Chapter 2424
Luna furrowed herbrows in surprise. "Those people... kidnapped Sean and Kate while they were
under your watch?"
Luke’s expression darkened upon hearing this.
He shifted into a comfortable position in his chair, placed his arm elegantly on the back of the
chair, then shot Luna a cold glance. "Why are you so shocked?"
He glanced at the glass window, which offered a full view of Kate in the next room, being
examined by the doctors, and said calmly, "I've already told Jim and Joshua about Kate's true
identity, so surely you must know, too?"
Luna paused for a moment, then nodded.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe had indeed heard Joshua and the rest mention Kate's background before.
Kate had hailed from a rich and noble family from Europa, and even though she had left her home country, her
family had secretly been keeping tabs on her.
If they found out that she had gone missing or had been kidnapped, they would fly to Merchant city and would not
cease to turn the entire place upside down in search of her.
This was why Jim and Joshua had been so anxious about finding her after Luke revealed her true identity to them.
"Since you know her identity, you should know that rd never let my guard down when it comes to protecting her."
A year ago, Luke had been forced to buy illegal firearms from Kate's family to win his territorial fight against the
gangsters of Merchant city. Because of this, he owed them a favor and was forced to take Kate in when she needed
his help.
Despite her small stature, she was a woman with strong opinions.
Initially, Luke thought she had come to Merchant City out of curiosity and would return home after a while, but to
his surprise, she had chosen to remain by his side even a year later.
In two more months, she would have been with him for a full year, and he had planned to send her home to Europa
then. Clearly, the universe had other ideas.
"Your men had been protecting Kate and Sean all this while?" Jim narrowed his eyes upon hearing this. He was
staring at Luke, but his gaze seemed to penetrate past Luke C:[kJ5TY was lost to a different place. " Whoever did
this must've been someone powerful to be able to kidnap them from right under your nose."
Then, he turned to glance at Joshua. "Do you know who this person is?"
Joshua narrowed his eyes and fell silent for a long time before finally meeting Jim's gaze. "I know who it is, but I
don't plan on telling either of you for the time being." 1
Jim narrowed his eyes in displeasure.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuke's expression darkened, and with this, the entire room seemed to turn a few degrees colder.
Jim wanted to seek revenge for his brother's kidnapping, whereas Luke wanted to regain his
dignity.
Joshua knew this, and he could not help smiling when he glanced at them. "I know what you two
want, but... He sighed, lowered his head, and fiddled with the lighter in his hand. "I have my
plans to deal with this person."
Then, he glanced at Jim and Luke out of the corner of his eye and added, "If the two of you were
to get involved, it might alert him to my intentions."
Jim was silent for a long time, then finally lifted his head to smile at Joshua. "Alright, but you
have to promise me that you'd let me know after you're done with him. I'm going to beat the
shit out of whoever this person is."
"Me too." Luke glanced impassively at Joshua, then stood up. "Since you want to take care of
him first, I won't interfere, but if this person offends me once more, or worse, shows up at my
face..."
