Chapter 2040

Nyla knew that Eler would not get angry with her. She said cheekily, "Eler, I'm sorry. I'll never say such things again."

"Okay, I forgive you this time." Eler pinched the tip of her nose and smiled.

Nyla put the glass of water aside, hugged her arm, and muttered, "Eler, I miss Mommy so much."

Eler patted her head and assured her, saying, "I'm looking for a chance. Give it some time and we can have a video call with her."

"When will she be back?" Eler asked her with wide eyes.

"It'll be soon. She'll be back when she finishes her mission." Eler coaxed her.

"I hope Mommy can come back soon. I miss her." Nyla leaned on her shoulder and said, feeling aggrieved.

Eler stroked her head.

It was important for parents to be by their kids' side as they grew up.

Unfortunately, Nyla's father still did not know the existence of Nyla while Luca was forced to go out to perform missions.

Meanwhile, on the other hand.

Luca arrived at the nearby stronghold. Although it was nearby, it was also some distance away. After she arrived, she was asked to answer the password before she even had time to brush the snow off her body.

After she gave them the password, she was brought in by a woman.

This was a shop that had a sign of a beauty salon at the front. The interior was bright. It was much better than the stronghold in A City.

Neither Luca nor the woman who brought her in knew that Gale's men were watching them from outside.

"Wait here." The woman brought Luca to the front of a private room and said.

"Okay." Luca sat down. She knew that the beauty salon was just a cover-up. Nevertheless, those from the Island of Despair could not blatantly carry out their activities in the beauty salon.

After all, this place was mostly for women.

On the Island of Despair, the ratio of males to females was unbalanced. The majority of them were men. She assumed that there would be a dark room for these people to attend to their tasks.

Luca watched as the woman reached the end of the corridor and disappeared around the corner. She waited quietly and did not follow.

There was no point being curious about these.

'What if I find the dark room? Infiltrating comes with a huge risk. Taking the antidotes is twice as risky.'

She could not afford to take that risk because she could not bear to part with Luke and the kids.

After about five minutes, the woman who brought her in returned and said to her, "Let's go, it's ready."

Luca followed behind the woman and walked through the long corridor. They got to the end. She followed the woman's footsteps, and they continued to walk. After about a few meters, the woman stopped in front of a door.

Luca watched the woman enter the password, then unlock another lock with her pupil. She then understood that they were standing in front of the secret door.

It was not difficult to unlock the door, but along the way, she had discovered the mystery of the corridor.

In addition to security cameras, there were infrared sensors in the corridor. If everything was activated, it was likely that the alarm would sound if a fly flew in.

After the pupil lock was successfully unlocked, the woman pushed open the door and glanced at her. "Go in."

Luca walked in.

The woman did not follow her in. She closed the door with the back of her hand.

All the lights were turned on the moment the door was closed. Luca was calm and did not panic just because she was locked in this confined space.

Luca looked at the door not far away, stepped forward, and opened it.

A secret room was behind the door.

Two men were sitting inside. The secret room was full of things. The place was not neat but was much cleaner compared to A City.

"You're here for the antidote?" the man asked in Russian.

"Yes." Luca nodded coldly.

"Name?" the man said.

"Ivana Luca Craw," Luca replied with the name Abel gave her.

"Do you have the tattoo?" the man asked.

"I don't have a tattoo on my body, but I have this..." Luca pulled out a dagger with the logo of the Island of Despair inscribed on it.

After he verified it, the man handed one of the bottles of antidote to her. "It's the first time I've seen you here. As per the rules, you have to drink it on the spot. You can leave only after you're done." Luca took it, opened the lid, and sniffed it lightly.

"It's the antidote. It can't be wrong." The man chuckled when he saw her being so cautious.

Luca confirmed that it was the antidote after she sniffed it. She then chugged the bottle.

After she was done, she handed the bottle back to the man.

The man took it, glanced at the empty bottle, and said, "Say something?" "What?" Luca wondered.

The man explained sternly, "There was a guy from before who kept the antidote in his mouth when he was drinking the antidote. He wanted to take it to a pharmacist to analyze the ingredients and make the antidote himself to break free from the organization. As such, after drinking the medicine, you have to say something to prove that there's no antidote in your mouth before you can go."

Luca frowned. 'Isn't that what I did before?'

Nevertheless, she was certain that the person the man mentioned was not her.

If they found out what she did, it was unlikely that she would get off scot-free.

Luca turned around and was about to leave when heard the conversation between the two men.

"There's a new mission," the other man said.

The man heard him and asked, "Who's the target?"

"The target is Luke Crawford. Boss mentioned that we have to carry out this task as soon as possible as the target task may return to A City. The task will become more difficult if it's carried out when he's back to his home ground," the man said.

Luca's hand was on the doorknob. Her heart tightened when she heard the conversation between the two men.

'The Island of Despair is going to make a move on Luke?'

"They don't think of us as humans! We don't know where this person is now but we're expected to make a move as soon as possible? Even if the client paid a high price, this isn't how they should do things. Sigh." The other man could not help but complain.

"That's enough. You might as well start looking for him rather than complaining here. After the mission is completed, we'll get a commission," the man said. He noticed that Luca had not left and asked, "What are you still doing here?"

"I don't know how to open this door..." Luca pretended to be ignorant to reassure these men.

"The button in the middle," the man replied impatiently.

Luca pressed the button and walked out of the secret room. She could not stop thinking about what the man just said.

The Island of Despair wanted to hurt Luke, and the mission had to be carried out as soon as possible...

"You're out." The woman kept standing at the door. When she saw Luca coming out, she urged. "Leave quickly. If someone asks you what you were doing here, tell them that you came here for a facial."

"Got it." Luca agreed casually and headed out with the woman.

After she left the beauty salon, she took out her phone but did not know how to convey this information to Luke. When she was hesitating, she thought of a way to go about it.

She would get Amur to create a fake email address for her so that she could send an email to Luke to notify him.

After she thought of that, she glanced around. There were very few vehicles and pedestrians on the road because of the snow.
