Chapter 1217 He Did Not Appreciate the Opportunity

Luca did not expect the matter to blow up when she decided to mail the package to Queenie.

She had expected the Normans to keep the matter under wraps, even if Queenie had to go to the hospital for a checkup. Naturally, she had forgotten about Luke's involvement.

Luke's status meant that his mere presence would cause drama. Luca knew that all the reporters would want to pin a camera on him if they could.

His frequent appearances in the hospital gained attention. When Queenie's report was released, the media outlets reported on it.

The reporters continued to find information about her toxicology test and the reasons behind her poisoning. Naturally, they also found out about the antidote in the mysterious package.

The development of the matter had exceeded Luca's expectations, and she was not sure how to deal with it.

Luke turned around and looked coldly at her.

Luca lowered her head and did not meet his gaze.

Luke opened the door and left.

The moment the door closed, Luca fell on the bed and gasped for air.

Even though she had taken the antidote, the effects of the drug were very taxing to the body. She was completely spent after confronting Luke for that long, and she would have collapsed out of exhaustion if the confrontation continued.

She continued to lie on the bed, even though her hair was still wet. She had to sleep now to regain her energy.

Meanwhile, Abel received a voice message from the deputy president, saying that Luke had already left the hotel room without anyone following him.

"Too bad he doesn't appreciate the chance I've given him." Abel chuckled.
