Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Chapter 3259 Not A Chance At All Abel was no longer sitting on the couch. Instead, he was off to the side, wearing boxing gloves and punching a heavy bag.

Luca knew she could not just leave, so she stood there and waited until he was done. After a while, he took off the gloves and asked, "How's the experiment going?" "No idea," replied Luca.

Abel looked at her with obvious displeasure. "You were in there all afternoon!" Luca shook her head. "I don't know what Mr. Shanks' experiment is about, so how could I know how it's going? I was just there to assist." Abel was at a loss for words for a moment, but he knew she was right.

He let out a cold snort and dismissed her. "Hmph, whatever. Get out." As Luca observed how much Abel cared about the experiment, it only confirmed her suspicions.

This experiment Shanks was working on was for Abel's benefit.

However, what exactly was this experiment? Luca was puzzled, but she dared not to dig deeper while she was in the lab. She feared that if she seemed too curious, Shanks would get suspicious.

Her priority now was to keep Abel stable, not to arouse his suspicions. She had to wait for Luke to find the right moment to take down the organization.

After Abel dismissed her, she quickly left the room.

Downstairs, the sman was still guarding the door.

When he saw Luca coming down, he asked, "Done with the experiment?" Luca frowned. "You knew I was there for the experiment?" "What else? You're the only one in the entire A City base who can help Mr. Shanks with his experiments. If you weren't here for that, what else could it be?" the man replied. As the gatekeeper for the A City base, he was aware of what Shanks and Abel were up to.

Shanks was working on a critical experiment, but no one at the base, not even Abel himself, had any expertise in pharmaceuticals.

That was why Luca was brought in.

Without waiting for Luca to respond, the man added, "People with skills like yours get big rewards. I bet the boss will give you something nice for helping out." Luca thought to herself that she would be lucky enough if Abel did not screw her over.

She remained silent and headed for the door.

The man saw this and asked, "Did you drive here?" "No," replied Luca, frowning. It was rare to find someone as talkative as this man on the Island of Despair.

"It's pretty late, and this area is tough for getting a cab. Wantto give you a ride?" he offered.

"No need." Luca was wary of any sudden kindness, suspecting ulterior motives.

The man looked a bit disappointed. As she opened the door, he said, "My name's Kyle." Luca paused for a moment and gave Kyle a strange look.

In the end, she did not say anything. She pulled the door open, walked out, shut the door behind her, and left without a word.

Kyle felt a little regretful. He thought she might respond, but to his surprise, she just left. While he was still feeling a bit wistful, Abel's voice cfrom behind him. "You like her?" Kyle jumped and turned around, only to find that Abel had somehow snuck up behind him.

"Boss!" He snapped to attention, though his face turned a bit red.

Abel's expression was odd. "Do you like her?" he asked again.

Kyle shook his head. "No, I don't." "Don't lie to me!" Abel's expression suddenly turned serious.

Kyle jumped in surprise and replied, "It's not that I like her. It's just that I've got a bit of a crush on her." Abel nodded, understanding what he meant.

"A bit of a crush, huh? But you do know she's already got a man, right?" he replied.

Kyle nodded. "I know her mission is to get close to a man and extract secrets." Abel's smile turned wicked. "And that doesn't bother you?" "It's just a mission. She doesn't have a choice. Nothing to be bothered about," replied Kyle. They all had to do things they did not want to in the Island of Despair. If they let it get to them, they would not last long.

Abel understood and continued, "But that man she's getting close to is actually her husband." Kyle was shocked. He did not know that.

Abel went on, "She's willing to get close to her own husband to complete a mission. Do you really think a woman like that is worth liking?" Kyle stayed silent.

Abel added, "If she ever accepts your advances, you'd better watch out." "Why?" asked Kyle, feeling confused.

"If she ever accepts your advances, it means you're useful to her. A woman like that is a real seductress. She'll use her charm to drain every last drop out of a man," replied Abel.

Kyle shuddered. He refused to believe Luca was that kind of person, but Abel's words were terrifying.

Considering Abel was the one who knew Luca best on the Island of Despair, Kyle could not help but start to believe him.

Abel continued, "But don't worry, she's not interested in you." Kyle could not help but ask, "Why not?" "She likes men with power, status, or skills. What do you have?" sneered Abel, giving him a disdainful look.

If Kyle had any real talent, he would not be stuck at the A City base.

The skilled ones were always out on missions, not hanging around in one city, playing gatekeeper. Of course, except for Amur.

He chose to stay in A City to protect Luca, missing out on many missions and opportunities to earn points.

NO Making money was the ultimate goal for every man on the Island of Despair. Kyle scratched the back of his head and mumbled, "Well, I'm pretty good at fighting, I guess?"

"Better than the prisoners we have, sure, but there are plenty of plenty of guysn stronger than you! What makes you N think Ivana would be interested in you?" Abel pulled out a cigar. Kyle thought what he said was right! Abel could see his words were having an effect. One Amur was enough. He could not allow anyone else in the A City base to fall for Luca.

Hence, he added, "I suggest you give up. Besides, you're not the only one who's into her." "Who else?" Kyle asked, almost naively.

"Apart from you, there's Shanks, and then there's Amur. Do you really think you're better than either of them?* questioned Abel.

Kyle fell silent. He knew both men, and they were indeed superior to him.

Abel lit his cigar, took a slow drag, and exhaled a smoke ring before om Saying, "And outside of the island of Despair, there's also her husband. He's rich and powerful. You think you can compete with that?" Kyle did not want to say anything more. He felt frustrated with himself for even entertaining the thought.

As Abel saw Kyle practically shrink into himself, he added "Just focus on your job as a gatekeeper. If you're up for it, I can offer you the chance to go back to the Island of Despair for further training. Maybe one day, you'll be strong enough to stand a chance." "Thanks, boss," Kyle replied gloomily. He could not help but think to himself that he was totally out of his league in this competition! With her husband, Shanks, and Amur all in the mix, did he even stand a chance?
