Although the woman in front of her was skinny, she was tall. She was a foot taller than Luca, and she


    did not seem like the type who one would fall easily.


    The woman shook her head and replied, “No, thanks. I was in a hurry. It''s not your fault."


    After that, she headed straight and kept going.


    She was slightly limping after she fell just now. Luca felt sorry for her and came forward to help her up.


    "It''s my fault. Where are you going? Let me help you."


    “I''m going home. It''s not far away from here. Youngdy, go ahead. I''ll be fine." The woman did not


    intend to me Luca for it. It was not a big deal.

    "Since it''s not far away, let me send you home. You don''t want to head to the hospital for a check-up,


    so at least let me send you home. That way, I won''t worry about you," Luca insisted.


    "Okay. Thank you." The woman did not insist on walking back herself. She let Luca help her home.


    Fortunately, the weather was cold but she wore enoughyers to keep herself warm. Hence, it only hurt


    a little.


    "It''s nothing." Luca carefully helped the woman up. Even though she woreyers of clothes, Luca could


    still feel how skinny and weak the woman was.


    Foreigners were tall and big-boned. That was why the woman looked taller than Luca, but she was


    skinny.


    Luca immediately understood why the woman fell after she bumped into her.


    Luca could not help but wonder at the thought of this. Foreigners usually could get a good job in A City.


    Many parents were willing to send their children to foreign teachers to teach them othernguages.


    Hence, they were able to live afortable life with such a job.


    However, the woman in front of her... Other than her blonde hair and blue eyes, the way she dressed


    and herplexion were the same as the people living on this street.


    She looked poor.


    Luca could not help but get even more confused. She was good at judging someone''s character. Even


    though the woman fell after being bumped into, she did not pester Luca. All she wanted was to go


    home. The woman''s gentle aura made Luca feel like the woman in front of her was a well-educated


    middle-aged woman.


    "We''ve arrived. Thank you, youngdy." The woman interrupted Luca''s thoughts. Luca lifted her head


    and nced at the shabby house. The lower ss in A City would usually stay in ces like this.


    Normally, it was hard to see foreigners staying on this street.


    "Okay. Oh, I''ll leave you my name card. Feel free to call me anytime when you need help," said Luca


    as she took her name card out of her pocket and handed it to her.


    The woman took the name card from Luca, smiled, and replied, "Don''t worry. I won''te looking for


    trouble."


    "I shall leave." Luca gave her a polite nod, turned around, and wondered which country the woman


    came from.


    She could speak English well, and she did not have a foreign ent.


    While Luca pondered, she nced at the time. She would not make it to the office before getting off


    work if she did not hail a ride soon. She quickly walked out of the alley and hailed a taxi back to T


    Corporation.


    Luca managed to return to her office before it was time to get off work.


    She pushed her office door open, only to notice that there was a basket of fruits on her coffee table.


    Luca blinked her eyes. She left in a hurry just now. That was why she did not notice whether the fruits


    were already on the table or not.


    She turned around, headed to the assistants'' office, and asked Zoey, who was busy photocopying the


    documents, “Ms. Davis, what''s with the fruit basket in my office?”


    "Dr. Craw, it''s the fruit basket Boss asked Mr. Doyle to get for you." Zoey smiled. Zoey already knew


    something was going on between Luca and their boss, so she chuckled.


    "When was it sent here?" Luca asked as she became alert.


    If Jason had sent the fruits to her office while she went out, then she probably could not hide the fact


    that she had gone out during office hours from Luke.


    Now, Matysh still had his eyes on her. Luca would certainly get scolded by Luke for hiding things from


    him and not asking Warren to send her around.


    "It was around noon. You already had lunch at that time, and it was inappropriate to deliver the fruit


    basket Boss got you to the meeting room. So, he left it in your office. Didn''t you see it just now? The


    fruit basket has always been there," answered Zoey while she arranged the photocopied documents.


    Luca let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was sent around noon time.


    "I was in a hurry, so I didn''t notice. Thanks." After Luca thanked her, she turned around and returned to


    her office.


    Luca sat on the sofa and stared at the fruit basket. Even though it was left there for an afternoon, the


    temperature was low, and that was why the fruits still looked fresh.


    They were all imported fruits.


    Luke had prepared this fruit basket for her.


    Luca nced at the time. It was time to get off work. She tidied her stuff and carried the fruit basket


    along with her.


    After she punched out of work, she headed to the basement parking lot. Warren was waiting beside the


    car for her.


    “Ms. Craw, you''ve finished work?" Warren asked and opened the rear door of the car.


    “Yes. Thank you." Luca bent down and got into the car. Then, she closed the car door. The fruit basket


    was ced on her thighs steadily.


    Warren sat in the driver''s seat. He fastened the seat belt and asked, "Would you like to go home now?"


    Home...


    Luca''s lips curled a little. That was her home.


    "Yes. Send me home please," said Luca. The adults had started working, but the schools were not


    open yet. The kids must miss her. Besides, Vivian would be waiting for her too. She wondered what


    Vivian would do to kill time.


    The phone in her pocket vibrated for a moment. Luca picked it up and nced at it. It was a message


    from Luke.


    [Have you gotten off work?]


    [Yes. I just got into the car.] Luca gently tapped on the phone screen and replied.


    [Stay safe. I''ll be working overtime at the office today. Don''t wait for me for dinner.] Luke replied to her


    message soon.


    [Okay.] Luca ced her phone back into her pocket after the message was sessfully sent.


    It seemed like they had a bond of understanding between them. When Luca knew Luke would not reply


    to her message, he truly would not reply.


    Hence, the phone that was in her pocket no longer rang while she was on her way back.


    When she arrived at the gate and Warren was about to swipe the card to enter, Luca noticed a man


    standing beside the car.


    She quickly said, "Warren, wait!"


    "Ms. Craw, what''s the matter?" Warren looked at her with confusion through the rearview mirror.


    Nothing had happened when they were on the way here, but Luca''s tone of voice made him worried.


    "I saw someone familiar. Park the car beside the road first. Don''t block the entrance," said Luca.


    "Okay, Ms. Craw." Warren reversed the car and parked the car at the temporary parking lot beside the


    street.


    Luca ced the fruit basket on the empty seat beside her, pushed the door open, and prepared to get


    out of the car.


    "Ms. Craw, be careful," reminded Warren.


    "It''s okay. He''s someone I know. He won''t hurt me." Luca smiled and bent down to get out of the car.
