Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 2962

Abel had more missions for her...

Luca's heart sank as she had a bad feeling about this.

She knew that T Corporation had been busy preparing their suburban development project bidding, and this project was crucial to T Corporation.

If they succeeded in winning the project, T Corporation would get to work closely with the government, and their sales would sky-rocket.

Luca felt apprehensive about this. Could it be that Abel had the sidea?

Last time, she deceived Luke and stole his bidding document, but it did not cost him much damage.

This time, however, she was much more reluctant to do it.

At that time, Luke prepared an extra copy because he knew that Pierre had other motives, but what about this time? Was he aware that the Island of Despair was waiting for the opportunity to pounce on him?

"Amur..." Luca felt how dry her throat was.

Amur silently waited for her to continue.

"Do you know his plan?" Luca asked, eager to find out what Abel was up to as she theorized his ultimate goal.

"Only those who are involved know what he's up to." Amur sounded impatient. He wanted to smoke a cigarette, but he had already finished the entire pack of cigarettes that was in his car.

Without them, he becincreasingly irritable, but no places nearby sold cigarettes.

"Right, I forgot.." Luca sounded helpless. Abel had not contacted her all this while. If not for the antidote she had to drink every month, she would have forgotten that she was from the Island of Despair.

Could she find out what Abel was up to?

Then, Amur added, "Abel didn't calone this time. Shanks cwith him."

Amur had a good impression of Shanks.

Shanks may be cold to everyone on the Island of Despair, but he would still help them out whenever they were facing problems.

Although Shanks and Abel were closely associated, almost everyone on the Island of Despair was indebted to Shanks.

Therefore, everyone called him Uncle Shanks.

"He's here too?" Luca was surprised as Shanks rarely left the island.

He chose to work for Abel because of how secluded the Island of Despair is, and no one would disturb him there. If it were not extremely important, he would not leave the island.

Luca was surprised to hear that he was here.

"He may have cto look for you. If you can't leave, I can help," said Amur. Over the years, there had been quite a number of people who learned medicine from Shanks.

However, everyone's skill level was vastly different. Those who managed to enter the Island of Despair may be in good health, but they were not that gifted intellectually. After all these years, the only student Shanks was satisfied with was Luca.

As for the others who learned from him, Shanks only taught them the tip of the iceberg to ensure that they knew what to do if they got injured when carrying out missions.

As for Luca, Shanks taught her almost everything he knew because of her talent.

However, Luca chose to learn only the topics she was interested in because there was too much for her to learn, and it was impossible for her to spend all her tlearning from Shanks as Abel would never allow it.

Either way, Luca was still Shanks' favorite.

Therefore, Amur guessed that Shanks would want to meet Luca.

"Alright, thank you. Please keepupdated on this. I'll also stop by the apartment in a few days. Will you be there?" Luca did not know why Shanks left the Island, but even if he went looking for her, she was certain that he would not assign her an impossible task.

Besides, Shanks was different from Abel.

Practically every mission of Abel's involved death. Although Shanks always had his way when it came to saving people, his missions were usually harmless.

"No problem." Amur touched his bruised and swollen face. Although his injuries healed much faster than others, there would still be sscarring for the next couple of days.

He said, "I'm busy for the next couple of days, so don't cduring this period."

"Alright, callagain if there's any news," said Luca as she looked toward the laboratory. She had walked out when she received Amur's call, but there were two researchers standing by her spot now, waiting for her. She guessed that something was wrong. "I have to go now."

"Alright," replied Amur as he waited for her to hang up first.

He looked down with complex emotions in his eyes.

He did not want Luca to be hurt, but it was certain that Abel would hurt her...

Amur put his phone aside and gripped the steering wheel. After looking back at the base, he drove off.

No matter how hard it may be, he would not let Luca get hurt.

In the evening, Luca cback half an hour later than usual because something had gone wrong with the experiment.

When she got back, the kids were already done with their work. When they saw her coming, they gathered around her. "Ms. Luca, you're back."

Seeing the kid's faces made Luca smile. Her fatigue from work and exhaustion from Abel was half gone when she saw the kids. "I'm back. Have you finished your homework?" “We're good kids. Of course, we finished it, but Daddy is coming back late today too. Our homework hasn't been checked yet," said Tommy.

Luke is coming back late?

Luca was not surprised as T Corporation was very busy now. If the company was busy, of course, the CEO would be busy too. It was only natural that he had to work overtime. Luca patted the kid's head and said, "Should I check your homework first?"

"Okay!" the three kids said in unison.

The three of them had quite a lot of homework today, but they had already done a lot at school. It did not take them long to finish it at home.

After picking up the children's workbooks, Luca began examining their work.

Not long after, Aunt Neile cout of the kitchen. "Is Ms. Craw back?"

"Yes, Aunt Neile," said Rainie.

Aunt Neile saw Luca sitting on the sofa and said, "Ms. Luca, since you're back, why don't you have dinner first? Ms. Rainie, Young Master Tommy, and Young Master Blanche haven't eaten since they got back. I'm worried that they'll be hungry."

Luca looked at Aunt Neile and asked, "Shouldn't we wait for Mr. Crawford?"

"Huh? Didn't he tell you?" Aunt Neile looked at Luca questioningly.

"Tellwhat?" Luca put down the children's workbooks with sconfusion. Luke was not the type of person to not account for things. If he was coming hlate, he would message her to let her know.

"Mr. Crawford isn't coming back for dinner today. He's going to the hosp—"

Before Aunt Neile could finish, Lanie interrupted her, "Daddy has to work overtime, so he won't be back for dinner. Ms. Luca, let's eat first."

Luca frowned after she heard what Aunt Neile said. Although she did not finish her sentence, her intuition told her that Luke was in the hospital right now.

Aunt Neile knew, and it seemed like the children knew too. She was the only one out of the loop.
