Chapter 2171

Luca sat there doing nothing after she finished ordering the food. It was inconvenient for her to talk withAmur as Rainie was there.

Amur knew Luca had wanted to meet him alone in the beginning, so she must have something to tellhim. However, Rainie was here together with them. She could not tell Amur what she wanted to say.

After all, the child was not that young anymore. She understood a lot of things.

Rainie glanced at Luca, then she turned to look at Amur. She smiled and said, “Ms. Luca, I saw a swingthere. Can I go over there to play?"

"Ah. Sure." Luca turned to look at the swing. It was a play area designed by the restaurant for the kidsso that the parents could relax when they brought their children here. "Be careful. Don't go anywhereelse."

"Okay. I know." Rainie stood up and strolled toward the play area.

Luca was happy that there was a kids' play area in the restaurant. Otherwise, it would be inconvenientto talk to Amur.

"Is she one of your children you've been missing?" Amur asked Luca in Russian. No one in therestaurant should be able to understand the language.

Luca shot a glance in the direction where Rainie was. She was sitting on the swing and playing on it.

Rainie waved at Luca when she noticed she was looking at her.

Luca smiled and waved back at her. Then, she replied to Amur, "Yes. She has a twin brother."

"Who does the twin brother look like?" Amur suddenly asked.

Luca answered, "He resembles his father. Why are you asking this?"

"I was thinking that if the boy resembled you, he'd be good-looking," said Amur. "Rainie looks like youback then."

Although it had been nearly three years since Luca changed her looks, Amur could still remember whatshe looked like before.

"It's better for a boy to look like his father," said Luca. She did not think it was bad for her son toresemble Luke.

Amur shrugged his shoulders and added, "I think Rainie looks cute. And it's good."

"Does Nyla look like her?" Luca smiled while watching her daughter. She would always look at Nylaand think about Rainie when she was on the Island of Despair. Now that she had left the Island ofDespair to carry out her mission, looking at Rainie reminded her of Nyla.

“Indeed. They both resemble you," replied Amur.

Luca changed the subject of the conversation and turned to look at Amur. "Amur, was the mission youcarried out a dangerous one?"

"It's over." Amur could not bear to lie to her, so he avoided answering her question.

"It doesn't matter if you refuse to tell me. I know it all. Otherwise, you wouldn't have left your phone inthe apartment. You were afraid that I'd locate your whereabouts and find you, right?" Luca had it allfigured out. She knew the truth even if Amur did not tell her.

Amur nodded. He came back safely after completing the mission, so there was nothing to hide. "But I'malright."

"You're lying," Luca shook her head and said. "Your lips are white. You must be injured. And you'reseriously injured. But you can get out of the bed and walk normally after a few days."

Amur wondered if Luca could read his mind. How did she know he was injured by looking at his face?

"I'm a European. I'm born with fair skin." Amur refused to admit it.

"It's okay if you don't want to admit it. I can see it. I've always told you to protect yourself, but yourefuse to listen to me. Although I understand it's unavoidable, you're not alone. Someone is on theisland waiting for you to go back," said Luca. She took a bottle of medicine out of her bag and handed itto him.

She had this feeling that Amur was injured. That was why she grabbed the medicine and brought italong with her when she went out this morning. The medicine was for curing external wounds, and itworked much better than the medicine used in the hospitals.

"You know how to use this." Luca placed the bottle in front of him when Amur did not take it from her.novelbin

Amur smiled bitterly. He would be admitting that he was injured if he took the bottle of medicine.

Even though Luca was not in love with him, she still cared about him.

She might fly into a rage if she found out that Amur was injured and almost lost his life while carryingout the mission.

Amur felt grateful that Luca cared about him.

"Take the medicine even if I got it wrong. It helps to cure wounds that aren't serious as well," Lucapersuaded him.

"Thank you." Amur took the bottle of medicine. Luca's medicine was good. His wound would heal fasterif he applied her medicine.

"What are friends for?" Luca shook her head helplessly. Then, she asked, "You're not allowed to tell mewhat mission you were carrying out, right?"

Amur nodded and said, "Yes." He recalled what happened when he was carrying out the mission andadded, "But I ran into two people when I was carrying out the mission."

"Who?" Luca asked with curiosity. It must be people she knew if Amur mentioned it to her.

"They were looking for herbs, but they got lost in the woods. I found the stronghold of the organizationthere. The name they told me was your code name," said Amur.

Luca knew what happened when Amur mentioned the herbs.

She said, "Dr. Shanks is looking for the herbs."

“I thought you were in trouble. I wondered why the two of them were looking for herbs..." Amur let out asigh of relief. It turned out that Shanks needed the herbs, not Luca.

He was worried that something was wrong with Luca's health and that was why she asked the twopeople to look for herbs.

Amur felt relieved after finding out the truth.

Furthermore, Amur noticed that Luca was glancing at Rainie out of the corners of her eyes when shewas talking to him. She was being careful, afraid that Rainie would be lost.

Amur suggested, "Luca, ask Rainie to come back here if there's nothing more to talk about."

Luca only wanted to confirm that Amur was alright today. He was unharmed. She had seen it forherself. Although Amur might be injured, there would not be a problem if he was still able to make hisway down the stairs. Therefore, Luca waved at Rainie, signaling her to come back here.

Rainie walked back to their table when she saw Luca waving at her. She said, "Ms. Luca."

"Come one and sit down. They'll be serving the dishes soon," said Luca.

"Okay, Ms. Luca." Rainie behaved well and sat down on her chair. She was not as cold as Lanie was oras naughty as Tommy. Rainie was a good, obedient child. She sat there like a little gentle princess.

Amur looked at the well-behaved little girl. She seemed to have Luca's gentleness.

If it were not for the Island of Despair, Luca would be just like this little girl. She was humble and gentle.It was the Island of Despair that changed her.

However, Amur knew that no matter how much Luca had changed, she still had a kind heart, and shewas still the Bianca who saved him back then.

Rainie noticed Amur's gaze was on Luca. She smiled and looked at him.

Amur's face reddened a little, and the expression on his face stiffened. "I didn't know you'd be bringingRainie here. I didn't get anything for her."
