    Chapter 3381 Do You Still Want To Leave?


    Abel did not have much of an impression of Lucius. However, he believed he would not lie to him.


    If Lucius had actually done something to betray him, he would not have been foolish enough to admit that Hera had tried to seduce him.


    Abel studied his face. Lucius was not handsome, and his physique was not any different from the other people in the organization.


    His gaze then shifted to Hera. "You didn''t do anything?"


    Hera could feel the chilling intensity in his eyes, and she could not help but shiver.


    "A man had to step forward to file aint because you were harassing him, Hera. Have I been too lenient with you?" Abel continued, his voice light, almost indifferent. Still, the underlying menace was unmistakable.


    Despair filled Hera as she shot a resentful look at Luke. How could he be so ruthless, pushing her toward the brink of destruction?


    "Hera, look at me," Abelmanded coldly, his hand suddenly gripping her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze.


    Hera knew she had no choice but to escape now. If she did not, she would never get another chance. At this moment, with her life and money hanging in the bnce, she chose her life.


    Despite her trembling body, she stepped back and spoke with determination in her voice. Abel, who do you think you are?"


    Abel''s gaze darkened further. His hands started twitching as though he wanted to crush her. No woman had ever dared speak to him like this.


    The only one who had ever dared was Luca, back when she was first captured. In the end, however, she gave in to him.


    "Hera..." Abel''s voice was full of warning.


    Hera sneered, "I''ve been following you because of your money, but now that I don''t want it, I''m done with you. You think just because you have money you''re some kind of emperor? Abel, when I needed your money, you were the boss of me. Now that I don''t, you''re nothing."


    Luke''s eyes flickered with amusement. Hera was truly foolish.


    Did she really think Abel was with her for her beauty?


    If she had not had her eyes altered to look like Kassy''s, Abel would not have spared her a second nce.


    Now, she wanted to leave and try to save her reputation, but it was toote.


    Luke said in a low voice, "It''s toote."


    Gerald, who stood beside him, was confused and asked in a low voice, "Toote for what?"


    Luke did not answer.


    Abel''s expression twisted into something more sinister as he watched Hera prepare to leave. He had finally found someone who met his standards, and he was not about to let her walk away like this.


    "Hera." Abel''s voice was calm. There was no anger but a depth to it that made Hera''s blood run cold.


    "Are you really going to leave?" he asked again.


    At that moment, Hera felt the suffocating presence of death closing in on her.


    Hera wanted to nod her head, but as the thought of what Abel would do to herter crossed her mind, she shuddered. She forced herself to speak, her voice trembling but firm, "You''re terrifying. I don''t want to stay by your side anymore."


    "You really think you can leave?" Abel''s eyes shed with mockery. "There''s only one way for someone to leave without my permission."


    "What?" A sense of dread washed over Hera.


    She immediately regretted asking. She should not have asked.


    The answer was clear in Abel''s eyes before the words even left his mouth.


    "Only death can separate someone from me," Abel''s smile was as sinister as a demon from hell. His overwhelming hostility seemed to suffocate Hera.


    "Do you still want to leave?"


    Feeling as though she were ensnared by a vengeful ghost, Hera''s vision blurred. In a daze, she fainted.


    Luke stood there, watching the scene unfold with a detached expression.


    After all, Hera was nothing more than an ordinary person in his eyes.


    Cerald, observing from the sidelines, clicked his tongue in disbelief. For a moment, he was not sure whether he should step in or stay back.


    Remembering his boss'' possessiveness, he hesitated. He had started to move toward Hera, but the thought of possibly being reprimanded by Abelter made him stop.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    It was not worth the risk of being used of touching her and making Abel jealous, especially when he could end up losing his limbs.


    Abe showed no sign of mercy when he saw Hera copse. His eyes were cold and unfeeling as he looked at her pale, unconscious face.


    She was nothing like Kassy, and no matter how miserable she looked, she would never earn his sympathy.


    Abel watched the scene unfold indifferently. His only interest was in her eyes.


    Abel lifted his head with a cold expression on his face. "Why are you two still standing there?


    Hurry up and carry her upstairs."


    Luke, however, did not budge. His voice was cold as he replied, "Boss, I''m not touching her.


    If Hera wakes up and finds out, she''ll use me of taking advantage of her."


    At that moment, Luke truly demonstrated his reluctance to intervene.


    "I won''t either," Gerald quickly added.


    Abel''s eyes narrowed in irritation. He was exhausted and did not want to deal with this


    nonsense. "Go get Ivana and have her carry her upstairs."


    Then, he tumed around and walked out of the living room.


    Cerald looked at Luke. "Are you going, or should I?"


    "I''ll go," Luke replied indifferently, turning to ascend the stairs.


    He knocked on the door of theboratory.


    "Come in" came Shanks" voice from inside.


    Luke pushed open the door. As soon as Luca saw him, she quickly went over the protocols


    with him, exining the procedures in ce.


    Luke stopped just inside the doorway, not entering.


    "Mr. Shanks, we need Luca''s help downstairs," said Luke.


    Luca heard Luke''s voice and lifted her head to look at what was happening outside. Her gaze


    met his, and she silently asked what was going on.


    "Go ahead," replied Shanks.


    Luca quickly removed herb coat andid down her materials, then walked out of theboratory. Once the door was closed behind her, she asked, "What''s going on?"


    "Hera fainted, and we need you to take a look and help carry her upstairs," exined Luke. Then, he added, "I''ll carry her. You just check on her and see what''s wrong."


    Even though he was reluctant to touch Hera, he did not want Luca to overexert herself. She might appear frail, but at nearly 900 pounds, carrying her upstairs would definitely tire Luca


    out.


    Luca was surprised and walked downstairs with him, asking, "Why did she suddenly faint?"


    Luke could not exin everything in detail, so he replied shortly, "I''ll tell youter. She tried to leave, but Abel scared her into fainting. She''s lying on the floor right now."


    Luca''s curiosity only grew. Hera needed Abel''s money. Why would she suddenly try to leave


    and faint because of a scare?


    When they reached the bottom of the stairs, Luca nced at Gerald and then at the unconscious Hera on the floor.


    "Maybe we should just put her on the couch?" suggested Gerald. Both he and Luke were unwilling to touch Hera, fearing she would use them of somethingter.


    However, leaving her lying on the floor was not a good option either.


    Luca shook her head. "No. There are too many peopleing and going here. Even though


    she''s with the boss, it''ll be hard to avoid unwanted attention."


    Even though Luca did not like Hera, she wanted to be considerate of the situation since she


    was a woman.


    "What should we do, then?" asked Gerald, "We can''t touch her, and you''ll probably have a


    hard time carrying her upstairs by yourself."


    "I''ll do it," replied Luke.


    "No need. I''ll handle it with Gerald," Luca directed, taking charge. She and Gerald each took


    one side of Hera''s body and began to lift her.


    She was being petty. It was obvious that Hera liked Luke, and if he helped carry Hera now, it might cause more troubleter.
