Chapter 1758

"Brother?" Luke stopped working.

"Yes, I heard that it's a man with European features." Jason had not realized the problem and continued with his report.

Luke's mood sank. She told him the day before that Amur would be back and she ended up having a meal with him as soon as he returned...

'She's that excited? Doesn't she know that besides me, all other men are trash? How could she have dinner with that man...'

Jason noticed Luke's gloomy expression and realized that he was in trouble.

He hurriedly said, "Boss, if there's nothing else, I'll be heading off to attend to some tasks."

"Wait a minute." Luke stopped Jason, who desperately wanted to leave.

"Boss, what can I do for you?" Jason turned around with a serious expression. He looked like he was ready to make a noble sacrifice.

"When Luca comes back, get her to come into my office," Luke ordered.

"Will do." Jason breathed a sigh of relief. He felt fortunate that Luke did not pick on him even though he was in a bad mood. He hurriedly left Luke's office seeing that all was well.

When Luca returned to the office after lunch, she noticed that Jason was standing in front of her office. He was even working on a document so that he could be productive while waiting.

"Mr. Doyle, why are you here?" She hurriedly stepped forward. She thought that it was likely Jason was waiting here for her because of work matters, hence she hurriedly opened the door.

"Dr. Craw, I'm here for you." Jason's words confirmed what she had in mind.

"I was downstairs for lunch. You could've just dropped me a text. Why are you standing here waiting for me?" Luca walked into the office. In T Corporation, Luke was the only one who could order Jason around.

As such, she was surprised to see him standing there just to wait for her.

"I want to stand after sitting for so long. It's nothing to worry about." Jason made up a random excuse.

Luca nodded and thought that it was weird even after he explained himself. "What can I help you with?"

"Yes, I almost forgot! The boss asked to see you. He said you should go to his office after you're done with lunch." Jason relayed Luke's words.

Luca stayed silent for a few seconds. She thought of all the possibilities of why Luke would ask to see her and asked, "Uh, did Mr. Crawford tell you the reason?" "He didn't tell me. Just a head's up, the boss is in a bad mood. Dr. Craw, good luck to you." After Jason finished his sentence, he walked back to his office.

Luke was in a bad mood, so he made Jason wait in front of her office so that he could notify Luca as soon as she came back.

Luca nodded, took a deep breath, walked to the front of the door of Luke's office, and knocked.

"Who is it?" Luke's voice came from inside. He did not allow her to enter directly.

"Mr. Crawford, it's Luca," Luca said.

"Come in," Luke ordered.

Luca opened the door and walked in. She saw the man sitting behind the desk doing his work with piles of papers on the desk. He looked busy.

"Mr. Crawford, I heard you're looking for me?" She walked in and asked, standing one meter away from the desk.

"Get off work on time today and go to the supermarket to get some groceries." Luke did not look up. He did not mention her meal with Amur either.

Although he knew that Amur was not her half-brother, to outsiders, they were siblings. Even if he was discontented, it was not his place to say anything.

He could not let Luca know that he already knew about everything.

"Okay." Luca subconsciously agreed. After she processed what he said, she asked awkwardly, "Mr. Crawford, what do you want me to do with the groceries?"

"The kids heard that you've moved and want to celebrate your move. Get some groceries after you get off work and make a meal for them when you get home. Alternatively, you can call the cleaning lady to buy them as well. She's helping out at the villa now," Luke said. He thought that she would need some help to cook for so many people.

"Okay." Luca agreed. She could not say no when it came to the kids.

Although she could not be there and take care of them all the time, she was willing to make their wishes come true when it was still within her ability to do so.

Luke was not surprised when he heard her response. After all, the kids were her everything. "That's it. You can get back to work." Although he was still unhappy, he asked her to leave.

'Amur wants to take up all her time outside of work as soon as he's back? No way!'

Every second of Luca's time should belong to him and their kids.

Luca heard him, left the office, and closed the door on her way out. copyrighted © content.

Luke looked at the closed office door, picked up his phone, and asked the butler, "How's the progress of what I told you to do?”

After a while, the butler replied, "Young Master Luke, the maid has packed up some daily necessities. Zander will send them over later."

Luke then put down his phone and went back to work.

Luca returned to the office, frowning. 'Why did the children suddenly make such a request?'

She thought about it for a while and still could not figure out why. She sent a list of ingredients to the cleaning lady and asked her to help buy them.

There were no ingredients in the villa as she had just moved in, not even basic seasonings. There would be a lot of things to prepare for the meal she would be cooking later today.

After Luca sent the cleaning lady the list of items, she continued to work.

When it was time to get off work, she did not want to work overtime and immediately packed up the documents to take them home. She planned to continue with work after the children left.

The most important thing to her at that moment was to prepare dinner for the children.

After Luca left the office, she went to the supermarket and bought some ingredients that were not on the list.

She left with a full bag.

At that time, the part-time cleaning lady and the maid of the Crawford family had already cleaned up everything in the villa. Luca walked in and saw the maid. She asked curiously, "Leane, why are you here?"

The maid, Leane, saw that Luca still remembered her and replied with a smile on her face, "Young Master Luke asked me to help you prepare dinner tonight."

Luca nodded. She thought that Luke was worried she would not be able to handle it on her own, so he let Leane come over...

"Sorry to bother you."

Leane took the bag from Luca's hand and said with a smile, "No trouble at all. I'm happy that I can learn from you while assisting you. Ms. Craw, Young Master always praises you for your cooking skills. He talks about it every day. The cook wishes to learn from you as well."

"Is that so? Maybe the dishes I make are more suitable to the children's tastes. There's nothing special about it." Luca smiled. 'Is it because of Tommy?'

"It's almost time, Ms. Craw. Let's cook?" Leane asked.

"Okay, I'll just go put my things down," Luca said and carried her briefcase up to the second floor.
