Abel fell silent. Using Kassy for experiments? Absolutely not!

The thought that Luca might be doing things behind his back sparked a fierce determination in Abel's eyes. No matter what, he had to know if Luca was doing anything behind his back right now!

With this in mind, Abel put out his cigar and walked outside.

The venue's people were already ushering the crowd out at this moment. If he stayed here any longer, he would be kicked out soon.

When Shanks saw Abel leaving, he followed him and left too.

Indeed, Luca was doing things behind Abel's back.

When Luke's men discovered the fourth medicinal ingredient, she made a ruthless decision to have Warren inform them to purchase all of it from the herbalist.

However, they could not buy the herb under Luke's name. They had to set up a random company and purchase all of it on the spot and take it away.

Luke's men did exactly as she instructed.

Fortunately, the herbalist did not have much stock either—just a few pounds. Now, the fourth herb was in the trunk of Luke's car.

Since there were important herbs in the car, Warren sat in the car waiting for the rest to finish their meal when they went to have dinner.

After dinner, Luke asked Warren to send Evan back to the hotel first.

After Warren took Evan to the hotel, Luke gave him some money to have a good meal himself. Then, he personally drove back to the Crawfords' ancestral home in X City.

Considering that Otto was around, Luca dared not to check the herbs that were in the trunk of the car in the garden. She could only pretend that there was nothing in the trunk.

She suppressed the slight excitement in her heart, greeted Otto, and made her way upstairs with Luke.

After they came upstairs, Luca closed the bedroom door.

Luke came over to check the bruise on her abdomen, but he heard her ask, "Is this really okay?"

"There won't be any problem," Luke replied affirmatively.
