Tommy was Luca''s child. She knew what it meant when she heard that.
Luca noticed the hesitancy in his voice. She could not help but keep a straight face. “Did you get
yourself into trouble?"
"I didn''t..." Tommy sounded a little upset. He did not want to make this call, but the teacher insisted on
asking his guardian toe to school.
If Tommy asked his father toe to school, it was inevitable that he would be lectured when he went
back home.
Besides, his father was busy with work.
Hence, Tommy discussed it with his teacher. His teacher knew who his father was too. Thus, the
teacher agreed that it would be fine as long as it was his guardian.
Tommy dared not to look for his great-grandpa either. He had no choice but to call her.
After all, Luca was his mother!
"Tell your teacher that I''ll be there in 30 minutes." Luca nced at the time and assumed that it would
take 20 minutes for her to reach Tommy''s school.
"Okay, Ms. Luca. I''ll be waiting for you." Something crossed Tommy''s mind as he added, "Oh, Ms.
Luca, don''t tell Daddy."
Tommy was afraid of getting lectured.
"Let me see what''s going on at school first." Luca did not promise him.
Even though Tommy was her son, Luca''s identity was not Bianca now.
If Tommy did something wrong, she would still have to lecture him.
It was just that she was in no position to do that now. Luke had to be the one educating and lecturing
the kids. That was why Luca did not agree to Tommy''s request.

"Alright. I''ll be waiting for you." Tommy hung up the call.
Luca gave Warren a call.
"Ms. Craw, I''m at the parking lot. If you need me to drive you somewhere else, juste down."
Warren did not wait for Luca to speak and went straight to the point.
Luca was startled for a moment. "Okay, I''ming down now."
After that, Luca took off herb coat, put on her winter coat, and left the office.
Luca did not know how long she would take. Hence, she walked into the assistant''s office and said,
“Ms. Stone, I''d like to take some time off."
"Sure, Dr. Craw. How long?" Mo Stone took the leave slip out.
"Just one morning. Let me sign it. Please help me write down that I''m applying for a personal leave,"
answered Luca as she wrote down her name on the leave slip. Then, she turned around and left.
Mo Stone looked at Luca''s leave slip and shook her head. She immediately wrote down the reason
Luca took the leave—''temporarily away.''
After she filled in the time, she kept the slip in the file. She would have to wait until the end of the month
before handing it to the HR department.
Luca went into the elevator and came to the basement parking lot. Warren was waiting beside the car.
He opened the car door when he saw her walking toward him and let her get into the car.
Luca bent down and got into the car. Then, she said to Warren, "Head to Tommy''s school."
"Okay, Ms. Luca." Warren fastened his seatbelt and headed straight to the school.
"Anyway, have you been here the whole while?" Luca asked.
"Yes. I''m your chauffeur now. Ms. Rain didn''t assign me other jobs either. My job is to stay put and
send you to your destination at any time," answered Warren. He dared not to leave the spot as he was
worried that such situations would ur when Luca was at work. Sometimes, he would go farther
away, but he woulde back within five minutes.
Moreover, what Luca did not know was that Luke had even set up an office for Warren in Watson
Biopharmaceuticals. It was for Luca''s convenience whenever she needed to head somewhere else.
Hence, it was also convenient for Warren.
"I hope Matysh''s matter can be settled soon..." Luca mumbled to herself. She had brought a lot of
trouble to the people around her because of it.
Once the matter was settled, they would not be so busy dealing with it anymore.
Warren knew what Luca had in mind. He deliberately changed the subject of the conversation. "Ms.
Luca, why are you suddenly heading to Young Master Tommy''s school? Is he in trouble?"
"I''m not sure either. Tommy told me that his teacher would like to meet his guardian. He dares not
disturb Mr. Crawford. That''s why he called me," answered Luca.
"Even though Young Master Tommy is a little naughty, he seldom causes any trouble," said Warren.
"Let''s see what the teacher says. It''s normal for kids to have disagreements and fight with each other."
Luca smiled. Although Tommy was active and yful, he knew he should not cause any trouble.
There must be a misunderstanding.
The car drew to a halt as they arrived at Tommy''s school.
Luca told the security guard standing at the entrance her identity. Then, the guard led her toward the
teacher''s office.
Luca was d that she had seen what ss Tommy was in when she was looking through Tommy''s
homework.
Otherwise, she would not have known how to answer the guard when he asked her some questions.
"Miss, here''s Mrs. Tuffey''s office," said the guard.
Mrs. Tuffey was Tommy''s homeroom teacher.
“Okay. Thank you." Luca pushed the office door open. Mrs. Tuffey and another parent were there.
“You''re..." Mrs. Tuffey could not help but ask with confusion when she saw Luca.
"Hello, Mrs. Tuffey. I''m Tommy''s rtive. His father couldn''t make it. That''s why I''m here." As Luca
walked into the office, she noticed the annoyed expression on the parent''s face.
It seemed like Tommy had fought with that person''s child.
Luca frowned slightly. She knew this would be difficult to deal with just by looking at the expression on
the parent''s face.
“Oh, you''re Tommy''s guardian. Please take a seat." Mrs. Tuffey pointed at another chair that was a
distance away from where the other parent was seated.
She was probably worried that they might argue with each other.
“Alright. Thank you." Luca thanked her and sat up straight in the chair.
Mrs. Tuffey asked with curiosity, “I''ve never seen you before. You''re Tommy''s.."
“Aunt." Luca made up an excuse.
"Oh, I see. You''re his aunt. Here''s the thing, the reason why I asked you toe today is that Tommy
and Charlie fought with each other during ss. Charlie knocked his forehead on the desk when
Tommy pushed him," exined Mrs. Tuffey.
“Is the child seriously injured?" Luca asked.
“No. The school nurse examined him and said that it was just a graze."
Mrs. Hudson yelped immediately after Mrs. Tuffey said that. “What do you mean by it''s not serious?
Mrs. Tuffey, you can''t say something like that. He was bleeding! Besides, the school nurse said that it
might affect his brain. Isn''t that serious enough?"
Mrs. Tuffey exined to her patiently, “Madam, the school nurse said that it''d take a few days for the
wound to heal. As for whether or not Charlie''s brain is injured, isn''t Charlie in the hospital having a
medical examination now? Let''s wait until the test results are out and we''ll discuss this."
“Charlie is in the hospital now. I think that this is all very fishy. Do you know each other? Are both of
you, by any chance, rted? Why are you taking her side?" Mrs. Hudson had a loud voice. Her saliva
sprayed out as she talked.
Luca frowned and said, “Mrs. Tuffey, is it really Tommy who hurt him?"
Before Mrs. Tuffey could say anything, Mrs. Hudson piped in, "If it wasn''t your child, then who could
have hurt Charlie? You''re responsible for this. The child is already doing such terrible things at such a
young age. He might grow up a murderer or a criminal. I don''t care. Charlie is still in the hospital now.
We''re waiting for you to pay for Charlie''s medical examination. You have topensate for his injury."
"I believe the child would never hurt anyone," Luca spoke in a serious tone when Mrs. Hudson acted
like an unreasonable shrew. She turned to look at Mrs. Tuffey. "Mrs. Tuffey, are there any surveince
cameras at the scene?"
