Luke''s eyes darkened when he saw those colored pencils.


    This little brat must have done it on purpose, right? It looked like there was no way he could escape


    from getting his cast drawn on by the kids today.


    Luke watched helplessly as the kids started to draw on his cast.


    Even Lanie, who had always been calm and mature, picked up a ck-colored pencil and wrote on his


    cast: [Get well soon, Daddy.]


    Luke looked at his children. There was a trace of affection amidst the look of helplessness in his eyes.


    Although Luke was strict with his kids, he truly loved them from the bottom of his heart.


    Luca stood beside and watched the kids draw on Luke''s cast. Although the kids were still young, their


    drawings were pretty good as they had been exposed to different kinds of hobbies for such a long time.


    The drawings on the cast were not messy. The kids had filled the white cast with innocent and colorful


    drawings.


    It was stunning.


    It was just like beautiful scenery during spring.


    Luca watched them for quite some time. Then, the wound on her waist was hurting again, reminding


    her that she needed to take the medicine and dress the wound. Otherwise, the wound would be


    inmed.


    She had to return to the vi to get the medicine.


    Luca asked Luke after she decided to go back, “Mr. Crawford, I''d like to go back home to get some of


    my things since the maid is here now. It won''t take long. Half an hour will do."


    Luke nodded. He knew she was not looking for an excuse to leave. That was why he gave her


    permission to do so. "Alright. Zander is waiting downstairs. Ask him to send you back."


    Zander was the one who sent the maid and the kids here. He was still waiting in the parking lot


    downstairs.


    "It''s alright. I drove here. There''s no need to trouble Zander." Luca put on her jacket, picked up her


    phone and keys, then left the ward.


    Lanie watched Luca leave from behind, then he turned around and looked at Luke. “Daddy, aren''t you


    afraid that Ms. Luca will never return once she leaves?"


    Luke stroked his son''s head and replied, "She''s not like that."


    Luca came to the parking lot. She left after she found where her car was.


    Luca''s wound hurt even when she was driving.


    It was painful...


    Luca wondered why the wound that was about to recover would suddenly hurt a lot.


    She endured the pain and drove back to the vi. Then, she walked into her bedroom and opened the


    drawer, looking for the medicine.


    Luca was not in a hurry to leave. She treated her wound first, then dressed it. After that, she took some


    painkillers and antibiotics. It took a while before she felt the pain reducing. Only then did she pack the


    supplies and medicine she needed so that she could bring them along with her.


    She immediately headed to the hospital without any dy.


    Tommy came over to hold Luca''s hand the moment she returned to Luke''s ward. He was excited to


    show her their drawings on Luke''s cast.


    Luca smiled and praised them when she saw the colorful drawings and the children''s wishes on the


    cast. “How beautiful!"


    "Ms. Luca, you think the drawings are nice too, right? Daddy says they''re bad. He''s a liar!" Tommy


    comined while pouting his mouth.


    Luca looked at Luke. He looked disdainful, and she thought he was behaving like that because he had


    be a drawing board for the kids.


    Luca stroked Tommy''s head and nced at the time. Then, she reminded them, "It''ste. It''s time to go


    home. You''re runningte for dinner."


    She had to remind the kids that dinner time was fixed at Crawford Manor. She knew that, which was


    why she reminded them.


    "Alright. Ms. Luca, Daddy, we''lle to visit again tomorrow." Tommy turned around and said to Luke.


    He did not insist on staying here.


    When they were on the way to the hospital, his elder brother and sister had told him that Daddy and


    Ms. Luca had been very busytely. They had to be more understanding and stop thinking about


    sticking around Daddy and Ms. Luca.


    The ward became quiet again once the kids had left.


    Luke looked down and stared at the colorful cast. He asked, "Can I wash it off?"


    Luca blinked and looked at him, "Mr. Crawford?"


    "Can this be washed off?" Luke asked.


    "I''m afraid not. It''s hard to wash the colors off once they''re on the cast," Luca replied honestly. Besides,


    it was not the time to wash them off now. It would take up to a month before he could remove the cast.


    Luke picked up the folder and continued to read the documents.


    "I''ve already informed Mr. Doyle to get you a few loose-fitting pants. You can wear those to cover up


    the cast when you''re discharged," said Luca. She knew Luke was not concerned about the kids''


    drawings, but it would affect his aura if his cast was so colorful.


    Luca understood him. That was why she mentioned it to Jason when she was on the way back here.


    "You asked him to get those for me?" Luke frowned.


    Luca looked at him in surprise. “Is there something wrong?"


    “I don''t wear clothes prepared by another man." Luke was disgusted at the thought of this. He thought


    personal items like clothes and shoes should not be prepared by another man.


    Moreover, he was not in an urgent situation now. Why did Luca ask Jason to prepare these for him?


    Luca could do this herself.


    “You mean—" Luca seemed to understand what he meant, but she was not certain.


    Besides, she refused to make the decision herself and prepare the clothes for him.


    Luke could not help but sigh when he heard her asking. Luca understood what he had in mind, yet she


    still behaved as such. “I don''t trust Mr. Doyle''s taste when ites to picking my outfits. I''ll leave this to


    you."

    "Ah, okay." Luca nodded her head stiffly.


    “Do you know my size?" Luke asked that question intentionally. Luca should know it as she was the


    one who prepared all his clothes for him back then, including those tailor-made outfits.


    Of course, Luca knew it. Luke''s body had not changed, hence his size would not have changed either.


    “I don''t." Luca bit the bullet and lied to him in his face.


    When he looked at her lying to him without any changes in her expression, it reminded Luke of how


    she used to blush for the whole day after she whispered sweet nothings in his ear. She could lie to him


    in his face without any changes in her expression now.


    "My clothes are in the vi. You can go there and take a look." Luke''s voice sounded stiff now.


    "Alright, Mr. Crawford." Luca nodded. Then, she put the bag that she was carrying into the cab


    prepared for the patient''s caretaker.


    “What did you take when you returned to the vi?" Luke asked again.


    "Just some skincare products that I use daily," answered Luca. She nced at the time after she kept


    her items. It waste. Luke had to take a shower...


    Luke was a neat freak. There was no way he would skip taking a shower, but.


    Luca was in an awkward situation now. She was not Bianca now. Would this man befortable being


    naked in front of her?


    Luca thought it would be inappropriate even if Luke was willing. She was not shy, but it was unsuitable


    for her to do so.


    Luca cleared her throat and asked, “Mr. Crawford, would you like to take a shower today?"


    “Yes, of course." Luke closed the folder and nced at the time. It was time for him to get cleaned up.


    “Get ready."


    “Get ready? I think it''ll be inappropriate for me to do this. Why don''t I look for a nurse to help you?


    Perhaps a male caretaker will be fine." Luca asked. It was indeed unsuitable for her to do so.
