Chapter 1206 Yearned For Something More
If she could figure out the formula, she, Amur, and Eler stood a better chance of surviving...
Luca put the tube away. When she walked out of the alley, she saw Bianca driving away.
She glowered at her. Only when Bianca's car was far away did Luca pick up the phone and call for an Uber.
They were close to the suburbs, so it was not as easy to get a car.
After the driver accepted the order, Luca put her phone back in her pocket.
She heard a squeak from behind and turned her head. The man in charge of dispensing the antidote came out.
"You haven't left?" The man had a wide smile on his face as he checked Luca out. He thought that the woman in front of him was
hot and betterlooking than Bianca.
"I’m waiting for my ride." Luca was so disgusted with his gaze that she turned around to stop looking at him.
The man approached her and said, "It's hard to get a ride here. I'll drive you?" "No." Luca felt him approaching and impatiently
took two steps away from him. "Don't come near me." "Why?" The man noticed her refusal and was a little annoyed.
'How dare she turn down my advancement?! I’m responsible for distributing the antidote that makes sure she lives! I’m not
someone she can afford to offend! I can mess with the antidote at any time. She won't die, but she'll wish she were dead if she
goes a month without the real antidote!'
He was surprised that Luca dared to say no to him.
"You disgust me," Luca said.
"Aren't you afraid?" The man narrowed his eyes. He could have had a good time with Bianca, but Luca's appearance made him
miss the opportunity. Hence, he planned to have the woman in front of him make up for it.
"What would I be afraid of? Afraid you'd do something to the antidote?" Luca chuckled. "You may be able to do that to others, but
with me, you dare not and cannot." "Are you so confident?" The man looked at her with a displeased expression.
Luca said, "Feel free to ask the boss if I'm someone you can mess with.
"The woman from just now has an improper relationship with you, am I right?" she continued talking without giving the man a
chance to react.
The man’s heart sank as he replied, "Nonsense." "If I hadn't shown up, you would’ve rolled in the hay the moment she stepped
in." Luca was observant and had already noticed some clues.
She heard that the fake Bianca was from the Island of Despair.
Not every woman on the Island of Despair was like her and Eler. Most of them had to receive training and become a man's
plaything.
Therefore, the fake Bianca was different from ordinary people in some respects.
Luca could see the seductive look in Bianca's eyes earlier and naturally guessed that something was going on between them.
She guessed that Bianca left so quickly this time because she was upset by her appearance.
At the same time, Bianca still had unhealed wounds on her back.
If Bianca wanted the wounds to heal quicker, she would not dare to mess around.
The man was slightly surprised when she revealed their secret but he retorted, "Nonsense." "You know it in your heart whether
I'm telling the truth. By the way, do you know that she’s injured?" The corner of Luca’s mouth raised slightly as a look of
gloominess flashed in her eyes.
If she were not forced to restrain herself and wait for the perfect timing, she would have taught the man a lesson a long time ago.
"So what?" The man maintained his calm appearance.
"If you dare to do anything to me, you’ll end up just like her." Luca gave him a final warning before turning and leaving.
She walked to the door of the next house and continued to stand there to wait for her ride.
The man was sensible and did not continue to pester her.
After a while, the ride that she got arrived. Luca opened the door and looked at the man who was standing there unrelentingly.
The corners of her mouth were raised, and her gaze was full of mocking.
She did not go home immediately but chose to go to another villa in A City.
Luca knew about Amur’s mission. The target was a well-known local wealthy businessman and he stayed at the address that
Luca was heading to.
After she arrived at the destination, she checked out the security measures and cameras of the villa community. It would be
difficult for an ordinary person without an entry pass to enter.
The security measures were considered top-notch.
However, she was not an ordinary person. Luca intended to walk around the outside of the community to see if there was an
entry point.
Luca walked around and found the best entry point. Seeing that there was no one around, she sneaked in without triggering any
alarm.
She followed the clues from her previous investigation to find the target's villa. She pretended to be someone on a walk and
explored the villa’s surroundings.
Luca walked a full round and memorized all the locations of the surveillance cameras before leaving.
She returned to the apartment and found that Amur was not there.
Luca took the tube out of her pocket and went straight into Amur's bedroom.
Although the place had been tidied up, the research equipment was still inside. She extracted the liquid and started
experimenting.
Two hours later, Amur came back with a bag in his hand.
Luca heard the sound of the door opening. She put the sample away and walked out of the bedroom.
"You're back?" Amur wondered when he saw her walk out of his bedroom.
"Yeah, I was in your room doing some experiments," Luca explained as she walked into the kitchen and poured herself a cup of
coffee.
"What experiment?" Amur wondered.
'Is her workload so heavy that she has to bring the experiments home?' "I'll tell you after the experiment is successful." Luca took
a sip of coffee. She did not get much rest last night, so she needed coffee to wake herself up.
There was a reason why she did not mention her research. She did not want Amur to have too many expectations.
If she succeeded, it would be a surprise. However, if her research failed and Amur and Eler knew about it in advance, they would
be greatly disappointed.
During their years on the Island of Despair, Amur and Eler had experienced a lot of disappointment. Luca did not want to add on
to it.
Amur nodded and did not continue to pursue the matter seeing that Luca was unwilling to share.
She had her reasons, and he chose to believe her.
Luca finished the coffee and yawned, looking tired.
"Why don't you take a break? You'll still have time before the event tonight," Amur suggested.
Luca glanced at the time. She had to face Abel and must be vigilant to not let the man succeed in his evil ways.
"Okay, I'll take a rest. By the way, I bought you a loaf of bread. It's in the refrigerator. If you want to eat it, you can take it out and
eat it," she said.
"Okay." Amur watched her return to the bedroom. He put down the bag in his hand and opened the refrigerator.
There was bread and milk in the upper section. His heart was warm as he took them out.
Luca took great care of him but he knew that it was because she saw him as a brother.
However, Amur's heart yearned for something more.
