I'm pregnant Sir Behave Yourself by Daphne

Chapter 1722 On The Verge Of Death

The next day, Luca opened her eyes as she woke up. She rubbed them.

Indeed, there were tears in them.

After the video call last night, she took some pills and fell asleep. She had nightmares all night. In her dreams, she was locked in a cage. When she looked out, she saw her youngest daughter, Nyla, getting tortured by Abel.

She screamed and yelled in her dream, calling Luke's name and hoping that he could save their child.

However, no matter how many times she called out, Luke never showed up in her dreams. There was only the sound of her miserable shouts and Nyla's cries.

Luca clenched her fists and covered her chest with her hands. Her heart was still aching after a night of torture.

"Nyla...” she called out in a soft voice. Then, she opened her phone gallery and found her child's photos.

Nyla was smiling innocently in the photos. Luca felt a sharp pain in her heart.

Luca stared at the photos for a while before she kept her phone away. Today was her official first day back at work. She could not be late.

After washing up, she made herself a simple breakfast. Then, she changed into her office wear and went downstairs.

She walked out of the neighborhood, planning to head to the place where she could hail a ride. However, she saw Jean walking carefreely toward her.

Luca stopped walking. She looked at him, not intending to avoid him. She knew she could not run away from an ignorant man like Jean.

Jean was secretly rejoicing when he saw her standing there waiting for him. He trotted toward her and asked caringly, “Dr. Craw, are you going to work today?"

Luca looked at Jean and glanced at a few gangsters who were standing not far away from them. She reckoned that they came with Jean.
