The cup of tea placed in front of Luke smelled good. Luke knew the churning alcohol smell in his stomach would

stop once he drank it.

However, he was not in a hurry. Instead, he patted the seat beside him and said, “Take a seat."

Luca noticed that Luke had something to tell her. Hence, she sat down on another sofa. It was late at night. Nina

and the kids were already in bed, and it was quiet. However, she still kept a suitable distance away from Luke.

Luke did not force her to sit beside him. Her nerves would be on edge as long as Nina was still around.

"Matysh found a woman to accompany him. And that woman has a pair of eyes that look like yours," said Luke.

Luca looked down, feeling helpless.

It was not a good thing. That would only show how much Matysh desired and wanted Luca. She replied in a soft

voice, "Okay."

"If something happens to you, don't hide it from me. You have to tell me. Although he's not a local, he approached

a criminal organization for help. That's why it's not easy to deal with him," Luke reminded her with a solemn look on

his face.

If he had been more careful and determined back then, Luca would not have ended up in this situation today.

Therefore, Luke could not bear the pain of losing her again.

Luke's voice was stern and serious as he was trying to let her know how serious the matter was.

Luca nodded and replied, "Don't worry. I'm not a child. I know I can't solve this all by myself. I'll never hide anything

from you."

Luke let out a sigh of relief. He was unable to take the weight off his mind whenever it was something related to

Luca. Fortunately, Luca had given him her word.

The tension in his heart was relieved a little.

Luca shot a glance at the cup of tea that had almost cooled down and reminded him in a soft voice, "Mr. Crawford,

drink the tea while it's still warm. It won't be that effective once it gets cold."

Luke picked up the cup of tea and gulped it down.

The warmth of the tea flowed into his stomach, warming up his heart too. Although it did not produce an immediate

effect, Luke felt much better.

After Luke finished drinking the tea, he placed the cup on the coffee table and glanced at the time. It was getting

late.

"Let's go upstairs, clean ourselves up, and get some rest. Aunt Neile will clean up tomorrow," said Luke.

“Okay," Luca nodded. The two of them made their way up the stairs.

It was quiet on the second floor. Nina and the kids had fallen asleep. They tiptoed their way to the bedroom when

they reached the second floor.

Although Luke had moved some of his toiletries to Luca's bedroom this morning, his clothes were still in his room.

Hence, he did not follow Luca back to her bedroom and returned to his bedroom first.

Luca walked into her bedroom. She turned on the lights and unconsciously looked at the bed, only to realize that

Aunt Neile had changed Luke's pillowcase so that it was the same as hers when she cleaned up her room today.

The pillow's color no longer looked odd in her room. It was as though it was supposed to be in her bedroom.

Luca's face was slightly burning.

That would only mean Aunt Neile had already found out about them...

Luca closed the door. She was not worried that Aunt Neile would report it to Old Master Crawford. After all, Old

Master Crawford had been using different methods such as giving her herbal tea and tonic to fix her up with Luke.

If Old Master Crawford found out about it, he would not be mad. He would be happy to hear it.

However.

Luca looked at the color of the pillowcases which were the same as her bed sheet. She wondered how much Old

Master Crawford knew about her and Luke.

Why would he agree and why would he even have the thought of bringing her and Luke together?

The old master had always kept an upright outlook on life, and family values were very important to him. He would

never allow the younger generation to fool around with others after getting married. Although he adored Luke, his

perspective on such matters was the same.

That was why Luca was unable to figure it out.

She took out a set of pajamas from her closet and walked into the bathroom.

Luca was planning to wash her hair today. She remained in the bathroom for a while after taking a shower. After

she dried her hair and did a hair treatment, she walked out of the bathroom.

Then, she realized that Luke was already sitting on her bed, reading the book he was reading yesterday.

Luca knew Luke would sit there and sleep with her regardless of how hard she tried to get him out of the bedroom.

Thus, she did not say anything. She secretly prayed that Nina would not find out about them tomorrow. Luca did not

get onto the bed. Instead, she sat on the dressing chair and began to slowly apply her skincare products on her

face. The weather was cold, and the air was dry. If she did not apply skincare on her face, her skin would not be

able to stand the dryness in the air.

Previously, when she was on the Island of Despair, the skincare she applied was made by Shanks.

Even though she knew the recipe, she hardly had any time to make it herself after getting out of the island. That

was why she could only buy some skincare products for herself.

Of course, the ones she bought outside were not as good as the ones she made.

Luca took her time, and Luke did not rush her either. He turned the pages while waiting for her.

No matter how slowly her skin absorbed the skincare, her skin would eventually absorb it completely. Luca had no

choice but to stand up and walk to the other side of the bed. She lifted the blanket and said, "Mr. Crawford, I'm

going to sleep first."

"Don't you find it strange?" Luke closed his book. After he watched her lay down on the bed, he leaned over on the

bed and said in a low voice.

"What?" Luca was surprised, and she could not understand what he meant at that moment.

Luke toyed with her hair. She had just washed it. Her hair was much smoother than it was this morning. Her hair

would fall straight when he coiled her hair with his fingers.

It was just like her.

He was lying right next to her now, but it was as though he did not truly have her. He even had this feeling that she

was uncatchable.

"There's only the two of us in this bedroom, but the way you're calling me makes me feel like we're in the office,"

Luke's deep voice carried a hint of huskiness. His fingers continued to toy with her hair.

Luca felt a numb feeling going down her spine. What Luke said forced her to open her eyes and look at the man in

front of him.

"Mr. Crawford." Her voice sounded a little hoarse too.

"We're not in the office or the company. There's no one else here," Luke complained with dissatisfaction as he ran

his fingers through her hair. He combed her hair for her.

Luca fell silent. What else could she address him other than Mr. Crawford?

Besides, did she have the privilege to do so?

Luke replied with patience, "Call my name.."

"L-Luke," Luca paused for a moment and called his name.

Luke was still unhappy with it. The way she called him sounded distant, but it sounded much better than Mr.

Crawford.

Luke knew he should not be in a hurry. He had to slowly guide her and let her get used to it. Therefore, he nodded

and said, "That sounds much better. Keep in mind that you're not allowed to address me as Mr. Crawford when

there's no one else. Otherwise..."

There was a hint of affection in his voice in the last few words he uttered, and he also gave her a warning.

Luca had heard this tone before. She was still Bianca back then.

If she refused to listen to him, he would make it difficult for her to get out of bed the next day.

Luca's face reddened when she recalled the intimacy they shared back then. She leaned over to the other side,

turned her back to him, and said, "It's late. Let's call it a night. Good night."
