Leia's voice caught the leader's attention once more.
He looked at Queenie and noticed the phone on the coffee table. The man walked over quickly, smashed the phone on the
ground, and stepped on it with his foot before he slapped Queenie. "B*tch, you want to call the police?"
"Ah!" Queenie did not expect that they would notice. She shouted from the shock.
Jack quickly got between the man and Queenie, so the slap landed on his head. The man snorted coldly and pushed him away.
Jack fell to the ground in pain.
"Ah, dear! Dear, are you alright?" Queenie also fell to the ground in shock and wanted to climb over to check on Jack, but she
lost all strength.
Leia hid behind the sofa and smiled slightly when she saw how miserable the couple was. She looked toward Luca but could not
see how Luca was doing because she was squatting.
There were bursts of fighting. Although they were all men's voices, Leia believed that Luca could never beat 10 people on her
own no matter how strong she was!
"Mind yourself!" The man's dagger pointed toward Queenie, then at Jack.
As soon as his words fell, Rain rushed in with a group of people.
The man realized that those who were assigned to protect Luca were there. He was sharp-witted and dragged Queenie up from
the ground. He put the dagger on her neck. "Stop where you are!"
Rain and the others eliminated the remaining men who surrounded Luca.
The crisis around Luca was resolved, and it was only then that she realized that Queenie was being held against her will with a
dagger on her neck.
She was apprehensive when she saw Queenie's pale face and Jack, who was lying on the ground. His condition was unknown.
The man pushed the knife closer to Queenie's neck.
An indentation appeared on Queenie's neck.
Luca took a deep breath. She was worried that this situation would affect the couple's blood pressure, so she dropped the rod.
Her hands were trembling slightly. "We can discuss it. Let them go..."
The man glanced at the bunch who rushed in and beat his people up so badly that they were all lying on the ground.
'This is the only way to get Luca now.'
The man looked at Queenie, then at Luca. Luca's panicked look made it seem as though she was the couple's biological
daughter.
'It's funny. The actual daughter hired us to deal with her parents, but a person who's not blood-related to them is the one who's
so nervous about them.'
The man opened his mouth and said, "Our boss wants you. If you want to save them, you can come and replace them."
"Okay." Luca agreed without a second thought.
"No, Ms. Craw, you can't make yourself hostage!" Rain immediately took Luca's hand and shook her head.
If the knife were on Luca's neck, none of them would have a satisfactory explanation for Luke.
Luca pulled out her hand and said, "I'll be your hostage."
"Ms. Craw!" Rain could only watch her as Luca walked over. She wanted to stop her but could not.
Luca was Queenie's biological daughter, and Rain knew that she would not let anything happen to Queenie.
"Remember to call the ambulance later." Luca looked at Leia from the corners of her eyes and noticed that there was a wry smile
on the corner of her mouth.
She thought nobody noticed her reaction, but Luca did.
It was unlikely for her smile to appear in such a situation unless everything the gangster was doing now was as she wished.
As such, Luca did not expect Leia to call Jack and Queenie an ambulance after she was kidnapped.
"Ms. Craw..." Rain could only helplessly watch her walk over.
The man moved quickly and pushed Queenie away.
"Mmph..." Queenie groaned and fell to the ground.
Rain's subordinates immediately stepped forward to help her.
The dagger was quickly placed on Luca's neck. "Don't move. The dagger has no eyes."
Luca lowered her gaze calmly and looked at the sharpened dagger. She did not struggle but instead asked leisurely, "Have you
heard of this saying?"
"What saying?" The man was startled that Luca was acting so calm even when she was under his control.
It was as though she was trying to lure him into a trap.
"Justice has long arms," Luca said in a casual tone.
The man clenched the dagger in his hand and said, "You're going to die anyway. Is there a point in saying such a thing?"
"Are you sure that the person who hired you to kidnap me wants me to die?" Luca raised her gaze, looked at Rain calmly, and
hinted at her with her eyes.
"Oh, that's not my business. My task is complete once I kidnap and deliver you." The man kicked another subordinate who was
on the ground not far from him and said, "What are you still doing lying on the ground? The task is completed. Hurry up."
He believed that he could retreat safely with Luca's neck in his hand.
"You're still thinking about retreating? Have you heard another saying?" Luca asked.
The man was startled.
"You can cop a plea if you choose to be honest. Tell me, how did you come in?" Luca asked. Although she was asking this, she
knew in her heart that Leia had something to do with what happened.
"Of course, I came in through the door swaggeringly." The man thought she was stalling for time. After all his subordinates stood
up, he held onto her more tightly and walked out. "Get out of the way or this woman's neck will see blood."
Rain had no choice but to help Queenie up and step to the side.
Queenie looked at Luca weakly as tears welled up in her eyes. "Luca..."
The man was satisfied seeing that they were all afraid of the dagger in his hand. He continued to bring Luca out.
When he was about to reach the entrance, Luca's hand that had been down suddenly lifted up. Her right hand held the sharp
blade while her left hand went straight to the man's lower abdomen.
Almost instantly, she grasped the knife with her right hand while her left hand probed back and exerted force. The man yelled out
in pain, "Ahhhhh..."
Luca bent down deftly, and when the man was in pain, she lifted her leg and kicked him to the ground. He did not clench the
knife in his hand tightly because of the pain, and she was already holding it in her hand.
Seeing this, Rain's subordinates immediately knocked the other men to the ground again.
The leader who held Luca hostage was also pressed to the ground by two tall and strong men.
"Ms. Craw, your hand..." Rain looked at the dark red blood that was slowly flowing down Luca's palm and dripping onto the
ground.
Luca felt the pain in her hand, but her sharp gaze turned to Leia, who was hiding beside the sofa.
Leia shuddered when she met her gaze.
‘How terrifying...'
It seemed as though Luca saw through her at a glance. Leia felt like she was being judged.
"How are Mr. and Mrs. Norman?" Luca asked.
Rain glanced at Queenie, whom she was holding, and Jack, who was carefully being helped by her subordinates to the sofa.
She said, "They have to go to the hospital immediately."
Queenie had fainted, while Jack was frowning and seemed a little confused.
She was unsure if he hurt his head.
"Call an ambulance," Luca said as she took one step at a time toward Leia.
