Chapter 714
Lucas’ expression instantly turned sharp and serious. “The nurses stole my blood sample?”
Edmund nodded. “Yes. I think this is a really serious matter so I’ve already arranged for our men to escort those
two nurses back to New Capital City.”
Lucas stood up and straightened up his suit. “Where are they now?”
“They’re kept under watch in the basement.”
“Bring me there now!”
“Yes, Mister Lucas!”
In the basement.
Although it was called the “basement”, it was nonetheless very richly decorated with all the furniture one would

At that moment, the two nurses were locked up in one of the rooms. They were shivering, crying, and hugging each
other since no one bothered to explain to them what was going on. One of them was on the verge of having a
breakdown when suddenly she plucked up
the courage to kneel in front of the two bodyguards watching over them.
“Please, Sir. I’m just a poor girl who came from a poor family. There’s no money to be gained. from kidnapping me
so please let me go. I swear I won’t report this to the police if you just let. me go,” she pleaded.
The other nurse also knelt down in front of the bodyguards and said, “I also come from a poor family. In fact, my
father had to borrow money from our relatives to pay for my school fees and till now, we haven’t even cleared the
debt. So you see, Sir… there’s really no use in kidnapping us two… Won’t you please find it in your heart to let us
go?”
The bodyguards were trained to remain unmoved by any sort of begging. In fact, they did not even spare them a
glance, no matter how they cried and pleaded. Suddenly, sounds of footsteps could be heard coming from outside
the door and not long after, the door swung
open.
Edmund proceeded to enter and flicked his chin at the bodyguards to signal them to leave the room. The
bodyguards immediately nodded and backed out of the room respectfully. The two nurses thought Edmund was the
mastermind behind the kidnapping and they immediately backed away in fear, wrapped their trembling arms
around each other, and looked at Edmund.
Ignoring them, Edmund pulled a chair to the middle of the room before going out to ask Lucas to come in. Lucas
walked in slowly and threw a cold, sharp glance at both of the nurses, which was enough to send them crying and
shaking again.

The two nurses immediately recognized Lucas. How could they not when he was the most handsome man she had
ever come across in her life? They began to whisper amongst themselves.
“It’s him! The handsome man who came to donate his blood at the hospital that day.”
“So he’s the mastermind behind our kidnapping? Why would he do such a thing like this?”
“Do you think he brought us here to be his s*x slaves?”
“What the h*ll? Is that all you could think about at a time like this? Aren’t you afraid that we might end up dead at
all?”
“Well, what else could it be? I mean… I don’t remember ever crossing him.”
Lucas sat down gracefully on the chair and accepted the coffee Edmund passed him. He took a sip before saying,
“What are the two of you talking about? Why don’t you speak up so that I can join in the conversation?”
The nurses found Lucas to be less intimidating than Edmund so they decided to say what was on their mind. “Mister
Lucas, we remember you. You came to our hospital to donate your blood not long ago so it should be safe to think
that you’re a good person who wouldn’t hurt the innocent, right?”
