Chapter 1740 Intercepted

Author: Heap Heap
Jean took a sip of his cocktail and was in a good mood because he finally had a chance to get closer to Luca. "Yeah, she’s still in A City."

"I’m happy to hear that she's fine." Luca acted relieved.

The drinks were getting to his head. Jean looked at Luca with eyes full of fascination.

Luca was beautiful. She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. All the conditions at that moment were excellent, so he knew he had to grasp the opportunity. "Come, cheers!"

Jean ordered another cocktail for her. Although his plan was deplorable, he had to do it to win over Luca. If he had some blackmail material, someone like Luca would have to obey him.

Luca took a sip of the cocktail.

Jean was satisfied. He was surprised at how submissive she was.

"Don't stress about it. Nina is not a child. She’s fine. There’s nothing to worry about." He comforted her.

Luca looked at Jean. He made it seem as though he knew everything about Nina. She felt confident and held her chin.

The move was a sig

    Luke was disdainful because of Luca's interaction with Jean.Rain saw everything clearly, and she reported to Luke without missing a single detail.That was why his expression was ugly.Luca sat up straight and put on her seatbelt."You don't have anything to say?" Luke asked.Luca wondered what was there to say. ‘Am I supposed to tell him what I discovered?’She nodded and said quickly, "After talking to Jean, I'm sure that Nina is in Pierre's hands and she shouldn’t be in any danger now. We can focus on investigating Pierre. We can start with—”Luke interrupted her and said coldly, "Rains is aware of all that you mentioned. She’s taking action now."Luca was astounded, nodded, and said in a neutral tone, "Oh."Luke was infuriated when he thought of how Jean took advantage of Luca. He stopped talking, stepped on the accelerator, and drove off.Luca could tell that he was speeding and pursed her lips. Even if he did not say anything, she could tell that he was fuming.When L

    "Can you sleep?" Luke leaned against the door and stared at her.Luca rubbed her eyes, pretended to be sleepy, and said, "Mr. Crawford, I'm very tired now and want to go to bed."Luke did not expose her. Since she did not want to talk to him, he decided to be forceful. He walked into the bedroom and sat on the sofa."Mr. Crawford?" Luca was shocked by his actions. ‘Is he going to stay here tonight?’Luke's slender legs were crossed, and he found a comfortable position. Luca drank a lot of alcohol, so even after she washed up, he could still smell the faint alcohol smell in the air.It did not smell bad since it was blended with her body's special scent...On the contrary, he was even a little tempted."There's something I want to talk to you about," Luke said. After he debated internally for half an hour, he decided that he could not let Luca escape from the truth any longer.The fact that she flirted with Jean had stimulated his nerves. He could not stand it even though he kne

    After Luke talked to Luca, he fell asleep easily.After a dreamless night, he woke up to find that Luca had left the apartment.He raised his eyebrows when he saw the breakfast on the table. Luca did not usually make these dishes. Sometimes, when they were in a rush or if the prepared breakfast could not be eaten in time, she would make these dishes.Luke touched the toasted bread with his hand and found that it was cold. It seemed that it had been on the table for a while."What an ostrich." He looked at the breakfast prepared for him and commented in a soft voice. He felt relieved that he had laid it all out on the table. No matter how much Luca wanted to run away, she would not escape from his palm.No matter if she was Bianca or Luca, she was the love of his life.Luke glanced at the time. He was not going back to the office that morning because today was the day Allison would get out of jail.Even though he had only visited her a handful of times in the past few years, he h

    Allison watched arrogantly as they welcomed her. She was discontented. The maids calling her ‘Madam Allison’ reminded her that Susan was inside the manor, ready for a fight.Although the maids did not dare to look up at her face, she knew Susan must be waiting to make fun of her.Allison lowered the brim of her hat and said to Luke, "Come on. Walk in with me."Within the family, the only one she could rely on at that moment was Luke.Luke stayed silent when he saw that she did not dare to take a step forward. He made a gesture to the butler and walked in with her.The butler got the hint and dismissed the maids who were involved in the welcoming ceremony.Crawford Manor’s living room.Susan sat on the sofa. She held a cup of floral tea, drinking from it elegantly. She looked at the woman walking in, smiled, and said, "I was wondering why the butler brought all the maids together. It turns out that you’re released from prison today."Allison glanced coldly in her direction, kept

    In the study.Old Master Crawford watched Luke light the incense, then looked out the window. His eyes were cloudy. He seemed to have a lot on his mind.Luke closed the lid and said, "Grandpa, if you have something to say, just say it.""Is your mother's face incurable?" Old Master Crawford knew that Luke had arranged for a doctor to go to prison to check on Allison but he never asked about it. After he saw Allison wrapping herself up like that, he knew that the treatment was not working as well as she hoped."The wrinkles on her face are permanent and irreversible," Luke said.Old Master Crawford sighed. He knew that it was Allison's fault and she had no one to blame but herself. However, she would bring embarrassment to the Crawford family if she insisted on going out in public.He said, "This home is not peaceful, and it’s not good for the physical and mental health of the kids. If you want, you can move out with the kids and only bring them back to accompany me during the hol

    The more Susan thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. She muttered, "No, I'm going to ask Louis about this. He’s so unsensible. What’s wrong with staying here? Why does he want to move out?"The butler watched her leave in a hurry and shook his head helplessly.Louis was the kind of person who did not fight for anything. It was normal for him to want to move out after being forced by her to fight for everything every day....After Luke arrived at the office, he immediately asked Jason to schedule a meeting.The entire management team was expected to be present, including Luca.After she received the news, Luca packed up the materials she needed for the meeting. As she carried her laptop, she suddenly thought of what Luke had said last night…This morning, she ran away and left like an ostrich. However, she knew that she would have to face him sooner or later...It was what it was. Although she had to deal with Luke because of work, she still felt uncomfo

    They stopped talking as soon as Jason walked in.Jason glanced at the seat next to the CEO’s and did not see Luca. He frowned and asked, "Where's Dr. Craw? She’s not here yet?""She's helping Tina make coffee." The executive who led the conversation about Luca earlier replied.Jason nodded. It was not Luca's job to make coffee but he did not say anything. He reminded them, "Get ready. The meeting is about to start. Mr. Crawford’s hands are full, so try to simplify things as much as possible when you present later. Focus on key points so that you can save yours and other people’s time.”"Yes, Mr. Doyle." The executives knew how strict Luke was with work and agreed readily.Luca and Tina walked in with the coffee. When Jason saw them, he immediately stepped forward and picked up two cups of coffee. "Tina can handle this. Dr. Craw, you'd better take your seat.""Yeah, Dr. Craw," Tina said.The executives listened to what Jason said and sighed secretly in their hearts. From his atti

    Luke noticed the laptop in his hands and frowned. “Is this Luca’s laptop?”“Yes, Boss. This is Dr. Craw’s laptop. There’s only half an hour left ‘til their lunch break ends, so I told them to go have their lunch first and I’ll bring their laptops back,” Jason explained.Luke’s frown deepened. Would that make Luca think that he was an inconsiderate person while Jason was an understanding person? Jason looked at Luke’s expression. He could not help but wonder and asked, “What’s the matter, Boss?”Luke said in a cold voice, “Well, you sure know how to please others.” He grabbed Luca’s laptop from him. “Is there anything else that belongs to her?” Jason quickly handed two folders to him and said, “These belong to Dr. Craw…”Jason dared not to keep anything as he realized the extent of his boss’ possessiveness over Luca…Luke took them from him and asked, “Where’s my lunch?”“I’ve already placed the order this morning. It should be on the way here now,” answered Jason. As Luke’s

    The volunteer did not mind. As long as it meant he could recover, he was willing to endure any pain. “It's okay. I can handle it.”Luca nodded.The door to the vehicle opened, and a man stepped inside. Due to the lack of sterilization, he did not dare approach the inner part of the vehicle. Instead, he placed several bottles of saline on the outside.“This is the saline that Mr. Shanks prepared. He asked you to inject it when you can,” the man relayed Shanks' message.“Got it.” Luca reached out to take the bottles. After thoroughly disinfecting them, she brought them inside.It was more complicated than being in a hospital.Since the volunteer's body was still weak. They had to maintain as sterile an environment as possible.However, it still fell short of the ICU's standard.Luca stayed with the volunteer until evening. Gerald stood outside the medical vehicle and called, “Ms. Craw, it's time for dinner.”Luca took off her protective gear and stepped outside.“Ms. Craw, di

    “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
