Chapter 2631
The waiter turned to Luca, “Madame, what do you think?"
“It's good," replied Luca.
“Okay. Thank you for your reviews. Here are some souffle glaces for you. I wish the two of you muchlove and happiness." The waiter picked up the plate of souffle glaces on the tray and placed it on thetable. Then, he turned around and left.
Luca was lost in her thoughts as she stared at the souffle glaces on the table. Would she and Luke beable to live a happy life together?
Should she tell Luke the truth after she finds the antidote? Would she be able to attack Abel with Luke'shelp?
However, if things turned out that way, what would happen to Eler and Nyla, who were on the Island ofDespair?
Luca felt crushed. She had done so many things that were detrimental to the interests of T Corporationand Watson Biopharmaceuticals. Would Luke forgive her if he found out about that?
“What's on your mind?" Luke picked up a souffle glace and placed it on her plate.
“Nothing," said Luca, coming back to her senses.
“Have some. It tastes better while it's warm." Luke noticed that Luca was preoccupied while staring atthe souffle glace. He knew Luca must be thinking about the future.
“Alright." Luca took a bite of the souffle glace and recalled what the waiter said to them. She secretlymuttered to herself that she hoped so too.
She hoped that she could still be together with Luke after what they would be going through and afterthey overcame the obstacles.
She also hoped that Nyla could come back to her father and grow up happily.
On the Island of Despair.
Eler was teaching Nyla to read. The alphabet cards that she used were the ones Amur brought backhere from the off-island.
“Ms. Eler, isn't my mother a citizen of A City? Why am I learning Russian?" asked Nyla in confusion,holding the Russian alphabet card in her hand.
Eler stroked the little girl's head, “It's because we're in Russia now. Besides, I only know how to speakEnglish, but I can't read."
Eler learned how to speak English from Luca, after knowing her for three years. Yet, she had no ideahow to read nor write English words.
She would not teach Nyla something she did not know so that she would not mislead her.
“Umm, but I'd like to learn English." Nyla toyed with the card. “Learning Russian isn't fun at all. I knowhow to speak Russian."
Eler heaved a sigh. Nyla was smart, and she could speak Russian eloquently. She also knew how tospeak English.
Even though the kid knew how to speak, she did not know how to write or recognize letters.
Luca was not on the island either. Hence, Eler could only teach Nyla Russian, but she could not teachher English as Eler did not understand the letters either...
“Nyla, let's wait for Mommy to come back and teach you English, okay? Let's learn Russian first. See,you don't even know how to spell these yet," persuaded Eler patiently.
Now that Luca and Amur were out there. She was the only one looking after Nyla. Thus, she had totake good care of herself.
Nyla rolled her eyes and suddenly rose to her feet. She wrapped her chubby arms around Eler's neck,“Ms. Eler, Uncle Shanks knows how to speak English. Why don't we go look for him?"
Eler let out a helpless sigh as she looked at Nyla's little round eyes. “You wanted to play games withUncle Shanks, right?"
Nyla smiled at her and clapped her hands. "Ms. Eler, you're pretty smart. It's boring to sit here and lookat the cards. There's so much interesting stuff at Uncle Shank's place. Why don't we head there?"
“No, Mr. Shanks is busy with his research lately. We shouldn't disturb him." Eler shook her head andstopped Nyla.
Even though Nyla did not spend much time together with Shanks, the little girl seemed to be fond ofhim.
She would always look for Shanks when she had the chance.
Although Eler could stop her, the little girl would be unhappy about it.
“Ms. Eler." Nyla heaved a sigh. “I'm bored."
“Then let's stop learning. Why don't we play some board games?" Eler took a board game out. It wasalso something that Amur got for the child when he was out there.
There were no toys on the island.
When Amur brought them back, they checked the toys and made sure that there were no signalingdevices, surveillance cameras, or any other devices, only then they allowed him to bring them into theisland.
“Nah, this isn't fun at all." Nyla was already tired of it.
Eler forced a smile. Sure enough, no matter how interesting a toy was, the kids would always get tiredof it after playing with it for a while.
It was more suitable for Nyla to grow up in the outside world.
Still, would Nyla be able to get out of here?
Eler let out a sigh.
“Ms. Eler, why don't we bring the board game along with us and look for Uncle Shanks? There'snothing fun on this island. I'm sure he has never played this before." Nyla blinked her eyes. All she hadin mind was Shanks.
Eler wanted to say yes, but they would probably run into someone else if they went out.
Those people were up to no good.
Furthermore, those people were always training and striving to reach higher. It would be a badinfluence on Nyla to see those people carrying knives, guns, or any other weapons with them.
Besides, Eler was afraid of running into Abel...
Abel reminded Eler of Luca whenever Nyla saw him.
"Ms. Eler..."
"Be good. They're training out there. If we go out, we might.." Eler stroked the child's head.
Nyla noticed the fear in Eler's eyes. She had no choice but to compromise.
She often wondered why Eler was afraid of those people.novelbin
They were just training.
Moreover, it seemed interesting to see those men carrying weapons in their hands.
Eler smiled when Nyla chose to acquiesce. She then suggested, "Why don't we make it moreinteresting?"
"How?" Nyla's big eyes were filled with confusion.
"Let's play Candy Land. The person who loses the game will have to get flicked in the forehead aspunishment. What do you think?" asked Eler, raising her eyebrows.
Nyla nodded immediately. "Ms. Eler, you're going to lose! You always lose when it comes to suchgames."
"We don't know who's the winner yet. Bring it on." Eler set up the board game and began to play withNyla.
A bet had finally pulled Nyla to join the game.
Eler was playing with her while she secretly wondered when Luca and Amur would return.
Eler was alone on the island. She was scared and worried, and she could not stand it for much longer.
Eler knew she was not strong enough. She could not even protect herself, not to mention protectingNyla.
She was afraid something would happen to them if this continued.
She needed to seize the chance to give Luca a call or a video call. It did noot matter if she would endup stuck on the Island of Despair for the rest of her life. After all, she has been here since she was little.She was already resigned to her fate.
However, things were different for Nyla. Eler was hoping that Luca could get Nyla out of here.
The environment on the Island of Despair was nothing but a bad influence on the little girl.
'Ms. Luca, please come back soon.' Eler secretly thought to herself.
