The researcher gave up convincing them when he realized no one was going.


    Ambrose was wrong for stealing the sample. It was understandable that they wanted to disassociate


    themselves from him.


    On the other hand, Luca sat in her office and continued to study the project.


    Luca studied the new research project until it was almost lunch break, and only then did Rhett hand her


    the sample report.


    “Dr. Craw, here''s the report." Rhett handed the report to her.


    “Thank you." Luca had a feeling that she might have sessfully developed the antidote when she


    took the report from him.


    The previous reports had shown that she was close to the sample that she had stored.


    Luca opened the report after Rhett left her office.


    The moment she saw the data, she dared not be careless. She took out the previous sample data and


    compared them a few times. She eventually put a smile on her face.


    She did it.


    This time, the sample data matched the previous data of the liquid extracted.


    Besides, the medicine showed that it was able to negate the effects of the poison in Amur''s and Luca''s


    blood samples.


    Luca held the report tightly. She felt like she was dreaming.


    Luca had started nning to develop the antidote when she got out of the Ind of Despair. She


    withdrew a lot of blood and tried mixing the chemicals to develop the antidote several times.


    However, she had always failed.


    It was only when Luke came up with a n and provided her with more advanced equipment was Luca


    able to develop the antidote.


    Luca could not help but rejoice after trying to develop the antidote for the past few months.


    She even had the urge to tell everything she had been through to Luke.


    However, Luca eventually calmed herself down when she realized there were still many uncertainties in


    the future.


    She had to make a n because the Ind of Despair was something that could not be ignored.


    Even though she had gotten the secret form of the antidote, if she identally made a mistake, it


    would lead to more mistakes.


    Luca''s and N''s lives were already in danger. She could not risk putting Luke in danger, especially


    when Abel had always wanted him dead.


    Luca picked up her phone and called Amur.


    The call was answered. Luca did not ask about his mission. Instead, she asked where Amur was.


    “When are youing back to A City?"


    Amur''s voice came from the other end of the line, "I''m on my way back to A City now."


    Luca was surprised to know that. Did he not just kidnap Pierre? Why was he already on his way back


    to A City?


    "Okay. Let''s have dinner tonight. I''ll prepare dinner," suggested Luca.


    "Sure." Amur was delighted to hear that. He would never reject her invitations to have meals together.


    "What time are youing? Do I have to prepare anything?"


    Luca could hear that he sounded more energetic after that. Previously, after she saved him and got him


    out of the prisoner camp, it would cheer him up every time she prepared meals for him.


    Amur told her that the food given to the prisoners in the camp was like pig feed. It made him think that


    that was how the food tasted.


    It was until he had the meals Luca prepared for him.


    They were the best meals he ever had.


    "Do I need to prepare anything?" Amur repeated when he noticed Luca had not replied to him.


    Luca came back to her senses. She smiled and said, "No, I''ll get the ingredients. You''ve been staying


    up all night. Get some rest when you''re back at the apartment."


    Luca''s reminder was heartwarming. Amur rolled down the car window a little. The cool breeze blew


    across his face, and he caught a whiff of floral scent in the air.


    It was the season when flowers began to bloom.


    "Luca," called Amur.


    "Yes?" As Luca looked at the report, her heart was still filled with joy.


    "The spring in A City is as beautiful as you said," Amur remembered that he was sitting beside Luca


    and N two years ago when Luca was telling N how beautiful spring was in A City.


    Amur had always been living on the Ind of Despair. He forgot what the four seasons looked like.


    He was like N, who had only ever lived on the ind. There was no day and night, and no seasons.


    That was why when he heard Luca say those things, he could not help but wonder what the four


    seasons were like.


    Was spring really as beautiful like Luca said?


    If the wind during spring was gentle, it should be like Luca''s smile, beautiful and gentle.


    "Indeed." Luca rose to her feet and looked outside the window.


    It was just that she was in a concrete jungle, and she could hardly find any traces of spring now.


    However, spring had arrived, indeed.


    The rose bushes outside Norman Residence came across her mind. The wall would be covered with


    flower buds when Queenie got discharged from the hospital.


    “See you tonight," said Amur.


    "Alright." Luca put on a faint smile. The spring in A City was mesmerizing.


    Now that she had developed the antidote, she was one step closer to bringing N and Eler to A City


    to take a look at the four seasons here.

    After the call ended, Amur continued to drive. The toll station was right in front of him.


    He drove past the station.


    He had arrived at A City.


    As Amur watched the worlde alive, he remembered Luca''sughter when they were on the phone


    a moment ago. She seemed to be in a good mood.


    It seemed like the reason she suggested that they had dinner together tonight was not because of


    Pierre.


    Could it be that something good had happened to her?


    Suddenly, Abel''s words came across Amur''s mind. "Is it really worth it to do this for Ivana? She''s


    sleeping on Luke''s bed now, and she has be his woman again. Will she be moved by what you''re


    doing for her? Is she going to devote herself to you?"


    Amur''s eyes darkened.


    Even though he wanted Luca to stay beside him and be his woman, he had never asked for those


    things.


    Abel had no idea about that.


    All he wanted was to protect Luca and make her happy.


    It would be enough for him as long as she was happy no matter whom she decided to live with.


    A traffic police officer stood in front of him. Amur came back to his senses. He parked the car beside


    the road as he was told by the police officer. He rolled down the window and looked at the police officer


    who bent down to look at him.


    Before he could say anything, he heard the police officer say, "We''ve got a foreigner. Do we have


    anyone who can speak German here?"


    "Sir, I can speak English," said Amur.


    "Oh, sir, that''s great. We''re going to search your vehicle. Please cooperate with us and get out of the


    car. Show us your passport and driving license. Open your car trunk too. Thank you," instructed the


    police officer.


    Amur did what he was told. He found the relevant documents in his wallet and showed them to the


    police officer. At the same time, he opened the car trunk for him.


    Amur had deliberately changed to another car when he returned to the city. He did not drive this car


    when he kidnapped Pierre. Hence, Amur was calm.


    When the police officer was checking his documents, Amur asked, "Sir, what''s going on here? Why are


    the police officers searching the cars all of a sudden?"


    "It''s just a routine inspection," answered the police officer.


    If it was a routine inspection, then the police officers were not searching the cars because of Pierre''s


    kidnapping.


    Amur reckoned that the Mallory family did not call the police when they found out that Pierre had been


    kidnapped.


    It would do no good to Pierre if they called the police as Pierre would have to be taken to the police


    station immediately once he was found.
