Chapter 1770: Tracking the Signal

On the other side.

At the seaside villa, the sun was exceptionally bright today, and there was no wind, which was rare. Luther took Alisha outside to bask in the sun. Jamie had specifically instructed him to be careful of a relapse of Alisha's pneumonia. She shouldn't be exposed to drafts or cold temperatures.

Therefore, on this windless day, Luther let Alisha enjoy the warmth of the sun. He brought her to the beach, and Alisha was extremely happy. She sat on the ground, playing with the sand, picking up seashells, and building sandcastles.

Ever since Alisha mentioned that she wanted to see the sea, Luther had been keeping it in mind. Today, he finally had the opportunity to bring Alisha out. Although Athena's people were following them, he didn't care anymore as long as Alisha was happy.

Alisha lifted her head from the sand with excitement. "Daddy, so this is the sea. The sea is so beautiful. I love the blue sea and the golden beach. I want to come here again."

Luther smiled as he patted Alisha's head. "Yes, why not? The sea is very close. I'll bring you here often."

Alisha nodded. "Mhm, Daddy, I don't want to get sick again."

Upon hearing these words, Luther felt a pang of discomfort in his heart. Alisha had suffered so much, from being born in a coma, having a weak body, and now having an explosive device implanted in her. She had endured so much pain.

"Daddy, what's wrong between you and Mommy? I've noticed that you two never talk. Mommy's face doesn't look good every day, and it scares me." Alisha suddenly tugged at Luther's clothes, her voice trembling.

Luther softly asked, "Alisha, what are you afraid of?"

Alisha's eyes were filled with anticipation. "I want Daddy and Mommy to love each other, and I want our family to be happy. I want to be with you every day."

Luther looked at the sincerity in Alisha's eyes. He suddenly had the urge to tell her right now that Athena, that wicked woman, was not her mother at all.

He cautiously asked, "Alisha, if you had another mommy, would you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Alisha suddenly stood up from the ground, her face turning red with excitement. "Daddy, are they telling the truth? Do you really have another woman outside? Do you have other children?!"

Luther was stunned. He didn't expect Alisha's reaction to be so intense. He quickly picked up Alisha and held her in his arms. "Where did you hear that? What else did you hear?"

Alisha stared at Luther defensively. "I overheard Mommy's subordinates talking privately. They said Daddy didn't want to stay here, that Daddy had another woman and other children. Mommy always told me to help her keep Daddy, so that our family could stay together forever. I think Mommy is right. I don't want our family to break apart!"

As she spoke, Alisha struggled out of Luther's arms and stood with her hands on her hips.

"Daddy, I hope you never associate with other women again! Otherwise, I won't talk to you anymore. I will hate you!"

Luther's eyes darkened. It seemed that it wouldn't be easy to make Alisha accept Joyce. Alisha had been implanted with more than just the detonator in her chest; she had also been implanted with those damn thoughts!

He was running out of time.
