Chapter 3088

    Abel fell silent. Using Kassy for experiments? Absolutely not!


    The thought that Luca might be doing things behind his back sparked a fierce determination in Abel''s


    eyes. No matter what, he had to know if Luca was doing anything behind his back right now!


    With this in mind, Abel put out his cigar and walked outside.


    The venue''s people were already ushering the crowd out at this moment. If he stayed here any longer,


    he would be kicked out soon.


    When Shanks saw Abel leaving, he followed him and left too.


    Indeed, Luca was doing things behind Abel''s back.


    When Luke''s men discovered the fourth medicinal ingredient, she made a ruthless decision to have


    Warren inform them to purchase all of it from the herbalist.


    However, they could not buy the herb under Luke''s name. They had to set up a randompany and


    purchase all of it on the spot and take it away.


    Luke''s men did exactly as she instructed.


    Fortunately, the herbalist did not have much stock either—just a few pounds. Now, the fourth herb was


    in the trunk of Luke''s car.


    Since there were important herbs in the car, Warren sat in the car waiting for the rest to finish their


    meal when they went to have dinner.

    After dinner, Luke asked Warren to send Evan back to the hotel first.


    After Warren took Evan to the hotel, Luke gave him some money to have a good meal himself. Then,


    he personally drove back to the Crawfords'' ancestral home in X City.


    Considering that Otto was around, Luca dared not to check the herbs that were in the trunk of the car in


    the garden. She could only pretend that there was nothing in the trunk.


    She suppressed the slight excitement in her heart, greeted Otto, and made her way upstairs with Luke.


    After they came upstairs, Luca closed the bedroom door.


    Luke came over to check the bruise on her abdomen, but he heard her ask, "Is this really okay?"


    "There won''t be any problem," Luke replied affirmatively.


    "But I''m still afraid..." Luca felt her heart beating rapidly, worried that something bad might happen.


    Even though Abel did not have anyone watch over her today, he would surely be suspicious since the


    collection of herbs did not go smoothly today.


    What if Abel suspected that she purchased the herbs and came to investigate? What should she do?


    She had no idea if Abel would do such a thing.


    The key was that all those medicinal herbs were in the trunk...


    If Abel found out about it, Luke and Luca would be at risk of exposure.


    "Don''t be afraid." Luke let out a helpless sigh when he saw how significant was the psychological


    impact Abel had left on Luca. "I have a n."


    Luca''s eyes flickered, and she asked eagerly. "What n?"


    "You''ll know soon enough. Rest assured, I''ll protect you and our child. Even if Abel sends someone


    here to investigateter, they won''t find anything," Luke said confidently. He was even more concerned


    that Abel''s men would not show up...


    If Abel''s men showed up, he would not mind getting rid of Abel''s subordinates in X City.


    Eliminating even one would significantly reduce their obstacles in the future.


    Luke was patient in his actions. Even if the enemy still had his child, he could not afford to be anxious.


    Anxiety led to mistakes, and he could not let his carefullyid ns be ruined by impatience.


    "You''re secretly arranging things again and not telling me." When Luca heard Luke say this, she knew


    he had arranged something. However, from the looks of it, he did not intend to tell her.


    Even if she asked, Luke might not even tell her.


    "Do you suspect Otto?" asked Luca. Abel could silently arrange for his subordinates to be around them.


    Without careful observation, it would be difficult to detect any issues.


    Otto was not someone who stayed with them constantly. If he was also Abel''s subordinate, then they


    would be at a disadvantage...


    "It''s hard to say, but we''ll know after tonight," replied Luke, brushing her long hair aside. "Go freshen


    up. It''s still early, so why not take advantage of the time and get a little extra rest?"


    "Okay." Luca sensed the implications in his words. Something might really happen tonight...


    After Luca freshened up, Luke also went into the bathroom to freshen up.


    Luca sat in front of the dressing table, listening to the sound of watering from the bathroom. She


    was in a daze. She had not even considered the possibility of something going wrong tonight until she


    woke up this morning.


    Whatever was going to happenter might be a minor sh between Luke and the Ind of Despair.


    She could feel her palms grow cold at the thought of this.


    If something happened, she would be at risk of exposure.


    Suddenly, Luca felt the urge to pray. She hoped that nothing would happen tonight...


    However, things did not go as she wished...


    After she dried her hair, Luke was done freshening up. It was just past nine at night, but both of them


    unconsciously prepared to lie down and rest.


    At that moment, there was a knock on the door.


    Luke sat at the edge of the bed, showing no intention of getting up to open the door. He asked, "What


    is it?"


    "Sir, it''s me. I wanted to ask if you and Ms. Craw would like some supper?" Otto''s voice came from


    outside the door.


    Luke and Luca exchanged a nce with each other. Then, Luke replied, "No need. We''re tired today,


    and we’re nning to rest now. You should rest early too."


    After two seconds, Otto, who was outside the door, responded, "Alright. Goodnight, Mr. Crawford."


    After that, Luca heard the sound of footsteps fading away as someone left.


    She turned to look at Luke and mouthed, "Something''s wrong."


    Luke nodded.


    Otto was a butler trained in a professional butler course.


    A professional butler like him would note upstairs to disturb the master if there were no orders


    from the master, especially at night.


    Not only did Ottoe upstairs, but he also knocked on their bedroom door. At the thought of it, it did


    feel odd.


    Something was definitely not right...


    Luca felt she had reached a conclusion. Otto might be one of Abel’s subordinates.


    Even if he was not one of them, his identity was highly suspicious.


    The thought that he was working for Abel made Luca break out in a cold sweat. All the conversations


    she and Luke had had in the bedroom, as well as Luke''s endearing nickname for her, Bea...


    What if Otto had installed some listening devices here...?


    "Luke, could we have already been..." Luca could not continue.


    Now that she was suspecting Otto to be Abel''s subordinate, she was worried about how Abel would


    treat their daughter after learning she had already confessed her identity.


    She could not help but tremble at the thought of this.


    "There are no listening devices here." Luke knew what she was worried about.


    Abel was a sensitive and suspicious person, but Luke was also a meticulous man.


    He had already confirmed that there were no listening devices here, which was why he was confident


    enough to call her ''Bea''.


    "Hmm?" Luca was surprised. No listening devices? Still, how could Luke be so sure?


    After all, she was basically always with Luke. She had not seen him use any devices for detection...


    Luke had not installed any signal jammers in this bedroom either because her phone signal was very


    good here, with full bars. At the same time, she could also send messages using data. It did not seem


    like there was any interference device.
