Luca sighed when she heard what Uncle Zander said. She was not a qualified mother. The children’s affection and their thought of longing to see Luca again would only end up in vain.Uncle Zander noticed that Luke and Luca were not talking to each other, so he added, "Young Master Blanche, Young Master Tommy, and Ms. Rainie have been behaving themselves. When they talk to Old Master Crawford, they’d always ask about Young Master Luke’s recovery and when the two of you were returning.”Luca’s heart was filled with bitterness while listening to Uncle Zander’s chatters. She could only conceal her feelings and smile as she went along with Uncle Zander, saying, “They probably miss Mr. Crawford more.”Luke raised his brows. She had no idea that the kids had already found out about her true identity, and that was why she would say something like this. Luca did not know that if the kids were to choose between him and Luca, they would always be on her side, not his.Luke and Luca got out
“Alright, Mr. Crawford.” Aunt Neile left the tea room.Percy was dissatisfied and protested. “I’m so exhausted after the long trip. And you’re giving me a cup of coffee? What a heartless man!” "It was Pierre who caused the trouble. You deserved it." Luke's words hit a nerve in Percy relentlessly. When Pierre was arrogant and domineering back then, Percy had no intention of stopping him. Instead, he spoiled him and let Pierre do whatever he wanted to.The Mallory family doted on him, and that was why Pierre behaved like that. He got into trouble everywhere he went, yet he showed no remorse or guilt for what he did. Percy would have to take up the responsibility of spoiling Pierre. He had to clean up the mess Pierre had made. The only difference was that Percy used to deal with the troubles that Pierre had gotten himself into. Now, Percy was the one sorting him out.Percy quickly waved his hand. Fortunately, Luke was his best friend. Otherwise, this matter would not have been so
Something came across Percy’s mind. Then he said, “Speaking of this, regarding the matter that you instructed Adrian to investigate, he looked up and found out that the IP address is located in this city. If Dr. Craw was the one who tipped you off, then who sent the email?” said Percy. Was she not afraid that she would get caught by asking someone to tip Luke off? “She has a nominal brother here,” Luke reminded him while he made some tea.Percy patted the table. He hardly remembered Luca's brother. If it had not been for Luke reminding him about his existence, Percy would have forgotten him.“If that’s what her brother did, then her brother must be a computer geek. He’s probably better than Adrian.” Percy could not help but exclaim. After all, if it was really Amur who did it, they had already gone up against each other a few times. However, Adrian could only find out that his IP address was located in this city. He could not go into further details. It was only because the other
Aunt Neile dared not to disturb them as they were discussing matters inside the tea room. She could not make the decision, and that was why she came to ask Luca.Luca glanced at the time, then she glanced at the tea room with the door closed. She said, “Just prepare his portion. There’s nothing wrong with preparing more.” Although Percy was Luke’s friend, it did not matter if they prepared lunch for him or not.However, this was basic courtesy. By preparing more, it might lead to more food wastage, but it would be impolite and drive the guests away if they did not prepare anything for him.“I think so too, but Mr. Mallory’s preferences…” Aunt Neile was afraid that the dishes she prepared would not suit Pierre’s taste. Luca said, “Prepare some home-cooked dishes. I remember that Mr. Mallory loves home-cooked dishes.” "How do you know that?" Aunt Neile asked with curiosity. It was Percy's first time staying here until lunchtime if she remembered it clearly. Luca was dumbfound
“Yes, Nina is my fiancée now,” Percy admitted. As Nina’s best friend, Luca wanted Nina to be happy. Although the Mallory family was still against it, Percy insisted on holding an engagement ceremony. It was a simple ceremony, but he did it with all his sincerity and wholeheartedly.Percy believed that he could give Nina a happy and blissful life.Luca turned to look at Luke. Was this true? How did that happen out of the blue?“He went to look for the priest on the second day we went to Russia. He grabbed Nina with him and got the engagement ceremony done,” Luke told her.“Yes. We were low-profile. I only informed my family and a few close friends about this. But we didn’t invite anyone to our engagement ceremony. That’s why Nina didn’t tell anyone either,” said Percy. Percy was worried that someone would mess up the engagement ceremony. He kept a low profile before the engagement ceremony. Only after the ceremony was over did he inform his family and Luke.Nina was worried tha
“It’s snowing again.” Luca let out a sigh. She was unconsciously hiding the fact that she was seeing Luke off from Aunt Neile."Yes. I remember that it's your first time spending the winter here, right? Although it's not as cold as it is in Russia, it'll snow every day after winter comes," replied Aunt Neile.Luca nodded. Before she walked away from the window, she said, “Aunt Neile, I’m going upstairs to get some rest.”“Alright, Ms. Craw. Take care,” Aunt Neile replied happily. Luca made her way up the stairs. She did not rest as she had slept for more than ten hours on the plane. She was full of energy.Luca returned to her bedroom and picked up her phone. She sent a message to Amur and told him that she had come back from Russia. Amur did not reply to her. Luca was not in a hurry to give him a call either. She thought of finding a chance to visit him.When she was in Russia, she did not follow up with the experiments going on in the lab. Luca called Rhett at the thought
After all, Old Master Crawford did not know that Luca’s true identity was Bianca.Despite her having given birth to three children for the Crawford family, if she did anything to harm the Crawford family or something that would affect the interests of T Corporation, Old Master Crawford would never forgive her if he found out about her real identity.Old Master Crawford required his granddaughter-in-law to be an obedient woman. Even though Luca was forced to do these things, the old master’s mind was old-fashioned. Luca might leave a bad impression on him. Luke chose not to tell the old master to protect Luca. Besides, only Percy and Jason knew about this. They would never tell anyone about it.Pierre would not have known that it was Luca who stole the bidding document. Otherwise, he would have come looking for Luca when the matter came to light. He would tell Luca everything he knew and threaten her to make her listen to him.They were all in Russia at the same time. Gale and R
“Did Jason tell you? Or was Mr. Zac?” Luke had already narrowed it down. The others hardly had the chance to talk to Old Master Crawford. “Fine. Mr. Zac was the one who told me. I forced him to,” Old Master Crawford admitted helplessly. He was worried that Luke would look for Mr. Zac, he even emphasized that he was the one who forced Mr. Zac to spill the beans. Luke remained silent. He knew it.“I’m just concerned about you, alright? Look at you, raising three kids all by yourself. Although we have maids in the house and you have me helping you to take care of the kids, the kids can’t grow up properly without a mother’s love. I can tell the kids like Luca a lot. And I wonder when will both of you take another step further. Then I won’t have to worry that much,” Old Master Crawford mumbled. He had put in a lot of effort for the sake of Luke’s happiness.However, he did not expect Luke, who was so capable and smart during work, to be so stubborn when it came to relationships. Luk
