While Luca prepared the dining table, she noticed that Luke was checking Tommy’s homework.
Instinctively, she took care not to make too much excessive noise.
Tommy was sprawled on Luke’s back, looking at his father going through his homework.
Luke found a small mistake on thest page, and he got Tommy to correct it. After Tommy did so, he
signed on thest page of the workbook.
He looked up and noticed Luca was looking at them.
He wondered if she had been watching them. The gaze in her eyes was gentle and elegant.
Luca felt the atmosphere be tense when their gazes met. She quickly turned away, ced the
dishes on the dining table, cleared her throat, and said, “Dinner is ready.”
“You’re the best, Ms. Luca! I’m so hungry!” Tommy cheered and pped his hands excitedly. He stood
up and went to wash his hands.
Luca watched the boy enter the bathroom, then turned to look at Luke. Luke was still looking at her.
“Mr. Crawford, would you like to have some soup before dinner?” Luca asked while cing the cutlery.
“Soup sounds good,” Luke said as he walked toward the dining table.
“Mm, I’ll get you a bowl,” Luca hurriedly walked into the kitchen.
Luke narrowed her gaze when he noticed her hasty steps and thought that she was avoiding him. Half
a minuteter, she came out of the kitchen with a pot of soup. She had alreadyposed herself.
Luca ced the pot on the dining table, then filled up two bowls of soup for Luke and Tommy.
Tommy came out of the bathroom and sat in front of the dining table with a toothy grin on his face.
When Luca handed him his bowl, he said, “Thank you, Ms. Luca. I love your soup.”
Luca smiled and put the other bowl in front of the seat next to Tommy.
Tommy turned his head and saw that Luke was still standing there. He patted the surface of the table
and said, “Why are you standing there, Daddy? Come over here and take a seat. Ms. Luca said that
you should eat your food while it’s hot.”
Luke raised his eyebrows. Tommy seemed to befortable in Luca’s home aftering over for
several consecutive days. He was beginning to treat the ce as his own home.
He sat down and ate a spoonful of soup. It was refreshing, light, and indeed very delicious.
After finishing the bowl of soup, Luke helped himself with the te of spaghetti that Luca prepared for
him. He asked, “Where is your younger brother?”
Luca’s hands paused for a split second when Luke mentioned Amur. She continued to put a sea bass
fillet on Tommy’s te as though nothing happened. “He’s traveling now,” she said.
“What does he do?” Luke asked.
Luca put some spaghetti on her te and exined calmly, “He doesn’t have a fixed job yet, but I’ve
heard that he wants to find work at a gym.”
“A gym?” Luke’s tone became curious. As far as he remembered, Amur had a good physique but did
not look like a fitness instructor at all.
“That’s what he wants to do,” Luca nodded and said. She ced a sea bass fillet on her te and
began to eat.
“I’m willing to help him if he needs it,” Luke said.
Luca knew that Luke had an extensive socialwork. If Luke was willing to help Amur, Amur could
obtain any job he wanted.
However, Amur was not looking for a job at all. She tried to calm herself down and said, “We’ll see what
happens. He might not remain in A City.”
Luke wanted to say something when Tommy tugged his shirt sleeve. He turned around to look at the
child.
Tommy pointed at the te of pork chops on the opposite side of the table. “Daddy, I want that.”
Luke put a pork chop on his te.
He shook his head and said, “That’s not enough, Daddy. I’m very hungry today.”
Luke patiently put another pork chop on his te. Eventually, he did not ask the question he wanted to
ask Luca.
After dinner, before the adults could say anything, Tommy rubbed his stomach and said, “Oh, I’m so
full. Ms. Luca is an amazing cook as always. Can we go home a littleter, Daddy? I want to rest for a
bit.”
Luca smiled as she cleaned the table.
“Mm,” Luke nodded and replied when he saw the smile on Luca’s face.

Luca had expected that he would agree to the request, so she was not too surprised. After stacking the
tes and cutlery, she said, “I’ve made some cupcakes for Lanie and Rainie. I’ll pack them in a box,
and you can bring them back, Mr. Crawford.”
“Alright.” Luke was quite surprised that she would do that for the other children.
Tommy sniffed the air and said, “No wonder I smelled something sweet baking earlier. I thought my
nose was ying tricks on me. Lanie and Rainie would be delighted!”
A while ago, the cook at Crawford Manor baked some cupcakes using Luca’s recipe. Rainie thought
that they were missing something, and they were not as nice as how Luca made them.
Luca put the tes in the dishwasher, then carefully packed the cupcakes in a box.
She could not stop smiling when she imagined how Rainie’s face would light up upon seeing the
cupcakes.
When Luca walked out of the kitchen with the box of cupcakes, she heard the news about the
unidentified female corpse on the television.
Luke was watching the news intently while covering Tommy’s eyes.
“Daddy, I wanna see!” Tommy tried to pry away Luke’s fingers. He did not know what was going on.
“It’s not good for children,” Luke said coldly as he watched the news report.
The report was the same asst time. There were no new developments.
Even though his back was facing Luca, Luca could imagine what his expression was like. He must be
watching the news without any expression on his face.
The fact that the corpse was the impostor Bianca did not bother him the slightest bit.

After the report ended, Luke pulled his hand away. “I’m not a child anymore, Daddy,” Tommy said
unhappily.
“You’re still small,” Luke said. “You need to eat more.”
“Yes, I’d love to eat Ms. Luca’s food. I’m so happy that I get to eat here every day!” Tommy said with a
grin. He turned around and noticed that Luca was standing behind him. “Ms. Luca!”
Lucaposed herself and handed Tommy the box. “Here are the cupcakes.”
“Yay!” Tommy realized that he had been cheering a lot today. He carefully ced the box on the coffee
table in case he got too excited and identally messed up the cupcakes.
Luke looked at the box. The typical household would not have such delicate boxes for cupcakes. Luca
must have specifically bought them.
