Chapter 1140 On A Mission

"Miss!" Amur was standing near the balcony. The moment he heard something, he turned around and saw the familiar face that made him pleasantly surprised.

Luca was relieved to see that it was Amur. She kept the knife in her hand in her pocket and said, "Amur, it's you! Why did you get off the island?" "I left the island because the boss sent me on a mission that happened to be near here, so I wanted to visit you. Miss, how are you doing?" Amur grinned when he saw her, his gaze softening.

"I'm doing great. You're getting buff! It seems that your training has improved." Luca approached him and did not ask how he came in. They were all trained on the Island of Despair. Gates as such did not pose any difficulty.

Even the security measures of Crawford Manor could not hinder them.

Amur had grown a lot stronger during the time she was away. That was why she did not recognize his figure just now.

Amur blushed when he heard her praise. He touched his hair and approached her. "Miss, I've been training hard, so my body has gotten much stronger." "Really? Let’s have a look." Luca observed as he walked closer to her. She suddenly grabbed his hand and subdued him to the ground in a second.

Amur was in pain but his face remained unchanged. "Miss..."

He did not expect Luca to do that.

"Amur, your fighting skills may have improved, but your defense still needs some work," Luca said as she let go.

Amur stood up and straightened his crumpled clothes. "Miss, I’ll pay attention next time."

Luca shook her head helplessly. He had never kept his guard up against her. Every time he was knocked down, he would always say that he would pay more attention the next time.

He trusted her too much.

"Your mission is in A City?" Luca asked.

"Yeah." Amur nodded. This was his third mission.

"Be careful." Luca patted his sturdy shoulder. With the rules of the Island of Despair in mind, she did not ask him about his mission to avoid putting him in a tough spot.

"I will, Miss." Amur touched his face and felt a little warm.

Every time he had physical contact with Luca, he could not help but blush.

Luca picked up the groceries on the coffee table and asked, "Are you in a hurry? If you're not, stay for dinner." "The boss gave me one month to finish my mission, Miss. I’m not in a hurry, " Amur said as he took over the grocery bags in her hand.

"Do you have a place to live?’ Luca said as she passed him the bags.

Amur had already figured out the layout of the apartment and placed the groceries in the refrigerator. When he heard Luca’s question, he shook his head and said, "I don't have a place to live yet. I plan to find a hotel nearby."

Luca looked at his tall figure and smiled. "I have an extra room here. If you don't mind that it's filled with potions and books, you can stay there." "Really?" Amur poked his head out and looked at her.

"Of course, but there's only a sofa bed. You're more than welcome to stay here if you don't mind." Luca nodded.

For the past three years, she had thought of Amur as her younger brother and Eler as her younger sister.

"Okay, thank you, Miss." Amur smiled shyly.

"Okay! I'll cook. Thinking about it, this is the first time you’ll be trying my cooking. Do you have any preference on the cuisine?" Luca did not forget that he was a foreigner.

"It doesn't matter what you cook. I'm sure that anything you cook will be delicious." Amur wanted to help but remembered that he knew nothing about cooking, so he just smiled awkwardly.

Luca nodded, took out the ingredients, and planned to show him her skills.

An hour later, she made a sumptuous lunch. The two of them sat at the table. Luca raised her glass of juice and said, "There’s no wine here, so I'll use juice instead of wine to wish you all the best for your mission." "Thank you, Miss." Amur held up his juice and clinked glasses with her.

After they clinked glasses, Bianca served him some food as she said, "You won't find these dishes on the island, so eat more."

Amur was touched to see his plate full of food, which Bianca had cooked for him.

"Miss, do you miss Nyla?" Amur asked.

Luca was stunned. She teared a little as she thought of her youngest daughter. She nodded and said, "Of course, I miss her." "Miss, before I left the island, I took a few photos of Nyla. They're on my phone. I'll send them to you." Amur immediately took out his phone.

The Island of Despair did not allow the use of phones. Only before each mission could they bring a mobile phone with a tracker so that they were contactable.

That was why when Luca left, she could not take any photos of Nyla.

"How did you..." Luca was surprised.

"I thought that you would miss Nyla a lot, so I took them before I left." The moment he found out Bianca was close to where he had to carry out his mission, Amur took the risk and took some photos just so Luca could see Nyla again.

"You shouldn't have. It's too risky. If Abel finds out, you'll be punished!" Luca was moved and glad that he was not caught.

On the Island of Despair, there were strict rules about taking photos of the island. It was so that what was happening on the Island of Despair would not be leaked to outsiders.

"Miss, we know you miss Nyla, so Eler and I planned to take some photos of her for you.’ Amur looked at her phone on the table, picked it up, and shared the photos using a software developed on the Island of Despair.

"Thank you." Luca smiled and could not wait to open the album.

She was moved to tears when she saw Nyla's photos.

"Nyla has grown two centimeters taller. My sister said that she'll grow faster and faster. Soon enough, she’d need new clothes." Amur said.

"When a child reaches this stage, they sprout fast." Luca suddenly felt upset. Nyla was growing up yet she could not be by her side.

"Miss..." Amur noticed her change in mood and was not sure how to console her.

"I'm fine. By the way, you’re in A City now. Stop calling me 'Miss’. Others might be curious when they hear it." Luca put down her phone to correct him.

Amur did not have a problem talking normally to other people but he always used honorifics around her.

That was okay on the Island of Despair, but they were off the island now.

"Okay..." Amur paused and looked at her awkwardly. "What should I call you?" "I'm older than you, you can call me Luca, or 'Sister*," Luca said. It was just a title, she did not mind. : owner of this content.

Amur paused and called out to her, "Luca..."
