Chapter 3237 Stalling For Time

Luca noticed a change in Pierre's expression.

She reckoned that they had already found something out, so she said, "It looks like you found something. I think you'd better let us go."

"No!" Karen's tone was assertive. "No matter what, you have to perform dry needling on Pierre today."

Luca frowned in silence.

Pierre set his phone aside. A mocking gleam flashed across his eyes. "Yeah, you'll be performing dry needling on me today, no matter what."

He did not plan on having Luca perform dry needling on him for the long term. The room was filled with surveillance cameras.

As long as he got one more session from her, another naturopathic physician could learn from the footage afterward.

This was the plan Pierre and Karen came up with.

They could not afford to offend Luke's people, but if they had to, they would do it once and then send Luca back unharmed.

"Anyway, if you don't help me with the dry needling, I'll be useless. The Mallory family doesn't need useless trash. But this woman got dragged into it because of you. It wouldn't look good for Luke, right?" Pierre threatened menacingly, betting that Luca only knew this woman because of Luke.

If anything happened to her, not only would the Mallory family be in trouble, but so would Luke.

Luca had deep feelings for Luke and definitely would not want to see him in trouble.

*How despicable!" Luca realized that her plan to protect Vivian had been seen through.

However, it was a flawed plan to begin with.

After all, it was hastily put together. If Pierre decided to go all out, she had no way to stop him.

Vivian felt guilty, knowing she was Luca's weakness.

"Luca, people like him aren't worth your help. Just let him become a cripple!"

The word 'cripple' triggered Karen. She pulled a knife from a drawer and held it fiercely to Vivian's neck.

*If my son becomes a cripple, you won't live either! You're the lady of an underground organization, right? I don't care who you are. Either Luca performs dry needling today, or you'll both die here!"
