Talia felt unhappy when she remembered the scene where Luca stepped into the CEO's car. She thought that she was quite beautiful, and she was younger than Luca, so why did Luca manage to seduce Luke, while she had to settle for someone like Cole? Talia glanced at Cole, who was driving, and said emotionally, "I didn't expect that the rumors were true. I pity Mrs. Crawford now." Cole would hear a hint of pretentiousness in her words. "It'll serve you well to leave them alone." "Ah, I'm just saying." Talia could sense his unhappiness and realized that she had misspoken. She thought that she was the same as Luca. Both of them have sold their bodies in exchange for their jobs. Luke was married, and so was Cole. When Talia approached Cole, she promised him that she would not interfere with his family life. That was why Cole was willing to give Talia a chance. Talia's words earlier reminded Cole that he was having an affair too. She smiled apologetically and hoped that he wo
"Not bad," Luca said after being stunned for a few seconds. She was not planning to be romantically involved with anyone in the office anyway. The new rule would not affect her. When Luke heard her nonchalant response, he stepped on the gas pedal harder. Luca could feel the car travel faster, but she did not gasp or exclaim in surprise. She sat there calmly, as though she was used to traveling at this speed. The car was traveling on the open road, and traffic was very light. Luca was not worried that Luke might rear-end another car, so she managed to keep calm. She knew that Luke was a skilled driver. Luke stopped his car outside Luca's neighborhood. After the car came to a complete stop, Luca unfastened her seatbelt and said to him, "You're a skilled driver, Mr. Crawford." She opened the door and stepped out of the car. Luke raised an eyebrow and asked, "Aren't you inviting me to go upstairs?" Luca was taken aback, not expecting Luke to say that. When she came to h
Meanwhile, as Luke drove away, he could not help but feel unhappy when he remembered Amur's face. He took out his phone and gave Jason a call. "Send me Luca's dossier," he said. Jason was taken aback. "Haven't you already seen it before?" "I want to look at it again," Luke said. "Yes." Jason did not know why his boss would suddenly want to do that. However, he was in no position to question his boss's decisions. After the call ended, he immediately turned on his laptop to find Luca's dossier. It took him some time to find Luca's folder from the numerous employee folders and send it to Luke's mailbox. Kari was sitting next to him, watching him work. She ran into the kitchen and said, "Mommy, Daddy isn't helping us turn on the TV." "Isn't he sitting on the couch? Why isn't he helping you?" Sue was busy in the kitchen cooking dinner. She turned around to glance at her daughter before resuming slicing vegetables. "Daddy is very busy." Kari pouted. When Sue heard that, she
After Luke parked his car in the Crawford Manor, he did not get out of his car. Instead, he opened his mailbox and read through Luca's dossier several times. There was not a lot of useful information on Luca, perhaps because she was from Russia. Luke sank into deep thought. He heard a knock on the car window. He came to his senses and saw the butler standing next to the car with a gentle smile on his face. Luke rolled down the car window. "Sir, Old Master Crawford wants to know why you're not going into the house," the butler said. Old Master Crawford was deliberately waiting for him in the living room, but Luke did not go into the house. "I'm still doing a bit of work. I'll go in soon," Luke said. "Yes, Sir." The butler nodded and went away. Luke took out his phone and gave Gale a call. "Any orders, Boss?" Gale answered the call very quickly. He sounded quite carefree. "Go to Russia, and bring Rain with you. I want to investigate on someone," Luke said. Rain and Ga
"Yeah." Luke looked at Bianca. The light from the dressing table illuminated her side profile. She looked delicate and flawless.However, no matter how he looked at her, he was not spellbound by her as he used to be. He did not believe that time could change his love for Bianca, but it was true that he was no longer infatuated with her."What's the matter with you? Why do you look so serious?" Bianca narrowed her eyebrows and observed his expression.Luke's expressionless face did not carry a tinge of warmth, and it made her feel uneasy."It’s nothing to worry about." His expression was still cold and indifferent.Bianca stood up and tried to approach him when she suddenly heard him ask, "Why did you go to Watson Biopharmaceuticals today?""You found out..." Bianca lowered her eyes slightly to show an aggrieved expression. She knew Luke would find out since she had paid off Mo.Her goal was achieved. Luke was aware that she went to Watson Biopharmaceuticals to look for Luca.
"Norman Residence?" Bianca felt bitter when she thought of Jack's face.Jack always had a stern face that was a little too serious whenever they were in the same room. His majestic gaze seems to be able to see through everything.There was also Queenie, who was so fragile. Every time Bianca went to the Norman Residence, she had to do all kinds of housework for Queenie to maintain the image of a good daughter.Bianca hated all of this."Mm." Luke noticed her resistance and did not choose to accommodate her this time.Bianca looked at the calmness on his face and felt slightly disappointed that he did not show any empathy toward her.Luke was not saying anything to help her out of this, which meant that she had to go.Bianca was not happy about it but dared not express it. Too many things had happened recently. If it were in the past, she could turn him down, but in the situation that she was in now, she could no longer take any risks that would cause Luke to dislike her even more
Jack knew what Old Master Crawford's intentions were by giving him the kolinsky sable paintbrushes at this timing. He nodded and accepted the gift. "Please thank Old Master Crawford for me. When Queenie feels better, our families should have a meal together.""Sounds good," Luke nodded.Old Master Crawford knew that Jack would do better than ever after he returned to politics, so T Corporation would be riding on his wave then.The caretaker walked over with a bowl of herbal concoction and said softly, "Madam, the concoction is ready."Queenie smiled and picked up the bowl. She chose to gulp it all down in one sitting instead of drinking it sip by sip because the concoction was bitter. After she finished it, she frowned slightly as she could still taste the bitterness of the concoction in her mouth.The nanny handed her a piece of candy and said, "Madam, you’ll feel better if you eat something sweet."Queenie shook her head to turn her down.Luke asked, "Mother-in-law, how do y
"Visit Leia?" Bianca frowned and thought of Leia.She had never been in contact with Leia but she learned a lot about her from documents. She felt neutral toward her so-called sister.‘She’s still thinking about Leia? Is she stupid?’Bianca looked down on Queenie’s benevolence, but on the surface, she smiled slightly and said, "Mom, let’s have Dad decide on this matter."Based on what she read on the documents, Jack was the one who sent Leia abroad.At that time, Leia refused to leave A City and made a big fuss before she was sent abroad. Since she left, Leia had been trying to figure out a way to come back.Jack and Luke were getting in the way of it, so Leia never had a chance to return.Bianca was surprised to hear that Leia found a partner abroad and wanted Queenie to visit.It seemed to her that the engagement was fake and just a part of Leia’s plot.When she heard Bianca’s reply, Queenie sighed and said in a melancholic tone, "Your father is still angry… I can't persuade
