Chapter 1323 Now Is The Best Time
Luca nodded and sat on the sofa. "Yes, I bought some clothes to prepare for the change in season. By the way, you should go buy some when you have the time. The weather here is not like that of the island. The change in season is drastic."
Amur nodded and saw her take out her purse from her bag. When she was about to hand him her credit card, he said, "I have money."
After hearing this, Luca still shoved the card in his hand and said, "I know you have money, but you should save it for a rainy day. You're in A City to help me, so I should pay for all your expenses."
Seeing that she took it so seriously, Amur felt a little helpless. "What would I need money for?"
"To start a family," Luca said with a smile. One day, she would escape the Island of Despair with them. When that happened, Amur and Eler would need money to start their new lives.
Amur smiled stiffly when he heard what she said. Starting a family felt like something that would only happen in the far future.
He knew that Luca always had a plan to leave the island with them but Amur did not plan as far ahead as she did. All he wanted was to be by her side to protect her.
Luca noticed that he did not speak and his smile was not as bright as before. She thought he was shy and said with a smile, "Amur, I need a favor from you."
"Tell me," Amur immediately responded when he heard her change the subject.
He did not put any thoughts into starting a family. His only goal was to stay by her side and do his best for her.
Luca said, "I have a friend, someone who was close to me in the past. She has encountered some trouble recently and there might be someone plotting against her. If it's not too much trouble, I’d appreciate it if you could protect her and her children..."
"Your friend?" Amur frowned. He did not expect that she was still stuck in the past.
Luke, her three kids, and now her friend...
"Yes, I happened to bump into her when I was shopping earlier and found out about the situation that she's in. She was kind to me before so I can't stay out of it knowing that she might be in danger. You wouldn't have to protect her for too long, only until her partner returns to A City," Luca explained.
Amur thought that she was explaining so much for fear that he would not agree to her request...
He nodded and said, "Give me that person's details and I'll protect her."
Luca immediately picked up her phone after Amur agreed and sent him all of Sue's details, including her photos and address.
"She lives a simple life. All she does is go to work and send her children to and fro from school. Her life is not that complicated."
Amur nodded and looked at the information she had sent over. He knew that she had prepared it in advance.
If he did not agree to her request, she would protect Sue on her own.
Luca was always like this. Even though she went through a lot on the Island of Despair in the past three years, she still kept to her true self. She would not hesitate to give back to those who were kind to her.
It was a pity that a kind person like her had to suffer such horrifying experiences...
Amur always felt that no matter how much blood was on Luca’s hands, she was still different from the others.
She seemed to come from heaven while others came from the abyss of hell.
Seeing that he agreed readily, Luca informed him of Sue and Jason's relationship.
After hearing this, Amur asked with a weird expression on his face, "You want to protect her because she was kind to you before, or is it because of Luke?"
"Of course, it's because she was kind to me. Look at the company she’s in. It was founded by me. However, the fake
Bianca didn’t do anything so the company fell into Luke's hands." Luca's heart felt heavy when the past was mentioned.
Amur nodded and took the matter up.
Luca picked up her laptop and found T Corporation's website.
She did not bother to hide it. Amur saw it and could not help but ask, "What are you looking at?"
Luca told him all about what had happened in New York and shared her suspicions. "The security system on New York's side was easily cracked by Abel and his men. They planted a virus. I'm worried that the same will happen in A City."
Amur watched her try to write code and remembered that of all the training she received on the Island of Despair, coding was the most difficult for her. Abel had to give in and made her quit. Then, she was tasked to devote her time to the study of medicine.
"What program are you planning to write?" Amur asked.
Luca frowned and replied, "I want to write an intrusion program but I don’t want to look at any secret information. I want to check for the loopholes in T Corporation's security system to see if there are any traces of the intrusion."
Amur noticed that everything she did was related to Luke. His heart felt tight.
She tried her best to maintain a relationship with him but even when he was not around, she still did the same... Belongs to - All rights reserved.
'When will Luca prioritize herself?' ’
Amur said, "T Corporation's security system is not so easy to hack into."
"That's the case for me, but not for you," Luca said as she stared straight at him.
Amur sighed as he knew she wanted him to help.
Even if he did not want to, there were no other options...
Amur could not bear to watch her stay up all night just to create a program, so he moved the computer in her hand to his lap and took the matter off her hands. "I'll help you."
Luca looked right at him.
Amur's fingers tapped on the keyboard quickly as he typed sentences that she could not understand.
Luca knew about his talent in computer programming.
She did it on purpose.
Luca wanted him to take a look at T Corporation's security system. She did not want Luke to find out about the flaws after Abel took action.
He was capable but he was exposed under the light while Abel was hiding in the dark. If anything happened, the situation would be unfavorable to Luke.
"Amur, thank you," Luca said.
Amur knew what she was doing. He did not look up as he said, "I’m helping Luke. He’s the one who should be thanking me."
Luca smiled, stood up, and walked to the kitchen. "I'm going to wash some fruits."
Amur moved quickly and after a while, he finished a long paragraph.
Luca placed the fruits on the coffee table. When she saw the code that was being typed out, she said, "This matter isn't urgent. You should eat something first. Abel's men are busy causing chaos in New York. I don't think he’ll do anything here in the meantime." ’
"If he wants to cause chaos for Luke, now is the best time," Amur reminded her.
