Chapter 3400 Luke's Demeanor Is So Much Like Lucius'

However, Abel was not fooled by her words.

He asked again, "Who are you looking for?"

"Oh, I'm looking for Gerald. I've noticed that most people are here, but Gerald is missing, so I was just curious," Hera replied honestly, knowing that Abel was naturally suspicious.

"I'm starting to feel like you've become quite close with Gerald recently," Abel asked suspiciously.

Hera froze for a moment, then laughed and explained, "I often ask him to help with little things. He might not have many qualities, but he's pretty diligent."

Abel did not respond right away, as though he was considering her words carefully.

Hera lowered her voice and teased, "What's the matter? Are you jealous?"

Before he could answer, she quickly added, "You're so outstanding. How could I ever be interested in some ordinary man?"

As soon as she said that, a flicker of unease crossed her mind.

Abel was far superior to Lucius in looks and wealth. However, she seemed to be more drawn to Lucius.

Despite her actions of trying to destroy what she could not have, she truly cared about Lucius.

Abel smiled, though it was not genuine.

Hera saw his expression and felt an inexplicable unease. It was as though something was about to happen.

The sun outside had gotten hotter, and Hera, feeling uncomfortably warm, turned to Abel and said, "Darling, it's too hot out here. Let's go inside."

"You go in first. Don't get a heatstroke." Abel was not exactly someone who did not know how to treat women with tender care, especially when Hera's eyes bore such an uncanny resemblance to Kassy's. It made him all the more protective and indulgent.

Unable to bear the heat, Hera nodded at his words and walked into the living room.

She noticed Luca sitting on the couch and snorted. "What are you doing here?"
