Chapter 1156 Tricked by Luke and Tommy
However, when Luke heard Tommy''s suggestion, he was suddenly interested in trying Luca''s cooking.
He looked at Luca and asked her, "Would it trouble you?"
Luca was about to say that it would trouble her very much, but Tommy spoke before she could. "Ms.
Luca says that it''s okay as long as you agree."
Luca was speechless.
The child was always faster than her.
"Alright, sorry to impose on you then," Luke said.
She felt as though the two were ganging up on her.
Cooking was not something hard for her, especially after Tommy stayed over in her house. She had
regained her confidence in her cooking skills.
However, she hoped that Tommy and Luke would note into contact with the other people from the
Ind of Despair.
She was afraid that Amur might give away something if he knew who Luke was, even though Amur
might be worried about her.
She did not want to put N in danger just to satisfy her selfish needs.
"Yay!" Tommy pped his hands and cheered.
"I have something to tell you, Mr. Crawford." There was only one excuse left to keep them out of her
house.
"Speak." Luke gazed at her. She did not know what Luke was thinking.
"My stove is broken, and I haven''t found someone to fix it yet, so I can''t cook," Luca said while
kneading her hands. It was not very convincing, but it was a reason nheless.
If her stove was broken, he could not force her to cook.
Luke was about to say something when Tommy spoke first. "Huh? What brand is it, Ms. Luca? Why did
it break so easily?"
Luca felt a little embarrassed, as though Luke and Tommy had seen through her lies. However, she
could only tell more lies to cover up her previous one. "The stove belongs to myndlord. It might have
broken because the previous tenant abused it."
Tommy nodded. He could think of many solutions just so that he could eat Luca''s cooking. "Don''t worry,
Ms. Luca, you cane to my home and cook." "Huh?" Luca did not expect Tommy to think of that.
She shook her head and said, "That''s not very convenient, isn''t it? Don''t you have a cook at home?"
"We don''t have a cook at my house," Luke said. Crawford Manor had a cook, but his house did not.
Luca was taken aback. ''My house?
''Is it the one I''m thinking of?'' "Yay, this is great! You cane to my house and cook, Ms. Luca."
Tommy pped his hands, happy that his father was helping him.
Luca knew that she had run out of excuses. She would not be able to leave if she did not make dinner
for Luke and Tommy. She could only nod and agree.
Luke nodded. "Pack up. We''ll be leaving soon."
That line was spoken to both Tommy and Luca.
Tommy went to the couch and put the book in his backpack while Luca tidied up her desk and ced
her research notes in the safe.
Every office was equipped with a safe so that no one else could steal the proprietary information. If any
outsiders got their hands on the projects, thepany would suffer huge losses.
Luca took off herb coat and put on her jacket, wore her cap, and left with Luke and Tommy.
The three people walked toward the elevator. It was only the second day of operations, so many people
had not started on their projects. Moreover, it was already way past office hours, so there was no one
else in the Technical Department.
The elevator doors opened, and the three people went in.
Tommy stole a nce at Luke, then turned his head to look at Luca. He giggled when he thought that
they looked like a family of three.
Most importantly, Tommy did not seem to mind it at all.
He had never liked any woman that tried to suck up to Luke.

As the elevator doors slowly closed, Luca felt that the atmosphere was quite awkward. "What would
you like to eat, Mr. Crawford?" She asked.
"I''ll eat anything that you cook," Luke said.
Luca''s heart skipped a beat. The answer was quite perfunctory, but she was somehow moved.
''What''s going on with me...'' "Mm, alright." She nodded. She lowered her head and looked at Tommy,"
How about you, Tommy? What would you like to eat?"
Til eat anything that you cook, Ms. Luca." Tommy did not specify any particr dish either.
Luca thought that it was very troublesome to cook for Luke and Tommy.
She knew all their favorite dishes, but she could not cook only those.
Otherwise, they might suspect that she was trying to suck up to them.
Luca decided that she would decide what to cook after going to the supermarket.
"Can you make some more food, Ms. Luca?" Tommy said.
"Oh? Why?" Luca did not understand.
"Daddy is a big eater, so you should make more food. He won''t be able to sleep on an empty stomach.
The doctor says that you''ll get a headache if you don''t sleep well." Tommy tried to find an excuse for
his greed.
''Didn''t he say that he was sick?''
The elevator arrived at the basement parking lot. Luke went to bring the car while Luca and Tommy
waited in the lobby.
Tommy held Luca''s hand tightly in case she tried to escape.
"Ms. Luca," he called out.
"Hm?" Luca lowered her head to look at the child.
"You don''t have to worry, Ms. Luca. Daddy and I aren''t picky eaters. He''s used to eating good food, but
he''s really not picky. Last time, my Mommy wanted to cook something for him, but she made a charred
omelet. We didn''t eat it, but Daddy ate the entire thing. He''ll definitely love the food you cook for him."
Luca patted her son''s head. She knew that he did not want her to be too anxious.
However, her heart wrenched when she heard that Luke was so tolerant of the impostor Bianca. She
even felt pity for him.
"That''s because your Daddy loves your Mommy," she said.
"No, he''s not picky." Tommy was stubborn.
"Alright, he''s not picky then. Why did you tell that to me though?" Luca smiled and said.
"That''s because your hands are mmy. Uncle Johann said that you have mmy hands when you''re
feeling uneasy. Are you feeling uneasy now, Ms. Luca?" Tommy asked. As far as he remembered,
Luca''s hands were always warm.
"Yes. Your Daddy is my boss, you know," Luca said with a smile.
There were many reasons that her hands were mmy, but the biggest reason was Luke.
"Don''t worry, Ms. Luca. If Daddy wants to fire you because of your cooking, I''ll run away from home
again!" Tommy said while thumping his chest. He was ready to protect her.
