Luca sighed, picked up her phone, and unlocked it. She felt a tightness in her chest when she saw that news article again.

When Luca woke up the next day, she gently wagged her head and found that she did not feel dizzy anymore.

Even though Abel had knocked her out, he did not leave her with an internal injury, and she was able to recover quickly.

She faced the mirror and began to remove the bandages around her head. The bandages were quite a bother, so she only put a band-aid over the wound.

“You’re awake, Ms. Craw!” The maid was about to call Luca for breakfast, but when she went into the bedroom, she found that Luca was already awake.

Luca nodded as she placed the band-aid on the cotton gauze.

“Are you dressing your wound? Do you need any help?” The maid asked.

“Don’t worry. I’ve already changed it,” Luca carefully ensured that the band-aid was stuck firmly to her forehead. She looked at her face in the mirror and realized that her complexion was terrible.

“Are you feeling better?” The maid was relieved to find that Luca did not blame her.

“I’m fine,” Luca said. After a full day of rest, she thought that she could even go to work.

“That’s good to know. Breakfast is served. Would you like to eat something?” The maid asked with a smile.

Luca nodded. “Alright, I’ll be out soon.”

“Alright,” the maid replied and left the bedroom.

Luca picked up her phone. Abel had not contacted her since the incident, and she did not report anything to Abel.

Even though she knew that Abel’s minions were keeping a close eye on her, she felt that she should tell him something.

Luca told Abel about her current situation, including that Luke was already suspecting that she was related to the Island of Despair and would soon discover his plans.

Two minutes later, she received a message from Abel containing only one word: [Continue.]
