Chapter 2287 An Honest Mistake

Author: Heap Heap
"It’s not that easy to find out more about the situation. Our best entry point is Pierre," Luke said. However, Pierre wanted nothing to do with him.

He would not tell him anything about the Island of Despair.

"I can't help in this matter although he's my younger brother," Percy said helplessly.

Pierre's whereabouts were erratic. Percy had not paid attention to the people he knew and what he was doing. After all, Pierre's rebelliousness was not obvious at that time.

"He's your brother but even you don't know. It's making it more difficult for me to investigate," Luke said.

All he knew now was that Luca was being controlled by someone from the Island of Despair.

However, he had no idea where the base of the Island of Despair was.

The fake Bianca did not leave any useful clues before she died from the poison. The earth was huge. He was not sure where to even start.

"Don't worry. At least Luca is by your side now. There’s still time." Percy did not know what to say, so he could on

    “Alright, one moment, please.” The waiter who brought in the wine went back out to prepare the A-meals and snacks. Meanwhile, the floor manager was at a loss on how to salvage the situation with a long face.What else could he do if Percy refused to have any of the food and beverages he served?It was not like he could vacate the room for them by chasing Percy out while he was in the middle of drinking.The waiter served all the food Percy wanted in swift motions.“Alright, you can all go out now.” Percy made a gesture, indicating that their service was no longer needed here.“Mr. Mallory.” The floor manager had something to say.“Get out,” Percy ordered once again with an annoyed expression.The floor manager had no choice but to follow the waiter out of the private room.Jason frowned at the sight of the amount of alcohol. “Mr. Mallory, will you be able to finish this much wine?”“Who said anything about finishing everything? I’ll open one bottle at a time, and I’ll just b

    “Mr. Holston, you’re quite observant,” Jason mocked him before the other two said anything.“I was just looking out for Mr. Mallory by spying on them,” Jim said joyfully.“You could recognize a thousand-dollar watch? Has your taste in fashion downgraded after getting married?” Percy seized the opportunity and dealt him a mighty blow to get revenge on him for making fun of Nina for not being able to cook.Even if Nina did not know how to cook, she was still the best. They could just leave the cooking to the maid. As long as she stayed by his side, that would be way better than mastering any skill.“The year is ending soon, so I did my research because of employee benefits.” Jim noticed his uninterested expression and asked, “Are you really not going over there to take a look?”“After what happened between him and Pierre, there’s no way he would go over there.” Luke picked up his wine glass and slowly swirled it unlike the other two who downed theirs.Percy took a sip of wine and r

    “If it’s not an internal decision, our chances of winning will be greater if we work together with the bidding. We have to secure the bid this time,” said Jim after analyzing the situation.“When the detailed announcement is out, we need to have a meeting to discuss it, and if there are no problems, the company will start working on the bidding document.” Luke took a sip of wine.Once the three of their companies joined forces, got their quotations, and T Corporation put together a proposal, the other participating companies would not stand a chance against them, whether it be in terms of price or quality of the project.Moreover, the other companies would have greater competition in finding partnering companies after the three of them joined forces.“Sure.” Jim nodded as Luke would always come to him when his company needed entertainment for his development projects.Vice versa, when he needed construction for his entertainment projects, he would also go to Luke’s company to cond

    She had sold that house a long time ago, but the money was squandered before she was even put in jail.Hence, she had no money left at all.“You don’t have money? Then shut up!” Jean bent down with a sinister look on his face and slapped Marie’s face a few times with the cash in his hands. “In my house, I’m in charge. If you don’t have money, just shut the f*ck up!”His breath reeked of alcohol, and Marie looked at him full of hatred.“What’s with that look? Just looking at you makes me lose my appetite! If you don’t want to live here, get out. With that run-down body of yours, no one will take pity on you and give you a place to live!” Jean showed no mercy as he pinched her chin forcefully.Instantly, Marie’s face was bruised by the pinch.“It hurts!” She was in so much pain that her tears started overflowing.Jean grunted and let go. He was put in a good mood again upon seeing the cash in his hand.“If you still want to live here, be more honest with me. For old times’ sake,

    Jean did not like coming to the hospital because of the germs.If there was money in her card, it would be more convenient for her to give money to Jean.“I don’t even have money for a taxi right now. Do you want me to walk to the hospital?” said Jean. Previously, when he ran out of money, he even sold his motorcycle.Now, he did not even have a way of getting around.“So what can you do? You can’t starve either. How about this? I’ll go ask that stupid girl for some money. Give me a moment,” said Anna.“Okay, I’ll be waiting to hear from you.” Jean hung up after that.Nina might not care if he were dead or alive, but there was no way she would ignore Anna.In the mansion.Nina was getting ready to go to work when she received a call from Anna.Nothing good came from Anna’s calls, so Nina sat in the car with a slight headache. She waited for the phone to ring several times before she answered it.“Yes?”“Add a few hundred dollars to my card. I need to use it,” Anna asked her

    Besides, their home was as messy as a doghouse. Anna was not a fool. She knew that the hospital had a better environment than her home.Plus, she did not have to worry about food or clothing in the hospital. No matter how unhappy Nina was, she still had to pay.Jean could not help but fret. Not only did he not get any money, but he even got nagged at by Anna. Then, he said, “I don’t know how she saw me—”“So, you do have money?” Anna interrupted him. She always thought that Jean did not have much money, so he could not take care of her.However, he had the money right now. Not only did he not spend a single penny on her, he still asked her for money, which made Anna extremely unhappy.“I had money last night, but the money is all gone now. Mom, I don’t have money!” Jean said as he switched his phone to a different hand. When he saw his empty wrist, his rage started burning again.“How did you lose all the money in one night? Did you gamble it away? Or did you spend it on a woman?

    “That’s your own problem. My only obligation is to take care of Mom, not you.” Nina hung up the phone and told him firmly that it was impossible for him to try to get money from her.Jean gripped the phone in his hands tightly with murderous eyes as he listened to the busy tone on the other end of the call.With his stomach in constant pain, he had no other choice but to call Pierre.After the phone rang six times, Pierre’s tirade could be heard. “What’s the matter with you? Why are you calling so early?”Jean recoiled and apologized in a hurry. “I’m sorry, Mr. Pierre, but I have a favor to ask you.”“If you have something to say, spit it out.” Pierre was impatient. If he were not Nina’s brother, he would not even go close to people like him.“Uhh… All my money got stolen. Can you lend me some temporarily?” Jean bit the bullet and asked him for money, hoping that he would help him solve this urgent matter for the sake of Nina.“It’s none of my f*cking business if your money got

    It was just a thought, though. Jean still refused to work.He crossed his legs while sitting on the couch, then he looked at the receptionist and asked, “Do you have anything to eat or drink here?”“Yes, Mr. Langdon. Have a seat while I go prepare something for you,” the receptionist said politely.Jean nodded arrogantly as he was just here for the money, but unexpectedly, he could freeload on some food too.After a while, the receptionist brought a cup of coffee and some snacks over.Jean ignored the receptionist’s gaze as he grabbed the snacks and ate them right away. Although they were small, they still tasted great. Just a few more of these would be enough to fill him up.When the receptionist saw Jean wolfing down the food as if he had not eaten for days, she frowned slightly and brought more snacks over after some consideration.The company’s purchasing department had bought these snacks to entertain the guests. They were quite pricey because practically everyone who came

    When she opened her eyes again, the sky outside had already darkened slightly.Luca mumbled, feeling the warmth beside her. She instinctively curled closer. “What time is it?”“It's a little past five.” Luke gently rubbed her back, offering a quiet comfort to help her feel at ease.Since he could not be there beside her, he could only make these small gestures to bring her some peace of mind.“An entire afternoon just passed like that…” Luca was reluctant to leave at the moment. Her slender fingers lightly pressed against his chest.Luke took her hand in his, bringing it to his lips for a soft kiss, holding it as if it were something precious and tenderly stroking it.Luca's hands had once been delicate and smooth, but during their time in the small villa, they had become much rougher.“You've got calluses.” Luke felt sorry for her.Luca gently traced her finger over his lips, leaning in to plant a soft kiss on him. “It’s just from the needlework and the experiments I’ve been d

    Luca walked over to another couch and sat down. “I think I’ll stay here. How about letting Luke come down so that we can all catch up? It’s been a while since we’ve seen each other.”Gordan’s face fell. “Ms. Craw, are you doing this on purpose?”Luca pretended not to know anything. “Doing what on purpose?”Gordan quickly shook his head. “Nothing. Just go upstairs already. Brother Luke’s been waiting for you.”Luca had intended to tease Gordan a little longer, but after not seeing Luke for the past few days, she found herself missing him deeply. Standing up with a smile, she said, “Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Oh, by the way, Mr. Gale, could you help me pick up a few things? Someone over there asked me to get them, and I couldn’t refuse.”“Sure, no problem. What do you need?” Gale agreed immediately.After handing him the list, Luca turned and headed upstairs.Gale watched Luca leave from behind, nudging Gordan’s arm. “Let’s go. We should leave and give the boss and Ms. Cr

    The security guard remained completely unfazed.This was because the village chief was his uncle, and in their tight-knit community, they always stuck together and never favored outsiders.With directions from the people inside the ancestral hall, Hera found the village chief.“You’re the village chief, right?” Hera looked at the man in his fifties in front of her and spoke with an arrogant tone, completely unbothered.“And you are?” The village chief, seeing her attitude, was puzzled. He had no idea whether she was an investor or someone looking to discuss a major partnership to bring development to their quiet village.“It doesn’t matter who I am. I see you have surveillance here, and I need to review your footage,” replied Hera.The village chief was even more confused. “Are you a police officer?”“No.” Hera frowned. She thought reviewing surveillance footage was no big deal. Why was this village chief being so difficult?The village chief gave her a look as if she were a fo

    “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
