"This is a long-term investment. I'm certain no one will object. Besides, it's about time for your research to go public," Luke whispered in her ear. He was a little emotional.

Luca's research was well-received after several clinical trials.

The company's marketing department conducted a survey and found that if they priced it right, most medical institutions expressed interest in purchasing the drug in bulk for their patients.

As such, they did not have to worry that it would not sell.

Luca hummed softly. Her mind went blank as Luke approached her. "Mr. Crawford, are you sure you want to do this?"

"Mm, this decision is right for the company's future." Luke pressed his lips on her neck.

Luca followed his movements and fell onto the bed. She went soft as she felt his tender and fiery kisses.

As they rolled in the hay, no one noticed that Luca's phone lit up and then dimmed again.

The night was dark, and the fiery heat that went on in their room was in stark juxtaposition with the cold weather outside.

The next day.

Luca woke up feeling unwell, only to find that Luke was already up.

After she washed up, she picked up her phone to see an unread text.

The long number made her vigilant. The length of the number was like garbled characters. She glanced at the messy bed and lost the mood to clean up.

Luca turned her gaze back to her phone screen.

The text message was likely from someone on the Island of Despair.

Luca bit her lip and clicked on the text with her trembling fingers. It was the familiar garbled code. After she quickly translated it, she understood the text that Abel sent. [Did you have a good New Year?]

Although it was a question, she saw through his ridicule and malicious intent...
