Luca clenched her teeth and glared at the man. He was here listening to her conversation with Amur, which was inconvenient for her.

Amur knew she wanted to do what was best for him. She thought they could have each other’s back. However, he would be worried if she joined the mission.

“It’s alright.” He could not say much about it. He could only comfort her with a simple few words.

Luca stood up and looked at him seriously. “How is it alright? You’re injured. Be careful next time, do you hear me?”

“Yes. I’ll be careful.” Amur nodded. It was part of his plan to get injured this time. The mission given to him was to gain someone’s trust, so he deliberately took the stab for that person.

However, he did not expect to be stabbed so badly.

“And don’t ignore my messages. Haven’t you seen how many messages I’ve sent you? You didn’t even reply. Even if you’re busy with your mission, don’t you have the time to reply to my messages?” Luca pulled a long face as she continued lecturing him.

Eler was still on the Island of Despair, so she was Amur’s sister here.

Amur nodded continuously while listening to her reprimands. He told her that he would be careful.

It was not his intention to ignore the messages she sent him. He left his phone here to do the mission, so his phone was not with him.

There was no way Luca could contact him.

Amur felt sorry when he saw her worried about him, but he felt warm at the same time. After she finished lecturing him, he asked, “Did you specially come to B City to look for me?”

“I wanted to come here a little while ago, but I couldn’t leave. You know as well that someone is watching me.” Luca shrugged her arms helplessly. Even if she could ask for leave from Mr. Crawford, Abel would never allow her to leave A City randomly.

“Then how did you…” Amur was worried that she had disobeyed Abel’s orders.

“Don’t worry. I came here on a company trip.” Luca knew what he was worried about. She looked at the time. She left at midnight, it was almost three o’clock in the morning now.

“I have to go back,” said Luca.

Amur was reluctant to let her leave, but it would not be easy for her to explain things if she did not return now. Even though she did not tell him, he knew Luke was keeping an eye on her.

Luca said, “Something happened in A City, and I’ve texted you everything about it. Read the messages when you’re free. Be careful and come back safely, do you understand?”

Even though he did not tell her about the mission, she knew that it would take some time for him to complete it.

Hence, the only thing she could do was to advise him to be careful.

Amur nodded. He knew she was leaving. He stepped forward and said, “I’ll walk you.”

“No, get some rest. I’ll get a taxi to go back. You must make sure your hand fully recovers. Don’t risk any after-effects.” Luca glanced at his wound. There was not much blood oozing out on the bandage. The bleeding had probably stopped.

Amur nodded but insisted on walking her to the door.

He closed the door after Luca left. The man who was standing aside lit up a cigarette. They had been carrying out the mission together all this time. They were finally getting familiar with each other. He reminded Amur when he saw him like this. “Just a reminder, there’s no emotional attachment on the Island of Despair. You’d better give up as soon as possible.”

Amur listened to what he said and shot him a cold glance. Then, he headed back to the room.

He was losing too much blood, and he was trying to hang on when Luca was here just now. His body was already in a state of extreme weakness.

He lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

…

Luca got into two cars during her journey back to the mountain villa.

It was crowded at night as it was a tourist area, so it was convenient for her to hail a taxi here. After she returned to the mountain villa, she got into the sightseeing car and returned to the hotel.

When she reached the hotel, she accidentally ran into some people working in T Corporation who were coming back from the bar. They saw Luca and greeted her with a smile. “Dr. Craw, did you come here to get some drinks because you couldn’t sleep? The bar is closed.”

“Then I guess I’ll have to go up.” Luca did not explain when they misunderstood her reason for being downstairs. She went upstairs with them.

The room she was staying in was on a higher floor. After they got out of the elevator, she stood in front, lifted her head, and glanced at the surveillance camera. Then, she stepped out of the elevator as if nothing happened.

She was back in her room but she knew she would not be able to fall asleep. Hence, she took a bath, then adjusted the number of sleeping pills. She swallowed them and lay down on her bed.

On the other side.

Luke’s room was still brightly lit. He had not slept until now.

Jason received a call, and he reported to Luke after hanging up. “Boss, our men in the hotel said Dr. Craw has returned.”

“Returned?” Luke glanced at the time. It was already four o’clock in the morning.

He knew she had gone out just now, but B City was not his territory. He did not have much manpower here. This time, he did not send someone to follow Luca.

She was so smart. No one would be able to track her down…

Hence, Luke did not waste his manpower.

“Yes,” Jason replied. He turned around and yawned.

He was sleepy and tired. However, his boss wanted him to work overtime. He had no choice but to work overtime.

Luke noticed his small gestures. “Go get some rest.”

“Thank you, Boss.” Jason trotted out of the room after he was released.

Luke looked at the laptop. After Luca had her dinner at the restaurant, she did not join Tina and the others. Instead, she chose to return to her room.

She left her room at 12.05 a.m.

Where did she go from 12:00 to 4:00 in the morning? Did she look for her brother with whom she had no blood relations?

Luke recalled Amur’s appearance. He was indeed in B City too, but he did not manage to find out Amur’s exact coordinates when he sent someone to gather information about Amur.

He disappeared right after he got on the train and reached B City. He had no purchase records or travel records.

It seemed like Luca and Amur were hiding a big secret. It was just that there was no way his men were able to get any information about it.

However, Luke believed that Luca’s secrets would eventually be revealed if he continued to dig them up.

His fingers would unconsciously tap on the table when he was thinking. He was planning something in his mind.

He would need to check if there was a mark on her body to see if Luca had anything to do with the Island of Despair.

Rain had worked out a type of potion after the incident with the fake Bianca. If one’s skin came into contact with the water and potion mixture, the cream would lose its effects and the tattoo would be exposed.

Everything would be a lot easier with that potion.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
