After Luke left, it did not take long before Luca pulled herself together. She had something more important to do.

She could only fix her passive stance in this situation if she could develop the antidote. It felt uncomfortable to be under someone else's control.

The Island of Despair was powerful in both manpower and financial resources. It was because the members were under the drug's control.

If there was an antidote, the Island of Despair would break apart once the members were given the antidote.

Luca became even more determined to study and develop the antidote at the thought of this.

She took the sample out of the disinfection cabinet. The sample that she took from the straw did not disappoint her. The concentration was high enough. The next thing she needed to do was analyze the composition of it. Then, she would be able to develop the antidote.

Luca sat on the lab table and did her research quietly.

She stopped her research and talked to Tommy for a while when Tommy sent her a video call request before he slept.

A while into the call, Tommy got sleepy. Luca put her son to bed and hung up the video call.

Her children could always touch her heart...

She looked at her unfinished research and recalled the words that Tommy had told her. He asked her to rest earlier and not to stay up too late.

'Yes, it's better to not stay up too late.'

Luca put everything away and went to sleep after washing up.

It was midnight. The door was pushed open, and Luke dragged his tired body into the house. He looked at the dark living room and did not make any loud noises.

Luca should be asleep now.

However, judging from her vigilant personality, he reckoned that she had already woken up when he opened the door.

Luke did not intend to disturb her, but he wanted to reassure her that it was not some bad guy who came in. He thought for a while and called out her name softly, "Luca."
