on.She glanced at Hera's irritation and figured it all stemmed from Luke being reassigned. Not being able to see him was clearly driving her to act like this.Luca secretly let out a sigh. They said women were the cause of trouble, but honestly, men could just be the same.Even with Luke disguised as an ordinary man, his cold and commanding air still captivated Hera.She glanced at the bowl nearby. The food Gerald brought Hera was barely touched.It seemed like she was so consumed with thoughts of Luke that she had lost her appetite...Luca’s expression remained unchanged. She was long accustomed to keeping her emotions in check around others.“Ms. Sanchez, you’ve misunderstood. I’m not close with Mr. Lucius, so I don’t have his contact information.” Luca kept her face impassive.“You’re lying!” Hera narrowed her eyes suspiciously. “You’re so close to him. How could you not have it?”

    As soon as Luca returned to her bedroom after dinner, she received a video call request from the kids.It had been a long time since she last saw them. When she saw the call request, she locked the door, put on her headphones, and immediately answered.“Ms. Luca!” As soon as the call connected, the faces of all three kids appeared on the phone screen.“Sweethearts!” Luca blew them a kiss.“Ms. Luca, we miss you so much!” Tommy was the first to express how much they missed Luca.Luca's heart stirred with waves of longing when she heard them. She had been so busy recently, hoping to finish everything here quickly so that she and Luke could reunite with the kids. That was why she had not contacted them much.Plus, with Old Master Crawford taking care of them, she felt at ease.Now that Luca saw the faces of the three kids, her longing for them instantly surged and overwhelmed her.Her eyes reddened. “I miss you all so much too.”Rainie, always the thoughtful one, noticed her em

    The men in the room were wincing in pain, but when they heard Gerald’s words, they were so furious they almost wanted to lash out at him. However, all their strength had been sapped by the excruciating pain, so they could only groan helplessly.As Shanks made his way upstairs, he paused halfway up the staircase and asked, “Is Luca cooking?”Gerald glanced at the kitchen and replied, “Yes, Mr. Shanks. It’s their fault. Ms. Craw was delayed in making dinner because of them.”Shanks' expression remained unchanged as he simply said, “Let me know when it's ready.”“Yes,” answered Gerald.After Shanks went upstairs, Gerald hesitated for a moment but decided to help the men to their feet, placing them one by one on the couch or chairs. As they slouched, groaning in pain, Gerald shook his head. “Do you guys now understand what happens when you mess with the wrong woman, especially Ms. Craw?”One of the men winced and asked, “Why did she have to be so brutal when throwing down?”“She

    Lucius was different.He did not care about getting close to anyone, whether man or woman. Even when Hera’s attempts to seduce him were blatantly obvious, he still remained unmoved and even showed signs of rejection.Gerald could not help but marvel at Luca’s sharp observations and incisive remarks. He could not help but clap his hands lightly, genuinely impressed.“Lucius truly is exceptional,” said Gerald.Luca came downstairs.When she took the last step off the stairs, the men in the living room immediately fell silent.They held their breath as they watched the woman in front of them. Her hair was straight, not like their boss' companion.The men's gazes grew intense.Luca’s expression darkened.Gerald stood beside her and said, “See, I told you—you’re like a piece of meat dropped into a pack of wolves. Be careful.”One of the men heard Gerald and asked unhappily, “Hey, kid, what are you saying? What wolves? We’re gentlemen. We’d never dream of doing anything inappropr
