Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2612

After Rhett left her office, Luca turned her attention to the report.

Ten minutes later, Luca could not help but rejoice.

The sample she made and the data of the previous samples were more or less the same.

Moreover, she could see the efficacy of the sample neutralizing the poison in her blood. The indexes of the blood that had been neutralized were more positive.

Luca had a feeling that she only had to change the formula of the solution to be able to produce the antidote.

She would also need Amur’s blood for her research.

Her phone rang while she was lost in her thoughts, wondering how she could collect Amur’s blood sample without letting him know about her research.

She glanced at her phone. It was Luke.

Luca picked up her phone and answered the call. She greeted him respectfully as she was at her workplace, "Mr. Crawford."

“Did you watch the live broadcast of Mallory Corporation?” asked Luke. He regretted not exhausting her last night when he heard her address him in such an estranged formal manner.

Otherwise, why was this woman not keeping his words in mind?

“I did.” Luca had no idea why Luke would ask her such a question.

“Percy is treating us to dinner tonight. Tell Warren to send you to Traders Hotel after work,” said Luke. Percy had just called him and told him that he had reserved a private room at Traders Hotel.

He had told Luke that he would like to thank him for his help, but it was also meant to be a celebration dinner.

“But the kids…” Luca knew why Percy invited Luke to the dinner, but she had not offered Percy any help so it felt weird for her to be invited. That was why Luca had used her kids as an excuse.

“Aunt Neile and the maid will be there. You don’t have to worry about them. Plus, Nina personally invited you,” interrupted Luke, not giving her the chance to reject his invitation.

Percy would certainly be taking Nina along with him to the dinner, and Jim’s wife would be coming along too. There was no way Luke was going alone.

Their wives had no idea about Luca’s situation, but Percy and Jim knew about Luca’s true identity — that she was Bianca.

Hence, given Luca’s identity and their relationship, there was nothing wrong with going with Luke.

“Okay…” Luca knew she had no choice but to go to dinner with Luke.

“I’ll see you after work,” Luke hung up the call after Luca promised that she would come along. He had a lot of work to do.

Luca let out a sigh, listening to the busy tone from the other end of the line. Then, she put her phone aside.

Luca pondered for a moment and picked up her phone again. She sent a message to Amur: [You there?]

[Yes.] Amur replied instantly.

[Mallory Corporation's shareholders' meeting has ended. Things didn't work out for Pierre and he failed to become the CEO of Mallory Corporation. You can make your move anytime now.] wrote Luca. She was worried that Amur had not paid attention to this. Therefore, she made sure to inform him in the first instance,

[Okay. I have to come up with a plan.] replied Amur. He had been keeping an eye on Pierre and started to devise a plan two days ago.

However, he was not planning to tell Luca about it.

If Amur let Luca know what his plan was, she might get herself involved in this.

Amur did not want Luca to get involved.

Lately, he had a strong feeling that Luca would be able to free herself from Abel’s manipulation one day and live a normal life again when the time came.

Hence, it would be better for Luca to not have blood on her hands.

The people from the Island of Despair were either heartless or suffering from emotional stress. They had blood on their hands. Those who were able to bear the guilt of someone's death had become cold and heartless people. They would not feel distressed when they were carrying out their mission. Instead, they might even feel excited.

Luca’s heart skipped a beat. Abel’s face came into her mind in the first instance.

Still, would Abel come looking for her? Was he not afraid of exposing himself?

Luca suddenly remembered how Abel approached Luke by telling him that he was working in the same industry back then. He was not afraid of getting exposed. She felt her stomach churn with dread.

Her hands could not help but shiver.

Mo Stone, who was on the other end of the line, called her name, “Dr. Craw?”

Luca took a deep breath, looked down, and asked, "What's his name?"

“I think it’s A…” Mo Stone paused for a moment. “I forgot, but the front desk said that he’s your younger brother…”

“Okay. I got it. I’ll be right there in a moment.” Luca hung up the call. She reckoned that it was Amur when she heard Mo Stone saying that that person was her younger brother.

However, did she not tell Amur that they would be seeing each other tomorrow? Why did he come?

Luca picked up her phone and called Amur.

The call was answered and Luca asked, “Amur, are you downstairs?”

“Yes. I’m downstairs,” replied Amur. He already knew Luca had moved from T Corporation to Watson Biopharmaceuticals earlier.

“Okay. I’m coming,” said Luca.

Luca put on her coat and hurried downstairs. She saw Amur in the hall on the first floor indeed.

“Amur, didn’t I tell you we’ll meet tomorrow? Why did you come here today?” asked Luca, trotting towards him. It set her mind at ease when she saw it was Amur.

“I was worried that it’d delay your research. That’s why I came here.” simpered Amur. He rolled his sleeves up, signaling her to draw his blood.
