Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 1226

Chapter 1226 They Were Not That Different

Even though Amur could not see Luca's smile behind the mask, he could tell that Luca was smiling because her eyes were curved like crescent moons.

"Let's go," Luca said.

Amur was taken aback. He remembered that Luca had said the sthing when she stood up against Abel to protect him.

Whenever he was bullied by other mercenaries on the Island of Despair, Luca would fight them, and she would always say "Let's go" whenever she was done.

Amur reached out and grabbed her shirt sleeve to stop her from going.

Luca turned around and looked at Amur doubtfully.

"Lethandle the rest," Amur said.

Luca might also be trained on the Island of Despair, but she had never taken a human life.

Amur did not want her innocence to be taken away by killing, so he would do all the dirty work himself.

Luca knew what he was thinking. She smiled and handed the spray can to him. "Knock them out first before doing the deed. Don't harm the woman." "I know." Amur nodded and took the spray can.

Luca was thinking about protecting the innocent even when she was on an assassination mission. That was why Amur did not want her to do the deed.

Amur went up the stairs while Luca waited at the bottom of the staircase.

It was silent all around, so Luca did not know what Amur was doing.

Suddenly, she could smell the faint scent of blood. She smiled, knowing that Amur had successfully completed the mission.

She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Amur cdown the stairs. He had successfully completed the mission without getting injured or harming people other than the target.

Luca was glad that Amur could return to the Island of Despair and be reunited with Eler.

"Let's go," Amur said.

Luca nodded and glanced at him. Even though he was dressed in black, she could smell the scent of blood on his clothes. He might have inadvertently splashed himself with blood when doing the deed.

"You'll have to burn the clothes once we get back," she said.

"Yes." Amur nodded.

The two people sneaked out of the mansion and left the neighborhood by the path they cfrom. No one else was alerted.

The next day, the news that a wealthy businessman was killed in his mistress's mansion had spread throughout A City.

The police had cordoned off the area and conducted investigations.

Luca was impassive as she watched the news flash on the television. She knew that the businessman had made his fortune through human trafficking in his younger days. Many innocent young women were ravaged and tortured because of him.

The businessman was influential enough to suppress any scandals about him. Later, he used his ill- gotten gains to start his business.

Using his connections, his business thrived, and his wealth grew.

Luca had no sympathy forthat man. She thought that he deserved to die.

She turned off the television, stood up, and emptied the ashes in a barrel into the trash can. Those were the ashes of Amur's clothes which she had burned because they were stained with blood.

After dealing with that, she left a written note for Amur and went to work.

Many employees at Watson Biopharmaceuticals were concerned about Bianca. The news that Bianca had collapsed at the party spread throughout the company, and the employees crowded around her and asked her if she was okay.

Luca went into the elevator and pressed a button. She was slightly frustrated that the other employees knew that she had collapsed, which meant that they must know that Luke had carried her away too.

She wondered how the rumors would evolve...

That made Luca even more frustrated than ever. Rather than worrying about what Abel might do with the information, she was worried that her colleagues would continue to spread the news.

She was surprised when she met Talia at the Technical Department.

"Talia?" She was not surprised that Talia was recruited into the department, but that the new recruits had already started working.

"Good morning, Dr. Craw," Talia greeted Luca with a smile.

Luca glanced at her nametag and saw that she was Dr. Kidman's assistant

She should have known.

"Good morning. Congratulations that you've becDr. Kidman's assistant, " Luca said, though she did not extend her hand for a handshake.

"Thank you." Talia felt somewhat awkward when she heard that. After all, Luca had seen her in Cole's office.

Luca nodded and said nothing. She went to her office.

She could not care less that Talia had becCole's assistant. All she hoped was that the two people did not disturb her.

As Talia watched Luca leave, she wondered if Luca would spread rumors about what happened between her and Cole. Thinking about it again, Talia realized that Luca had also gained her position through similar means, and she had no right to criticize her.

'Looks like we're not that different after all...'

Talia grinned when she thought about that. However, the grin instantly vanished from her face. She realized that Luca was very different from her.

Luca managed to seduce Luke Crawford, the ideal man, while she could only get Cole Kidman, who was already half a century old. She could not smile when she thought of that.

After Luca returned to her office, Rhett brought her a cup of coffee. "Your coffee, Dr. Craw." "Thanks," Luca said while taking the cup from him and reading the report that he had prepared for him.

Rhett had prepared a report for her because she had missed work the day before.

"Very good," Luca praised Rhett after reading the report.

Rhett smiled sheepishly. He had worked under several other researchers before Luca, but they had nitpicked on his reports, which made him feel inferior.

Luca was the first researcher to praise his report.

Luca put the report away and held the coffee cup tightly in her hands." Right, what did the other people say in my absence yesterday?" "They were discussing you passing out at the party," Rhett replied.

"Is there anything else?" Luca wanted to know.

Rhett shook his head. "That's about it. I don't remember them talking about anything else."

Luca fell silent for a few seconds. She knew that men were not very interested in gossip, so it was normal that Rhett did not know too much about it.

She nodded and said, "Alright, go and get prepared. We'll start the experiments in half an hour."
