Queenie did not say a word as the sight of Luca's desperate face made her heart ache.
What else could she do? After hearing how much Luca had gone through, she just wanted
to hold her and feel the joy of having her daughter back by her side.
However, Luca has not stated the reason.
Queenie was at a loss as to what the Island of Despair had on Luca that would make her
willingly work for them!
Queenie added fuel to the fire by breathing harder and inserting the oxygen tubes into her
nostrils before removing them after a few seconds.
Luca thought that Queenie had finally believed her, but after she removed the oxygen
tubes, she realized that was not the case.
Then, she dropped to her knees again.
Queenie's chest tightened in pain when she saw Luca kneel on the ground.
“Mom, Luke and I... have another daughter." Luca took a deep breath as she revealed the
reason why the Island of Despair still had control over her.
Queenie's eyes widened, and for a split second, she forgot that she was acting.
This morning, Luke, Wanda, and she had come up with several hypotheses as to why Luca
might be under their control. However, no one expected the real reason to be because
Luca had a daughter there.
"I was pregnant with that child when I was kidnapped, and I knew that once I gave birth to
that child, they would use that child to control me.
"They had the same thought too, so when I was trying my best not to have the child, they
tried their best to protect the child.
"My child was born full term, and while I was sent away to give birth to the child, they
gave me anesthesia and changed my whole appearance." Luca touched her face. She had
a beautiful face, but it was not the face she wanted.

Shanks changed her facial structure however he liked.
"That's my and Luke's child. I'm out here carrying their so-called mission, but that child is
still on the Island of Despair. I can't ignore the child, so I." The thought of Nyla filled her
eyes with tears.
She thought that once she became stronger, she would be able to protect the people she
wanted to protect.
However, Abel was the devil incarnate. He cruelly reminded her that no matter how strong
she got, she would never be able to protect the people she loved.
It was all because her daughter was in his hands.
No matter how strong and capable Luca became, she would still have to choose between
the two.
If she chose Luke, Nyla would be in danger.
If she chose Nyla, she would have to hurt Luke.
Until now, Luca had always chosen Nyla.
The child came as a complete surprise, so she did not get to live like the three other kids.
Luca felt so sorry for Nyla, so she could only choose Nyla time and time again.
If Queenie had not fallen ill, she would have never admitted it.
Queenie was still in shock when another voice was heard in the ward. “Do we really have
another daughter?"
Luca was stunned. She turned around to look at the door with her blurred vision.
She did not know how long Luke had been standing at the door.
The ward door did not make much noise, and she was so caught up in explaining that she
did not notice Luke pushing the door open and closing it behind him.
She had thought that there were only two people in the ward, but there were actually
three.
Luca stood up slowly and helplessly. "Luke..."
She confessed to Queenie because of her critical condition, and she wanted Queenie to
receive treatment.
It never occurred to her how she was going to confess all of this to Luke.
Now, not only had she told Queenie everything, but Luke had also overheard everything.
"Do we really have a daughter in the hands of the Island of Despair?" Luke had come up
with countless reasons why Luca would be controlled by the Island of Despair, but he had
never thought that this would be the reason why!
Before getting kidnapped, they had agreed that three children were enough, so they
would always use contraceptives every time they had sex.
With odds of one in a million, who knew that Luca would be pregnant with a fourth child?
However, that child had become a tool for the Island of Despair to control Luca, causing
Luca to obey their orders without revealing her identity.
Luke was so shocked that he was stupefied for quite some time before going up to hold
Luca's hand.
When he felt that her hands were ice-cold, his eyebrows were knitted together. He wanted
to hold her in his arms, but Queenie was still there.
Even though he had found out the real reason why Luca had been hiding all of this for so
long, there were still many things to talk about right now.
"I'm sorry I let you face all of this alone," Luke apologized. He was not a good husband,
nor was he a good father.
He did not even know that he had a baby girl who was in someone else's hands. He failed
to protect Luca and their daughter.
All of this was because of his vendetta with the Island of Despair. If he had been more
careful and let his men stay on the Island of Despair for a few more months, the person
behind all of this would have been caught by now.

They would not even have had the chance to return.
If they had not returned, they would not have had the chance to hurt Luca. Their precious
daughter would not have been born in such an environment either.
Neither would she have been taken hostage and detained on the Island of Despair, giving
Luca no choice but to do things she did not want.
Not to mention, they made her like this...
Luke was absolutely heartbroken. He cupped Luca's face and gently wiped away her tears.
"Don't cry. You have me now. I'll save our daughter and make those people regret
everything they've done!"
Luca wanted to hold Luke and tell him everything she had gone through the past few
years, but a little voice in her mind was telling her that now was not the time.
She pulled back from Luke's embrace and said to Queenie, "Mom.."
After being called out to, Queenie sat straight up!
Although she was still quite pale, she was much more energetic than before.
"I.." Luca was confused. She was about to tell Queenie to believe her now that Luke
believed that she was Bianca. After all, she wanted to treat Queenie.
However, Queenie was sitting up straight like a healthy person now, and Luca could not
believe her eyes.
"Bea, I knew you were my Bea the first day I was admitted," said Queenie as she
unplugged the alert button.
"I'm sorry for lying to you, but Luke and I miss you so much. We just want to know
everything you've gone through, which is why we planned this. Bea, come here," Queenie
said while holding her arms out.
With those few words, Luca immediately realized that they had tricked her into telling
them what happened.
Only after she admitted everything could Luke finally take action.
Luca could not bear to blame Queenie, so she walked over to her bedside to hug her.
"Mom, so you're okay?"
