Chapter 2053 I Believe In Luca

"Yes. It has recovered.” Luke noticed that Vivian's condition was much better compared to a few

days ago.

“Brother Luke, stay for dinner. I've just learned to cook two Western dishes. Why don't you taste

them for me and rate them?” Vivian invited him.

"Sorry, maybe some other time," Luke recalled that Luca was still in the hotel. He did not know if she

would have her meals on time if he was not there.

Although Luca did not show it on her face, Luke still noticed that something was wrong with her

emotions.

He thought that it must be related to the Island of Despair.

Vivian did not say a word.

Ray's subordinate came up from the basement and headed to the living room. He reported to Ray

helplessly, “Boss, that man still refuses to talk.”

It was just as Ray expected.

“Take turns to interrogate him. Don't let him sleep. Let's see how long he can last.” Ray gave his

orders.

Hansen clenched his fists and said aggressively, “Let me do it this time. I'll teach him a lesson if he

still refuses to talk.”

Vivian saw Hansen's attitude and wondered if he was trying to kill that man.

“Ray, let me try to talk to him,” said Vivian. She would like to try the trick that she had learned from

Luca. Someone happened to be locked in the basement now. If the trick worked on him, they did

not have to take his life. She thought the man might tell her something if he could no longer stand

the pain.

"I've never heard of such a technique.” Ray frowned. Vivian had come back and told Ray that she

had a way to make the man confess yesterday.

However, Ray thought it was not going to work.

After all, Ray had never seen the technique being used before and thought it was impossible.

“You never know if something is going to work or not if you don't give it a try, right?” Vivian

insisted. Then, she turned to look at Luke and said, “Brother Luke, Luca taught me this technique.

You believe in her abilities, right?”

Luca taught her?

Luke asked with curiosity, “What is it?"

Vivian stood beside the coffee table so that they could see her gestures. She practiced the posture

that Luca taught her and said, “That's how it is. Pinch here and he'll be in pain for a few days. It

won't take his life, but he'll be in pain for a few days. Taking painkillers might be able to ease the

pain for a while, but it'll become excruciating over time. Eventually, no painkillers can ease his pain.”

“What harm does it cause to him? It's not life-threatening and there are no injuries. How is it

possible to make him suffer from pain?” Ray thought it just did not make sense. Those who had

some medical skills would have thought that it was impossible too.

Although there were various acupuncture points on the human body in naturopathy, they would

need to continuously stimulate it to have the effects.

It was impossible to just pinch that certain part for a while and have the person be in pain for a few

days.

“This technique...” Luke picked up his cup and took a sip of the coffee.

Vivian and Ray turned to look at him at the same time.

"Luca had done this on someone before—the second young master of the Mallory family, Pierre

Mallory. He had messed with her back then, so she used this technique on him. He couldn't do

anything about it and was admitted to the hospital for a few days. He took painkillers and shots to

relieve his pain. He even got the most expensive painkillers, but they didn't work. But the doctor

couldn't find anything wrong with his body," Luke said calmly.

Luca had undergone training when she was on the Island of Despair. That was why there was no

doubt that she knew about these things.

Vivian could not help but secretly rejoice. She looked at Ray and said, “I told you. Such a technique

does exist. Even Brother Luke had seen it for himself. Just let me try. If I do it wrongly, we can still

ask Luca to come over and help...”

Ray was still a little doubtful after listening to Luke, but he did not blame him.

After all, Luca might have lied to Luke too. Perhaps she had drugged Pierre when she was dealing

with him

“Ray,” Vivian called out his name when Ray did not respond

Ray chose to compromise in front of Luke. It would be better if he stopped doubting Luca. There

was nothing to lose even if there were no effects on the man after Vivian tried it.

“Hansen, bring Ms. Vivian down,” said Ray.

"Alright, Boss.” Hansen would like to see if it was as effective as Vivian mentioned. He did not expect

Ray to give him the chance to see it for himself. He felt excited as he brought Vivian to the

basement.

Luke watched the two of them leave and asked, “Aren't you following them down there?”

"Honestly, I'm still doubting it,” Ray smiled bitterly. “I'm not doubting you, but the technique. Is

there such a technique in this world?”

“I believe in Luca. And do you know why?” Luke suddenly lowered his voice.

'Is it because you like her?’ Ray thought to himself, but he dared not to say it out. After all, he could

clearly see how Luke felt for Bianca back then.

If he was in love with Luca now, would that not mean that he had fallen for someone else while

married?

"I have no idea,” Ray spoke in a depressed tone. There was no way he could make any judgments

about the relationship matters of others. Otherwise, he would not have let Vivian and Gordan end

up in this state.

“Tell your men to clear out and I'll tell you,” said Luke. It was hard to keep one’s mouth shut. Ray

could keep it a secret, but not the others.

Ray made a gesture, signaling the maids and bodyguards in the living room to leave.

“You can tell me now."

Luke was still cautious. He picked up his phone and typed on the phone screen.

Ray did not rush him as he knew Luke was careful. Hence, he let Luke take his time and type on the

phone screen.

Luke typed out a message for Ray: [Luca's real identity is Bianca. She was kidnapped by the people

from the Island of Despair. They changed her appearance and arranged for her to be placed by my

side. I've been trying to figure out how she’s being manipulated by the Island of Despair. That's why

I haven't exposed Luca's identity.]

Ray widened his eyes when he saw this. “Is that true?”

"Yes." Luke took his phone back and deleted everything that he had typed. "I don't have a reason to

lie to you. At the same time, I hope you can keep this a secret for me.”

"Of course.” Ray still felt surprised, but everything seemed to make sense after Luke told him about

it.

The reason why Luke was concerned about Luca was simple. Luca was Bianca..

Luke rose to his feet and said, “I'd like to see what's going on down there.”

“Let's go together.” Ray stood up too. Although Luke believed in Luca, Ray still doubted if that

technique would work.

The two of them came to the basement together.

Vivian took the towel and wiped her hands when they walked in.

"You haven't started?” Ray asked.

Vivian shook her head and replied, “It's done.”

"Then..." Ray glanced at the man with his head down, not saying a word. Was this even a sign of him

being in pain?

"Don't worry. Luca told me that this technique can't be used for self-defense as it's not going to

work immediately. You'll have to wait for a few hours," said Vivian.

Although Vivian had no idea if she did it right, she did what Luca told her.

Ray looked at the bodyguard who was guarding here and instructed, "Keep an eye on him. Report

to me immediately if there's anything unusual.”
