Chapter 1309 Aren’t You Going to Let Us In?
He realized that Abel would not hesitate to harm Luca if it meant that he got his revenge against Luke.
If Luke had ignored the stream, someone else would have found Luca. Amur dared not imagine what would happen
to her if that were the case.
Luca’s eyelids drooped. Even though she was fully unconscious throughout the entire ordeal, thinking about it now
made her feel afraid.
A few years on the Island of Despair had hardened Luca's heart, but even so, she could not help but feel afraid of
what Abel had done to her.
If taking revenge on Luke involved harming her, she would have to be more careful in the future.
"Amur, you should return to the island after you've completed your mission," she said.
She had a feeling that Amur would be harmed if he continued to stay by her side. She might be implicated as well.
"I'm not going back," Amur shook his head and said. Now that Abel had done something like that to Luca, he was
not going to leave her alone in A City.
"No. I don't know what Abel is planning next, but I know that if you continue to stay here, you'll be involved as well.
Go
back and help me take care of Nyla," Luca said. Other than the siblings, she was also very worried about Nyla.
"My mission now is to protect you by your side," Amur told her the truth. "The drug that I stole from Solomon is
developed by a criminal organization in New York, and Abel wants the recipe so that Shanks could make an even

Luca did not say anything. She nodded, indicating for Amur to continue.
"Abel knew that I wanted to stay by your side, so he gave me the mission. Once I complete it, I can stay by your
side without having to rush back to the island."
Luca was conflicted after hearing what he said.
Even so, she raised her doubts. "That drug should have been very difficult to obtain. How did Solomon get his hands
on it? n
"Solomon has a regular buyer, and he's only the middleman between the buyer and the organization. I managed to
find out about that, so I tried to obtain it from Solomon," Amur said.
He knew how headstrong Luca could be. If he did not tell her the truth, she would insist that he return to the island.
Luca sighed when she heard that. Even though Solomon was only a minor character in the illicit dealing, Amur
probably could not afford to offend the criminal organization behind Solomon.
Abel was lucky to obtain what he wanted from Solomon, but would he be lucky enough to escape from the
organization?
With him by his side, she had to be wary of Abel as well as the organization.
"You've offended Solomon and stole the drug from him. The criminal organization won't let you off that easily.
Solomon and his gang have seen your face... No, you'll have to return to the island. It's safer for you there," Luca
said.
Even though Amur was a proficient fighter, he could not possibly fight against an entire organization.
Abel was not stupid. He would rather sacrifice Amur than go against the organization.
Amur knew Luca's worries. He shook his head and said, "I've already dealt with it yesterday. You don't have to
worry."
When Luca heard that, she turned on her laptop and searched for Solomon's name in the browser.
There was a news report saying that Solomon and two other men were found dead in an alley.
The local police knew Solomon's background, and they attributed his death to a gang conflict.
Luca knew that Amur would not leave a trace, so the police would not be able to track him down.
"Dead men can't speak," Amur said.
Luca frowned. "But you only killed him yesterday."
"Mm." Amur nodded.
"I'm still worried that he told the organization about it after you let him go the day before yesterday. What would
you do? " Luca did not know that the drug was so highly sought after. If she did, she would have killed Solomon right
there and then.
"He won't tell anyone," Amur said confidently. "The organization trusts Solomon to keep the existence of the drug a
secret. That's why they tried to search for me after I stole the drug instead of informing the organization."
Luca breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that.
Now that the only people who knew that Amur had stolen the drug had died, she had nothing else to worry about.
In any case, she had no sympathy for Solomon.
Solomon must have lived a life of crime. It was perhaps a good thing that he was dead.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAmur said, "Now that I've completed my mission, I can stay by your side. You'll also have an extra helping hand."
"Alright then." Luca knew that Amur was a stubborn one. She stopped convincing him to leave.
Moreover, she realized that she really needed the help.
Her strength alone was not enough to guard against Abel's plot and protect Luke at the same time.
Now that Luca had agreed to it, Amur went to the bathroom and retrieved his phone. "You still look tired. You should
rest.
"Alright." Luca was indeed feeling tired after the conversation. She saw him out, then lay on the bed, took a
sleeping pill, and fell asleep.
When she opened her eyes again, she did not know what time it was.
The doorbell was ringing. Luca sat up slowly. She looked outside the window and saw that it was already dark.
The sleeping pill put her in a deep sleep. She had a dream that she was together with Luke and her four children.
In the dream, they were living together happily.
The doorbell rang again. Luca came to her senses. The wistful feeling that she got from the dream was gone.
She stepped off the bed and opened the door. Luke and Tommy were standing outside.
When Tommy saw her, he waved at her and greeted her," Good evening, Ms. Luca."
"Good evening." Luca scratched the back of her head when she saw the two people. She felt a little underdressed.
Luke nodded. He saw that Luca had only opened the door slightly, and one of her hands was on the doorknob.
"Ms. Luca, aren't you going to let us go in?" Tommy asked.
Luca was quite reluctant to do that, but she could not bear to let the child stand there. She opened the door wide,
stepped aside, and said, "Please come in."
