Luca guessed that it was because Luke thought that the coffee on the high-speed train was bad…
He was such a picky man.
After Jason put down the items that Luke requested, he walked to the seat behind and sat down. Luca thought about it for a while, then picked up her phone and sent Jason a text.
[Mr. Doyle, can I switch places with you?]
The signal on the high-speed train was slow, so it took a while for Luca’s text to get through.
After a while, Jason replied: [Dr. Craw, your seat is great. It’s by the window and you get to see the nice view outside.]
Luca glanced at the scenery outside and thought that it was nice, but she could not relax if the man beside her was Luke.
He was not a cat, and she was not a mouse. However, whenever she was with Luke, she was like a mouse hiding from a cat. She wanted nothing more than to be hidden in front of him.
He loved her so much but she was destined to hurt him in the future…
Luca looked at the receding scenery outside the train window and was deep in thought.
‘Will he be sad if he finds out that the former Bianca is no longer around? Yeah, he likely will…’ Belongs to - All rights reserved.
Luca thought that if nothing had changed, she would be snuggling up to Luke as he looked at his files. Meanwhile, she would enjoy the scenery outside the window.
Life was peaceful back then. Everything was wonderful with him by her side.
Luke shut a document he had reviewed and picked up the thermos next to him.
Luca was taken aback by his sudden movement. She turned her face sideways, and her eyes met his.
Luke noticed the sadness in her eyes.
‘Is she sad? What is she feeling sad about?’
Luke asked, “What are you thinking about?”
“Nothing, I just feel like the train is a little stuffy…” Luca made up a random excuse. She felt out of sorts when she thought about the past.
There was no way she could hide her physical reflexes. Luke must have noticed her red eyes…
‘Stuffy?’
Luke thought that she was just not used to the high-speed train. “You’ll feel better in a while.”
“Yeah.” Luca lowered her gaze and replied to Jason’s text.
[You can help Mr. Crawford with his work if you’re seated here. It’s great because you don’t have to walk around.] Luca continued to persuade him when she saw that Jason was unwilling to change seats with her.
Jason merely replied: [Dr. Craw, these seats are fixed.]
When Luca was about to reply that they were allowed to change seats in the high-speed train, she stopped typing halfway through.
‘When he said that it’s fixed, does he mean that Luke was the one who arranged to sit here?’
Luca put her phone back on the table and thought about the possibilities…
‘Why would Luke do this? Is he intending to monitor me even on such a short journey?’
Luca’s phone vibrated. She picked it up and saw that it was a string of garbled characters.
This was their special password. She quickly translated it and understood that they already knew she was going to leave A City. They reminded her that even if she left A City, she was still within their surveillance range. She should not mess around.
