Chapter 1574

Luca opened the door, only to see Old Master Crawford and Uncle Zander standing outside the door.

She asked with surprise, “Old Master Crawford, you're here?"

Old Master Crawford smiled and entered the house. He looked like he was familiar with the place as he immediately walked to the couch and sat down. He looked around at the furnishings in the house. "What a nice place you have here, Luca."

Luca stroked the back of her head. She was a little confused about what was going on now. "Uh, it's Mr. Crawford's house."

"It was Luke who made it the employee residence for you, right?" Old Master Crawford pointed at the coffee table in front of him, signaling Uncle Zander to put the things here.

"Yes," replied Luca as she watched Uncle Zander move bags of stuff to the coffee table. What was going on?

Old Master Crawford said, "Since Luke let you stay in here, then it's considered your house. Oh, come over and sit here. Take a look at what I got you."

Luca sat down. She was a little uncomfortable with the old master treating her so enthusiastically. "Uh, Old Master Crawford, you could've just visited without bringing so many things..."

"These are for you. They're not much. Luke has already looked into what you told him yesterday, so I'm here today to send you some gifts. I owe you a favor, after all." Old Master Crawford took some imported fruits and other supplements out from the bags.

"I noticed Louis' mother usually takes these to nourish her body. You can have some too." Old Master Crawford was enthusiastic. He took everything out and put them on the table.

Luca smiled awkwardly when she saw the supplements all over the table.

Old Master Crawford asked when he saw her wearing an apron. "Are you making breakfast?"

"Yes. Have you eaten?" After being reminded, Luca remembered that she was supposed to make a sumptuous breakfast to reward herself.

Old Master Crawford had breakfast before he came here, but he recalled Tommy mentioning that Luca was pretty good at cooking.

"I came out too early and haven't had breakfast. Why don't you make a portion for me too?" he smiled and asked. Belongs to - All rights reserved.

Uncle Zander was standing there trying hard to not laugh out loud. It had been a long time since Old Master Crawford behaved like this.

Previously, he always put on a serious expression on his face to call the shots in the Crawford family. He made everyone afraid to speak another word. It seemed like he was more relaxed when he was talking with Luca.

Luca did not expect the old master to make himself at home here. Although it had been three years, she remembered that Old Master Crawford always woke up early. Hence, the cook in Crawford Manor would always prepare breakfast for him quite early in the morning.

He should have already eaten breakfast at this hour.

However, since the old master said so, Luca stood up and smiled gently. “Sure. Please sit here with Uncle Zander for a while. I'll prepare breakfast."

"Ms. Craw..." When Uncle Zander heard that she was going to make breakfast for him too, he was about to tell her not to. However, Old Master Crawford interrupted him and said, "Alright, alright."

After Luca walked into the kitchen, Uncle Zander lowered his voice and said, "Old Master Crawford, I've had breakfast."

"I know." Old Master Crawford picked up the remote control on the coffee table and switched on the television. "I heard this woman has impressive culinary skills. Let's have a taste of her cooking together."

"Alright, Old Master Crawford." Uncle Zander let out a sigh in his heart. He realized for the first time that Old Master Crawford was such a gluttonous person.

Luca stood in the kitchen and looked at the ingredients in the fridge. She had to make breakfast for another two people. The ingredients that she took out just now were certainly not enough.

Fortunately, she had bought more ingredients since she used the errand service last night. Hence, the fridge was filled with ingredients.

Luca took some of the ingredients out. She knew Old Master Crawford's preferences. She made him a Western-style breakfast and some sandwiches for herself.

She was craving sandwiches today.

She served breakfast on the table and called out, "Old Master Crawford, Uncle Zander, breakfast is ready."

Old Master Crawford stood up and came to the dining table. He looked at the sumptuous breakfast and gave her a thumbs up. "It looks great. I didn't expect you to be so good at cooking at such a young age. That explains why Tommy loves your cooking."

Luca served a bowl of oatmeal for the old master, then she gave Uncle Zander a bowl too.

"I added some fruits to the oatmeal. Try some and tell me what you think," she explained. The oatmeal she made was different from the ones outside.

Normally, only cow's milk or yogurt would be added to the oatmeal, but she added some almond milk. It would make the oatmeal taste better. She took into consideration that the old master might have weak teeth, so she intentionally cooked it for a longer time so that it would be softer and easier to chew.

Old Master Crawford took a mouthful of it. The texture of the oatmeal was good when paired with the fruits. He did not need to chew much and the oatmeal would just melt in his mouth.

"It's good. It has a good texture too. It's different from how the others cook it. Very good. Even someone like me who can't chew a lot can have this too." He gave his review. At first, he thought it would be inconvenient for him to eat this when he saw Luca making this, but it was surprisingly suitable for him.

"You can have more if you like. There's some left in the saucepan. Oh, here are some fried eggs. And there are some pancakes too. Enjoy your breakfast." Luca placed the pancakes in front of the old master.

Old Master Crawford looked at the yummy-looking pancakes. If he had not noticed the flour on her hair, he would have thought that she bought them at the grocery store or some breakfast restaurant and reheated them.

“Impressive. What a virtuous woman you are!” Old Master Crawford exclaimed. He cut off a small bite of the pancake and put it in his mouth. His eyes brightened up at once. "Yummy!"

"Have some more if you like it. Why don't I make some more pancakes so that you can bring them back?" Luca thought the kids would love them too if even the old master approved of her culinary skills.

She knew how to make pancakes and waffles. However, she had little time to spend with the kids. She did not have as many chances to make pancakes and waffles for them.

"It's alright. These are enough." Old Master Crawford slightly regretted having taken his breakfast before coming here. Even though the breakfast she made was good, he could only eat that much. He could still eat, but he could not eat much.

Luca smiled. She sat opposite them and took a sip of milk.

Old Master Crawford asked, "Why don't you have some oatmeal too?"

"I've been making oatmeal for the past few days. I wanted to have some sandwiches today. Old Master Crawford, do you want some of my sandwiches?" asked Luca.

Old Master Crawford shook his head. He preferred having pancakes.

The old master thought even higher of Luca when he saw how capable she was. It would be great if Luca and Luke could get together.

At least, she could help him take care of his kids and family.

However, how much longer did Luke need to realize that?
