If he was attending to those Russians, then would Tia be there too?


    Even though Luca noticed that what had happened between them was a thing of the past, she felt


    ufortable when she thought of another woman entering his life.


    It felt like the man that she loved had been stolen by someone else.


    Luke was not a toy. He was a man. However, it felt terrible knowing that someone could steal him from


    her.


    Luca let out a sigh. She took Tommy''s uniform out of the washing machine and hung them on the


    balcony.


    She walked into the bathroom and took a shower. She felt her heart warm up when she looked at


    Tommy who was sleeping soundly on the bed. She reckoned Luke would not be picking up the child


    tonight. She hugged the child and slept with him.


    The apartment''s doorbell rang when it was in the middle of the night.


    Luca did not take sleeping pills. Hence, she did not fall into a deep sleep. She opened her eyes once


    she heard the bell.


    Luca trotted out of the bedroom when the doorbell was still ringing. She nced outside through the


    peephole. It was Luke.


    Did hee to pick up the child?


    Luca opened the door and gave way to the man who was standing outside. She sniffed the air without


    knowing it herself. He did not stink of alcohol, which indicated that he did not attend the business


    dinner. She was secretly rejoicing when she realized that. "Mr. Crawford, you''re here."


    Luke looked at her sleepy eyes. She had probably just woken up. He nodded and walked into the


    house. He could not find the child in the living room. He reckoned she had already brought the child


    inside the room to sleep. "I''m here to pick Tommy up."


    Luca nced at the clock on the wall. It was already one o''clock in the morning. She did not expect him


    to pick the child up at this hour.


    She calcted the distance of the journey. If he sent the child home now, it would take almost an hour


    to arrive home. Even though there were no cars on the road in the middle of the night, it was still going


    to take half an hour...


    Luca said, “Tommy is asleep. Why don''t you let him sleep here tonight?”


    Luke pushed the bedroom door open. The child was sleeping soundly in the bedroom. Tommy was the


    kind of child who was very sensitive to unfamiliar environments and outsiders, but he was fine with


    Luca.


    “Did he sleep at ten o''clock?" Luke asked.


    Luca nodded. "Yes. He got sleepy around ten. Then, he fell asleep."


    Luke looked at her. "Then let him sleep here tonight."


    Luca nodded, but she was struggling in her heart. Her intention of letting Tommy sleep here was to


    make him stay here tonight as well. That way, he would be able to have another hour of sleep.


    However, how was she going to tell him that?


    "I''m sleeping here tonight. Do you mind if I sleep on the couch?" Luke asked. He came here to pick his


    child up, but Luca said the child could stay. Since that was the case, he would just go along with her


    and stay here too.


    Luca was startled for a moment. She did not expect him to voice out his intention to spend the night


    here first. She replied, "Why don''t you sleep with Tommy? I''ll sleep in the maid''s room tonight."


    Luke furrowed his brows. She tried to exin when she saw him frowning, "I have a nket for the bed


    in the maid''s room. Don''t worry about it. You should go rest. Oh, do you want to shower first?"


    "I took a bath at the office," replied Luke. He had been busy with the tender until now.


    He must win the tender this time.


    Luca nodded. She could feel he was staring at her. She rubbed her hands and said, "I''m going back to


    sleep first. Goodnight, Mr. Crawford."


    She entered the maid''s room and closed the door after that.

    Luke looked at the door that was closed with his deep eyes. Could it be that she was Bianca?


    The DNA test would prove everything. He would know the truth eventually...


    Luke walked into the master bedroom. He looked at the child who was fast asleep. He took off his coat


    andy down on the bed.


    There was Luca''s scent on the pillow and the nket. He closed his eyes and caught a whiff of her


    scent. He was at peace.


    On the other hand, Luca was lying down on the maid''s bed. She could not fall asleep.


    It was not because the maid''s bed was ufortable. She just felt uneasy whenever she thought of


    Luke being in the bedroom next to her.


    She did not know if it was her who was imagining things. She could feel that Luke''s gaze would always


    fall on her now and then after what had happenedst night.


    Was he truly drunk and asleep that time?


    If he was, why was he acting like this now?


    Luca was having a hard time figuring it out. She just needed to know if he was aware of everything that


    had happened that night. She could exin it to him if he knew about it, but what if he did it without


    knowing it?


    Would it not be awkward for her if she told him about it?


    Luke would probably misunderstand her for being up to something.


    Luke was a defensive person. She had tried so hard to make him lower his guard against her. She


    must not do such things to arouse his suspicion again.


    Luca let out a sigh. She tossed and turned on the bed, trying to fall asleep.


    The next day.


    Tommy woke up and realized the person beside him was Luke and not Luca. He shook him. "Daddy."


    Luke did not respond to him as he was deeply asleep.


    Tommy pinched his face and spoke louder, "Daddy!"


    Luke slowly opened his eyes and looked at his son, who was already awake. He grabbed his hand


    away from his face. "What..."


    "Daddy, are you a sleepyhead? You''d always wake up the moment I call you. But I couldn''t wake you


    up this time.." Tommy asked him with a smile on his face.


    Luke was a light sleeper back then. He would always wake up immediately whenever he heard noises,


    but he was able to fall deeply asleep on Luca''s bed this time.


    He sat up on the bed. He looked at his son and asked, "Did you get enough sleep?"


    Tommy nodded his head. "I woke up earlier than Daddy today. Oh, it was Ms. Luca who apanied


    me to sleepst night. Why is it you.."


    The child looked around him and saw no sign of Luca. He asked seriously, "Daddy, you didn''t kick her


    out to sleep here, right?"


    "Am I that kind of person?" Luke gave him a sulky look and carried him down the bed. "You''re awake


    now. Hurry up and get changed. Have your breakfast and get ready for school."


    "Daddy, why are you here?" Tommy asked while he was wearing his slippers.


    "I came to pick you upst night, but you were asleep," Luke exined. He lowered his head and


    nced at the crumpled shirt he had worn to sleep. He could not wear this anymore. Fortunately, his


    clothes were still here.


    "Well, then where did Ms. Luca sleep?" Tommy asked again.


    "In the maid''s room." Luke got out of bed. He unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt, exposing his strong


    chest.


    "Daddy, how could you let Ms. Luca sleep in the maid''s room? You should be sleeping there." Tommy


    kept on muttering. He was obviously unhappy with such an arrangement.


    Luke put on a sulky expression. He grabbed his suit coat and pushed the door open.


    Was Tommy really his biological son?


    Tommy walked out of the room and saw Luca in the living room. He ran toward her happily. "Ms. Luca,


    I''m awake!"
