That was an important discovery. The shopping bags on the table were solid proof that Luca's statement did not reflect the reality of the situation. Gale was concerned about Luke's safety. He asked, "Should I continue to investigate this, Boss?" They had been investigating Luca for a long time. However, they had shifted their focus onto Tia recently, and they had not been paying much attention to Luca. Now that something so serious had happened, Gale considered shifting his focus back to Luca because he could not shake off his suspicion toward Luca. "Yes. Split up with Rain. Let her continue to investigate Tia," Luke said. After this incident, Luke could sense that Luca was planning something. More importantly, it was a plan to get closer to him. Gale nodded and said, "We don't know Luca's plan yet, Boss. Why don't you stay away from her for now?" He made the suggestion because he was worried about Luke's safety. However, Luke said, "No. I'll have to play into her pla
Luca smirked as a response to the maid. After the news report ended, the maid said, "What has the world come to? I don't think the security guard expected to lose his life while doing his job. I think the owner of the apartment is unlucky too. Now, no one would want to stay there." Luca felt uneasy as she listened to the maid's words. It was not because she was currently living in that apartment, but because she felt guilty about what happened to the security guard. She was not the one who killed the security guard, but he died because of her. Luca tried to stand up from the couch. The maid immediately went over to support her. "Ms. Craw, do you want to return to your room?" "Mm. I'm feeling a little tired. I want to take a rest," Luca said. The maid brought her back to the bedroom. As Luca lay on the bed, the news report earlier replayed in her head. The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. She picked up her phone and searched for any news regarding t
Luca sighed, picked up her phone, and unlocked it. She felt a tightness in her chest when she saw that news article again. When Luca woke up the next day, she gently wagged her head and found that she did not feel dizzy anymore. Even though Abel had knocked her out, he did not leave her with an internal injury, and she was able to recover quickly. She faced the mirror and began to remove the bandages around her head. The bandages were quite a bother, so she only put a band-aid over the wound. "You're awake, Ms. Craw!" The maid was about to call Luca for breakfast, but when she went into the bedroom, she found that Luca was already awake. Luca nodded as she placed the band-aid on the cotton gauze. "Are you dressing your wound? Do you need any help?" The maid asked. "Don't worry. I've already changed it," Luca carefully ensured that the band-aid was stuck firmly to her forehead. She looked at her face in the mirror and realized that her complexion was terrible. "Are you f
"Why do you want to stay in a hotel? Isn't it better to stay in the apartment? Mr. Crawford has specially made arrangements for you. I can also take care of you while you're recuperating," the maid said after hearing that Luca wanted to move to a hotel. Luke had told the maid to prepare Luca's daily supplements with the ingredients in the kitchen cabinet. Luca smiled and said, "I don't think it's very appropriate. I'm feeling a lot better now, and I don't need anyone to take care of me." The maid smiled and said nothing. If Luca stayed there, the maid would be slightly busier. If she did not, Luke would not blame the maid either. After all, Luke did not have time to care for petty matters. A while later, the police officer came back and said, "Pardon me. Your briefcase has been sent to the forensics department, and the investigation is still ongoing, so I can't return the documents to you yet. We'll call you in two days so that you can pick up the documents." Luca felt a li
Tommy shook his head and said insistently, "You should stay here, Ms. Luca. Daddy said that you can stay here for as long as you want. It's okay." Luke owned many properties, and many people could stay there for as long as they wanted, but she did not want to stay there. Luca could only try to appease the child for now. "By the way, you must be hungry, right? Let's have dinner." Tommy's eyes sparkled when Luca mentioned food, and he forgot that he was halfway convincing Luca. He rubbed his stomach and said, "Yes, Ms. Luca, I'm hungry. What's for dinner tonight?" Luke stood some distance away and watched the exchange between Luca and Tommy. He was a little disappointed that Tommy had forgotten about the important matter. It seemed that Luca knew exactly what Tommy liked. The boy would forget about everything else once someone mentioned food. However, Luke did not reprimand the boy. After all, he was still only a child. Luca was secretly glad that she managed to shift the c
"Mm." Luke shot a glance at her, picked up the stack of plates and cutlery, and went into the kitchen. Luca turned her head to look at Tommy. He was looking at her with a grin on his face. "Ms. Luca, from now on, you can let Daddy do all that," Tommy said. 'From now on?' Luca blinked. Luca hoped that she would have nothing more to do with Luke… "Your Daddy shouldn't be doing household chores," Luca said while patting the child's head. Luke should be sitting in his office, leading his company to greater heights, and stimulating the economy of the entire A City. Tommy shook his head. "Why shouldn't he? He's also a normal person. Everyone should know how to do household chores." Luca had no reply to the little boy's statement. He was correct: Luke was only a normal person, and doing household chores should not be beneath him. However, she did not wish to see his hands stained with grease. Luke was her crush in her younger days, the father of her children, and was once he
Sue became anxious when she heard that Luca had signs of concussion. She said, "The symptoms might be gone, but you can't be too careless. No, you need to rest more. Where are you staying now? I'll come to visit and bring you some supplements." Luca hurriedly said, "Don't worry about it. It's nothing too serious. I'll be back to normal once the wound on my forehead heals. You don't have to waste money on me. Right, Sue, I need to ask you a favor." "What is it?" Sue asked. "There's a cordon around my apartment, and the police have detained all my identification documents. I don't have a single penny with me now, so, um… can you lend me some money?" Luca said. "Money? How much? I'll transfer it to you now," Sue replied without any hesitation. Luca hurriedly explained, "I need cash. I don't have my debit card with me, so I can't take out any money from my account. How about this, I can transfer money to you through my banking app. Can you withdraw the cash for me?" "How much c
Nina could not help but discreetly praise Luca's kindness. She said, "Alright, let's go to the conference first. Then, we'll hand the money to the security guard's family." Luca smiled at her and said, "Thank you." It was about time to leave. Sue and Nina said goodbye to Luca so that she may rest. Luca looked at the supplements on the coffee table, thought for a while, and picked out those that were suitable for middle-aged and old women. She kept away the rest according to their storage instructions. Tomorrow, she would bring the supplements along with the cash to the security guard's house. The next day, Nina arrived at the apartment in her car. When she saw the shopping bag in Luca's hand, she smiled and said, "You're so kind, Dr. Craw." "You gave me too many supplements yesterday. I can't finish everything," Luca explained. Nina did not mind it. She was glad that their supplements could help some other people. After putting the bag in the trunk, they got into the car
