Chapter 1389
Luke clenched his fists as he looked at the impostor’s contorted face. She was in so much pain, yet she did not give up the chance to mock him.
“My son is fine,” he said coldly.
The impostor abruptly stopped laughing when she heard that, and she stared at Luke in disbelief. ‘His son is fine? That can’t be!’
She struggled to get a closer look at the man in front of him. His expression did not seem like that of a liar.
‘If Tommy is fine… did someone save him?’
She could only think of one person that could save Tommy, and that person was Luca.
Luca was also from the Island of Despair, and she was very concerned about the three children’s well- being. The impostor wondered if Luca had thought about her when she saved Tommy.
Luca must have found out that the impostor was the one who poisoned Tommy with the bacteria, and she would definitely want to confront her. If Luca tried to detect her location, she would definitely find out where she was.
The impostor began to feel nervous. Did Luca already know about her predicament but was not planning to save her?
The impostor wanted to sit up so that she could look at Luke eye to eye, but the sedative was already taking effect. Her consciousness slipped away, and she slowly closed her eyes.
Luke continued to glare at the woman, even though she had already fallen asleep. He did not unclench his fists for a very long time.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRain was worried that the impostor Bianca would not last for long without the antidote. It would be much more difficult to find the real Bianca.
“Boss…” she spoke, but Gale stopped her.
Rain turned to look at Gale. Gale shook his head and said, “Go. Take a blood sample.”
Rain nodded, took out a clean syringe, and drew half a tube of blood.
“When can you get results?” Luke asked. He was not worried about the impostor, though he did not want her to die so quickly.
“I’ll need at least three hours. The equipment I have isn’t very advanced,” Rain said as she held a tray and looked at Luke. “Boss, Tommy is still in the hospital, and you should go and accompany him. When I get the results, I’ll let you know immediately.”
“The caretaker is at the hospital, so there’s no need to worry. I’ll wait here,” Luke said and walked out of the basement.
Rain told Gale, “Keep a close eye on her. I’ll be at the lab analyzing the blood sample.”
“Mm.” Gale nodded.
Rain took the tube of blood and quickly went to the makeshift laboratory she had set up for herself.
Luke sat on the couch in the living room. His thoughts wandered from the impostor Bianca to the real Bianca. When his thoughts went to Luca, he began to feel inexplicably flustered.
He had always thought that he had a firm grip on things. This three-year-long ordeal, however, was the only thing that he felt unconfident about.
The more he thought about it, the more troubled he got. He went to the wine cellar, took out a bottle of red wine, and began to drink from it while waiting for the test results.
Rain cout of her lab around midnight. She had a grim expression on her face.
“How is it?” Luke asked.
Rain handed the report to Luke. “According to the analysis, the concentration of poison in her body is indeed very high, but it’ll take stto discern what type of poison it is. Worse yet…”
“What?” Luke took a swig of wine when he heard that the impostor Bianca was poisoned.
“Even if I know what type of poison it is, I still don’t know its source yet. I can spend sttrying to find its source, but I don’t know how long it’ll take, not to mention finding out the components of the antidote…” Rain said grimly. “Only the creator of the poison knows how to cure it. You can find the best toxicologist in the world, and they won’t be able to tell you how long they’ll take to make the antidote. I don’t think the impostor Bianca can wait that long.”
Luke could understand the implications of Rain’s words.
The best researchers in the field that he knew were Johann and Luca. Even if they worked together, they could not guarantee that they could save the impostor’s life.
Rain could see that Luke was displeased. She said, “Boss, knowing how the Island of Despair operates, they must have a base of operations in A City so that the impostor Bianca can take her monthly antidote. Now that it’s tfor her to take her antidote and she doesn’t show up, the people from the Island of Despair will definitely suspect something. I don’t think it’ll take them long to find our whereabouts.”
What Rain said was most likely true, but her words also reminded Luke of something else.
The impostor Bianca would have to go to a specific place every month to take the antidote. If they could find its location using the car’s dashcam, they would be able to find more people from the Island of Despair.
Luke took out his phone and gave a call to Jason, ignoring the fact that it was past midnight.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yes, Mr. Crawford?” Jason said.
“Go to Crawford Manor, find Bianca’s car, and remove the dashcam,” Luke said.
“Yes,” Jason replied.
After Luke ended the call, Rain raised her suspicions. “Boss, the impostor Bianca probably only goes to the base of operations once every month. If the dashcam is always on, would the previous records be overwritten?”
“I don’t know if we can find it, but the memory card in the dashcam is the biggest one on the market.”
Luke had bought the car for the impostor Bianca because she wanted one. He was worried that something might happen to her because she had lost her memories, so he had installed a dashcam on her car and equipped it with the biggest memory card.
He had never accessed the memory card before, so he did not know if the dashcam would overwrite any old records when the memory was full.
In any case, that was the only clue they had.
“I hope that the dashcam can help us,” Rain said grimly.
She had just finished speaking when Gale cto them and said anxiously, “She woke up and started twitching again.”
“I’ll go and check on her.” Rain dashed into the basement immediately.
The impostor Bianca lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling. Her entire body, including her eyes, was twitching. She looked like an entirely different person.
Rain deftly inserted another dose of sedative into the syringe. She tried to find a vein, but the twitching made her unable to do so. She removed her clothes and said to Gale, “Cand helphold her down. I want to give her an intracardiac injection.”
