Luca wondered if she could go to a smaller hotel and check in with Luke’s ID.
After all, the management of small hotels was not as strict. She could get a room even if she did not have her ID card.
Luca lowered her head and wanted to find a small hotel nearby but suddenly felt dizzy.
Her concussion symptoms were not completely gone.
Luke noticed her actions and said in a breezy tone, “Stop moving around.”
The feeling of dizziness made her uncomfortable, so Luca did not dare to move. She obediently leaned on the passenger’s seat and looked ahead. She was afraid that she might faint in the car so she did not even dare to look out of the car window.
Luke drove the car to a community near T Corporation.
Luca knew that this community was developed by T Corporation and Luke had an apartment there.
She had no choice but to go along with Luke’s arrangement.
The car entered the apartment building and Luke drove to the parking lot downstairs. After he parked the car, he took out the wheelchair from the trunk.
Luca got into the wheelchair with his help.
Despite the unwillingness in her heart, she was brought upstairs by Luke.
She saw him press the code on the lock and the door to the apartment was opened. Luca lowered her gaze and asked softly, “Mr. Crawford, is this too troublesome for you?”
“No trouble at all.” Luke walked in with the wheelchair and glanced at the living room. The long-term maid who was responsible for cleaning the place was not there. He said, “There’s a long-term maid here. She must have gone out to buy groceries. You can stay here for a few days and have her take care of you.”
A maid was tasked to take care of her, not him…
Luca was glad. She could not imagine if he was to take care of her…
When she had this idea, she laughed at herself. ‘He already has someone he’s romantically interested in. Why would he take care of me?’
“Okay, thank you,” Luca said.
With Luke pressuring them, the police should wrap things up very quickly and her would be released soon. She only needed to stay at his place for two days.
Luke glanced at the master bedroom. It was a bachelor’s apartment that had one master bedroom and a maid’s room.
The maid room was occupied by the maid, so only the master bedroom was available.
If he worked late and did not have an extra set of clothes in the office, he would come to stay for one night and change into a set of clean clothes.
He did not visit often but the master bedroom had all of his belongings.
Luke was a territorial man. At that moment, he thought about how Luca would occupy his place and rest on his bed. The space would be full of her but he did not feel disgusted at all.
He pushed Luca to the center of the living room, touched his chin, and said, “You can stay in the master bedroom. List down the personal items you need. The maid will get them for you when she comes back.”
There were no women’s items in his apartment. Luca would have to buy everything she needed for her stay.
“Okay.” Luca agreed but remembered that she had no money on her.
Her wallet was still in the apartment. ‘Where can I find the money to buy daily necessities? I don’t even have enough for a set of clothes…’
When Luca was thinking about that, the living room door opened and the maid walked in with some grocery bags. She was stunned when she saw Luke and Luca.
“Sir, you’re here.” The maid greeted him immediately after she snapped out of it. Luke rarely showed up during the day. He was usually here early in the morning. This time, he even arrived with a woman. The maid could not help but have suspicions.
Luke nodded and introduced Luca, “This is Ms. Luca. She’ll be staying here for a couple of days. Do take care of her.”
The maid looked at the woman in the wheelchair and thought that she was beautiful. However, she was not sure why Luca was sitting in a wheelchair and obeyed the orders given by the boss. She nodded and said, “Okay, Boss. Hello, Ms. Luca.”
“Hello.” Luca nodded as a greeting.
Luke’s phone rang, he glanced at it, picked it up in front of her, and said, “Wait for me in the office.” Belongs to - All rights reserved.
His tone was not warm but Luca thought of Tia.
Tia’s car was in the underground parking lot the day prior. She went to visit Luke.
‘Is this call also from Tia?’
Luca felt stuffy as if there was no window open in the room. She was sad but she could not express any sadness or possessiveness toward Luke.
Emotions that could not be expressed could only be suppressed.
The suppression made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
Luca lowered her gaze, trying to keep calm.
After Luke put his phone away. He glanced at the maid, took out a credit card from his wallet, and handed it to her. “She doesn’t have any daily necessities. Go to the mall later to pick up some things for her, including clothing.”
“Yes, Sir.” The maid took the card quickly.
Luke looked at Luca, whose head was lowered. All he could see from this angle was the top of her head.
He was not sure why but he felt her grievance. ‘Is it because she can’t go home?’
Luke’s tone was slightly lighter as he said, “If you have preferred brands, just tell the maid.”
“Mm, thank you, Mr. Crawford.” Luca’s tone was exceptionally cold and polite.

Luke listened and felt a sense of sullenness in his chest. His warmth was not returned in kindness but he did not pay attention to it. He said, “I’ll go back to the office now. If there’s anything you need, call me.”
“Okay, Mr. Crawford.” Luca’s choice of words made it clear that she did not want to get close to him.
The maid felt weird about their conversation but knew that it was not her place to ask what was going on. After all, her boss’ privacy was not something that she, as a maid, could probe.
After Luke left, the maid closed the door and took out a small notepad. She respectfully asked, “Ms. Luca, what daily necessities do you need?”
After Luca listed them down, she shared her measurements and asked the maid to buy a few sets of clothes.
The maid sighed after noting it down. “Ms. Luca, your figure is admirable.”
Luca smiled. Women like to be praised and she was no exception. However, her sadness was so overwhelming that her emotions still appeared relatively calm on the surface.
The maid realized that she had said too much. She cleared her throat and asked, “Ms. Luca, what are your requirements in terms of clothes selection?”
“There’s no requirement as long as the fabric is comfortable. It doesn’t need to be too expensive. Remember to ask for a receipt so that I can keep track of how much I owe Mr. Crawford,” Luca said. She would not spend extravagantly using Luke’s card.
The maid was stunned.
‘Keeping track of the expenses? Does this mean that she would return every single cent of Luke’s money spent?’
It was the first time the maid saw a woman keeping track while spending a man’s money. Initially, she thought they might be in an improper relationship. However, she soon thought otherwise.
