"What are you staring at?" After Abel hung up the phone, he looked at the translator whose face was pale white. He then realized that she could understand what he was saying.
He figured this woman must have been scared by what he had just said.
However, Abel did not intend to explain anything to her. He hired her to be his translator, and he was the boss. Did it matter if she heard the threats?
She did not have any evidence to prove anything about him.
"I’m sorry, Mr. Abel." The translator came back to her senses after thinking about how frightening he was. She apologized to Abel with a lowered head. Then, she asked, "Would you like to look around now?"
Abel looked disdainfully at the bustling venue.
Initially, there were not many people who came to the networking event. Now, it was crowded all because of Luke.
Moreover, the venue was mostly open-air. Even though there were large fans blowing air around, as the afternoon approached, the weather became increasingly hot and humid.
Abel, being a native Russian, could not tolerate such humidity.
However, he needed to help Shanks find medicinal herbs now. Abel glanced around the venue. He could not spot Shanks and had no idea where he had gone.
Shanks was a medical genius who was particularly passionate about researching naturopathy.
He believed it was something passed down from the millennia-old civilization of A City. It was far superior to Western medicine, with plenty of room for research.
Therefore, whenever he encountered herbal medicine, he would be excited to study it thoroughly.
"Where did he go..." Abel could not help but wonder. None of the others on the Island of Despair had a talent for medicine, and neither did he.
Still, he needed to help now. Without Shanks, he figured he could easily be deceived at any moment.
"Are you referring to Mr. Shanks?" asked the translator. Shanks understood English. Even though he could not speak fluently, regular communication posed no problem.
Therefore, the translator's most important task was to translate for Abel.
"Did you see him?" Abel glanced at her.
The translator replied, "When you were on the phone earlier, Mr. Shanks was still over there..."
She pointed in the direction of a stall where Shanks was no longer present. "He was talking to those medicine vendors. I don't know where he went now. Would you like to give him a call?"
"No need." Abel remembered Shanks mentioning something about acting separately earlier.
After all, saving Kassy was not Shanks' responsibility.
They had to split up and act separately.
"Okay." The translator felt a bit puzzled but did not continue speaking. Then, she heard Abel say, "Let's go. We'll check out the stalls now. I need to find some herbs, and you'll help me with the translation."
"Sure, Mr. Abel," agreed the translator.
They walked among the various stalls.
On the other hand, Luca had been browsing for a long time and had talked to some medicine vendors. However, none of them had the herbs Shanks needed.
After a while, Warren approached with a serious expression on his face. "Dr. Craw."
"What's the matter?" Luca was already irritated.
"Mr. Turner said he found one of the herbs Mr. Crawford wants. Do you have any specific instructions?" Warren relayed Luke's message to him.
Abel was present, and Luke did not want Luca to follow him around.
"Found it?" Luca knew that the herb Mr. Turner was looking for was the same herb Shanks needed.
