Chapter 1778

    Luca was patient. She waited until the kids had finished talking before replying to each of them. Then,


    she asked them, "Where''s your daddy?"


    Rainie pointed upstairs, "Daddy is upstairs. He''s still working."


    "Alright. Be good. I''m going upstairs to discuss something with him." Luca had bought some chocte-


    vored candies before she came back. She took them out of her pocket and gave two candies to each


    of them. Then, she headed upstairs.


    After what had happened today, she was pretty sure that she would not get into trouble. Still, she had


    to tell Luke about it.


    She walked upstairs to the second floor. Luca directly knocked on his bedroom door. This time, it was


    not because of her affairs but about Nina and the Mallory family. It had nothing to do with their love


    matters. Hence, she was able to face him directly.


    "Come in." Luke''s voice came from inside.


    Luca pushed the door open and saw that the man was busy with his work. He was typing on the


    keyboard handling his work. He was not in a meeting, so he was avable to talk.

    "Mr. Crawford, I''d like to have a word with you. Can you spare me five minutes of your time?" she


    asked.


    "Come in and talk to me. I''m not used to talking to someone from a far distance," Luke said in a cold


    tone as he nced at Luca, who was still standing at the door.


    Luca was startled for a moment. She told herself that his bedroom was not some bottomless abyss.


    She walked in.


    Luke pointed at the couch beside him and said, "Sit down and talk."


    "There''s no need to. It''s not really a big deal. It''s just that I ran into Pierre when I came out of the


    hospital just now. I couldn''t help but give him a lecture." Luca told him what she did.


    Luke frowned and looked at her. "Are you hurt?"


    Luca was slightly surprised. He did not me her or judge her for what she did. Instead, he was


    concerned about her and asked if she was hurt.


    "No. He can''ty a finger on me," she answered honestly. The incidentst time was merely an


    ident.


    If he had not used dirty tricks to trap her after kidnapping her, she would not have ended up in such a


    mess.


    Luke looked at her from head to toe. He nodded his head after making sure that she was not hurt. "It''d


    be better to avoid someone like Pierre when you see him next time."


    Luca replied, "Alright."


    She knew that she would have to face Pierre''s revenge after dealing with him.


    He was a petty man. Besides, she could not predict when Pierre would strike again.


    "Did you beat him up badly?" Luke asked again. He did not intend to me her for punishing him by


    beating him up.


    "Perhaps," Luca replied honestly. It might not be considered serious because there were no wounds on


    his body. Even if he went for a check-up, the doctor would not be able to tell what was wrong with him.


    However, she was sure that he would be in pain for a couple of days after she beat him up.


    Luke looked at her. What was she talking about?


    Luca then exined, "He''s going to suffer for the next few days. But there are no wounds on his body,


    and he won''t be able to find out what''s wrong with him either."


    Luke knew that she must have used her own ways to teach Pierre a lesson.


    After all, after what had happened thest time and Nina getting kidnapped by him this time, Luca must


    be holding a grudge against him.


    "Apart from these?" Luke knew there was more to it apart from her teaching Pierre a lesson.


    Luca was stunned. How did he know her so well? Yes, there was something else she wanted to talk to


    him about...


    "There''s a recording." Luca took her phone out and hit the y button.


    After Luke finished listening to it, he did not frown. Instead, he said, "The recording—"


    "I''m not nning to give it to Mr. Mallory. I don''t know what he''s up to, but if he can''t handle this matter


    properly, I''ll consider sending this to him," said Luca.


    She still thought of letting Percy deal with Nina''s affair himself, but she would lend him a hand when


    necessary.


    The recording was just a backup.


    Luke gazed deeply at her. She had changed a lot. She could do anything to protect the people she


    cared about regardless of the consequences.


    She could even go this far for Nina. However, she chose to run away from him.


    There was nothing Luke could do. He had no choice but to advise her and say, "Pierre won''t let you get


    away with it. Be careful."


    "Okay." Luca was still surprised that he did not me her for being impulsive.


    After telling Luke what she wanted to say, she looked at the thick pile of folders on his table. She


    refused to bother him any longer. "Mr. Crawford, I''m going back to work first."


    "Alright," replied Luke.


    Luca turned around and left. Then, she closed the door.


    Luke watched her from behind as she disappeared behind the wooden door. He let out a sigh. "When


    will you openly face me?"


    Luca returned to her bedroom and took out the documents that needed to be tranted. She sat down


    at the table and began tranting.


    She told the children that she had something to do and would be busy. The three of them could not


    have been more considerate. They did note in to disturb her.


    They did not evene to the second floor.


    Two hourster, Luca was done tranting one document. When she was about to head downstairs to


    get a ss of water, she pushed the door open and saw the maid pacing back and forth outside Luke''s


    bedroom.


    “What''s the matter?" Luca stepped forward and asked when she saw the uneasiness on the maid''s


    expression.


    The maid saw her and said immediately, "Ms. Luca, the police officers are downstairs. They im that


    they''re looking for you."


    Luca was puzzled. Why was the maid outside Luke''s bedroom if they were looking for her?


    "Are they downstairs?"


    The maid nodded. She instantly stopped Luca when she saw Luca going downstairs. "Ms. Luca, it


    seems that they''re looking for you because you beat someone up. Why don''t you let Mr. Crawford


    handle this?"


    Luca shook her head. She knew the police officers were here because of Pierre''s matter.


    She did not expect Pierre to be so shameless. He even called the police after getting beaten up by a


    woman. Was he not embarrassed to be taught a lesson by a woman?


    "It''s not a big deal. I can handle this myself." Luca did not want to disturb Luke.


    She did not leave any wounds on Pierre''s body. Hence, there was nothing the police officers could do


    about this. Even though there were surveince cameras there, they would still be able to see that


    Pierre was the one who started it. She was just defending herself.


    She did not even leave a wound on his body when she defended herself against him. What could the


    police officers say?


    Luca was preparing to go downstairs to talk with those police officers. Luke''s bedroom door was


    pushed open when she took a step forward.


    Luke stared at the maid outside the door, then at Luca, who was not far away from her. He asked,


    "What happened?"


    The maid was worried that she might disturb him if she knocked on the door. That was why she was


    hesitating outside the door. She immediately told Luke when she saw him, "Mr. Crawford, there are two


    police officers downstairs. They came to look for Ms. Luca, iming that Ms. Luca beat someone up.


    And they want her to cooperate with them in the investigation."


    Luke frowned and turned to look at Luca.


    Her expression was calm, and there was not even a trace of fear or worry on her face.
