Chapter 3262 Who Started The Fire

*Gale's handling it. Don't worry," said Luke.

Luca rubbed her eyes and replied, "I'm going to have to take another leave this morning. Good thing you're the boss. If it were someone else, I'd probably be fired by now."

Luke's gaze deepened. "I'll have Rain and the others keep an eye on things."

"That's fine, but try not to let them blow their cover. I might get hit once or twice today, but it's all part of proving my innocence. Don't worry, Abel won't go too hard on me," Luca assumed.

Luke instantly regretted his decision when he heard this.

Perhaps it would have been better to hold off a little longer.

Regardless of the situation, he would still be worried. Now that things were set in motion, there was no turning back.

"Take care of yourself." He planted a kiss on her forehead.

Luca smiled, trying to reassure him. "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

She got out of bed, quickly washed up, and left without eating breakfast.

Aunt Neile noticed her rushing out and could not help but ask, "Mr. Crawford, is Ms. Craw busy today?"

"Yes." Luke nodded. As he watched her leave, he wished could follow her and protect her.

However, he could not.

He could not neglect Nyla, who was still on the Island of Despair, just to protect Luca.

He had not even met his daughter yet. Still, their blood bond made it impossible for him to ignore her.

As he thought to himself, he murmured, 'Luca, please be safe.'

Luca arrived at the hotel and gave Abel's room number.

The receptionist handed her a keycard and muttered, "Weird, why are so many people visiting this guest today?" Luca raised an eyebrow. "A lot of people have already been here?"

The receptionist nodded, giving her a strange look. "Yes, a lot of men have already gone up. You're the only woman. Just don't cause any trouble in the hotel, okay? If something bad happens, it'll be a big problem."
