Luca walked in after the door was opened.

She was surprised to see Abel sitting on the chair. He was actually in A City…

Back then when she was on the Island of Despair, she often saw Abel in A City. The errands were always run by someone else.

Ever since she got out of the island, the chances of him being in A City were higher. Sometimes, Luca thought that he did not rebuild the Island of Despair for the sake of money. It was to deal with Luke Crawford.

Luke Crawford was a thorn in his heart. He wanted to get rid of it, and she was his tool.

“Why are you so late?” Abel complained and glanced at the time. She was half an hour late for the appointment.

“Your reckless way of doing things has caused me to be followed closely by his men now. I needed some time to get rid of them,” Luca explained with many grievances in her tone.

Abel listened to her and chuckled. Then, he made eye contact with his men.

His subordinate received his signal and handed the vial to Luca.

Luca shook the vial and stared at the color of the antidote which was the same as the previous ones. Thinking that Abel dared not do anything now, she opened it and drank the antidote in front of everyone.

There was not even a drop left.

Abel looked at her actions and said, “I did everything I could to get you close to Luke Crawford, yet you tried so hard to escape. Luca, you’ve double-crossed me, so don’t complain anything more.”

Luca knew he was referring to her staying together with Nina at the hotel.

She replied coldly, “I did that for the sake of getting the antidote. I’m being watched by the caretaker in the apartment every day. How was I supposed to get out?”

Abel listened to her disingenuous explanation, but whatever. He would not believe it either.

“Luca, you can get rid of those bodyguards and the caretaker. Return after two days and stay there. Follow Luke’s arrangement and just do everything he wants you to do. I want you to clear up his doubts within a month.” Abel gave her the final order. It was obvious that he was extremely dissatisfied with Luca’s progress.
