‘Who is she?’

Luke had some doubts in his heart. Before he could ask, Wendy introduced herself. “Mr. Crawford, what a coincidence. I didn’t expect that a busy person like you would have the time to take care of your children in the hospital.”

“Mm.” He only gave a short reply when faced with the other party’s enthusiasm.

Wendy felt a little embarrassed. She went to pick up Lydia from school and overheard the teacher discussing Tommy’s situation. She found out that he was sick and hospitalized when she asked for more details.

When she saw Luke at the school event previously, she fell in love with him at first sight. However, she did not manage to bump into him whenever she sent her child to school and picked her up. That was why when she learned that Tommy was sick and hospitalized, she felt that her opportunity had arrived.

After she picked up Lydia, she rushed to the supermarket to buy some ingredients to make chicken soup for Tommy. She then bought a fruit basket and brought everything to the hospital. She just wanted to try her luck and was pleasantly surprised to bump into Luke.

However, his reaction was not promising…

Wendy asked enthusiastically, “Mr. Crawford, would you like some chicken soup? I made it myself. It’s good for both adults and children.”

Lydia, who was at the side, also chimed in, “Yes, my mother’s soup is delicious.” This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

“No, thank you.” Luke did not even look at the flask. Speaking of chicken soup, he had yet to try Luca’s chicken soup. He wondered if it was as delicious as her oats.

Wendy’s smile froze. Neither father nor son accepted her kind gesture as if she was superfluous.

She glanced around the ward and saw no one else there. The woman who stopped them at the door did not seem to be Luke’s wife either. She asked curiously, “By the way, what about Mrs. Crawford? Why isn’t she around?”

She knew that Luke had a wife. For an amazing man like him, even if she could not be his wife, she was more than happy to be his kept lover.

That was why Wendy came here. Of course, it would be better if she could become Mrs. Crawford.

“She’s abroad,” Luke said.

When Wendy heard that, she felt that the opportunity had come. After all, Tommy was sick and hospitalized but his mother was not by his side. She was in a foreign country. It seemed that she did not care about her children…

She said, “In that case, aren’t you tired from having to take care of your children by yourself while having to go to work? If you don’t mind, I can—”

“The children are taken care of by a nanny, so don’t you worry.” Luke interrupted her mercilessly before she could finish her sentence.

It was not that he did not understand what she meant. He just did not care for this kind of woman.

Wendy was a little embarrassed that she was interrupted. ‘It’s impossible that a man as smart as him isn’t aware of my intentions. Is there no chance for me?’

She spent so much money to send Lydia to such an expensive school just to get a chance. It took her some time to find someone like Luke. She did not want to let it go without a fight.

“Yes, it’ll save a lot of trouble to have a nanny to take care of the kids, but it’s better to take care of the children ourselves. In fact, I wanted to let you know that I have a lot of free time, so if you want—”

Before Wendy finished speaking, she was interrupted by the nanny. “Hello, Ms. Wendy, I’m the one who usually takes care of Young Master Tommy. I know all of Young Master Tommy’s likes and dislikes. I can take good care of him.”

“Yes, yes.” Tommy replied, “Aunt takes care of me very well. My father is usually very busy, so she’s the one who takes care of me. Thanks to her, I grew up safe and healthy.”

They could all tell that Wendy was interested in Luke and knew where Luke stood on this matter. As such, they were not afraid that they would offend Luke when they said this.

After all, the nanny had seen a lot of women like this, while Tommy had met even more.

It was all wishful thinking if these women thought being nice to his kids would get Luke to take another look at them.

The nanny did not have a good impression of Wendy. If they were to choose a new wife for Luke, Luca would still be the most suitable choice.

After all, she had never offended anyone or insinuated that she was not taking good care of the kids.

Some would think Wendy was praising her but others would think that she was telling Luke that the nanny was not doing a good job.

Wendy was speechless when she heard their replies.

What else could she say? Although she felt embarrassed, she still got useful intel, which was that Mrs. Crawford did not take care of the family and children well.

As long as she made use of her strengths, she still had a chance…

After all, all men liked virtuous women…

Lydia was young but she knew a lot. Seeing her mother so embarrassed, she said, “Uncle, can I come and play with Tommy? We’re close classmates. I’m sure he’s bored in the hospital, so I want to come and play with him. Is it okay?”

Lydia hated Tommy. She always felt that he was too rich and incompatible with her.

However, Wendy had instilled certain ideas in her since she was a child. She knew that she still needed to do this if she wanted to live a better life in the future.

Before Luke could answer, Tommy said, “No need for that. I’ll be discharged from the hospital the day after tomorrow, and the hospital isn’t boring at all. I have Ms. Luca with me and I have cartoons to keep me entertained.”

Wendy was stunned and wondered how such a cute kid could be so difficult. However, she did not ask who Ms. Luca was. She just thought that Ms. Luca was one of his nannies.

Before she came, she had found out all that she could about the Crawford family. She knew exactly how many children Luke had.

Wendy lowered her head and exchanged glances with her daughter, feeling that their trip here was pointless. When she was about to say something, Luke’s phone vibrated.

He clicked on his phone, looked at the text sent by Gale, and stood up.

Wendy looked at him and kept thinking about topics of conversation. Before she could speak, Luke said, “I’ll be heading off. If there’s nothing else, the two of you should leave.”

“Ah, okay…” When Wendy heard that he was leaving, she knew that it was pointless for her to stay. She nodded and when she was about to leave, Luke said, “Take the fruits and flask with you.”

Wendy said, “Children like fruits, and chicken soup is good for your health.”

“Our family has a cook, so the kids don’t lack either of these. There are already a lot of fruits in the ward. You should take them home with you,” Luke said as he walked out of the ward.

As soon as Wendy heard it, she knew it was pointless to insist any further so she picked up the flask and fruit basket awkwardly.
