Chapter 3379 Stay Right Here And Wait For Me

Sensing the looming danger fading away, Hera furiously demanded, "What is wrong with that man?"

Gerald let out a sigh of relief. He had been truly worried that Shanks might take a few swipes at Hera.

It was common knowledge that medical professionals could be terrifyingly skilled. They could cut with precision, avoiding vital organs, leaving you in excruciating pain but far from death.

Cerald had witnessed Luca's expertise in this field and knew Shanks likely had the same skills. That was why he would not dare provoke him.

If Hera ended up hurt and miserable, Abel would hold them accountable for failing to protect her. Shanks, however, would walk away unscathed. The blame would fall squarely on them.

"Ms. Sanchez, Mr. Shanks doesn't like people entering his lab without permission. Everything in there is extremely valuable to him." Even though Gerald did not understand why, it was what the others told him, and he dutifully passed on the message.

"I knocked, and he told me to come in." The expression on Hera's face was icy cold.

"It's not the same. When he said 'come in, he just meant you could open the door, not actually step inside," clarified Gerald. Inside the lab was one big shot, and outside was another.

Clearly, the big shot outside was harder to deal with, and unfortunately, she was his responsibility.

Cerald felt a headache coming on.

"What's with all the rules? Isn't he just working for Abel like the rest of us? Weirdo," Hera muttered coldly. As she was about to leave, she noticed Luca stepping out of another room.

Her eyes darkened as she recalled Luca's earlier warming, which she had brushed off at the time.

"Stop right there," Hera commanded sharply.

Gerald's heart skipped a beat. He secretly cursed his bad luck. 'Oh no, she's about to cause trouble again!'

Luca stopped, her gaze icy and indifferent as she looked over. "What now? Getting kicked out by Mr. Shanks wasn't enough for you? What else do you want?"

Gerald's heart skipped again.

He could not afford to offend either of these women.
