Chapter 1265 Friend Request

Seeing his pitiful appearance, Luca could not bear to let him starve. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you to breakfast, but after eating, I’ll send you back to Mr. Crawford. Promise me that you won't make a fuss then."

From past experience, Tommy would try his best to stay by her side every time they had to separate. She wanted to cover her ground to make sure that Tommy would not get in the way later because he did not want to leave.

"Okay, Ms. Luca!" Tommy nodded and agreed.

The two left the room together.

Luca brought him to the restaurant downstairs. Rhett, Dr. Albus, and the others were already sitting there eating breakfast.

The hotel that Jason booked for them had a breakfast buffet, so they were all here to fill their stomachs.

"Dr. Craw, good morning." Rhett greeted her because they were sitting near the door.

"Good morning." Luca nodded at them, then took Tommy to the self- service area.

Dr. Albus looked at the scene and could not help but say, "That's Mr.

Crawford's child, right? Why is he with Dr. Craw first thing in the morning?"

They witnessed how close Tommy was to Luca with their own eyes, but it was strange that Luca was with Tommy in the early morning.

'Shouldn't the kid be with Luke? Mr. Crawford hasn't appeared yet Luca showed up with Tommy...’

Dr. Albus exchanged glances with his assistant. They then looked at Rhett at the same time. "Mr. Link, what's going on with Dr. Craw?" "I don't know." Rhett shook his head. He knew about all the bad thoughts in their minds at a glance.

Since Luca showed up with Tommy early in the morning, they must think that she did not sleep in her room last night.

Although they walked out of the elevator together, it was difficult to say what happened after they went into their respective rooms.

"Why don't you go find out? We’re quite curious," Dr. Albus said.

Rhett was scolded by Luca just the day before. He did not dare to trigger her just to satisfy their need to gossip. He shook his head and said, "Dr. Albus, this is Dr. Craw's private matter. It's not my place to ask anything."

Dr. Albus did not push Rhett further, seeing that he turned him down. He did not want to be known as a gossiper.

Luca brought Tommy to take some food that he wanted. She then randomly chose a table.

Tommy took a sip of milk and asked, "Ms. Luca, why aren't you sitting with them?" "It's noisy when many people sit together. Isn't it nice to have a quiet breakfast like this?" Luca said as she took a sip of the coffee.

She was not a fan of crowds. She would not sit with them even if Tommy were not with her.

Tommy nodded in agreement and said, "Ms. Luca is right! Daddy also said that it’s best to keep your mouth shut during a meal."

Luca smiled and touched his head.

Halfway through breakfast, Luke and Jason both appeared in the restaurant.

Dr. Albus and the others stepped forward to greet them before returning to their seats. Dr. Albus exchanged a glance with his assistant. He thought that Luke was great at avoiding suspicion.

Luke and Luca did not appear in the restaurant at the same time. Luke chose to appear with his assistant in the restaurant after Luca arrived so that others would not misunderstand.

Tommy had been following Luca around. Everyone saw how dependent he was on Luca. They thought that she had no choice but to bring him along since he would not part from her.

Tommy made it hard for them to conceal the truth.

Dr. Albus thought that he had seen through the whole thing and felt triumphant. Although Luca's research was great, she was still dependent on men.

Luca lowered her head to eat breakfast silently. After she finished the last sip of her coffee, she looked at Tommy who was sitting across from her. He was done with breakfast.

"Tommy, go to your Daddy," she said.

Tommy did not move and asked, "Ms. Luca, do you need to go to work already?" "Yeah." Luca nodded.

Although Tommy was reluctant, he remembered what he promised her and had no choice but to wave his hand reluctantly. "Ms. Luca, goodbye." "Goodbye." After Luca stood up, Tommy also stood up and walked toward Luke.

"Daddy," Tommy called out to Luke and sat next to him with a flattering smile on his face.

"You’re back?" Luke took a sip of coffee gracefully while frowning.

Even at a six-star hotel, the coffee was nothing beyond average. The best coffee he ever had was prepared by Bianca.

"Daddy, don't be mad... I'm sorry." Tommy could not figure out his mood as there were no ups and downs in his expression. However, he knew he was at fault for leaving the room without Luke’s permission. He had no choice but to apologize obediently.

Luke lifted his gaze and glanced at Tommy, who was trying to please him and reduce his anger. His expression remained neutral.

Tommy touched the back of his head.

Jason wanted to laugh when he saw the father and son act like this, but he could not laugh in front of Luke. Hence, he had to put food in his mouth to divert his attention.

Tommy acted pitifully and tugged on Luke’s sleeve. "Daddy, I was afraid of going to bed by myself... You wouldn't want to sleep with me so I had to find Ms. Luca."

Luke picked up the napkin and wiped the corners of his mouth. He only ate half of the food on his plate and less than a third of the coffee in his cup was drunk.

"Tell her to check her notifications," He said. Text content © .

"Her? Who, Daddy?" Tommy asked, puzzled.

Luke looked at Luca and Tommy instantly knew who he was referring to. There were still 15 minutes before they had to assemble. She stood up and sat down again while sneaking glances at Luke's table.

Tommy nodded and said, "Oh, you're talking about Ms. Luca!"

Luke was speechless.

Tommy went to Luca immediately.

"What's wrong? Did your daddy scold you?" Luca touched his head. She did not hear what they were talking about because she was far away.

Tommy shook his head and said, "Ms. Luca, Daddy asked you to look at your phone."

Luca was speechless as she watched Tommy return to his table. 'He used Tommy to get me to check my phone?'

She took out her phone and was puzzled for a moment. She then remembered Luke's friend request from the night before. 'Is he talking about this?' "Dr. Craw, we're leaving." While she was still hesitating, Rhett walked over and reminded her.

Luca snapped out of it and nodded. Without looking at Luke, she hurriedly followed Rhett and left the restaurant.

Luke kept looking in her direction. After Luca left, he took his phone out of his pocket and unlocked it.

The friend request was still pending.

Luke's expression was stern as he put the phone back in his pocket.

Tommy noticed his shift in mood and asked, "Daddy, what's the matter with you?"
