"I won't let you take the risk without a reasonable explanation," Luke said. Her complexion was doing much better, so he believed that she could participate in the meeting.

Jason was caught between them. He did not dare to breathe loudly for fear of being screamed at by either one of them.

Luca took a deep breath and quickly thought of a reason that could explain everything. "I was caught up with work and didn't pay much attention to the wound. It was infected with a type of fungus, but this fungus isn't ordinary. It took me some time to figure out what it was. I wrote a prescription for myself but forgot to bring it to Russia."

She did not take medicine in time, which caused the wound to be inflamed.

"What caused your wound?" Luke asked. If she gave him a reason, whatever it was, he would agree to let her attend the meeting.

He estimated that the meeting would not take too long as it was only an announcement of the results.

"I was robbed when I went to Amur's house. I resisted and got stabbed twice," Luca said.

Luke's expression was ashen. He did not believe her reason. It was only possible that the person hurt Luca when she was unguarded.

The person who could hurt her when she was unprepared must be someone familiar to her. He could be sure that the person who hurt her was not Amur.

Regardless, she had given him an explanation.

Moreover, he could launch an investigation in this direction.

"Pack up and let's get ready to go," Luke said.

Luca breathed a sigh of relief. She was glad that he agreed.

"Mr. Crawford, I'll go back to the room to get ready." She stood up, glanced at Luke, and walked back to her room.
