"What are you staring at?" After Abel hung up the phone, he looked at the translator whose face was pale white. He then realized that she could understand what he was saying.

He figured this woman must have been scared by what he had just said.

However, Abel did not intend to explain anything to her. He hired her to be his translator, and he was the boss. Did it matter if she heard the threats?

She did not have any evidence to prove anything about him.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Abel." The translator came back to her senses after thinking about how frightening he was. She apologized to Abel with a lowered head. Then, she asked, "Would you like to look around now?"

Abel looked disdainfully at the bustling venue.

Initially, there were not many people who came to the networking event. Now, it was crowded all because of Luke.

Moreover, the venue was mostly open-air. Even though there were large fans blowing air around, as the afternoon approached, the weather became increasingly hot and humid.

Abel, being a native Russian, could not tolerate such humidity.

However, he needed to help Shanks find medicinal herbs now. Abel glanced around the venue. He could not spot Shanks and had no idea where he had gone.

Shanks was a medical genius who was particularly passionate about researching naturopathy.

He believed it was something passed down from the millennia-old civilization of A City. It was far superior to Western medicine, with plenty of room for research.

Therefore, whenever he encountered herbal medicine, he would be excited to study it thoroughly.

"Where did he go..." Abel could not help but wonder. None of the others on the Island of Despair had a talent for medicine, and neither did he.

Still, he needed to help now. Without Shanks, he figured he could easily be deceived at any moment.

"Are you referring to Mr. Shanks?" asked the translator. Shanks understood English. Even though he could not speak fluently, regular communication posed no problem.

Therefore, the translator's most important task was to translate for Abel.
