Chapter 3305 Not Taking Good Care Of Her And Their Daughter
Luke's eyes darkened a little. At this point, it was clear they needed Luca. She was the only one who knew the layout of the Island of Despair.
Gale asked, "Should we call in Dr. Craw now?"
"I'll go," replied Luke. He rose to his feet and headed downstairs.
Luca was chatting with Vivian when she saw Luke come down. "Coffee?"
"No." Luke glanced at Vivian. Then, after a moment, he said, "Miss Vivian, can I borrow Luca for a bit?"
Vivian chuckled and replied, "She's all yours anyway."
Luca stood up and said to Vivian, "Vivian, why don't you check out the magazines? I'll be back as soon as I'm done."
"Luca, don't worry about me. I know my way around here." Vivian waved her phone and added, "If I need anything, I'll ask Aunt Neile. Plus, I have the TV and my phone... There's no way I'm getting bored."
"Oh, and there are two game consoles in the drawer if you feel like playing," Luca assured her before following Luke upstairs into the bedroom.
"Dr. Craw, we could really use your help," said Gale.
Luca nodded slightly and noticed the maps on the table. As she got closer, she realized they were all related to the Island of Despair.
She was startled for a moment and glanced at Luke.
He had been investigating the island all along without her even knowing. He had made significant progress without telling her.
Realizing his intentions, Luca smiled and said, "You've already found out so much. What do you need my help with?"
"We need to map out the underground area of the Island of Despair. Once we have that, we won't be stumbling around in the dark. At least, we'll have a solid idea of what we're dealing with when we make a move," explained Gale.
Luca nodded. "The underground of the Island of Despair is almost as big as the surface, though it might be slightly larger because of the island's natural structure. Over the past two years, I've taken every chance I could to explore it.
"I wouldn't say I know everything, but I've got a pretty good idea of most of the layout." Gordan asked with confusion, "Why two years?"
"I was pregnant during the first year. For the first six months, the baby was unstable, so
they were afraid I'd try to take my life. They kept me locked in a room. After six months, when my belly started to show, even though I didn't want to die anymore, I couldn't move around much.
"It was only when I started training later that I managed to walk around and memorize what I could," explained Luca.
Luke's pupils tightened, and he quietly held Luca's hand.
Luca knew why he reacted that way and added, "Honestly, calling it imprisonment isn't quite accurate. Eler was taking care of me, so other than being confined, I wasn't mistreated."This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
After revealing her true identity, she explained to Luke about Eler and Amur.
Luke gave a slight nod, but guilt weighed on him. He had not taken good care of her and their daughter.
Gale said, "Boss, don't worry. We'll make sure he pays for what he's done!"
If Abel had not provoked Luke and rebuilt the Island of Despair, Luke would not have bothered to launch an attack as long as he did not threaten A City or the Crawford family.
Luca knew they were all doing this for Luke and her, and she felt incredibly grateful.
Gordan picked up a pen and some paper. "Dr. Craw, you tell me what to draw, and I'll sketch it."
"I'll do it," replied Luca.
Gordan handed over the pen and paper with a laugh, "Oh yeah, I almost forgot, you're the pro here."
She used to be an architecture major, so drawing maps came way more naturally to her than it did to him, a complete amateur.
Luca sat down in Luke's chair with a paper and pen in hand. She started sketching from memory.
As she drew, she referenced the surface map of the Island of Despair for scale.
Two hours later, she had mapped out everything she could remember.
The layout she drew lined up almost perfectly with Luke's surface map.
"That's impressive!" Gordan, despite not knowing much about architectural design, could easily tell how precise Luca's map was when he compared the two.
"With Dr. Craw's map, I think we've got everything we need to take down the Island of Despair," said Gale, clearly in awe of her.
Previously, he used to think Luca was a bit too soft and was not quite the right match for someone like Luke.
However, he could understand that she was the woman Luke loved, and it did not really matter if she was a bit weaker. As long as she had his heart, that was all that counted. Luke would always have her back, no matter what.
Now, after three years of surviving on the Island of Despair, Luca had become strong enough to stand tall next to Luke in every way.
She had risen from the ashes. She was stronger and more resilient, earning everyone's
respect.
Luca's eyes crinkled with a soft smile as she listened to their conversation.
Even though they were still in the planning stage, she could already imagine the moment they wiped out the Island of Despair for good.
When that day came, Nyla would finally be able to come home, and they would be reunited.
She and Luke would finally be able to stand together, openly and proudly, and announce their true relationship to the world.
The misunderstandings would clear, and they could be a happy family again.
With warmth and hope in her eyes, she turned to look at Luke.
He gently took her hand. "I know you miss our daughter, but we need to wait just a little longer. We've learned that Abel is planning to rescue Kassy. He'll have to bring a lot of the Island of Despair's people to A City to make it happen, and that's when the island will be at
its weakest."
Since their daughter was still on the Island of Despair, Luke had to wait for the perfect moment, when the island was at its emptiest, to make a move and keep their little girl safe.
"Okay." Luca nodded. She believed Luke could come up with a good plan, but she still had concerns about Kassy.
"What about Kassy?" asked Luca with a hint of concern in her voice.
"We've already informed the authorities. They're keeping a close eye on things. Abel's
rescue plan won't go as smoothly as he thinks," Luke reassured her.
Kassy deserved what was coming to her, but Luca did not.
However, Abel had taken revenge by holding Luke's wife and daughter hostage on the Island
of Despair.
Luke knew that if he had been any weaker, both Luca and their daughter would have been
dead by now.
Even though Kassy was in a bad spot, Luke had no intention of letting her go.
Luke slightly narrowed his eyes. Abel claimed to love Kassy. In that case, he should let Abel
rot in a cell with Kassy. Of course, that would be the best-case scenario.
As for the worst-case scenario, Abel would die in a hail of bullets.
It all depended on what he decided to do.
"I've finished the map. You guys carry on. I need to head back downstairs to keep Vivian
company. It's not right to leave her alone for too long," said Luca.
Whenever Luke was busy, she took care of things for him.
