Luca was surprised. Did he find more medicinal herbs?

That was quick.

Even though this industry networking event was not huge, the venue was sizable with so many pharmaceutical merchants and herbalists around.

Luca wondered how many people Luke had dispatched to find these medicinal herbs one after another so quickly...

"Found more?" Luca did not realize her voice was trembling as she spoke.

Warren nodded and replied, "Yes, Mr. Turner found another batch, but Mr. Crawford wanted me to ask if you still want to purchase all of them this time?"

Warren spoke in a low voice. After Luca pondered for a few seconds, she replied, "Not for now. Just let me know the booth number. Oh, and ask Mr. Turner to purchase a few medicinal herbs and keep them aside."

"Alright." Warren knew what she meant. She wanted Evan to make a small purchase and then inform her of the booth number.

Luca had no intention of making a large purchase.

Warren left again after receiving her instructions.

Luca stood in the venue and continued wandering aimlessly. She was not worried about Abel causing trouble for her anymore. If she continued to search, she could tell him that there was another booth that could provide him with the herbs he wanted.

She did not know what Abel and Shanks were researching since they were looking for so many poisonous herbal medicines. Her intuition told her it was not simple.

Thus, she did not want them to smoothly collect all the medicinal herbs.

What if the drugs they were researching were meant to harm Luke or Nyla...

Luca dared not think further.

She knew Shanks would not harm people indiscriminately, but Abel would.

Moreover, if Abel really intended to harm someone she valued, Shanks would not warn her either. Therefore, she had to be cautious.
