Chapter 825 Detained Separately

Lucia stared at Dan blankly, not understanding what he meant.

"I'll take you and Esmae to the bottom of the cabin later. If you don't want to annoy Spencer again, you'd better not resist." Dan didn't feel uncomfortable under Lucia's gaze, but still said indifferently.

"Why..." Lucia asked angrily when Dan stood up slowly.

She was physically and mentally exhausted, but her sensitivity hadn't faded. With Dan's style of acting, he wouldn't "kindly" persuade her.

Dan's answer was in his heart, not in his mouth.

Reaching out to grab Lucia's arm and lift it up, Dan easily lifted the weak woman up, saying,

"Eat or not, or go."

"I won't eat." Lucia said coldly.

Dan frowned slightly, but quickly returned to his original state. He roughly clamped Lucia's arm and dragged her out. The moment of softening just now seemed to be just an illusion.

Being dragged all the way to the bilge by Dan, Lucia was extremely disappointed, because she didn't see her daughter on the way. She saw Esmae who had been brought in first when she came to the dark bilge.

"Lucia, how did you make it like this..." Esmae whispered distressedly after seeing Lucia with a little light.

At this time, Lucia's long hair was not messy, but it had lost the dazzling luster of the past. Her face was pale, and the only thing that was stained with red was not her cheeks, nor her lips, but her eyes. There was no light in them, and when she looked closely, she can still see the tear stains in the corners of her eyes.

Lucia barely bent the corners of her lips, but found that her muscles were terribly stiff, as if she was used to the sad look.

It was good that Lucia didn't force her smile, but when she saw the corners of her lips hooked, Esmae felt even more uncomfortable, and her eyes turned red after a while.

Dan also handcuffed Lucia to a pipe in the bilge, keeping her at a close distance from Esmae. After seeing Lucia slump on the ground, he went out. And the bilge became much darker.

"Lucia, don't worry. Spencer doesn't dare to do anything with the baby. Your uncle has already started negotiating with him." Esmae comforted Lucia.

Lucia was silent for a while, and it seemed that it took a lot of effort to utter an "um" sound.

Lucia, who had always been optimistic and positive, became so depressed. Esmae was very anxious but could do nothing. She could understand her feeling. Without the child by her side, no amount of comfort could have the slightest effect.

Just when Esmae was anxious, there was a low moan from the innermost corner, followed by the sound of handcuffs hitting the steel pipe.

Lucia's expression finally changed a little. She and Esmae looked towards the corner where the sound came from, and it took a long time before she realized.

"Casper?"

"Lucia? Is that you?" A weak hoarse voice called out. It was Casper.

Lucia raised her eyebrows. Had Casper been locked up here all this time? Why did his voice sound so weak?

"Lucia, who is that person?" Esmae turned to Lucia in doubt.

Lucia told Esmae of Casper's identity, and Esmae frowned tightly after hearing this. It turned out that this person was Casper. Just like everyone else thought, Casper's seemingly brave behavior had actually caused very bad consequences, so after she heard Lucia's words, she stopped talking. She was afraid that she could not help but blame this reckless person once she opened her mouth.

"How can you be sure?" Lucia asked Casper.

"Spencer is mercenary. Now his biggest trump card is the child, and she is the easiest to control. Even if you escape, Ms. Wilson escapes, or even me, he will not easily give up the child as a pawn, so, he won't hurt her," Casper analyzed.

Lucia pondered for a moment, and suddenly realized that what Casper said was indeed reasonable.

However, a trace of doubt also rose in Lucia's heart. Casper's words revealed an understanding of Spencer.

But Lucia will not raise this question at this time. Everything will be discussed after being rescued.

Seeing Casper's words really played a role in comforting Lucia, Esmae's hostility towards him was not so deep, and she also comforted him,

"Wait for Arthur and the others to rescue you, too."

"I hope." Casper replied lightly, and then turned silent.

After the discussions in the middle of the night, Arthur and his team worked out a new plan, and with the news that Erik and Elliot were coming here, Arthur regained some confidence, and was "escorted" by Otis at dawn to his room.

"Otis, I'm really not tired." Arthur said helplessly, looking at Otis who was blocking the door of his cabin.

"If you can't sleep, you have to lie down," Otis frowned and stared at Arthur, and said sternly,

"We can only wait before dark, so you can take a rest."
