Chapter 1308

Chapter 1308 Luke's Domineering Personality "When can you find that out?" Luke asked.

"It’ll take at least two days," Johann said as he closed the folder. He was quite interested in what theyfound.

A mysterious substance was found in all three blood samples, and it had knocked out the three peopleat the same time. Then, the three people woke up at the same time. As far as he knew, no knownsedative could achieve that.

"That’s too slow." Luke was not satisfied.

Johann shrugged. He knew that Luke wanted both speed and precision, but between the two, he couldonly choose the latter.

"There’s nothing we can do about it. That is a rare substance, and if someone had created it in the lab,I have to say that I’m really impressed."

Luke shot a glance at Johann, which caused him to shudder.

"Don’t look at me like that. We doctors have to be rigorous in our research. You’ll just have to wait.Right, I heard that Dr. Craw was there too. Is she alright?" Johann asked out of concern. Jason hadtold him briefly what happened the night before.

"She’s fine." Luke felt a twinge in his heart when he heard his friend being so concerned about Luca,but he did not think too much about it.

"I’m glad to hear that she’s fine," Johann said with a smile, then continued, "Right, should I take a bloodsample from her?"

’’Aren’t three samples enough?" Luke said nonchalantly while he flipped through some documents.

Johann rubbed his chin and said, "It’s enough, but I heard from Jason that Dr. Craw did not wake upeven after the other three people woke up. If someone had drugged Dr. Albus and the others, theymust have drugged Dr. Craw too, and the drug might be different from the other three people."

Luke thought what Johann said made sense, but it would be too late to take a blood sample from her.

He knew that Luca would not be so careless anymore. She must have already taken the antidote.

"Hey, say something," Johann said.

"You won’t find anything on her," Luke said.

"Why not?" Johann thought that Luke did not want Luca to go through the pain of having needlesinserted in her. He knew that the thought was a little exaggerated, but he believed that it might be thecase.

He could tell that Luke had some feelings for Luca, though Luke was not at liberty to express itbecause of the impostor Bianca.

"She took the antidote," Luke said.

"Antidote? What antidote?" Johann was confused.

Tommy was sitting on the couch reading a book, and he explained on behalf of his father, "Ms. Lucasaid that she was going to take the antidote after she woke up."

"Where did she get the antidote?" Johann thought for a while and asked, "Don’t tell me that sheinvented it herself?"

"Mm." Luke nodded.

Johann remembered Luca's herbal concoction and believed what Luke said. He gave up on the idea oftaking a blood sample from her. "I guess I can't do anything about that. Can you tell me Dr. Craw'sroom number?"

"What do you want?" Luke stopped flipping the document and looked at him.

"I want to pay her a visit. At the same time, I hope that I can study her antidote." Johann was curiousabout Luca's research. Luke said that she made her concoctions without using company resources, sothe pills and powders were considered her private property, and Luke did not know anything aboutthem.

Johann had always been curious about Luca's personality. She concocted so many different types ofmedicines not found in the market, yet she had no interest in selling them.

"Uncle Johann," Tommy opened his mouth before Luke could say anything, "Ms. Luca needs to rest.Don't disturb her."

Johann wanted to say, "I'm not going to disturb her." The man behind the desk continued to read thedocuments as though he did not hear what Johann said.

Johann thought for a while and realized that what Tommy said made sense. Luca needed the rest now,and it was not appropriate for him to look for her.

"Alright then. I'll let you know when I get the results."

Luke pressed a button on the internal phone and said, "See the guest off."

Soon, a secretary came into the office and said to Johann," This way, please."

Johann glanced at Luke, muttered under his breath about Luke's domineering personality, and left.

Meanwhile, Luca felt a lot better after taking a pill. When she opened her eyes again, an hour and ahalf had passed.

She looked at herself. She had not washed up since the night before, and she could even smell herselfnow.

She got off the bed and went to take a shower. When she came out of the bathroom, she was slightlysurprised to see the meal cart. Then, she remembered that Luke had ordered breakfast for her, sayingthat it was part of "employees' benefits"...

Luca could not smile at all. She pushed the cart next to the couch and sat down.

There was a sumptuous spread, but the food had already gone cold, and it was not appetizing at all.

Luca did not want to waste the food. She took a few bites and could not eat anymore, so she coveredthe plates again.

The doorbell rang.

Luca went to open the door. Amur was standing outside.

"How do you know that I'm here?" She asked.

Amur wagged the phone in his hand. "I found your signal."

There was a tracker in every phone issued by the Island of Despair. Two phones could sense eachother in close proximity.

Amur had already detected Luca's signal. He had been waiting for her to leave the room since early inthe morning. After waiting for a long time, he decided to ring the doorbell.

"I see. Come in," Luca said and opened the door wide.

Amur walked inside and noticed the meal cart. "Why are you only eating breakfast now?"

Luca took her phone and put it in the bathroom.

When Amur saw that, he also put his phone in the bathroom, turned on the shower, and closed thedoor.

Luca sat on the couch. She felt a lot better after taking the antidote, but her legs still felt weak,especially after walking for a bit.

"Abel did something to me." Luca paused for a while and said, "Or rather, he did something to him."

"What happened?" Amur's eyes widened all of a sudden. After meeting Abel the day before, he wentaway to tie up some loose ends.novelbin

Luca told Amur what happened the night before.

Amur's hands clenched into fists, and he flew into a rage." How dare he do that! How despicable!"

He originally thought that Luca was only a tool to defeat Luke, and Abel would not harm her.
