Karen recalled how Percy had only helped her to find Silas and then everything else was handled by her.

If only he had been willing to help handle everything, things would not have turned out so bad.

After all, Percy was much calmer when dealing with things.

If he had handled this matter himself, Silas would not have ended up half-dead at her hands.

The more Karen thought about this, the more uncomfortable she felt. She glanced at the news report again. Even though the situation was resolved, she could not feel happy at the moment.

At five in the afternoon, Luca left the laboratory on time and ensured other researchers also left on time. After clocking out, she left the building.

In the parking lot, she saw Luke's car parked in its designated spot and hurried over.

Lliam saw Luca and helped open the back door.

Luca bent to get into the car, but before she could sit down, Luke pulled her into his arms.

Sensing her unease, he chuckled lightly and said, "No need to rush."

"I wasn't." Luca's face slightly reddened. As she watched Lliam get into the car, she asked, "Are we drinking today?"

"Probably," replied Luke. He reckoned that Percy's dinner gathering would involve drinking. That was why he asked Lliam to drive.

"Oh, I forgot to bring some hangover medicine.” Luca frowned and thought about how uncomfortable Luke would be if he drank too much.

"It's alright." Luke shook his head, indicating it was not important. "Even if we drink tonight, we won't drink much. Jim isn't coming, so the main focus will be on dinner."

"Is Mr. Holston on a business trip?" Luca asked casually.
