Chapter 1080 Teenage Crush


    Eler nodded and said shyly, "It was so scary just now. Fortunately, Mr.


    Shanks was there to help..."


    Bianca''s expression was calm when Eler mentioned Shanks again.


    She noticed how shy Eler would get whenever she mentioned Shanks. It was exactly how a 19-year-


    old girl would act when she had a crush on someone.


    Eler noticed that Bianca was silent. The thoughts in her mind were overwhelming her, so she blushed


    and asked, "Miss, you''re more knowledgeable than me. What kind of girls do you think Mr. Shanks


    likes?"


    Bianca shook her head to indicate that she had no clue.


    Abel had once mentioned that the reason why Shanks was helping him retaliate against Luke was that


    the love of his life died from the bombing of the Russian army.


    From that, she could determine that Shanks was a loyal and affectionate man. No other woman could


    hope to have a happy ending falling in love with him.


    "Sister!" Amur walked in, his expression instantly changing when he heard what Eler said.


    Eler was taken aback as she did not expect that her secret would be overheard by someone else.


    "Amur..." She was a little upset that Amur had heard it.


    Their vige was destroyed and their parents were killed. Amur hated everyone on the Ind of


    Despair, including Shanks.


    Amur''s expression was sour, but he did not want toment in front of Bianca. Hence, he said, "Sister,


    can I talk to you outside?"


    Eler pursed her lips and looked reluctant.


    She also hated the people from the Ind of Despair, but Shanks was excluded. She fell for him


    because she believed that Shanks was a good person.


    Bianca felt the tension and persuaded Eler. "Go. It''s best that both of you clear things up."


    Eler reluctantly walked out to avoid disturbing Bianca. Amur closed the door.


    Seeing that her involvement was no longer required, Biancay on the bed and closed her eyes.


    "You like Shanks?!" Amur''s eyes were red as molten anger rolled through him. He asked directly


    without thinking whether it would hurt Eler’s feelings.


    "Mr. Shanks is very nice." Eler retorted with a blushed face, her lips trembling slightly. She did not


    understand why he was so disgusted.


    Shanks was different from the others on the Ind of Despair.


    "Sister, you can''t fall for the men here. They''re horrible people." Amur was overwhelmed by emotions


    and grabbed her shoulders.


    Although he was thin and weak, he was still taller than her.


    Eler looked up at her brother and said, "Amur, he’s different from others. Others hurt us, but Mr. Shanks


    would never. He treated you before... How can you forget the kindness he has shown you?" "Forget?


    Sister, you''re the one who has forgotten!" Amur was irritable seeing that he could not persuade her to


    change her mind. He turned around and kicked the wall a few times. Months of training had made


    Amur stronger. He could see cracks in the bricks.


    "Amur, what are you doing?!" Eler immediately grabbed his arm. If Abel saw Amur acting like this, he


    would be locked up.


    Amur''s face was contorted with rage. He turned to look at Eler and said," Have you forgotten that our


    parents died because of the poisonous gas? Aside from Mr. Shanks, who else do you think has the


    capability to create that poisonous gas?"


    When Abel led the mobsters to attack the vige, he took away all the youngborers. Hethen ordered


    for the remaining middle-aged and elderlyborers to be locked in a house where poisonous gas was


    released.


    Their parents were also inside that house...


    Eler was taken back. She said, "Mr. Shanks'' drugs are used to save people.

    The poisonous gas may have been created by others..."


    Amur was disappointed that Eler was obsessively siding with Shanks. "On the entire ind, he is the


    only one with that ability." ''Others? Does she think that the blockheaded mercenaries have the ability to


    create poisonous gas?’ "That’s impossible..." Eler still refused to believe him.


    "I created it." Out of the blue, Shanks'' voice sounded.


    Eler and Amur turned to look at him. Eler’s face was pale. She could not believe what she just heard.


    "Mr. Shanks, how could you?" "The poison gas you''re talking about is indeed my creation. I prefer to


    study drugs that can killpared to those that can save lives." Shanks'' blue pupils were motionless


    and reminded Eler of a bottomless abyss. She was unsure whether what he said was the truth.


    Eler took two steps back, her eyes filled with despair. She could not believe that she had fallen for a


    murderer.


    Amur was shaking uncontrobly. His hands curled into fists, and he wanted to kill Shanks.


    Bianca opened the door of the room and looked at Eler and Amur with a cold expression. When Amur


    was about to lose control, she said slowly," Eler, Amur,e in."


    Amur was stunned. His mind was filled with thoughts of revenge, but Bianca’s words snapped him out


    of it.


    Eler turned around, held Amur''s hand, and rushed into the room.


    After they walked in, Bianca nodded slightly and shut the door without bothering about Shanks.


    Shanks looked at the brown iron door, then turned and walked toward the researchb.


    In the room, Eler broke down. She squatted in a corner and silently cried while covering her face.


    Bianca ignored her. Her gaze fell on Amur, who was still clenching his fists. She said, "Do you think you


    can beat Shanks up just after a few months of training?"


    Amur''s body shook, and he stood up straight in an instant. His clenched fists loosened and tightened


    again and again.


    Bianca shook her head. Amur was blinded by hatred and could only think about the poisonous gas that


    killed his parents. He failed to see the bigger picture.


    She said, "Amur, even without Shanks, your parents would''ve still died.


    When Abel attacked your vige, he had already nned to deal with those who stood in his way.


    Shanks is not the only one you should me." As an outsider, she was well aware of Abel''s


    wickedness. If Abel wanted to kill someone, he would do it no matter the cost-even if it meant risking


    his life.


    Amur loosened his fists and stood there weakly. His head drooped, and he felt like a desperate loser.


    He was burning with rage earlier and eager to avenge his parents, so he chose Shanks as his primary


    target.


    One of the reasons was because Shanks was the creator of the poisonous gas. The other reason was


    that Shanks looked gentle and weak, so he thought that Shanks would not be able to fend for himself.


    However, Bianca knew that one should never judge a book by its cover. Shanks may appear gentle, but


    if Bianca had not appeared just now, Amur might have alreadynded a punch and things would have


    taken a turn for the worse.


    Maybe Shanks would have killed him, which would then drag Bianca and Eler down with him.


    "Miss, I''m sorry." Amur apologized. Bianca''s words made him realize that his enemy was Abel, while


    Shanks and the others were just his tools.


    Even if the tools were dealt with, he may not be able to get the pleasure of revenge.


    Bianca said, "I’m d you’re seeing things clearly now. The training that you’re receiving during this


    period is not for you to exact your revenge now. You''re not strong enough, and people who are not


    strong enough should not be thinking about revenge. It''ll only lead to meaningless sacrifices.


    Take a breather and think about you and Eler. Amur, you have a long way to go. You need to get


    stronger."
