Chapter 2451 Ran Into A Brick Wall

Author: Heap Heap
“Put it on. Be careful.” Luke handed Luca a new safety helmet.

Luca put on the helmet after she thanked Luke.

She could not help but let out a sigh. It had been a long time since Luke did foundation work. However, he was still as attentive as he was before when he got the job.

It was dangerous to walk in the old ancestral hall. There never had been any injuries or accidents caused by the building collapsing, but the place was in ruins. It could collapse anytime.

Luca put on the safety helmet while Brian walked toward them and said respectfully, "Mr. Crawford, is there anything I can help with?"

"What year are you in?" Luke asked. It would be fine if they could help him to carry the tools. If they could not, Luke would rather ask them to leave than stay here and cause trouble for him.

"I'm in my second year. I've learned the basics of how to measure the area. Austin is in his first year," answered Brian. The surname for most of the villagers was Crawford, followed by the surname H

    “I remember that the National University is one of the top five universities in architectural design,” Luca recalled. Then, the expression on her face changed. Only after she finished saying that did she realize what she had said. Luca turned to look at Luke. He was calm, and he was not as surprised as she thought.Normally, a ‘foreigner’ like her should not know so much about the local universities. She thought it was unbelievable when there was no surprised expression on Luke’s face.Brian's face reddened as he was embarrassed to hear Luca complimenting his university. He shook his head and replied, "Even though it's in the top five, the faculty of architecture in our college is incomparable to Mr. Crawford's college. I'm planning to sit for the entrance exam for that college and see if I can take my master's there in my fourth year." Luca withdrew her gaze. She smiled and replied, “Good luck to you.”Brian nodded. Then, he changed the subject of the conversation, "Ms. Cra

    “He’s completed most of the designs, so you wouldn’t be much of a help anyway. Plus, he would need to credit you if you partake in the designing. He wouldn’t be that stupid,” said Austin“I just want to learn. I never expected him to credit me in the first place, so don’t jump to conclusions.” Brian was filled with disgust for him.He left without looking back.Austin watched him leave as he spat on the floor. “What is he putting on an act for? He didn’t even gain anything from pretending to be polite to Luke for the whole day. Serves him right.”He turned to leave after finishing his words as well…Luke drove back to the Crawford Ancestral Home.The Crawford Ancestral Home was still brightly lit up, and when they both walked in, Tommy went over to hold their hands. “Daddy, Ms. Luca, you’re back!”“Yeah, have you eaten?” Luca took off her jacket and hung it before patting his head.Tommy nodded and said, “I’ve eaten. Have Daddy and Ms. Luca ate yet?”“Not yet.” Luke put the

    “Forget it, then. It’ll be hard for them to learn if they don’t have the basic knowledge.” Percy did not expect to hit a wall while practicing with Luke’s children.“Mr. Percy, I understand it,” Lanie tilted his head up and said.Percy blinked and could not believe what he had just heard. “Didn’t you say you haven’t learned it yet?”“I just learned it,” Lanie said frankly.“Mr. Percy, don’t underestimate Lanie. He’s really smart. Rainie’s math is very good too,” Tommy said proudly as he recalled Percy’s words, saying that they could not learn it because the problems were too hard.Rainie put down the pencil and said, “Mr. Percy, I’ve solved it too.”“You too…” Percy looked at Luke.Luke said boastfully, “They’re my children.”“Pfft, let me take a look.” Percy picked up the children’s books and looked at their solutions.Lanie’s solution was relatively straightforward like the one in the textbook, but without prior knowledge of the topic, there was no way he could solve the pro

    He liked Luca’s cooking despite being an adult.Tommy was just a child, so of course, he would like it too.Luca saw how much he liked it, so she picked up a new spoon and scooped some more into his bowl.“That’s enough for me,” said Luke.“These are the leftovers.” Luca considered Luke’s large appetite and made a bigger portion specially for him.A smile appeared on his face while he ate contentedly.After having two small bowls of pasta, she could not finish the rest.Luke made sure that she could not eat anymore before he took the bowl and cleaned it off.Only then did he take a satisfying sip of water from the cup at the side. “This pasta is even better than the meal this afternoon.”“Some of the dishes in the restaurant this afternoon were not bad. We should bring the kids there when we have the chance.” Luca suggested. Brian‘s recommendation was great, but Luke missed out on a number of dishes because of his mysophobia.“Sure,” Luke agreed.He could not miss out on goo

    Luca was filled with disgust after hearing Allison’s words.Luke despised her to this extent, yet words like this could still come out of her mouth.What lover…If she had not been kidnapped, she would still be Luke’s wife.Allison noticed that she did not say anything, so she shouted, “Where’s Luke? Put him on the phone.”“Ms. Tanner, Mr. Crawford is busy right now.” Luca did not mention that Luke was in the shower as that would be too ambiguous.“It’s the holidays. What could he possibly be busy with? Tell him to answer the phone.” Allison was rather aggressive. She might be a little afraid of Luke, but she was not afraid of Luca at all.She reckoned that Luca would want to get on her good side after becoming Luke’s lover.Luca could not do anything with Allison. She knew that she would call non-stop if she hung up, so she had no choice but to say, “Mr. Crawford is really not available right now. I’ll let him know when he’s done and have him call you back, okay?”Allison did

    “Luca…” Luke whispered in her ear, and an enchanting melody circled in the air.Luca felt like she was going to melt from his passion.“Mr. Crawford, I…” Her voice was hoarse, and her mind went blank. She had completely forgotten what she wanted to say, and she could only feel her legs go limp. Then, she and Luke both fell onto the bed.The mattress was soft, so it did not hurt. The surrounding temperature kept rising as Luke’s kiss grew deeper and deeper.Luca gave up struggling and sank in with him…The night grew darker.Some were in love, and some were exasperated.Allison threw her phone onto the sofa and paced back and forth in front of the coffee table.“Ms. Allison, if the call can’t go through, then stop calling. Mr. Crawford may be busy right now,” Sophian advised her kindly after seeing the state she was in.Allison crossed both her arms in front of her, and the wrinkles on her face deepened with anger. It made her look even more terrifying. “He hung up on me for th

    Jason felt a tingling feeling on his scalp when he heard what Allison said.Her commanding tone was the same as before.He did not agree to her request right away but instead asked her, "Ms. Tanner, is there any reason you’re looking for the boss so urgently?"Allison did not want to tell him that someone scammed her out of all of her money. After all, Jason had a decent relationship with Luke. She said with a firm tone, "It's none of your business. It’s something important, so tell him to give me a call now."Jason was not that stupid to ask her why she needed him to relay the message.From what he knew of Luke's temperament, he would not be bothered to talk to Allison if he could block her number.What was more, Allison would never reach out to Luke through him. She would only reach out to him every time she could not get in contact with Luke.Jason glanced at Sue, who was next to him. She rolled over as if their conversation miffed her.He lifted the blanket, got out of bed,

    Luke got out of bed lightly to not wake Luca.However, while he was washing up in the bathroom, Luca opened her eyes when she heard the sound of water.She picked up the phone on the bedside table, glanced at the time, and then put the phone down.It was still early.Luca remembered that she had promised to prepare breakfast for the children, so she immediately sat up.The discomfort came instantly.Even the previous time when Luke was drugged, he seemed to have restrained himself and did not go too far.However, this time, Luke was in a sober state but acted recklessly with her. She could not say no and eventually fell asleep.She did not know when she fell asleep, but when she opened her eyes, the sun had already risen.Luca looked out the window. Although there was a day curtain to block it, the faint sunlight that shone into the room showed that the weather was great.After a few days of snow, they finally got a day of good weather. Luke came out of the bathroom. He ste

    Abel's hand paused for a moment before he continued stroking her eyelids.“What’s wrong?” His voice was eerily low, carrying a chilling edge.Hera could not see his expression, but just the sound of his voice was enough to send shivers down her spine.“Thank you.” Hera forced herself to smile, summoning what little courage she had.“No need for thanks. Just be good from now on.” Abel’s fingers continued their slow, deliberate caress. It was like he was handling a priceless treasure.Hera remained still, letting him touch her without protest. More than anything, she did not dare to speak. She was terrified that if she broke the moment and interrupted whatever was going through his mind, he would be displeased.At that moment, Luca brought the food to the table and asked, “Mr. Abel, Ms. Sanchez, lunch is ready. Would you prefer to eat here or in your room?”“I’ll go with whatever my baby wants.” Hera smiled sweetly, masking her fear behind a bright smile. For some reason, she ha

    “I’m just making plans with a friend. No need to go into all that, right?” As Luca said, she lifted her gaze to meet Shanks.His eyes were as deep as the ocean, and in that split second of eye contact, she felt like she was being pulled in. She suddenly felt like she had just exposed herself.Awkwardly, she cleared her throat and said, “Mr. Shanks, I’ll head downstairs to make lunch.”Shanks did not call her out on it, nor did he press further. He simply returned to his experiment.Downstairs, Luca saw Abel sitting on the living room couch. Ignoring him was not an option.Luca greeted him politely, “Mr. Abel.”Abel took a slow drag from his cigar, his blue eyes scanning her from head to toe. He was deep in thought.He remained silent, seemingly deep in thought. His dark and brooding expression sent a chill down Luca’s spine. Without saying a word, she turned around and walked straight into the kitchen.Gerald was already inside.When he saw her, he mouthed, “You’re here?”Luc

    If Shanks’ prescription could help Hera sleep earlier, that would not be a bad thing.“Then I need to be treat…” Hera paused for a moment, realizing she could not say the word treatment. That would imply she was sick, and she could not let people know that. Instead, she corrected herself and asked, “How long will I need to take this herbal medicine?”“You can stop when your test results are back to normal,” replied Luca as she picked up the medical waste and headed out of the room.Gerald followed closely behind and asked with curiosity, “Ms. Craw, how long is that?”“How long is a standard treatment cycle?” Luca asked in return.Gerald pondered for a moment. “Usually about a month?”“The average endocrine cycle for women is three months, so the minimum duration for proper regulation is three months,” explained Luca.Although Abel could take action at any time, there was no way Hera could endure three full months of treatment. However, until Abel made his move, she would have

    Luca’s head was slightly tilted, her cheek burning with pain.Abel had not held back at all. The force of his slap was merciless. A numbness spread across her face at an alarming speed.From the next room, someone peeked out again and asked in a low voice, “You okay?”“I’m fine.” Luca’s expression remained calm. This kind of injury was nothing to her.Back on the Island of Despair, she had endured far worse during training. She survived, did she not?Without another word, Luca pushed open the lab door and stepped inside.The man watching shook his head. Her face was already that swollen, and she still said she was fine… What a tough woman. She took a slap that hard and brushed it off like it was nothing.Shanks lifted his head when he heard the door open. When he saw it was Luca and noticed how swollen the side of her face was, his brows furrowed.“Abel did this?”“Who else?” Luca let out a bitter laugh, only to wince as the movement tugged at the pain. She sucked in a sharp b

    “No.” Shanks’ tone was cold and firm with no trace of hesitation.Abel still looked doubtful.Shanks added, “Would you like to see her medical report?”Abel was startled for a moment. How did Shanks know he had been thinking about that report?Now that Shanks brought it up, the idea lost its appeal.Abel shook his head. “Even if you showed it to me, I wouldn’t understand it. Shanks, Kassy’s life is in your hands. If you can give her a second chance, I’ll provide as much research funding as you need."Shanks remained silent. He could save Kassy. In fact, his research had always been for Kassy.However, he did not expect Abel to be so ruthless as to insist on using a living person as a donor for Kassy. That was something he could not accept.Kassy’s condition could be treated with organs from a brain-dead patient. Why destroy a perfectly healthy life?Shanks was not acting out of mercy. He simply refused to go against his medical ethics.He was not someone who had to save lives

    “You don’t need to remind me. I was going to check anyway.” Abel shot Luca a chilling look.She took a step back and stayed silent.Abel turned to the pale-faced Hera and said, “If you’ve got low blood sugar, get up and eat something.”“I’ll eat now,” Hera replied, sitting up.Luca handed her the takeout.Abel glanced at the food and then frowned at Luca. “Why didn’t you make breakfast this morning?”“I was busy,” Luca explained with a calm indifference, her expression unwavering. She showed no fear, even under Abel’s questioning.Hera suddenly found herself admiring Luca. Everyone feared this man, yet Luca remained composed even when facing potential punishment. Not just anyone could pull that off.At the thought of this, Hera opened the takeout and kept quiet.Abel narrowed his eyes, glancing between Hera and Luca. His gaze was not exactly gentle as he muttered, “Stop eating this junk. It’s bad for you.”“I know, babe. Just this once. After this, I’ll have what Luca cooks f

    Hera panicked the moment she heard that. “I trust her!”Luca and Shanks were both watching her.Hera repeated herself, saying, “I trust her, okay? What kind of treatment does she need? I’ll cooperate with anything. But what about Abel…”“I’ll tell him it’s just to help improve your overall health,” replied Shanks. Then, he turned around, opened the medicine cabinet, and started preparing the prescription.Hera let out a sigh of relief. As long as Abel did not find out about her health condition, that was all that mattered.If he knew she was unwell, he would send her back to A City. Without free medical help and no way to make extra money, she would be in serious trouble.“Thank you,” said Hera.“Wait outside,” instructed Shanks.“Okay.” Hera carefully stepped out.Luca, however, remained where she was, waiting.While preparing the medicine, Shanks asked, “Do you know which acupoints to target for her?”“Yes,” Luca replied confidently. As long as she checked Hera’s pulse, sh

    “There are a lot of issues.” Luca did not hide anything and handed Hera the phone.Hera looked at it and frowned.“I can't understand any of this.” Hera felt dizzy just looking at the text, let alone the long list of medical terms. It was giving her a headache.“Look at these summaries and indicators. Compare the values on top with the normal values at the bottom, and you'll see what I mean,” explained Luca.Hera did not trust her. Therefore, Luca decided to let her see for herself. Seeing it with her own eyes would prevent any doubts later.Luca pointed out how to read the test results, and after a moment, Hera managed to understand the report. Her face turned pale. “How can there be so many problems?”She looked at Luca and questioned, “Did you fake this?”“I don’t have the power to make the medical center fake anything. Besides, the report has the medical center’s official stamp. If you don’t believe me, you can go directly to the medical center and ask for the official cop

    “I heard from the boss that he's coming because of Vivian.” Gale paused for a moment before adding, “But never mind, you don't seem interested in her affairs anyway. I'm just letting you know he's on his way.”Gordan frowned. Ray was coming for Vivian?What could that ugly woman possibly need?“What do you mean by that?” asked Gordan.Gale smirked. “If you and Ray meet, that’s bound to end in a fight. And since you can't win against him, you might want to mentally prepare yourself, or better yet, find somewhere else to stay. It’d be safer that way.”Gordan's expression darkened. “If you have nothing nice to say, just zip it.”Gale grinned, clearly pleased with himself like he had just hit a sore spot.Gordan exhaled sharply. “Of all times, why is he coming to A City now? He’s just making things worse.”“It can't be helped. Vivian's situation is urgent.” Gale covered his mouth mockingly after he said that. “Oh, right.
