"You!" Susan widened her eyes as she looked at her from behind. She refused to believe that Luca


    was still unwilling to cooperate with her even after what she had said to her.


    She did not admit her intention when she was trying to trick Luca into talking to her throughout the


    conversation. Susan gnashed her teeth angrily as she looked at how invulnerable Luca was.


    She even told Luca that Bianca was dead only to make her willing to cooperate with her...


    Luca had no idea what was good for her!


    A thought came across Susan''s mind as she watched Luca walk into Rainie''s bedroom. She should


    take advantage of her if she could not make Luca an ally.


    She had a n in her mind at once.


    Luca had no idea what Susan was up to. She walked into the bedroom carefully, afraid of waking


    Rainie up.


    Shey down on the bed. Rainie huddled up and clung to her tightly when she felt Luca''s warm body.


    Luca put her arms around the child and fell deep asleep.


    On the other hand.

    Mr. Griffin reported to Old Master Crawford about Susan meeting up with Luca at the balcony.


    Old Master Crawford had asked him to keep an eye on Luca, so Mr. Griffin had been watching over her


    without missing anything out.


    However, he did not know what both of them were talking about. The security cameras in the house


    had no audio features. It was to protect the family''s privacy.


    However, Mr. Griffin had noticed Susan''s facial expression and assumed they did not have a pleasant


    conversation.


    While Old Master Crawford was listening to Mr. Griffin''s report, he could not help but make a guess.


    "They don''t even know each other. What can they talk about?"


    The butler shook his head.


    Old Master Crawford said, "Didn''t she want nothing to do with Luca, yet she''s talking to her now. What


    does she want from Luca?"


    The butler remained silent. It was true that Susan hated Luca.


    Old Master Crawford was thinking about how Allison was going to be released from prison soon. She


    would certainly return to Crawford Manor judging from her health condition now.


    There would be no peace in the Crawford family with Susan and Allison in the house. Susan must be


    up to something now.


    “Keep an eye on her. Don''t let her cause any trouble in the family." Old Master Crawford was talking


    about Susan.


    The two women his son had found were both troublemakers. If it were not because they had


    contributed to the Crawford family, he would have kicked both of them out of the Crawford family.


    "Yes, I got it," Mr. Griffin replied. He was thinking that if Susan was really bent on causing trouble, he


    would not be able to stop her.


    When Luca woke up, she realized that three pairs of eyes were staring at her.


    The kids were awake, and they were standing beside the bed looking at her silently. She sat up, slightly


    confused. Did they not say they wanted to take a nap? Why were they all looking at her?


    "Ms. Luca, you''re finally awake." Tommy hopped on the bed and wrapped his arms around her waist.


    "What happened? Was I asleep for too long?" Luca stroked Tommy''s head. She nned to close her


    eyes and apany Rainie for a while. She did not expect to fall asleep.


    "Ms. Luca, you slept for a very long time. It''s almost three o''clock now," said Tommy. They walked to


    the bedside eagerly after they woke up. Then, they realized Luca was still asleep.


    They stood at the bedside and stared at her when they saw her sleeping so soundly. They made no


    noise so she could continue sleeping.


    Tommy even got downstairs to inform the butler not to disturb her. He asked him not to send their


    afternoon tea upstairs. They did not know when Luca would wake up. They just did not want to wake


    her up.


    "It''s almost three? I''ve been sleeping for that long?" Luca cried out in surprise. She picked her phone


    up and nced at the time. It was indeed almost three o''clock.


    "Ms. Luca, you sleep a lot." Tommy sounded a little intive.


    Luca knew why. It was because she had promised the kids that she would continue to tell them the


    story after they woke up. She did not expect she would sleep that long.


    "I''m sorry. You could''ve woken me up," Luca reminded them. She wanted the kids to know that she was


    not a person who was hard to get along with.


    Tommy shook his head and said, "We won''t wake Ms. Luca up. You''re the same as Daddy. You don''t


    get enough sleep. So, we wanted to let you sleep more. The same goes for Daddy. It''s rare for him to


    find time to sleep, so we won''t wake him up because getting more sleep is good for his health."


    "Your daddy?" Luca thought of Luke. He was indeed a workaholic. Many times, he would stay up all


    night to work.


    He must be tired, carrying the responsibilities of managing such a bigpany on his shoulders.


    Luca could not help share his load, and she even had to do such things...


    She clenched her fists tightly. A helpless feeling came flooding into her heart.


    "Ms. Luca, continue to tell us the story." Tommy noticed that she seemed to be in a bad mood, so he


    changed the subject.


    "Sure." Luca got out of the bed and tidied her hair with her fingers.


    Tommy got out of the bed too.


    The four of them sat in a circle on the rug. Someone knocked on the bedroom door when Luca was


    about to start her story. She turned around and saw Luke pushing the door open.


    "Daddy!" The three kids called out unanimously when they saw him walking in.


    Luke looked at the bedroom. Luca was sitting there, surrounded by the kids. It looked harmonious as if


    they were a family.


    "What are you all doing here?" He walked in while staring nkly at them.


    Luca noticed that although Luke had juste back, he was wearing casual clothes. He must have


    been dealing with some personal matters instead of work.


    "Daddy, Ms. Luca is telling us a story. It''s the story that she didn''t get to finishst time!" Tommy said


    with a smile. He stood up, walked toward him, and held his hand. "Do you want to join us?"


    Luke nced at Luca. It took only a few seconds for the woman who was looking at him to avert her


    gaze.


    She seemed reluctant to look him in the eye. She even wanted to avoid him...


    Luke shook his head and stroked the kid''s head, saying, "I still have work to do. Enjoy yourself."


    "Alright, Daddy." Tommy returned to his seat beside Luca after Luke left, and he startedining.


    "Ms. Luca, look at Daddy. He''s a workaholic. He''s so busy that he doesn''t have the time for us."


    "He''s taking care of you all too." Luca stroked the kid''s head like how Luke stroked Tommy''s head the


    same way just now.


    Luke worked so hard. He did it all for the Crawford family and the kids.


    Although she did not support such ways to take care of the kids as the kids needed hispany and


    love as well, she understood Luke.


    After all, T Corporation was in his hands. The management and development of thepany could


    only move forward.


    Luke could only put in more effort and time to surpass the Old Master Crawford''s performance to pull


    an impressive act and make those people who were covetously eyeing his position learn their ce.


    Luke had to do it for the family and the children.


    When she was still Bianca, she would insist on spending time with the kids every week even though


    she was busy with work. That would allow Luke to have more energy to handle his work.
