Silence filled the bedroom as no one replied. It was as though his words fell on deaf ears.

Luke's hands trembled, and his heart could not help but beat faster. He had never felt this anxious before...

“Luca, if you don't say anything, I'm going in," he said, yet there was still no sound.

Luke put his left hand on the door handle and pushed the door open without hesitation.

The lights in the bedroom were off, so he fumbled around the switch to turn on the lights. Luca was not inside.

Luke walked to the closet and opened the door.

Luca's clothes were still hanging inside, along with her suitcase. It did not seem like she left.

The lump in his throat slowly disappeared. Although he did not know where Luca went, it seemed that she did not leave.

He took out his phone to call Luca.

Not being home this late meant that she must be busy with something, but it was hard to say what it was she was busy with.

Luke was worried that she was sent on another mission by the Island of Despair.

She had just returned. Even if the Island of Despair were to give her a mission, he did not think that now would be the time. Hence, he did not inform Gale and Rain to be on her tail here.

Listening to the ringing tone while waiting for the call to be answered annoyed Luke.

It rang about ten times but Luca did not answer. Luke frowned, and when the phone stated that the other end was currently unavailable, he dialed Aunt Neile's number.

Aunt Neile picked up the phone. "Mr. Crawford, it's late. What's the matter?"

"Why isn't Ms. Craw home?" asked Luke.

Aunt Neile replied, "Ms. Craw hasn't gone home yet? After you left, she said that she had some matters to take care of at the company."

"The company?" Luke frowned. What company matters could there possibly be that required her to handle?
