Luca made the gesture that she did just now. "Do you mean this?"

"Yes!" Vivian nodded. She was curious. When Luca did this action, Pierre could not hold back his fear.

"I did this to him the last time and he had to stay in the hospital for about a week. His entire body was in pain, but the doctors couldn't find anything wrong with him." Luca took a sip of coffee. She thought that Pierre must have something planned since he did not get the project but still chose to stay here.

Maybe she should remind Luke to be on guard against Pierre.

‘It's just that... He's already doubting me. Will he still believe what I say?'

Vivian's eyes widened, and she did the same gesture with her hands. "It's that amazing? You can send someone to the hospital just like that?"

Luca shook her head, stood up slightly, pointed to a spot on her abdomen, and said, "Do that in this area. As long as you use about 50% of force, you can make anyone feel unbearable pain and beg to be sent to the hospital."

"Is it this spot?" Vivian looked at Luca and pointed at her stomach.

"Don't try it for fun. It'll work as long as the location is right," Luca reminded her.

Vivian let go. She had to prepare for school and did not want to suffer. "I'm just curious. Based on what you said, isn't that a good way to protect yourself?"

Luca shook her head. "This method isn't all too appropriate to use for self-protection."

"Why?" Vivian was even more curious after she heard what Luca said. Her tiny piercing eyes looked at Luca.

"This method won't take effect immediately. If you use it on the enemy when you're in danger, he won't feel pain immediately. It'll take an hour at the earliest. A lot of things can happen in an hour," Luca explained.

"I get it now. Yes, it doesn't seem very effective for self-protection. What part of the body does this move cause damage to?” Vivian was like a curious baby. This method was suitable for forcing some people to speak.

There were many ways to force someone to tell the truth, and most of them mainly involved causing harm to other people's bodies. As such, she wanted to know what kind of harm Luca's method would cause to the human body.

"It won't cause any harm, but it'll hurt for a few days. In the beginning, the painkillers will be effective, but the effect of the painkillers will gradually reduce. Their demand for painkillers will increase, and doctors might think that something's wrong with their head..." Luca explained to her as she picked up a

macaron and took a bite. 'It tastes great.'

Vivian's expression was full of disbelief. "What?! Then what happens next?"

"The pain will suddenly stop. When the person is in pain, no matter what instrument you use to check, the doctors will only find that the body's various indicators and organ functions are great. As such, it would not cause any long-term harm. It'll just hurt a lot for a while."

Vivian and the bodyguards looked at each other. They were curious about the information Luca just shared.

Luca knew that they did not quite believe what she said, so she smiled without explaining any further.

Vivian asked, "How does this work..."

'It doesn't cause any harm nor organ damage to the body but can cause significant pain?' She was amazed.

"It's probably because of the weak points and nerves," Luca explained to them without holding back.

She did not understand the logic behind it either because Shanks was the one who taught her that.

When Shanks was teaching, he would only explain the necessary details. Most of the time, he would talk only about principles and knowledge.

When she first encountered all sorts of shocking information that was contrary to modern medicine, she would ask questions but Shanks never once explained it to her.

Eventually, she did not ask any more questions.

Although what Shanks taught her was different from conventional medicine, he was undoubtedly the best.

Doubts would not hold well with Shanks.

Luca hated the Island of Despair because she was forced to be separated from the love of her life and her children. They even detained her little daughter to make her do things against her conscience.

Nevertheless, she was grateful to Shanks, who taught her everything he knew without reservation.

"It's amazing." Vivian could not help but mutter. She had heard from Ray about Luca's medical skills.

She has not seen it in person, but Luca's remarks made her begin to believe in Luca's medical knowledge.

"Luca, you're amazing," she praised Luca while looking at her approvingly.

"No, these are ancient traditions. It's just that few people know about them," Luca said. This knowledge was gained when Shanks traveled around the world previously.

"I have to learn more from you in the future!" Vivian said. She had a hunch that she could learn a lot from being friends with Luca.

"If you're interested, I can tell you all of this when the time comes." Luca was not a stingy person. When it was about to get dark, Vivian sent Luca back to the hotel.

Luca headed upstairs after she grabbed the shopping bags from the bodyguard.

She swiped the card and opened the door of the suite. She saw Luke in the living room.

"You're back?" Luke heard the door open and looked at her.

"Yes, Mr. Crawford." Luca was a little surprised. Luke was the only one in the suite. Jason and Mr. Zac were absent.

'Are the preparations for the contract completed?'

Luke maneuvered the wheelchair and headed toward her. "What did you get?"

Luca glanced at the bags and explained, "Some children's books and skincare products..."

Luke nodded. Gale's men told him all about where Luca went and what she did. He knew everything even if she did not tell him anything.

He knew all about her being harassed by Pierre and Vivian's bodyguards stepping in.

Luca hesitated for a few seconds, then said, "Mr. Crawford, I was shopping with Miss Vivian today and bumped into the second young master of the Mallory family. He's still in Russia. I think..."

She stopped talking.

Luke stared at her and said, "What are you thinking about?"

"I think that he might be planning something. Be careful..." Luca said.

Although Pierre had no influence in Russia, he must know Abel since he bought the tender from him.

Maybe he also had other organizations working for him.

Luca was not worried about Pierre making a move himself. She was worried that he would pay someone to do it.

"You're worried about me?" Luke asked directly as he controlled the wheelchair to be a little closer to her.

Luca's heart beat like a drum all of a sudden, the nerves all over her body bursting with numbness. Her body tried to make her say yes.

However, she could never say it.

Luca forcibly suppressed her body and said, "If something happens to you, the kids will be sad. Please be careful not to be tricked by Pierre."

"Luca, are these words from the bottom of your heart?" Luke asked. owns all content.

Luca pursed her lips, and after a minute, she said, "Yes."
