"I''ll let you draw the lots to decide which hotel we''ll be going to," said Luke as he took a piece of paper
out of his briefcase and tore it into four equal squares.
He had specifically picked the hotels and nned to let the old master decide which one he would
prefer to celebrate his birthday party at. Hence, he knew all the hotel names. He folded the papers after
writing down the hotel names on them, then he ced them on the coffee table.
What Luke did had caught the children''s attention. They stood beside the coffee table and looked at
Old Master Crawford.
It was a pretty good idea to solve the problem. Old Master Crawford drew one of the papers casually.
"This will be it."
"Alright." Luke opened it and looked at it.
"Daddy, what hotel is it?" Rainie was curious.
"Hotel Viking," answered Luke.
Rainie immediately replied, "Didn''t Mommy participate in the design of that hotel?"
There was a deafening silence in the living room after she said that.
Rainie realized that she might have said something wrong, so she quickly added, "I''m going upstairs to
sleep. Goodnight, Daddy. Goodnight, Great-grandpa."
"Come on,e on. It''s time for bed." Old Master Crawford shot a nce at Luke. Back then, he could
notice the subtle changes in Luke''s expression whenever someone mentioned Bianca.

However, Luke looked unusually calm at this moment.
Something was wrong...
Old Master Crawford was eager to know if he had found out anything, but Luke stood up and headed
upstairs before he managed to say anything.
Old Master Crawford nced at the butler beside him. "Do you know what happened to him?"
Mr. Griffin shook his head. "Young Master Luke wouldn''t tell me anything even if something did
happen."
"Keep a close eye on him," Old Master Crawford ordered. He would send someone to find out since
Luke refused to tell him about it.
"Yes," answered Mr. Griffin. How was he supposed to find out if Luke intended to keep the matter to
himself? He helped the old master when he saw him standing up.
The following day.
Luke drove to the hospital after he sent the children to school.
He came too early. Johann had yet to put on his white coat when he entered his office.
He nced at the time when he saw Luke walking in, and he said in a teasing manner, "You''re so early.
You couldn''t wait to know the results, huh?"
Luke rolled his eyes at him.
Johann surrendered at once. "Alright. I''m not going to make fun of you. And it''s early, so they''re
probably still doing the report. You might have to wait for another half an hour."
"Sure," replied Luke. He could wait for half an hour. There were some things he would have to wait for.
Johann put on his white coat and looked at the time. He said, "I''m going for my ward round first. I''ll get
the report for you after that."
The DNA test this time was extremely important. He did not feel assured to leave the matter to
someone else to handle after the incident with Bianca''s impostor. Hence, he decided to take the matter
into his own hands. The people who helped with the test were those he personally knew well.
"Alright," Luke replied. He picked up his phone and opened his mailbox. There was a flicker in his eyes
when he saw the trantion text that Luca sent himst night.
Johann knew Luke was feeling anxious, but the results could not be rushed. He left the office and went
for his ward round. He headed to the diagnostics center only after he finished the ward round and
solved the minor issues the patients were having.
He was carrying the freshly printed report in his hands.
Without dy, Johann handed the report to Luke. "This is the DNA test report. I haven''t read it. Here
you go."
Luke picked up the report. It was only a report consisting of a few sheets of paper, but it was
surprisingly heavy when he held it in his hands.
Once he turned the page, the truth would be revealed.
What would he do if Luca was not Bianca?
The moment Luke began to wonder if Luca was Bianca, he already noticed that he had different
feelings toward Luca.
However, Bianca was the only one who had ever made him feel that way for a woman. He would not be
able to handle it if he found out Luca was not Bianca.
Johann got anxious when he saw that Luke was not opening the report. "What are you doing? Open it
now."
What Johann said made him no longer hesitate. He opened the report right away, skipping the glossary
of gic terms and turning to thest page.
The probability of Tommy and Luca being mother and son was 99.9%...
"What is it?" Johann looked at Luke staring at the report while frozen in ce. He was dying to snatch
that report from Luke and look at it himself. He reckoned he would have done that if he were not afraid
of Luke''s death stare.
"She''s Bianca," replied Luke. He was shocked and a little bewildered at the same time.
"Really?" Johann grabbed the report from him, and he saw the end of the report. He felt happy for
Luke. “Congrattions! She''s fine, and she came back to you."
He had witnessed for himself how deeply in love Luke was with her. Now that Bianca had returned, he
was naturally happy for them as Luke''s friend.
Johann thought of telling Percy about it, but when he saw the expression on Luke''s face, it seemed that
the man was not excited at all. Apart from astonishment, there was only confusion on his face.
He patted Luke''s shoulder. “What''s wrong with you? Are you alright?"
"Luca is Bianca," Luke repeated as if he was reminding himself about it.
“Yes, she''s Bianca. It''s been three years. I didn''t expect her to be so capable now. Your wife is really
something else!" Johann eximed. Previously, Bianca was clueless about medicine. However, she
came back as an expert in the medical profession.
“She''s Bianca. But why did shee back with a different face? Why did she approach me with
another identity?" Luke asked.
Johann did not consider that much, but his smile was frozen after Luke posed such questions.
Yes, Luca was Bianca. However, everything that she was doing now was very suspicious.
She loved Luke so much. Even though something might have happened which caused her looks to
change, it was suspicious that she did not acknowledge Luke and her children upon her return.
She was different from the Bianca she used to be.
Johann only thought of this after he felt happy for Luke. Even so, no matter how hard they tried to find
the answer, Bianca was the only one who could answer their questions.
He asked, “Are you nning to expose her?"
“Shred the report," Luke nced at the report and said.
Johann furrowed his brows, but he still put the report into the shredder. Listening to the shredding
sound of the machine, they knew the report was in shreds now.
It was because Luke had emphasized to not leave any traces behind in the hospital.
It indicated that they would have to do the test again if they wanted to get another report.
Luke did that only because he did not want anyone else to know about it, and at the same time, he did
not n to expose Luca.
Luke stood up after he watched the machine shred the report into pieces. “I''m not going to expose
Luca. She must have her own reasons, and it must be rted to the mastermind behind her."
There must be a reason why she returned with a new face and a new identity after being kidnapped.
