Gale clenched his teeth and said, “Boss, hang in there."
Then, he hit the accelerator and sped off.
In the villa.
Allison watched Gale drive off with Luke in the car through the security camera. She gritted her teeth in anger and stared angrily
at Sophian.
Sophian was frightened. Allison was looking as though she wanted to devour her. A chill went down her spine, and she could not
help but shudder for a moment. Then, she said in a soft voice, "Ms. Allison—"
"Shut up!" Allison interrupted her menacingly, "If it weren't for you dawdling there, how could Gale have brought him away?"
If Sophian had mustered her courage and brought Luke upstairs, Allison would have had a way to stop Gale.
They would not have ended up with Luke being taken away by someone else when they were carrying out their plan.
"Mr. Crawford was so frightening. I was scared..." Sophian quibbled for her cowardice with embarrassment.
It was normal for her to feel frightened when Luke stared at her like he would skin her alive.
After all, she had never come into contact with someone like him.
"He was almost yours, yet you were still afraid of him. Great. Our mission has failed. He'll never believe in me again. He won't
trust you either," Allison spoke without hesitation since the maid was not around.
Sophian almost cried after getting scolded by her. She replied, "Didn't the maid delay things too. Ms.
Allison, please stop blaming me."
"Does the maid have anything to do with your lack of courage? Besides, is she the one who wants to sleep with him or you?"
Allison was harsh.
Sophian had always been putting all her eggs in one basket. It ended up a complete failure now.
She had no idea what Luke would do to her when he sobered up.
Allison became restless at the thought of this. She warned Sophian, "I told you that you had to bear the responsibility if you failed
this time. Don't drag me into this."
"Ms. Allison, I." Sophian was afraid. She was worried Luke would take revenge.
Sophian would be staying here for a few more days. Luke would have enough time to take revenge on her.
“Stop that. You promised me after I said that to you. That's how things ended up now. Plus, the security camera recorded the
moment you sprinkled the powder into the wine glass. That'll be the evidence. I can still prove my innocence to him. You'll only
be safe if I'm fine," said Allison.
Sophian remembered that she had to depend on Allison to return to Seoul.
She had to make sure nothing happened to her. Hence, she nodded and agreed with Allison. "Okay. Ms. Allison. If Mr. Crawford
comes after us, just tell him that it was my idea."
"It'll be best if you say that. If something happens to me, you won't be able to get away with it either." Allison turned off the
computer screen of the security camera. Then, she turned around and left.
Sophian looked at Allison from behind. She felt like crying.
She was so close to getting Luke, but she was frightened by his piercing stare. She had gotten herself in trouble now, and she
lost.
Besides, Allison was shifting all the responsibility to her.
Sophian had no idea what she would have to face tomorrow...
Perhaps Allison would sacrifice her to save herself. She would be left with no choice at that time.
Gale was flying down the highway. The driving skills he had been practicing came in handy now.
He drove his way past the cars without concern about the situation of the road and the cars on the road. He cut lines and
overtook the other cars right away.
It was because the man in the car seemed to be on the verge of breaking down.
Gale noticed that Luke's face was red. If Luke did not soak himself in water or take the antidote now, his organs might not be
able to take it.
"Urgh." Luke groaned in pain.
He clenched his fists, trying to control himself from unfastening the seat belt and thinking of Gale as a woman.
Gale shivered. He had seen such drugs on the Island of Despair. They were given to the women. Those women would submit to
the men after taking the drugs. Then, they would be forced to become the slaves of the Island of Despair.
"Boss, hang in there. We're almost there. Besides, I'm a man," said Gale.
"Shut up!" Luke used up all his strength and scolded him. The burning desire in his body made him uncontrollably twist his body.
Luca, Luca.
Every cell in his body was thirsty for Luca's body.
"Boss, are you going there like this?" Gale asked. It was not too late yet. The kids might be frightened to see him in such a state.
"I'll pretend. as if nothing happened." replied Luke.
Gale bit his lip. Would Luke be able to act as if nothing had happened?
This kind of drug had strong effects. Gale could say that he was drunk if he did not do anything to Luca. He was afraid that Luke
would lose control the moment he touched Luca. Then, he would make some gestures.
The kids would be confused if they saw him doing that.
It would be a bad influence on the kids.
Luke had the same thing on his mind as Gale. He could endure it for a short while, but he would not be able to last long.
Besides, the night was still young. Even if Luca was willing to help him, the kids were there...
“Take the kids with you. Let them spend the night at your place." Luke's strength was coming back, but the desire in his body
was not gone yet.
That was the scariest thing about the drug.
He needed Luca.
Gale pondered for a moment. The three kids were good and obedient, and they would not cause any trouble. Hence, he agreed
to it, "Okay, Boss. We'll be arriving in five minutes. Hang in there."
The car was moving fast on the road. They arrived at the villa's entrance four minutes later.
Gale got out of the car first. He entered the passcode and drove the car into the compound.
He had already informed Luca while they were on the way back so that she would be prepared for this.
The moment the car came to a halt, Luca hurried over with a gloomy face. She pulled the car door open and saw Luke in such a
state. Her face turned darker as she asked, "He's been drugged?"
"Yes, Dr. Craw. Please find a way to save him," Gale replied anxiously. He bent down and unfastened Luke's seat belt.
Then, Gale and Luca helped Luke up.
"Boss, can you walk yourself?" Gale asked. It was difficult for him and Luca to help him walk.
Gale was planning to carry Luke on his shoulder and take him to the bedroom right away if he could not walk.
"Luca.." Luke did not answer his question. He opened his eyes and stared at Luca with his face red.
"Mr. Crawford, I'm here. It's cold out here. Let's go into the house first." Luca held onto his waist to help him up.
Gale did not help him to put on the coat when he sent him back. Luke was only wearing two layers of clothes on him. He would
catch a cold if he stood outside in the cold.
Luca turned to look at Gale.
Gale took the hint and said helplessly, "Boss has been calling your name since we got into the car just now."
