Chapter 1143 He Thought He Would Get To See Luca More Often
"Even if I already have a godmother, I can still have a few more." Tommy was puzzled.
"Don’t you think that you’re being too reckless about this? She’s your father's employee. If she becomes your godmother, the hierarchy will be messed up." Bianca resolutely refused, the hostility in her heart growing more intense.
Ivana was picking a fight with her. It seemed that she was going to take away not only Luke but also the children.
She would never let this happen. If she failed the mission, she would be dead within minutes upon returning to the Island of Despair!
Tommy pouted and said in a dissatisfied tone, "Why does it matter? Aunt Nina is my godmother and she’s also Dad’s employee."
Luke noticed Bianca's resistance and said, "She has to agree to be your godmother before we can do that. We’ll talk about it later."
Tommy pouted and glanced at the photo. He then sat back and replied," Okay, I’ll ask Aunt Luca when the time comes. I'm sure she’ll agree."
Bianca was furious when she heard Tommy’s reply. She shook her head, stood up, and took her phone. Her face was pale as she said, "I'm feeling a little sick, I'm going upstairs."
Luke watched Bianca go upstairs and had no intention to accompany her. He just sat there.
"Great-grandpa, Dad, we’re going upstairs too." Lanie noticed that the atmosphere was awkward, so he jumped off the sofa and left with his siblings.
Old Master Crawford and Luke were the only ones left in the living room.
Old Master Crawford picked up his teacup and sighed. "Luke, except for Bianca, you’ve never been so concerned about any other woman before."
Old Master Crawford knew his grandson well. He was certain that Luke would not make an exception to send this woman home just because the
woman had once saved Tommy.
"Grandpa, I know what I’m doing," Luke said with a calm expression.
Seeing that Luke was not avoiding the topic, Old Master Crawford said, "I believe that. However, I've mentioned to you before that I hope you won't follow in your father's footsteps. The Crawford family had to go through so much for the peace that we have today. I don't want anything to happen again. You haven't made me worry about anything for so many years. I believe you'll handle it well this time too.” "Alright, you don't need to worry about anything," Luke said.
When Old Master Crawford heard his reply, he nodded, grabbed his cane, and wanted to go back to the bedroom to rest. Before he left, he thought about it for a second and then said, "By the way, you don't need to transfer money to the reporter for this matter." "I know." Luke nodded. He had not done anything wrong, so he would not transfer money to the reporter to cover up this issue.
The more he tried to hide things, the more others would think that there was something to it. The reporter would pay more attention to this matter and it would eventually lead to unnecessary trouble.
Moreover, even if the reporter made the photos public, he still had a set of arguments to shut the public up.
After Old Master Crawford returned to his bedroom, Luke did not continue to sit in the living room and went upstairs.
He glanced at the closed bedroom door. Instead of knocking on it, he turned around and went into Tommy's bedroom.
Tommy was sitting at his desk, reading a book.
"Dad?" He heard footsteps and looked back at Luke.
Luke nodded and closed the bedroom door. He walked over to him before sitting down.
Tommy had been back for a few days and the tension between them had eased.
"Tommy, tell me what happened that day," Luke asked.
"Are you talking about Aunt Luca?" Tommy closed his book and looked at him.
Luke nodded.
Tommy had not told him about the events that happened after he ran away from home. He only blurted it out because of what had happened. Seeing that things were out in the open, Tommy told Luke everything.
After he shared the full story, he said, "Aunt Luca is a good person and she’s a great cook! Dad, can I go to her place for dinner in the future?" "If she doesn't mind, you can," Luke said. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Tommy clapped his hands happily. Before this, he did not dare to tell Luke who took him in for fear that he would object to them meeting again. Now that he agreed, Tommy was overjoyed.
"That's great! I'll bring Lanie and Rainie too!" Tommy thought of what Bianca said in the living room and asked, "Dad, does she work in your company?" "Yes, it’s her first day tomorrow." Luke touched his
head.
Tommy blinked and said excitedly, "Then, can I ask for a leave of absence tomorrow to go to your company to play with her?" "No." Luke rejected him. He knew what Tommy was thinking. "She doesn't work in the headquarters. It's best if you go to school obediently."
Tommy pouted and said, "It's a pity."
He thought he would get to see Luca more often.
Luke touched his head, glanced at the time, and said, "It's getting late, get some rest." "Okay!" Tommy nodded and jumped off the chair. He thought of something else and said, "By the way, Dad, don't investigate Aunt Luca. She’s a good person who doesn't want to be disturbed." "How do you know about that?" Luke looked at his son.
"After she sent me downstairs, she stood in the distance and watched me walk to the security guard. She didn’t personally send me over. She’s a
good person and doesn't want to be harassed," Tommy explained, "I knew that Great-grandpa would scold you if I didn't say anything just now. If it weren't forthat, I wouldn't have told you that Aunt Luca is my savior." "Savior?" Luke raised an eyebrow.
"When I was hungry, Aunt Luca fed me." Tommy immediately changed his story. He almost broke out in a cold sweat.
If Luke found out that he was in danger previously, he would never be left alone!
Since he came back, two bodyguards had been assigned to follow him whenever he left the house. If Luke found out that he was in danger before bumping into Aunt Luca, he would be followed by a dozen bodyguards in the future instead of two.
He did not want that to happen!
"Okay, good night," Luke said.
After Luke left, Tommy immediately locked his bedroom door and turned on his tablet. He planned to inform Luca.
However, the video call rang for a long time without Luca answering it.
Tommy pouted and muttered, "Aunt Luca, what are you up to?"
He made another video call but she still did not pick up. Tommy glanced at the time and saw that it was late. If he did not go to bed now, he would not be able to get up tomorrow.
He gave up and had no choice but to turn off the lights and go to bed.
After Luke left Tommy’s bedroom, he walked to the study.
The study was in his bedroom, and Bianca stayed alone in the master bedroom. As soon as he sat down, Bianca knocked on the door and walked in.
"Luke, are you busy?"
Luke looked at the woman standing at the door. She did not walk in as if she was afraid of disturbing him. Her eyes were red from crying, and she looked like a poor little rabbit.
