Luca frowned. Usually, her wounds would not get repeatedly inmed.
Her gut feeling told her that something was wrong.
She had taken good care of the wound. Even if she had identally grazed it, it should not have gotten
inmed this many times.
She took off the bandage and was about to apply some powder to the wound when she heard the maid
say, "Ms. Craw, are you in the bedroom?"
Luca had no choice but to tidy up her appearance, walk to the door, open it, and look at the maid.
"What can I do for you?"
"Old Master Crawford said he wants to have lunch here and wants you to cook," the maid said. She did
not want to disturb Luca if she had the choice.
After all, Luca was not a maid. She was an honored guest who may even be the madam of the family in
the future.
"I see. I''ll go downstairs and start cooking in a moment." Luca did not turn her down. She was happy to
cook for Old Master Crawford.
It was just a meal. She would not be too tired from it.
"Okay." After the maid got an answer, she left happily.
After all, it was Old Master Crawford who asked to taste Luca''s cooking. Although the maid had been
trying to learn from Luca, her best efforts still could not replicate Luca''s dishes exactly.
She often helped out when Luca cooked, so she could see the ingredients and seasonings used in
each dish Luca made. If not for this, she might have thought that Luca had added some mysterious
ingredients behind the scenes. Otherwise, how could the dishes they make vary so greatly in taste?
After the maid left, Luca closed the door, locked it, and walked back into the bathroom.
She sprinkled medicinal powder on the wound, wrapped it with bandages, and nned to observe it for
two more days. If the wound was still inmed after two days, it only meant that there was something
wrong with the knife that cut her.
There was a chance that Abel hadced it with a type of drug.
She was careless and did not expect Abel to do such a thing. She thought that it was unnned, so
she did not collect the blood from the wound for analysis.
If there was really a problem, she had to slowly investigate the cause.
One person''s power was limited.
Luca pursed her lips, bandaged her wound, and swallowed a painkiller.
After she took the medicine, she nced at the time and realized that she should start preparing lunch.
Luca went downstairs and walked into the kitchen. Mrs. Nancy had alreadyid out the ingredients.
When Mrs. Nancy saw her walk in, she smiled and said, "I wasn''t sure of the dishes you wanted to
cook, so I took out all of the ingredients in the refrigerator."
"Let''s prepare something light for Old Master Crawford," Luca said as she picked up the apron beside
her.
Having lived in Crawford Manor for so many years, she knew Old Master Crawford''s taste. Hence, she
decided to cook some of his favorite home-cooked dishes.
The maid nodded and gave her a hand.
In the maid''s room.
Old Master Crawford sat on the sofa beside Luke and watched him deal with his work with a serious
expression.
Old Master Crawford said helplessly, "Are you going to let me sit here all day?"
"If you have something to say, just say it." Luke was replying to emails from T Corporation''s overseas
partners. He was much more efficient working at homepared to working in the hospital. Even
though Old Master Crawford was by his side the entire time, it did not cause much of a disturbance.
"It''s not a big deal. I just want to ask you how you''re going to resolve the matter with Luca?" Old Master
Crawford felt helpless that Luke did not even look at him and was just focused on his work.
Luke finally looked at him and responded, "What did the kids tell you?"
"What do they know?" Old Master Crawford pursed his lips. If the children knew something, he would
not be here to ask about the situation.
He was only relieved when he saw that Luca was still by Luke''s side and taking good care of him.
After all, Old Master Crawford wanted Luke and Luca to be together.
Luke''s gaze fell on theputer screen again. He did not speak.
Old Master Crawford walked to his side with the help of his cane. He deliberately knocked on Luke''s
wheelchair with it and said, "When you''re done with work, you should quickly make your rtionship
official. Otherwise, someone else will surely go after a woman as good as Luca."
"No one else can take her away," Luke said confidently. No matter how much she avoided him, he was
certain that she would not run away with another man.
That was because she was Bianca.
They had been together with each other for so long. It was as if their rtionship was destined. They
would continue to be by each other''s side no matter what.
No matter how difficult the situation was, he firmly believed that was the case.
Old Master Crawford looked at his confident appearance, sighed, raised his eyebrows, and looked at
him. "It''s good that you''re confident, but I heard there''s a man who''s going after her with all he has. You
have yet to make a move. Luca might be more into someone like him who''s making his feelings clear.
Don''te crying to me when she''s holding someone else''s hand!"
Luke listened to his grandfather saying things that he should not say at his age. He shook his head
helplessly and maneuvered the wheelchair so he was facing Old Master Crawford. "You''re well-
informed." "I''m your grandfather. Even if I retire, there are still a lot of people willing to tell me about
what''s happening in thepany as long as I''m interested to know," Old Master Crawford said.
Although he no longer managed thepany, he was still actively aware of what went on.
"Haven''t you fully retired?" Luke picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip of warm water. He
remembered that almost all the people who built thepany with Old Master Crawford had retired.
"Don''t worry about it. It''s obvious now that someone is fighting for her hand with you. What are you
going to do?" Old Master Crawford changed the subject.
"Don''t worry, he''s not a worthy opponent.” Once Luke was done speaking, he maneuvered the
wheelchair and sat upright. "As long as you don''t cause any trouble, everything is under my control."
"I almost believed you. Things are under your control? Didn''t things almost get out of control this time?"
Old Master Crawford knew more than the children.
"You talked to Jason?" Luke asked suddenly.

Old Master Crawford shook his head again and again. "No, no. I have a lot of people telling me things.
Speaking of which, that boy from the Mallory family is interesting. I heard that he fought against
everyone for Nina..."
Luke understood the situation. It turned out that apart from thepany''s employees, his friends were
also the source of Old Master Crawford''s news.
He was speechless.
At the same time, his phone rang.
Luke nced at his phone and found that Percy had texted.
Speaking of the devil...
He opened the message and saw a long message from Percy.
Luke finished reading it with a gloomy expression. Percy told him that he had investigated Enoch inside
and out but found nothing.
The small mistakes he made when he was young and ignorant were simply not enough to deal with
him. Enoch was just an ordinary person.
Old Master Crawford stood behind him and was squinting hard to read his text. He then shook his head
helplessly. "I thought that you weren''t bothered with that kid. I didn''t expect you to have someone look
into him. But there''s nothing on him?”
