Chapter 1402

Luke looked at Luca, who was deep in thought. He did not know what she was thinking.

Ding! The elevator arrived at the basement parking lot.

Luca came to her senses. She wanted to refuse Luke’s offer, but Luke had already walked away. She had no other choice but to walk behind him.

She could not treat Luke like how she treated other men. Those tricks did not work on Luke.

Luca eventually caught up to Luke, and they walked to Luke’s car together. She was about to open one of the doors at the back and sit inside when Luke said, “I’m not your driver. Come and sit next to me.”

Luke had interrupted her before she could open the door.

She felt a little dejected, but this was not the time for her to hesitate. She did not want anyone else to see her, so she lowered her head, went to the side passenger seat, and sat down.

She had just fastened her seatbelt when Luke started the car and drove away.

It was the evening rush hour. If they were unlucky, their car would have to stop every few feet.

She mouthed a silent prayer for smooth traffic.

“Are you feeling nervous?” Luke noticed that she had been deliberately keeping her breathing even. He, Percy, Gale, and Rain knew how to do that.

It was a technique they had learned in their physical training to alleviate their minds from too much stress.

He did not think that Luca would have undergone the same physical training that he did, but she controlled her breathing so naturally. Luke entertained the idea of sparring with her to see how good of

a fighter she was.

His words brought her back to reality. She shook her head and said, “I’m not nervous.”

Luke took a detour when he reached the intersection ahead because he knew that the road in front would be congested. “Tommy said that you’re a good fighter.”

Luca was taken aback. “I’m a single woman living alone. I learned some self-defense techniques to protect myself.”

“I’d like to see for myself.” Luke drove the car into a narrow alley that was only slightly wider than his car. He continued to drive straight as though he was not bothered.

Luca turned her head away. Did Luke say that he wanted to fight her?

She knew that Luke would rather not get physical whenever possible. Why would he want to fight her? Things were not looking good for her.

“You saw me fight in New York, didn’t you? I’m not very good at fighting,” Luca said, feeling a little nervous even though she knew that Luke was a skilled driver. Text content © .

Luke nodded. “I think that you’re better than that, just like how I think that you’re more than meets the eye.”

Luca’s heart skipped a beat, but she did not express her anxiety on her face. She said, “What do you mean, Mr. Crawford? Do you think that I’m hiding something from you? For example, could I have hidden my true face?”

Luke could tell that she was deliberately twisting the meaning of his words. The impostor Bianca had hidden her true face and managed to deceive him.

Could someone have changed his beloved Bianca’s face and put her next to him?

Luke thought that the idea was laughable. If the real Bianca was indeed by his side, why would she not tell him so?

He knew that Bianca loved him. If the scenario he thought had really happened, the only explanation was that Bianca hated him.

“Have you?” Luke asked, deciding to go straight to the point.

Luca looked straight ahead, and her hands slowly clenched into fists. “I don’t think that’s any of your concern, Mr. Crawford. My appearance does not affect my work performance.”

Luke suddenly smiled. “Indeed,” he said.

Luca did not know what to feel when she saw Luke’s reaction. She realized that she should not have mentioned changing her face, and she began to regret her choice.

That must have reminded Luke about the impostor Bianca…

The car drove smoothly across the narrow alley, went through two intersections, and arrived at Tommy’s school.

Luke parked the car at the roadside and unfastened his seatbelt. “I’ll go pick Tommy up. Wait in the car.”

“Alright,” Luca nodded and said.

Luke opened the car door and walked toward the front gate of the school.

Luca watched as he walked away. She could sense the man’s charm even when his back was facing her.

Even the people walking on the street could not help but turn their heads to look at him. If Luke had become a movie star instead of a CEO, he would be famous worldwide.

Luca shook her head and cleared her thoughts. What was she thinking? Why did she fantasize about Luke becoming a movie star?

She covered her face in embarrassment. Indeed, Luke was beginning to take over her thoughts…

Five minutes later, Luke walked down the street while holding Tommy’s hand. He opened the car door, and Tommy stepped inside.

He grinned when he realized that Luca was in the car. “You’re here too, Ms. Luca! I didn’t believe it when Daddy told me about it earlier.”

“Mm. Your Daddy happens to be driving in the same direction.” Luca turned her head and smiled gently at the little boy.

Tommy nodded and said, “You should let Daddy drive you home every day, Ms. Luca. Cabs can be stinky sometimes. Daddy’s car is much more comfortable.”

“Ah, I don’t mind taking a cab though,” Luca said. She noticed that Luke was fastening his seatbelt, so she turned her head around and looked straight to the front.

Tommy grinned. “But Daddy’s driving in the same direction, isn’t it?”

Luca kneaded her hands and pretended not to hear what the boy said.

Tommy continued, “Daddy, do you want to have dinner with Ms. Luca and me tonight?”

“Mm,” Luke replied as he started driving. He drove very carefully because he was still within the school zone.

Tommy clapped his hands and said, “That’s great! I’m glad that you get to taste Ms. Luca’s cooking again, Daddy. Too bad Lanie and Rainie need to stay back in school today. They say that they miss Ms. Luca’s cooking too.”

Luca was willing to cook dinner for Lanie and Rainie, but if Luke did not say anything, she did not think it was appropriate to suggest it.

Other people might think that she was using the children to gain Luke’s affection, and she did not want Luke to get that impression.

However, she still had to reply to Tommy’s statement. “Really? Do Lanie and Rainie miss my cooking?”

Tommy nodded. “Every night when I get home, Rainie would ask me what I ate at your house, and Lanie would be listening attentively.”

Luca sighed discreetly. “I see. I’d love to cook for them if I have the chance,” she said.
