Chapter 2894 Beautiful Women Seem To Marry Quickly

"Mr. Marcos, it's okay." Luca smiled and shook her head.

"Well, Mr. Crawford, there's something else I need to tell you," Marcos glanced around. Since it was

getting late, there were very few people walking around the hospital. They had not seen anyone

nearby.

Luke slightly nodded, waiting for him to say something

"My uncle, he's thinking about escaping from prison.” Marcos said that in front of Luca because he

knew she would not betray Luke and him.

Luca frowned when she heard that. Matysh just would not give up.

However, escaping from prison in A City was not something easy.

Luke let out a chuckle, something seldom seen. Matysh wanted to escape from prison. Breaking out

of prison was a serious crime in A City.

"It seems like he thinks the sentences handed down for his two crimes aren't long enough.”

The implication was that Matysh was begging for trouble, determined to add a third charge to his

record.

Marcos gave a faint smile, witnessing Luke's sense of humor for the first time. Even though it was far

from a lighthearted jest, the eerie tone in his voice clearly indicated that Matysh was getting into

trouble.

Marcos continued, "As far as I know, Ethan will be the one arranging the escape plan. And there's a

high chance that they're planning to stage a prison break when they're on their way to the

courthouse.”

"This is an important piece of information. Thank you," Luke responded with gratitude this time.

The police officers in A City had always been meticulous in their work. Matysh might not be able to

escape even if he managed to find someone to confront them.

However, the people Ethan would recruit were definitely not average bodyguards.

Therefore, making preparations in advance and doing last-minute preparations were two different

matters.

Marcos checked the time and said, "It's getting late. I have to head to a nightclub later. Mr.

Crawford, Ms. Craw, I'll take my leave.”

"Goodbye." Luca waved at him. Then, she returned to the car with Luke.

After fastening her seatbelt, she thought about how Sarah had suffered for so many years before

eventually reuniting with Marcos. She could not help but feel deeply moved by it.

When would she be able to reunite with her loved one and children, just like Sarah?

"What's on your mind?" Luke heard her soft sigh and asked after he started the car engine.

"Ms. Poplar has been through a lot, but fortunately, she persevered through the hardships. She

finally has her happy ending.” Luca smiled as she gazed at the receding scenery along the road.

The weather in A City was getting warmer. The plants filled the air with vitality.

The vegetation strip by the roadside had also grown lush. The streetlights cast a gentle glow on the

plants, illuminating the entire stretch of road.

The night felt tranquil and mysterious. Luke drove a bit slower than usual. "The key lies ahead.

Marcos must make the most of this opportunity to secure everything he needs. Otherwise, neither

he nor his mother can truly reunite.”

It left a deeply resonating impression on Luca.

While others could easily reunite with their family, it felt like an extravagant wish for them.

It was not just Marcos but also her.

Luca unconsciously intertwined her fingers when she thought about her situation.

Even though the antidote had been developed, she still had to go to the A City’s base to take it.

If she did not take it regularly, she would arouse suspicion. Tomorrow would be the last day for her

to take the antidote.

At the thought of the kids being sent back home by Zander tomorrow, Luca said, "I'll need to head

out tomorrow. I'll go out to get some groceries since the kids are coming back.”

"I'll go with you," replied Luke, sensing the disappointment in her tone.

"It's okay. It's just a few things. I can manage on my own," said Luca as she shook her head. If

someone came along with her, it would not be conducive to her visit to the base for the antidote.

Luke remained silent for a moment before agreeing. "Alright. Do you need Warren to drive you

there?"

"It's the weekend. Let him rest. I'll drive myself." Luca shook her head, knowing that having Warren

to follow her would make things difficult for her.

"Okay." Luke did not insist.

When Luca mentioned going out and not letting Luke accompany her, he could probably guess

what she was going to do.

Rain told him that the Island of Despair relied on poison to control everyone. Things could go

wrong if one did not take the antidote on schedule.

Therefore, Luca was most likely going to take the antidote at this time.

Luke did not insist on going with her.

The following day, Luca got up early. She prepared the soup that she was going to bring to the

hospital. After she instructed Aunt Neile to simmer it later, she made some simple snacks for the

kids. Then, after having breakfast with Luke, she drove the car and left.

After a while, Gale reported to Luke what had happened in the past few days.

Gale asked curiously when he did not see Luca around, "Boss, where's Dr. Craw?"

"She went out,” answered Luke. While reading the documents Gale handed to him, he frowned and

asked, "What's Karen up to?"

"I think you should ask the mother and son what they're up to.” Gale grinned mischievously,

revealing a row of teeth shining brilliantly white.

"Are they thinking of getting rid of Luca?" Luke looked at the information. Karen had hired a private

detective to tail Luca. They had taken quite a few photos of her. Karen contacted Myra and

Margaret as well.

"Seems like it, but Karen doesn't dare to act without caution because of Pierre's matter. It's unlikely

that she'll pose a threat to Dr. Craw's life. But you know when women start causing trouble, they can

be completely unreasonable. I'm worried Dr. Craw might end up at a disadvantage without knowing

it," explained Gale. That was also why he wanted to find Luca.

He could at least remind her to stay alert.

Luke closed the file. The depths of his eyes were dark. "Karen is targeting Luca? Keep an eye on her.

Don't miss a single move."

"Alright. Should we inform Dr. Craw?" Gale sought his opinion. After all, it was Luke's decision

whether or not to let her know about this.

"There's no need to tell her for now," replied Luke. He had a vague sense that Karen might stir up

trouble and there was a chance it could work to his advantage.

Luke planned to continue observing and not do anything for the time being.

"Got it." Gale nodded.

On the other hand, Luca left the villa and came to the base located in the suburban area. After she

took the antidote and underwent an examination, she drove back to the city.

When she was reminded about how unhappy the kids were at Crawford Manor, she stopped by a

toy store and bought some educational toys for them.

These toys would not only keep the kids occupied but also strengthen their bond.

Then, Luca picked some children's books suitable for their age as well.

Even though Lanie and Rainie were currently in elementary school, the books they read were

completely different. Luca started by picking out some advanced extracurricular books that kids in

higher grades would read for Lanie. As for Rainie, she chose the kind of storybooks that most girls

would enjoy.

Lastly, she picked out Tommy's books.

She had had the kids by her side since they were little. Even though she was away for three years, all

this while had been sufficient to reintroduce her to her kids preferences.

After quickly making her selection, she proceeded to check out.

Luca bought quite a few items. The store assistant kindly helped her carry them to the door. After

placing everything on the back seat, Luca thanked the store assistant and then drove away.

The store assistant headed back to the store and could not help but sigh. “That woman looks young,

yet she's already a mother of three. It's true, though. Beautiful women seem to marry quickly and

marry well."
