Luke thought the only explanation that made sense was Luca's experiment must be kept secret.

The research she had been working on now was probably related to what was manipulating her.

Luke tapped his index finger on the armrest of the wheelchair. He looked like he was deep in thought.

Mrs. Laurel returned to the kitchen and continued her work without disturbing him.

At night.

Luca did not continue with her research as her equipment was not good enough. That was why she went downstairs to have dinner when Mrs. Laurel informed her that dinner was ready.

Luke would certainly ask Mrs. Laurel to bring her dinner upstairs if Luca did not go downstairs to have dinner.

Luca did not want to be given special treatment.

Neither of them spoke a word when they were having dinner.

Luca's phone suddenly rang.

She glanced at it, and after making sure that it was Amur who was calling her, she unconsciously turned to look in the direction where Luke was sitting. She said in a soft voice, “Please excuse me. I'm going to answer the call."

Luke did not say a word.

Luca took her phone and left the dining room. She did not have to conceal her conversation with Amur. Hence, she did not walk far away from the kitchen and answered the call in the living room.

"Amur, how did it go?"

"I went to visit the two labs that are available for rent. The first one has much more advanced facilities than the second one. But the price is much higher as well. Also, the owner of the first lab told me that he only rents it out on a monthly basis, so he's not accepting daily rentals. The second lab accepts daily rental," said Amur. He had gone around asking for the details as he knew Luca would only need a few days to figure out what drug Abel had given her.

Hence, it was not worth it if Luca had to rent the lab for a month.

"It's alright. Let's just go for the first one." Luca made up her mind. It did not matter how much she would have to pay as long as the facilities were advanced enough. "Can you help me to reserve it now?" "I've asked for both the owners' contact numbers. Are you sure you'd like to book the first one? I can contact the owner and get it done now. You can come over here to do the experiments once the contract has been signed." Amur respected Luca's choice.

They did not have to worry about money when they had such skills and capabilities.
