Chapter 87- Lucca's hatred.

"Lucca—"

Just as Lucca was on the verge of grinding her teeth in frustration, Karl's voice came from inside the room. She quickly composed herself, replacing her anger with a practiced smile as she walked in.

Inside the room, Karl beamed as he took her hand.

"Lucca, she agreed to go abroad, but she says we need to take care of things with Vice President Wilson. Do you have any good ideas?"

Lucca suppressed the disgust rising in her chest, calmly pulling her hand away from his not-so-innocent grasp.

"Director, didn't you handle the approval for the land Vice President Wilson invested in last time? You're the one who used your connections to get it approved. He owes you a favor!"

"Oh! Right, right, right—yes, yes, yes!"

At her words, Karl quickly remembered and nodded vigorously. It seemed like the plan was nearly set. If they didn't act fast and get Cynthia out of the way, who knew what his precious son might do next.
