After Luca bought the ingredients to make chicken soup and dinner, they walked to the snacks area.
She watched Luke pick out several snacks and put them in the shopping cart.
She secretly jotted down the snacks in her head.
After that, the two of them went to the checkout counter. The cashier put all the items in the shopping
bag. Before Luca could react, Luke paid for the bill using his phone.
Luca had no choice but to follow behind him. She wanted to settle the bill by herself but did not expect
that he would fight for the bill.
Once they got home, the children surrounded them.
Tommy blinked his big watery eyes and asked, "Daddy, did you buy any snacks?"
"Yes, they''re all in the bag," Luke said.
"That''s wonderful. Long live Ms. Luca!" Tommy pped and hugged Luca''s hand.
"Huh? Long live me?" Luca looked at the children in amazement. Luke was the one who got them the
snacks, so she was not sure why they were cheering for her instead.
"If not for you, Ms. Luca, Daddy probably wouldn''t get us anything to eat. Then we''d have to go through
another day without snacks. Ms. Luca, I truly feel like Daddy''s child when you''re around!'' Tommy
comined about Luke on purpose.
Luke was not bothered by what Tommy said. After all, he knew that he did so to keep Luca around.
He would do anything as long as Luca would stay.
Luca looked at Tommy, patted his head helplessly, and said, "Your daddy was the one who bought
these. You should thank him."

"We''ll listen to everything that you say, Ms. Luca. Thank you, Daddy!" Tommy turned his head with a
smile. He winked cheekily as he thanked Luke.
He had nned it out with his siblings.
If their mommy thought their daddy did not take good care of them, she would be reluctant to leave. As
such, they were doing their best to make it seem like Luke did not care about them at all.
Luca put the shopping bags on the coffee table and took out the children''s snacks. "These snacks are
for you. Make sure you don''t eat all of them at once, okay?"
"Got it, Ms. Luca," the kids said in unison.
Luke did not say anything when the children ndered him. His goal would be achieved as long as
Luca believed them and was reluctant to have the children leave.
After Luca took out the snacks, she picked up the shopping bag and walked to the kitchen.
Tommy followed behind her like a little bootlicker. "Ms. Luca, are you going to cook?"
"Yeah, I''m going to make some chicken soup for Aunt Nina," Luca replied.
Tommy''s eyes lit up when he heard that. "Ms. Luca, can you make some more? We want to have the
chicken soup you make too. Since we started eating your cooking, we realized that other people''s food
isn''t as good. Even when Daddy takes us out to eat, the food isn''t as good as your cooking either."
Luca nodded and replied, "Okay, I''ll make more. We''ll have chicken soup for dinner tonight?"
"Yay! Ms. Luca, life is great with you around." Tommy followed her into the kitchen.
Lanie and Rainie looked at Tommy, then looked at each other. Lanie took the lead and said, "I told you
Tommy was the best person to do this."
"Yes, we''ll leave these to Tommy moving forward." Rainie decided. They were older kids and no longer
what they were when they were five years old. It felt a little childish if they were to say the things he
said.
However, it was different with Tommy. He was still at a childish age, so there was nothing wrong with
him saying things like that.
Luke listened to his daughter and son''s conversation whileughing.
"Daddy, don''tugh. We''re helping you." Rainie protested.
"Mm, it''s a great arrangement. You''re choosing the right people to do the right things. That''s smart,"
Luke said and walked upstairs.
There were too many things that happened today, so he did not have the chance to deal with the tasks
in T Corporation. He was going to work.
Each bedroom in the vi was quiterge. Luca had asked for the study to be used as aboratory, so
his desk and the children''s desks were all ced in their respective bedrooms. They did not use the
other bedrooms.
After Luca made the chicken soup, she called the children toe over and eat.
After a while, the kids and the cleaningdy were sitting at the dining table, waiting to eat. However,
Luke was nowhere to be seen.
"Where''s Mr. Crawford?" Luca asked.
"Ms. Luca, Daddy is still working in his room," Rainie said in a childish voice.
"Is that so? Ask him toe down and tell him it''s time for dinner," Luca said to Rainie.
"No, I don''t want to go." Rainie shook her head.
Luca was a little stunned that the child refused to do as she asked. "Why don''t you want to go?"
"Daddy is very serious when he works and doesn''t like to be disturbed. He''lle down to eat when
he''s hungry," Rainie exined.
When the cleaningdy heard that, she stood up and said, "I''ll go tell Young Master Luke toe
downstairs for dinner."
Rainie grabbed the cleaningdy''s hand and said, "Aunt, don''t go. It''s scary when Daddy gets angry. I
don''t want him to be angry at you."
When the cleaningdy heard it, she stopped what she was doing to ensure that she could keep her
job. However, she was not sure what to do next. She said, "The chicken soup will not taste good when
it''s cold. He might me me for it."
"Ms. Luca, you can take the chicken soup to Daddy''s bedroom. He won''t be angry if you go. Daddy
makes use of every minute to deal with work, so Ms. Luca, you should go. I''m sure he won''t be mad at
you," Rainie said.
Luca understood what Rainie meant.
Luke, who was busy at work, did not want to be disturbed. However, it would be okay if she went?
Would he be able to tolerate her interrupting his work as before?
"Yeah, Ms. Luca, hurry up. Daddy''s stomach is weak. He can''t go hungry." Lanie urged.
"Okay, then. You can start eating. I''ll bring a bowl upstairs for him." Luca did not read into it. She
understood the kids'' intentions and just went with it.
She took a small te and put some side dishes to pair with the chicken soup. Considering that the
weather was cold, if Luke did not drink the chicken soup in time, the chicken soup would go cold. She
took a thermos sk and filled it with chicken soup. She then carried a tray upstairs.
She arrived at Luke''s bedroom, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door. "Mr. Crawford, it''s me."
"Come in," Luke said.
Luca freed one hand, kept her bnce, opened the door, and saw Luke sitting in front of the desk. He
looked busy, so she put the tray aside. "Mr. Crawford, the kids say you won''t go downstairs for dinner
when you''re busy. I brought you chicken soup. Remember to have some."
"Mm." Luke nced at her before his gaze returned to theputer screen again.
He was in a meeting with international partners, so he did not pay too much attention to her.
Luca did not bother him seeing that he was so busy. She just turned around and walked out.
‘Luke is so busy... Maybe I shouldn''t have said yes to him sending me to the hospital just now.''
