“No, you don’t. But someone around you can help you do this.” Abel gave Luca a hint. Luca was startled for a moment. She suddenly realized that the person Abel was talking about was Amur…“Can you not involve the innocent in this?!” Luca clenched her fists. She did not want Amur to be involved in this matter as this was not a good thing.“He decided to stay by your side, so he’s destined to be involved in this. I’ll send you the bank account number and password. You’ll deposit the money into that account after this. You know very well what you’ll face if you don’t complete the task,” said Abel. Luca did not say another word. She did not have the chance to reject Abel’s instructions…The silence on the other end of the phone made Abel feel smug. Abel grinned and said, “Do you think that you don’t have to accept the mission if you stop talking? Luca, keep this in your mind. You were destined to be my puppet three years ago. And stop thinking about finding a chance to escape!” Lu
Luke listened to the maid reporting to him about Luca’s whereabouts. He raised his hand and interrupted Gale while he was analyzing the situation. He asked the person on the other end of the phone, “Did she say what she’s up to?”“No, she didn’t tell me about the details. But it looks like it’s something serious. Oh, she even told me that she won’t be coming home for dinner if she can’t settle it,” the maid answered. “Okay.” Luke’s eyes darkened. He did not like the thought of Luca contacting Amur. Although Luca treated Amur like her little brother, Amur did not seem to see her as his elder sister. “Send me a message when she’s back home.”“Alright, Mr. Crawford.” Luke hung up the call after the maid said so.Gale was sitting with his legs crossed opposite Luke, and he deliberately asked, “Luke, haven’t you handled Sister-in-Law yet? And you’re still keeping an eye on her?” "This has nothing to do with you. All you have to do is to investigate the matter for me. It's up to y
Amur took his laptop out of his bedroom after that.Luca watched him sit down beside the dining table. He turned on his laptop and started looking for Dr. Albus’ personal information. She frowned slightly and asked, “This has nothing to do with you. Are you sure you want to help me?”After all, once Amur started, he would be dragged into this. “I told you before. Your matters are also my matters. Don’t worry, I’ll be careful. They won’t be able to capture my traces as long as I don’t leave any behind.” Amur comforted Luca. He was confident with his skills.“Alright.” Luca fell silent as she watched Amur open the software and start working. She took the documents that needed to be translated out of her briefcase and began translating.Amur glanced at her and asked, “What are you doing?”“Work documents. I have to translate them,” replied Luca. She forgot to bring her laptop with her when she came out just now. Hence, she could only look at the documents on the side and work on he
“Kassy refused to listen to orders when she was in prison. She was considered a dangerous inmate. Even though she was held in a single cell, she would still find different kinds of excuses to attack the others. That’s what’s written on the report by the prison,” said Amur. After Amur could not find the connection between Abel and Dr. Albus, it came to his mind that Abel was taking revenge on the people who were directly or indirectly related to Kassy. That was why he looked into something else. He did not expect that he would find out about this.“And then?” Luca did not understand how this woman would have any connection with Dr. Albus.Luca had seen Dr. Albus' personal information before. Dr. Albus was a great academic and a bio-research professor. He had published a few journals and developed several drugs. How could a person like that have anything to do with Kassy?"Her behavior put the prison officers on the spot. They even held a meeting and consulted the relevant departmen
"Alright." Amur agreed and looked at the tender look in her eyes. He was full of unwillingness. He was selfish and hoped that these unpleasant issues would be resolved as soon as possible.With that, he would be able to return to the Island of Despair with Luca. Even if their days there were unpleasant, they could at least free themselves from the troubles here.Luca did not realize that Amur had thought things through. After she was done comparing the documents, she then sent the maid a message, telling her that she would not be returning for dinner.The maid replied: [Alright, Ms. Luca.]Luca placed her phone down and ignored the message. She turned on the TV and watched it.After having dinner, it was already eight at night.Amur glanced at the scenery outside. It was pitch-black, and he was worried that it would be dangerous for Luca to return alone. He wanted to have her stay back. "It's getting late. Why don’t you just stay here for the night? I've always been sleeping in
Amur could not refute Jason's statement and could only watch Luca drive the car away.Jason could sense the abnormal aura coming off Amur and added, "Stop looking. They've gone far away."Amur looked at him. Even though Jason had not introduced himself, Amur knew who he was.'I think Luca had mentioned him before. It seems that he has helped her out numerous times in the past.'Hence, Amur did not plan to be petty and just turned around.Jason felt that this pair of siblings was interesting. This man always had a cold expression, but when he saw Luca, his eyes sparkled.It was just the same as Luke.Of course, he knew that Amur and Luca were not biological siblings. They just claimed to be siblings. They both came from the same organization.Hence, he knew the reason why Amur treated Luca in such a way and did not blame Luke for being hostile to this man.After getting to know that Luca was here, Luke quickly finished his work and headed straight there without even taking dinn
"It’s the truth. I saw that you have a dashcam in your car. It would have recorded our conversation.” Jason immediately made it clear that he was not being suspicious out of the blue.Even though he was on Luke's side, there was no need for him to frame someone he was not even familiar with. "I got it. Maybe he needed something. Thanks for telling me this." Luca expressed her gratitude. Even though she was clueless why Amur would do such a thing, she thought to herself that perhaps it was because she had been neglecting Amur recently. She was just too busy. Her feelings for Amur had always been that of siblings. Hence, as the elder sister, she had to show her concern for him. "I'm done." Luke's voice was heard coming from the bathroom.Jason touched his chin and asked, "Do you need my help, Dr. Craw?""It's alright. I can handle it myself." Luca shook her head and believed that Luke would not like it if others saw him in an embarrassing state. If it were not because using cr
Luca looked in the direction where Luke pointed when he lifted his head and noticed the chair placed in a corner.She went over and sat on that chair.Luke stared at her and frowned. 'Is she trying to make me angry on purpose?'The distance between us is more than three meters…’Luke said, "if you're going to sit so far away, how are you going to help me with the documents?"Luca blinked her eyes and got his hint. She immediately got up. She moved the chair to the side of the office table. After placing it down gently, she then sat on it again.Luke was satisfied as the distance between them was now less than a meter."Mr. Crawford, I don’t have experience dealing with documents.” Luca looked at the huge stack of documents on the table and spoke. It was not that she lacked the experience but it was that she was afraid she might not handle the task well as it had been quite some time since she last handled documents. "It's very easy. All you have to do is compare these document
