Chapter 2100 Scapegoat

Author: Heap Heap
Pierre finally understood why Percy chose to stand on Luke's side even in front of Old Master Mallory.

That was because Luke had left his logo on the design draft.

Luke had seen the contents of the bidding document in M Group, so Pierre was certain that Luke had plotted against them and made sure that his employees would not notice what he did.

Although Luke did not intend to go after him, he got looped into it.

‘Damn that Abel! He deceived me twice in a row, and now, he has caused me so much trouble!’

Pierre put on his coat. He knew he could not do anything to Abel.

He did know what organization Abel led. The phone number Abel gave him was no longer valid, so he could not get in contact with Abel. There was only one way to find him...

"What are you thinking about? Hurry up and go downstairs. When you apologize later, you should be more sincere and blame it on someone in the company. Tell Old Master Crawford that you don't know anything, but since you’re the boss of the company,

    Madam Mallory was not as nervous as Pierre upon hearing the news. "There’ll always be someone willing to step up if you offer enough money.""I don't have that much cash on hand now," Pierre confessed. He had already lost a lot of money to his business partners because of the closure of many industries. On top of that, he bought a bidding document from Abel and placed an order to assassinate Luke.He did not have much money on his hands now.If there was no one to help him, he would have to use the company's cash. However, at this stage, he did not need to do so.Pierre knew that Madam Mallory would not let him stoop so low."Don't worry. Go look for someone and tell me how much you need." Madam Mallory said exactly what Pierre thought she would.Madam Mallory's response was within Pierre's expectations."I'll find a scapegoat." Pierre nodded. Although the latest development was beyond what he expected, it was not impossible to solve with Madam Mallory's help.On the other hand

    "Daddy, why don't you team up with me?" Rainie invited him.Since Luke did not know how to play the game, Lanie and Tommy would likely take the opportunity to bully him.Rainie wanted to help him to maintain a good image in front of their mommy."Okay." Luke agreed to his daughter's invitation and sat next to Rainie.Tommy liked this kind of warm parent-child time. He touched the dice and said, "Daddy, Rainie, let's start the game."Luca glanced at Luke. She did not expect him to skip work so that he could play such a boring game with the kids.Sure enough, he was a good father.He cared so much about the children. No matter what happened in the future, she felt at ease leaving them to him."Okay." Luca went along with the children's wishes.Tommy threw the dice and started the game.With Rainie's help, Luke played for one round and understood how to play the game.An hour later, Tommy pouted and said, "I don’t want to play anymore. Daddy is bullying me!""Is that so?" Luke

    Luke and Luca walked beside Queenie, and they walked into the house together.Luke glanced around and found that Jack was not there. "Mother-in-law, where’s Jack?""He’s still at the provincial office as he has a meeting today. He’ll come back a little later. Ten minutes ago, he said he was ready to leave and mentioned that he would get a bottle of wine. He wants to drink with you tonight. Don't just stand here. Come sit and drink some tea to warm your body." Queenie said with a smile as she got them to sit down."Father-in-law has been busy. How is his health?" Luke asked, concerned. He was sitting across from Queenie."He’s been busy. There seem to be a lot of meetings going on recently, and he often comes back late. It’s considered early for him to come back at this time today," Queenie said as she made them tea.Jack was occupied likely because there was a new project in the province, or he was attending to the inspection officers from the central government.There was no new

    "Father-in-law." Luke nodded at him.Luca also greeted Jack, "Hello, Uncle Jack. Long time no see.""It's been a long time, Luca. If you're free, come visit me and your Aunt Queenie more often," Jack said. He knew there was a reason why Luca did not visit often.Luke had told him about what happened to her in Russia.As such, Jack knew that Luca was in danger all the time and could not acknowledge him and Queenie as her biological parents for some reason."Okay." Luca finished writing and handed the paper to the maid. "There you go.""What's that?" When he saw that, Jack put down his briefcase and sat down near Luca."It's a few recipes for your diet and a prescription for Aunt Queenie to condition her body," Luca replied."Condition her body? What's wrong?" Jack became nervous. He and Luke asked Luca to come over to check on Queenie's pulse as an excuse. He did not expect that something would be wrong with Queenie’s body."It's nothing. I’ve been having a lot of dreams when I

    Queenie did not know what was going on. She just felt that Luca’s words brought her comfort and melted all her anxiety."Bea isn't by my side anymore. I just hope Leia can get better soon." She could not help but sigh. Queenie got a headache thinking that Leia might be hospitalized.What Leia hated most was the hospital. She would not stay even if she was in a luxurious single ward.There were a lot of people in the hospital, and Leia was a famous star. She was worried that if someone saw Leia in the hospital and told Luke...Luca listened to Queenie's sigh and felt even guiltier.‘I'm sorry, Mom…’All she could do was apologize to Queenie in her heart...Upstairs, in Jack's study.Luke followed him in and closed the door."The government does intend to develop the abandoned amusement park in the western suburbs, but there are no specifics for now," Jack said."After so many years of the rumor going around, the government is finally taking action." Luke could not help but sig

    Queenie sat at the dinner table and looked at Jack suspiciously. "Why are you so happy? Did something good happen?""I’m just happy to see my son-in-law," Jack mentioned Luke deliberately.Queenie smiled helplessly as she shook her head."What? Aren't you happy?" Jack asked."I'm happy, but the kids aren’t here. I miss them," Queenie said. She had not mentioned the children, but she missed them a lot."Sorry, Mother-in-law." Luke apologized when he heard what she said. "I didn't bring the kids here because I needed to talk to Jack. I'll bring them over when they’re on holiday."Queenie nodded with a smile and replied, "Okay.""Where are the kids now?" Jack asked, concerned."They're at Crawford Manor," Luke replied. He saw the maid walk over with a bottle of wine, it was high in alcohol content."It's nice that Old Master Crawford is watching them," Jack nodded.Queenie sighed and said, "How is it nice? Old Master Crawford needs to rest, and the children would be making a lot

    After the car was parked, Luke opened his eyes slightly and muttered, "Are we there yet?""We’re here, Mr. Crawford. Can you get out of the car by yourself?" Luca asked. He had been drinking, so she was not sure if he would be able to walk on his own."If I can't, will you let me sleep in the car for the night?" Luke sat there and did not move. He was half-squinting looking at Luca's side profile."No." Luca unbuckled his seat belt. "I'll help you get in.""No need." Luke sat up straight, unbuckled his seatbelt, opened the door, and got out of the car.Luca frowned slightly. She was worried that he would fall, so she followed closely behind him as he walked into the living room.Aunt Neile was off work, so the villa did not have a single light on.When Luke was about to walk forward, Luca stepped over the threshold and whispered, "Mr. Crawford, I'll turn on the lights first."Luke stopped and propped himself against the wall.Luca stood at the entrance and found the switch.

    Luca secretly let out a sigh.Luke was obviously drunk. How could a tough person like him bring up his embarrassing past if he was not drunk? When she was still Bianca back then, she had never seen the other side of him when he showed his weaknesses. "I always wondered what kind of person I would be today if Louis were born earlier," Luke said in a low voice.Previously, Susan was unable to get pregnant, and that was when Allison brought Luke back from the orphanage. She brought him to meet Old Master Crawford to acknowledge him as his grandfather.Luke would never have returned to the Crawford family if Louis had already been born.Luke would have grown up in the orphanage without knowing who his parents were and why he was abandoned and left at the orphanage. Perhaps he would have been adopted by someone else and grown up in an unfamiliar family. He would not have known anything about his family. "You would’ve become a successful man even if you weren’t in the Crawford fa

    “Wait a little longer. By the way, what kind of ancestral hall is this?” asked Hera.“It's a local family's ancestral hall. I heard it's been designed by the owner of a large company, and now it's also one of the tourist attractions.” The taxi driver was not from around here, so he did not know all the details, but he knew it had become a popular spot. “Now, thanks to the reputation of that boss, many architects come here as one of their reference points.”Hera frowned deeper. What was Luca doing here?The driver suggested, “If you're interested in sightseeing, the attractions inside are pretty good. But for outsiders, they charge an entrance fee. Maintenance costs a lot of money, so they charge tourists from outside.”“I'm not here for sightseeing,” replied Hera, “Don't worry. I'll pay you for however long I stay here. You’ll get your money.”The driver heard that she was paying, and did not press her further and remained quiet.Hera stared at the entrance of the ancestral hall,

    Hera let out a cold sneer, feeling that Gerald's apology was not sincere.Hera did not want to press the issue at the moment. She gave him a sharp look. “Come with me.”Gerald knew that Hera was up to something again. If it were a normal order, she would have just said it in the living room. Whenever she called him aside, it meant whatever she had to say could not be overheard by others.Reluctantly, Gerald followed her out.It was midday, and as soon as Hera stepped out of the living room, a wave of heat hit her face.The intense warmth made her feel uncomfortable.Hera got straight to the point, turning to Gerald. “What did Luca say to you just now?”“She just asked me to help keep an eye on the volunteer,” Gerald answered honestly. This was not something that needed to be kept secret.Hera frowned. “Is she going out”Gerald hesitated for a moment, unsure whether to say anything.“I’m talking to you, not the wall. Are you mute?” Hera threatened. “If you lie to me, I’ll te

    Gordan was puzzled. At most, it was just brotherly camaraderie. After all, they had been through thick and thin together. Their bond might be stronger than usual, but falling in love? That was a bit of a stretch.Luke said, “The way you acted just now, doesn't really seem 'straight' to me. Also, if you're into women, maybe you should consider finding one. Otherwise, if you're always single, people might start misinterpreting your feelings for me.”“Luke, actually, you're not bad at all. In fact, you're probably better than a lot of women,” Gordan replied with a sly grin.As a man himself, he honestly thought Luke was a great guy. If he were a woman, he would be utterly captivated by him.“Shut up!” Luke knew he was joking, but he still felt a chill run down his spine. He seriously worried that Gordan might do something inappropriate when he turned his back on him.Shivering from the thought, Luke put down his glass and headed upstairs.Gordan let out a deep sigh.The night w

    “Anyway, I'm saying it here—I'm not going to Russia because of that ugly woman, Vivian. If I go to Russia, it's for you. I've already divorced her. Besides, I’m already trying to avoid her, how could I possibly go to Russia for her?” Gordan took a sip of red wine, then continued his rant. “And, Ray is still in Russia. I really can't go. His men are all brutal, and I've had enough of being beaten all these years.”“Then why did you buy an apartment in Vivian's neighborhood?” Luke continued to tease him. His sharp eyes glinted with intelligence.Gordan denied it, but whether he believed it or not was his own business.“It was just a coincidence!” Gordan raised his voice, trying to convince Luke.Or maybe himself.“Coincidence?” Luke sipped his wine, every gesture as graceful as a nobleman.“Of course, it’s a coincidence, Brother Luke. You wouldn’t know, but that apartment is in a school district, surrounded by college towns. There are a ton of hotties there, I picked the place just

    As Luca listened to his tone that was full of regret, she felt a slight pang in her heart. She recalled when she had a child and continued pursuing her education. If she had given up on herself back then, perhaps she and Luke would not find themselves here today.Luca felt she was much more fortunate than the volunteer. Even though she loved her father, she also understood the importance of education and did not let her father’s illness cause her to give up. She was also fortunate to have a father who supported her education.At the thought of this, Luca could not help but ask, “Do you regret it?”“No, I don’t regret it,” the volunteer smiled. “Actually, I always look at it in a positive light. Back then, several boys in my class liked her. If I hadn’t confessed, she might have become someone else’s girlfriend. If there’s anything I regret over the years, it’s that I was too selfish and it affected her studies.“I never thought that being in a relationship at a young age would

    As Luca thought about it, she heard the volunteer exclaim, “With a wife like you, your husband must be so lucky and blessed.”Luca shook her head. To her, being cherished by Luke was a real blessing.“You’ve got it wrong. He’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”Luca had often wondered what her life would have been like without Luke.Perhaps she would have married Jean, only to watch his true nature slowly reveal itself. She would have struggled, eventually unable to endure it, and maybe even ended up divorced.It could be something worse. She might have been taken advantage of, lost all hope, and spiraled downward...Anything was possible.However, Luca knew that no matter what happened, life would not be as good as it was now without Luke.Though she remained under someone else’s control, and life on the Island of Despair was fraught with hardship, with Luke by her side, she felt an unshakable courage.A light laugh from the volunteer interrupted her thoughts.Luca

    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
