Chapter 3403 Every Move Luke Makes Is A Risky One

"Don't worry, it won't affect you in the slightest," said Abel.

The villa was bought under Shanks' name.

So while it appeared to be the Island of Despair's property, it was, in fact, Shanks' personal asset.

Abel shot a glance at his subordinates, who stood beside him. Without hesitation, they grabbed the doctor and hauled him away.

As Hera watched the scene unfold, she felt a sudden pang of unease. She was well aware of Abel's methods. Punishment was never off the table.

However, seeing the way things were unfolding, Hera could not shake the feeling that Abel might actually take the doctor's life.

Still, they were in A City, a country with strict laws. Would Abel really go that far? As Abel turned to leave, Hera said almost nervously, "Darling..."

"I have some matters to take care of. Be good and stay here. Don't wander around, okay?" Abel's mood was apparently lifted by the successful surgery. His voice was unexpectedly gentle.

Hera's unease only deepened. She grabbed the sleeve of his coat. "Darling, are you leaving again? I'm so bored I could die! Why don't you take me with you? I promise I won't cause any trouble."

Abel pulled his arm free. He looked at her with a smile that was neither fully a smile nor a frown. "Trust me. You wouldn't want to see what I'm about to do."

A chill ran down Hera's spine.

She suddenly had a bad feeling.

Would Abel actually kill someone?

How could that be possible?

The thought of his hands stained with blood yet still touching her made Hera shudder uncontrollably.

Being touched by someone with blood on their hands was no good omen. She feared that her own blood might soon stain Abel's hands as well.

As she watched the doctor being dragged away, Abel left with a smile on his face.

A wave of fear crept into her heart, and everything around her began to feel strangely surreal.

Abel's smile was laced with bloodthirsty cruelty.
