After having dinner at the restaurant, Luke and Luca took the kids to watch the marine show.
Once the performance ended, the family returned to their villa.
Before they even made it inside, Luke's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and said to Luca and the kids, "Go inside first."
"Okay." Luca noticed that something was wrong with Luke’s expression. She held Tommy and Rainie’s hands and said, "Let's go. It's late. We'll go upstairs to freshen up and go to bed."
"Alright, Ms. Luca." All three kids enjoyed their day today. They were quite content. Hence, they were obedient.
Once Luca and the kids were a distance away, Luke finally answered the call. "Speak."
"Boss, the people from the Island of Despair have found out about the hospital where Pierre Mallory is now. They’ve leaked the location to the media," said Gale.
Gale had just found out their move, but it was already too late. There were already a few reporters waiting at the private hospital now. It was likely that the police would be alerted before long.
"Are you sure it was the Island of Despair who leaked it?" Luke frowned.
"Yes, we traced the IP address of the tip-off. It originated from one of their bases," explained Gale.
One of the newspaper companies that received the tip-off was a subsidiary of the T Corporation, where Gale and Rain worked. Therefore, when the chief editor received the tip-off, they informed Gale about it.
Gale tracked the IP address and found that it was sent from an outpost of the Island of Despair in A City.
He did not know why the Island of Despair was careless this time, allowing their IP address to be easily traced. However, there was one thing certain—the Island of Despair did not just send the tip-off to their newspaper company.
Journalists from different newspaper publishers often shared their information. The chief editor received replies from at least three major local newspapers that had received the same tip-off.
"It won't be long before the police show up. There's not much we can do," replied Luke. The reporters had surrounded the private hospital. It would be impossible for the Mallory family to move Pierre even if they wanted to.
It was difficult for the hospital to cover it up too.
"I'll observe how the situation unfolds and then report back to you," said Gale. Before calling, he already knew that there was nothing they could do in this situation.
The instincts of media professionals were extremely sharp. The moment they received a tip-off, they would spring into action, and they were often faster than the police.
Gale also understood the layout of the private hospital. There was no way to secretly move Pierre out of the hospital.
"Okay." Luke lowered his gaze. After ending the call, he headed inside.
There was nothing he could do for Pierre at the moment.
What the Island of Despair did was a result of their displeasure with Pierre, as he had caused trouble and losses for them.
Whether it was the former leader of the Island of Despair or the current one, they were both vengeful people.
Rescuing Pierre had alerted the police. They did not gain any benefits from it and had even lost a significant amount of weaponry. This act of revenge stemmed from their frustration and was aimed at causing problems for the Mallory family.
Luca had taken the kids upstairs, leaving him alone in the living room, lost in thought.
It was possible that the Island of Despair had already figured out that it was Luke’s men who rescued Pierre. If they were going after the Mallory family, they might turn around to target the Crawford family too.
Luke sent a message to Percy: [The Island of Despair is going after the Mallory family.]
After a little while, Percy replied: [I already know. They're digging their own grave.]
Luke remained expressionless. He was not sure what the Island of Despair was up to, but by targeting the Mallory family, they had once again fueled the Mallory family's hatred toward them. This actually worked in his favor.
Percy's relationship with the Mallory family was not so great now because of Nina’s matter. That was why he could not easily mobilize a portion of his influence.
However, they had a common enemy with the Mallory family now, which would make their cooperation even closer.
