Chapter 3258 Shanks Is Lucky

"Come to the base now," instructed Abel.

Luca wanted to test why he was calling her there at this time, so she deliberately made things difficult. "But I've got something to do now."

"I don't care what it is. Just get to the base now," Abel cut her off and hung up.

Luca ended the call helplessly. It seemed like this was urgent. Abel did not even bother with the usual small talk.

Warren saved the recording and asked, "Are you heading there now?"

"Yes, I have to. I'll grab a cab. You can head home," replied Luca. Normally, she would call a cab, so there was no way she could drive there today.

As Luca opened the car door and was about to step out of the car, Warren asked, "Do you need someone to follow you secretly?"

"No." Luca declined without hesitation. "I'll be fine in A City."

If something were to happen, having someone follow would not make a difference anyway.

Luke's subordinates could not follow her into the base. Once she got inside, whether she was safe or not was beyond their control. It was up to her.

After all, nothing could be exposed right now.

"Alright, Ms. Craw. Please stay safe. As per protocol, I have to report this to the boss and Mr. Gale, Warren reminded her.

"Go ahead and tell them." Luca nodded. After closing the car door, she turned around and walked out of the community.

When she arrived at the entrance, she waited for a while before finally hailing a cab. Following her usual routine, she switched to another car halfway there. When she was near the base, Abel called again.

"Why aren't you here yet?" His tone was unpleasant.

"It was tough finding a cab. I'll be there soon," explained Luca.

Abel did not respond and just hung up.

Luca frowned. The more urgent his tone, the more uneasy she felt.
