"Alright." Amur agreed and looked at the tender look in her eyes. He was full of unwillingness.

He was selfish and hoped that these unpleasant issues would be resolved as soon as possible.

With that, he would be able to return to the Island of Despair with Luca. Even if their days there were unpleasant, they could at least free themselves from the troubles here.

Luca did not realize that Amur had thought things through. After she was done comparing the documents, she then sent the maid a message, telling her that she would not be returning for dinner.

The maid replied: [Alright, Ms. Luca.]

Luca placed her phone down and ignored the message. She turned on the TV and watched it.

After having dinner, it was already eight at night.

Amur glanced at the scenery outside. It was pitch-black, and he was worried that it would be dangerous for Luca to return alone. He wanted to have her stay back. "It's getting late. Why don't you just stay here for the night? I've always been sleeping in the second bedroom, and the things in the master bedroom haven't been touched. You can sleep there."

Luca shook her head as she did not wish to spend the night here. She thought of Luke.

Even though he was handling issues regarding Dr. Albus, she was clueless about whether he would return to the villa. If he did return to the villa, no one would be there to look after him. It would not be convenient for him to do anything, including bathing.

"I think it's best if I return. Someone will come here to collect these documents. That way, I won't have to rush," said Luca. She looked at the clock. "Besides, it's not that late yet."

"Alright then. I'll see you off downstairs." Amur was aware of her feelings. He knew that she was rushing back because of that man.

Luca nodded her head.

They walked to the elevator. Her phone rang, and she picked it up to have a look only to see that it was a call from Luke.

Luca answered it, "Mr. Crawford."

"Are you still at your brother's apartment?" Luke immediately asked.

Luca looked at Amur and answered honestly, "I'm about to leave."

Amur, who was next to her, kept quiet. He felt that something was going on between both of them. It was only eight at night and the man was already calling her.
