Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1309

He realized that Abel would not hesitate to harm Luca if it meant that he got his revenge against Luke.

If Luke had ignored the stream, someone else would have found Luca. Amur dared not imagine what would happen to her if that were the case.

Luca's eyelids drooped. Even though she was fully unconscious throughout the entire ordeal, thinking about it now made her feel afraid.

A few years on the Island of Despair had hardened Luca's heart, but even so, she could not help but feel afraid of what Abel had done to her.

If taking revenge on Luke involved harming her, she would have to be more careful in the future.

"Amur, you should return to the island after you've completed your mission," she said.

She had a feeling that Amur would be harmed if he continued to stay by her side. She might be implicated as well.

"I'm not going back," Amur shook his head and said. Now that Abel had done something like that to Luca, he was not going to leave her alone in A City.

"No. I don't know what Abel is planning next, but I know that if you continue to stay here, you'll be involved as well. Go back and help me take care of Nyla," Luca said. Other than the siblings, she was also very worried about Nyla.

"My mission now is to protect you by your side," Amur told her the truth. "The drug that I stole from Solomon is developed by a criminal organization in New York, and Abel wants the recipe so that Shanks could make an even better drug to sell."

Luca did not say anything. She nodded, indicating for Amur to continue.

"Abel knew that I wanted to stay by your side, so he gave me the mission. Once I complete it, I can stay by your side without having to rush back to the island."

Luca was conflicted after hearing what he said.

Even so, she raised her doubts. "That drug should have been very difficult to obtain. How did Solomon get his hands on it?"

"Solomon has a regular buyer, and he's only the middleman between the buyer and the organization. I managed to find out about that, so I tried to obtain it from Solomon," Amur said.

He knew how headstrong Luca could be. If he did not tell her the truth, she would insist that he return to the island.

Luca sighed when she heard that. Even though Solomon was only a minor character in the illicit dealing, Amur probably could not afford to offend the criminal organization behind Solomon.

Abel was lucky to obtain what he wanted from Solomon, but would he be lucky enough to escape from the organization?

With him by his side, she had to be wary of Abel as well as the organization.

"You've offended Solomon and stole the drug from him. The criminal organization won't let you off that easily. Solomon and his gang have seen your face… No, you'll have to return to the island. It's safer for you there," Luca said.

Even though Amur was a proficient fighter, he could not possibly fight against an entire organization.

Abel was not stupid. He would rather sacrifice Amur than go against the organization.

Amur knew Luca's worries. He shook his head and said, "I've already dealt with it yesterday. You don't have to worry."

When Luca heard that, she turned on her laptop and searched for Solomon's name in the browser.

There was a news report saying that Solomon and two other men were found dead in an alley.

The local police knew Solomon's background, and they attributed his death to a gang conflict.
