Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2489

Luke nodded as Percy’s hypothesis seemed possible.

Otherwise, there would not be ships going in and out there.

Winter had just passed, so it was still freezing over there. The weeds on the island had withered and leaves had fallen off the trees. That was how his people discovered them.

As for the new materials Percy mentioned, there may not be a lot in the market right now and the technology may not be particularly advanced, but they could tell from Luca’s medical skills that the level of technology on the Island of Despair was much higher than the technology available to them, so it might be possible…

Besides, Johann had mentioned before that the person who taught Luca medicine must be a medical guru, and that even he was no match for him in certain aspects.

“We’ve found the place, so what are you going to do now?” Percy crossed his hands in front of his chest enthusiastically.

If Luke asked him to sweep the Island of Despair, he would be able to do so, even if the stronghold was underground.

“Don’t make any moves for now. We still have to continue observing,” said Luke.

“Why?” Percy asked with his eyebrows raised. He did not understand what he was trying to do. Was he going to wait until the enemy made the first move?

“Luca won’t obey their instructions for no reason, so they must have something up their sleeve. I need to dig deeper, and…” Luke’s gaze grew deeper. He wanted to rip those who hurt Luca apart with his own bare hands, but he had to suppress it. “You know the fake Bianca?”

“Yeah.” Percy nodded.

“The fake Bianca died of poisoning because she didn’t take the antidote in time. Until now, Gale and Rain still can’t collect the poison sample from fake Bianca’s blood, let alone develop an antidote. I’m worried that Luca is also controlled by this drug,” said Luke.

If they acted rashly without an antidote, they would only put Luca in danger.

He had already lost her once. He could not bear the pain of losing her again,

Destroying the Island of Despair was a precise but crude procedure. He could not predict whether he would be able to find a sample of the antidote for Luca while attacking the island. If there was no antidote, Luca would only have a month left to live.

Luke secretly felt like the research Luca was doing now may be the antidote…

“When you put it that way, I guess acting rashly is not the way to go.” Percy nodded in understanding. It seemed like they had to continue mapping out a plan.

“Continue observing,” said Luke. As long as they did not alert the enemy, everything would be fine.

“Okay, that’s all I have to tell you. I’ll let you know if we find anything else. I’ll head back now. Nina is waiting for me,” Percy said. After returning to A City, he sent Nina home first before hurrying over here to tell Luke about this.

“Alright, thank you.” Luke walked out of the gazebo with him and uttered his heartfelt thanks.

Percy was stunned and looked back at him in surprise. “This is one of the few times you thanked me, and every time, you sound weirdly excited.

“I do?” Luke knew why.

Apart from Luca’s matter, every time Percy helped him, he would only keep it in mind and find a chance to repay him later.

He would only say thank you when it came to Luca as this favor was so huge that he did not know what else to do to show his gratitude.

That was because Luca was more important to him than his own life.

“Yes, you’re always more serious when the matter involves Luca.” Percy smiled and patted his shoulder before turning to leave.

Luke looked inside the mansion, and his gaze traveled upward to his study because coincidentally, the garden could be seen from that room.

Was Luca still there?

The thought of her delicate face made the fire inside Luke start to burn up.

Nina was standing not far across from her.

The atmosphere was solemn, and when Percy’s and Nina’s eyes met, he could see her uneasiness.

He cast her a look to reassure her. It was just Madam Mallory. He had never felt comfortable around her anyway.

“Why are you here?” Percy took off his coat and simply hung it up. He then changed his shoes before walking into the living room.

“This is your mansion, and I’m your mother. Why can’t I come?” Madam Mallory looked up and asked unenthusiastically.

Percy frowned. The security here was not as tightly regulated as in Luke’s neighborhood.

Even if he had instructed them before, the security guards recognized Madam Mallory, so they would just let her in.

Perhaps he should consider moving. Being neighbors with Luke was not such a bad idea.

Although all the properties in Luke’s neighborhood were occupied, what could he not buy with money?

He did not like the idea of staying in a second-hand house, but if he did not move now, Nina might face the same situation in the future. He did not want to make things difficult for Nina.

Percy walked over to hold Nina’s hand, and he said, “What do you want?”

“During the New Year, your grandfather tried all sorts of methods, yet he still couldn’t get you to go back. I even thought that someone had lured your soul away. If I don’t come to visit you, you might forget who your own mother is, right?” Madam Mallory said gloomily.

Percy smirked as her mockery did not trigger him at all. Instead, he said coldly, “Old Master Mallory had said before that I’m not welcome back home. If I go back, won’t I upset the Old Master?”

“You know not to upset the old master, but you still insist on being with this woman? Also, what did you call her just now? Do you think you can just call anyone that? She’ll never become the daughter-in-law of the Mallory family,” Madam Mallory said coldly. If the property management did not recognize her, she would not have been able to enter at all.
