Chapter 2246 Pay For What She Did

Author: Heap Heap
“Let me ask you something. Did Luca come up with that idea?” Jack asked.

“Not entirely. I was the one who suggested looking for Dexter.” Luke looked at Jack to see that he had aged a lot because of all the worrying about political affairs and family feuds.

Although his heroic bearing was still apparent, Luke could feel that the person in front of him was getting on in years.

“Then, how sure are you of finding Dexter?” Jack asked again.

“It’s hard to say because Dexter disappeared without a trace ever since that incident, I can have people look for him right now, but I can’t say how sure I am of finding him. However, I do need you to help me confirm something.” Luke folded his arms together.

Dexter was just one of the chess pieces that tripped Leia up. When the chess piece became useless, he never bothered batting an eye at him.

“What is it?” Jack asked.

“I want to know if there’s any news of Dexter’s passing in the records,” said Luke as there must be someone who would have call

    Mandy frowned. Did Johann not see it yet? Why else would he not accept her friend request?While she was wondering, she opened her profile.Her photos and posts displayed her beauty and elegance, so all Johann had to do was click on her profile to see them.Mandy was not willing to give up, so she took a mirror selfie and posted it after photoshopping. She said how tired she was from work as the caption.Before she could enjoy all the likes and comments, Matysh’s impatient voice could be heard from the outside. “What are you doing in there? What’s taking you so long to fix your makeup?”“I’m almost done.” Mandy took out her setting powder and used it to touch up the oily spots on her face before applying more lipstick.Finally, she walked out of the bathroom and sat next to Matysh.“Mr. Matysh, let’s have a drink.” Mandy lifted the glass of wine to clink glasses with him.Matysh looked at Luca’s photo and tilted his head back to finish his wine in one go.“You’re really good a

    Rainie's words left Luke speechless."Who taught you to say that?" Luke’s mood darkened as he took Rainie's hand.‘If I could say such sweet words to Luca, why wouldn’t I?’If he did, he was afraid that he would scare Luca off. It would not be worth the loss if she opted to retreat and escape...Moreover, he did not like to use his words to show his affection. He believed that his actions spoke louder than words. However, the situation that Luca was in did not allow him to act so recklessly. After all, she still had some scruples holding her back.Luke did not act as he did before considering that she could not reveal her identity. Plus, there was still someone who was manipulating her behind the scenes."No… No one taught me to say that. I just think that what Aunt Nina said made sense..." Rainie shrank her neck and could not help but wonder. She overheard the adults speak, so she thought that that was how things should be. That was why she repeated it to Luke."This does not

    In the hospital.Leia took a bite of the breakfast that the caretaker bought and thought it tasted terrible. She could not help but lose her temper. "What did you buy for me? Why is it so unpalatable? Didn't my family pay? Did you steal the money?"The caretaker quickly shook her head. Her face was pale as she said, "I didn’t! Ms. Norman, I wouldn't dare to steal your money...""Why are these things so unpalatable? Explain yourself!" Leia was upset. Her face was sallow, and she squinted her eyes to look at the caretaker in front of her."The Osborne isn't open today. I had no choice, so I bought your breakfast from the restaurant downstairs..." The caretaker explained. Leia was a picky eater. Even though she was sick, had no appetite, and could not eat much, she still insisted on eating the best and most expensive food around.Fortunately, there was a famous breakfast place near the hospital, The Osborne. As such, the caretaker would have to leave the ward half an hour earlier eve

    The medicine under her tongue was quickly melted by saliva, and Leia was finally able to speak. She spoke with hatred, "He wanted to sell me and ruin my reputation! How can I not be angry at him?!"Queenie quickly reassured her when she saw that Leia was getting agitated once more. "Okay, that’s in the past. If we can find him and he’s willing to help, please give him a chance to make it up to you."Leia thought of what had happened back then. If Dexter had not disappeared into thin air, she certainly would not have ended things like that. "He disappeared so many years ago. How are you planning to find him? Maybe he already died at some random overpass."Queenie frowned. ‘Her hatred is too deep…’"Leia, Luke agreed to help us find him. Don't get angry now. It's more important that you take good care of yourself and wait for our good news, okay?""Wait for Luke? How would he be so kind as to help me find Dexter? Also, if Dexter agrees to give me his liver, he’ll definitely ask for

    "Eat your croissant. Why are you talking so much?" Leia stared at her. She was not sure what to think.She did desperately need some money, but she was weak and defenseless. Leia knew that she could not afford to piss off Luke. Queenie paid a lot of attention to her since she got sick and might be angry if she made a move on Luca, her so-called savior. Even if she recovered, the Normans might not accept her. She had no money and no home. She would not know where to go if that happened..."I’ve never thought of you as someone hesitant," Mandy said. Leia lived an awe-inspiring life when she was abroad.Although she did not have much money, she was courageous, so she still led a pretty decent life."I didn't expect you to be so happy to be someone else's substitute." Leia mocked her.Mandy was arrogant. She would never allow her prey to make use of her as a substitute."Ugh, it's just a work relationship. I'm not stupid enough to want to get on his bed.

    T Corporation.Jason took Gale to the entrance of Luke's office and said, "Bro, the boss is waiting for you inside.""Thanks. I'll head in to update Boss on what I found." Gale knocked on the door after he thanked Jason."Come in." Luke's voice sounded from the other side of the door.Gale pushed the door and walked in. After he closed the door, he sat directly across from Luke. "Boss, we found something.""Tell me," Luke said.Gale handed him a stack of papers. "This is everything I could find on Mandy Sanders. She and Leia met when they were in the United States. They were no longer in contact after Leia secretly returned to A City. Mandy only came to A City after she accepted Matysh's job. She reconnected with Leia and has visited Leia in the hospital for three consecutive days.""Three days?" Luke casually flipped through Mandy's profile. She was just an ordinary woman. He would not pay much attention to her in normal circumstances.He only asked Gale to investigate her whe

    Johann said with a smile, "Don't worry, he's not a bad guy. He won't do anything to Ms. Norman. You can head off now."The nurse looked at how stern Luke seemed and could not help but shiver. She thought he looked as though he was here to collect debts. "Are you sure it’s okay for me to leave?""Don’t worry about it. I'll be here. You can get out," Johann said and shook his head helplessly.Luke's expressionless face was indeed scary. He turned around and looked at Leia's vitals on the monitor. There was no issue except for her slightly fastened heartbeat.The nurse thought that Luke was scary, but considering that Johann was here, she quickly walked out after weighing it over and over again.Leia felt deep despair in her heart. "Come back soon."The nurse pretended not to hear Leia and walked out the door.The injection to stabilize Leia’s blood pressure was not in line with the hospital's standard procedure. As such, Johann reminded Luke. "If you want to ask, go for it. Don't

    At night.Luke had nothing planned for the day, so he returned to the villa after he left the office.As soon as he walked into the house, the children surrounded him and handed him their homework. "Daddy, we’ve finished our homework."Luke took their workbooks. He did not see Luca in the living room, so he asked the kids, "Where's Ms. Luca?"Rainie replied obediently, "Ms. Luca is in the kitchen preparing dinner. Aunt Neile asked for some time off and just left, so Ms. Luca is busy cooking alone. Daddy, after you’re done checking our homework, go and help Ms. Luca."Luke put their workbooks down. "I'll go take a look."He walked into the kitchen and saw Luca in an apron preparing dinner for the family. It reminded him of how she was always in the kitchen preparing dinner for him and the children three years ago.At that time, Luca would never let the maid cook since the children liked to eat the meals she prepared. At most, she would let the maid become her helper. "Stop it,"

    If Shanks’ prescription could help Hera sleep earlier, that would not be a bad thing.“Then I need to be treat…” Hera paused for a moment, realizing she could not say the word treatment. That would imply she was sick, and she could not let people know that. Instead, she corrected herself and asked, “How long will I need to take this herbal medicine?”“You can stop when your test results are back to normal,” replied Luca as she picked up the medical waste and headed out of the room.Gerald followed closely behind and asked with curiosity, “Ms. Craw, how long is that?”“How long is a standard treatment cycle?” Luca asked in return.Gerald pondered for a moment. “Usually about a month?”“The average endocrine cycle for women is three months, so the minimum duration for proper regulation is three months,” explained Luca.Although Abel could take action at any time, there was no way Hera could endure three full months of treatment. However, until Abel made his move, she would have

    Luca’s head was slightly tilted, her cheek burning with pain.Abel had not held back at all. The force of his slap was merciless. A numbness spread across her face at an alarming speed.From the next room, someone peeked out again and asked in a low voice, “You okay?”“I’m fine.” Luca’s expression remained calm. This kind of injury was nothing to her.Back on the Island of Despair, she had endured far worse during training. She survived, did she not?Without another word, Luca pushed open the lab door and stepped inside.The man watching shook his head. Her face was already that swollen, and she still said she was fine… What a tough woman. She took a slap that hard and brushed it off like it was nothing.Shanks lifted his head when he heard the door open. When he saw it was Luca and noticed how swollen the side of her face was, his brows furrowed.“Abel did this?”“Who else?” Luca let out a bitter laugh, only to wince as the movement tugged at the pain. She sucked in a sharp b

    “No.” Shanks’ tone was cold and firm with no trace of hesitation.Abel still looked doubtful.Shanks added, “Would you like to see her medical report?”Abel was startled for a moment. How did Shanks know he had been thinking about that report?Now that Shanks brought it up, the idea lost its appeal.Abel shook his head. “Even if you showed it to me, I wouldn’t understand it. Shanks, Kassy’s life is in your hands. If you can give her a second chance, I’ll provide as much research funding as you need."Shanks remained silent. He could save Kassy. In fact, his research had always been for Kassy.However, he did not expect Abel to be so ruthless as to insist on using a living person as a donor for Kassy. That was something he could not accept.Kassy’s condition could be treated with organs from a brain-dead patient. Why destroy a perfectly healthy life?Shanks was not acting out of mercy. He simply refused to go against his medical ethics.He was not someone who had to save lives

    “You don’t need to remind me. I was going to check anyway.” Abel shot Luca a chilling look.She took a step back and stayed silent.Abel turned to the pale-faced Hera and said, “If you’ve got low blood sugar, get up and eat something.”“I’ll eat now,” Hera replied, sitting up.Luca handed her the takeout.Abel glanced at the food and then frowned at Luca. “Why didn’t you make breakfast this morning?”“I was busy,” Luca explained with a calm indifference, her expression unwavering. She showed no fear, even under Abel’s questioning.Hera suddenly found herself admiring Luca. Everyone feared this man, yet Luca remained composed even when facing potential punishment. Not just anyone could pull that off.At the thought of this, Hera opened the takeout and kept quiet.Abel narrowed his eyes, glancing between Hera and Luca. His gaze was not exactly gentle as he muttered, “Stop eating this junk. It’s bad for you.”“I know, babe. Just this once. After this, I’ll have what Luca cooks f

    Hera panicked the moment she heard that. “I trust her!”Luca and Shanks were both watching her.Hera repeated herself, saying, “I trust her, okay? What kind of treatment does she need? I’ll cooperate with anything. But what about Abel…”“I’ll tell him it’s just to help improve your overall health,” replied Shanks. Then, he turned around, opened the medicine cabinet, and started preparing the prescription.Hera let out a sigh of relief. As long as Abel did not find out about her health condition, that was all that mattered.If he knew she was unwell, he would send her back to A City. Without free medical help and no way to make extra money, she would be in serious trouble.“Thank you,” said Hera.“Wait outside,” instructed Shanks.“Okay.” Hera carefully stepped out.Luca, however, remained where she was, waiting.While preparing the medicine, Shanks asked, “Do you know which acupoints to target for her?”“Yes,” Luca replied confidently. As long as she checked Hera’s pulse, sh

    “There are a lot of issues.” Luca did not hide anything and handed Hera the phone.Hera looked at it and frowned.“I can't understand any of this.” Hera felt dizzy just looking at the text, let alone the long list of medical terms. It was giving her a headache.“Look at these summaries and indicators. Compare the values on top with the normal values at the bottom, and you'll see what I mean,” explained Luca.Hera did not trust her. Therefore, Luca decided to let her see for herself. Seeing it with her own eyes would prevent any doubts later.Luca pointed out how to read the test results, and after a moment, Hera managed to understand the report. Her face turned pale. “How can there be so many problems?”She looked at Luca and questioned, “Did you fake this?”“I don’t have the power to make the medical center fake anything. Besides, the report has the medical center’s official stamp. If you don’t believe me, you can go directly to the medical center and ask for the official cop

    “I heard from the boss that he's coming because of Vivian.” Gale paused for a moment before adding, “But never mind, you don't seem interested in her affairs anyway. I'm just letting you know he's on his way.”Gordan frowned. Ray was coming for Vivian?What could that ugly woman possibly need?“What do you mean by that?” asked Gordan.Gale smirked. “If you and Ray meet, that’s bound to end in a fight. And since you can't win against him, you might want to mentally prepare yourself, or better yet, find somewhere else to stay. It’d be safer that way.”Gordan's expression darkened. “If you have nothing nice to say, just zip it.”Gale grinned, clearly pleased with himself like he had just hit a sore spot.Gordan exhaled sharply. “Of all times, why is he coming to A City now? He’s just making things worse.”“It can't be helped. Vivian's situation is urgent.” Gale covered his mouth mockingly after he said that. “Oh, right. I forgot you don’t like hearing about her.”Ray wanted to br

    Luke sat in the villa, staring at Luca’s message.He was worried.For a moment, he considered calling her, but then he remembered that there were surveillance cameras everywhere on her side. He dismissed the idea immediately.Her safety came first.Luke reminded her: [Take care of yourself. Don’t worry, I’ll handle everything. Just focus on keeping yourself safe.] The worry in his heart refused to subside, but at this moment, there was no better solution.“Boss, you’re worried about your wife, huh? If you really can’t stand it, we can sneak you in again during the next shift change, just like last time,” said Gale.It had been his idea last time.Now, the real Lucius was still locked up in the basement of the villa.It had been nearly a month. Luke had forced him to take the antidote Luca had recreated. The man was still alive, proving the antidote worked perfectly.“That plan is too risky.” Luke put his phone away. His gaze was dark and thoughtful.“Risky, sure. But at lea

    Luca had not expected Abel and Shanks’ relationship to be like this.It seemed Abel still did not trust Shanks.Shanks continued, “Abel isn’t someone who trusts people easily. He doesn’t trust anyone. You think he’s devoted to Kassy now, right? That’s just his obsession. He's allowing Kassy to receive my treatment, but if it were him… No matter if he were blind or crippled, his safety would always come first. If he were seriously injured, maybe he’d accept treatment, but he definitely wouldn’t do it right away.”Luca stayed silent. Shanks really understood Abel well.Abel did not trust anyone—not even Kassy.Calling him paranoid would not be an exaggeration.Luca felt like they were getting off-topic, but she had never seen this side of Shanks before.In her mind, he was always buried in his work at the lab, only leaving for meals and sleep. Other than that, he was practically never outside.The lab was like his home…“Are you troubled by Hera’s situation?” Luca asked directly
