When Luke drove back home, he saw that the lights were still on.

He knew there was someone waiting for him.

This love that he had been waiting so long for made him feel a surge of warmth in his heart. There were so many others waiting for him to return, yet none of them could provide more warmth than Luca could.

Luke entered the house.

Luca had long heard the noises outside and was sitting on the sofa, waiting for him to enter. If it were in the past, she would definitely be scolded if he saw her sitting on the mat on the floor.

It was as though she did it subconsciously.

Seeing Luke made her feel chilly as though it was cold outside. She then got up and said, "Do you want a cup of warm water, Mr. Crawford?"

"Sure." Luke nodded. The weather was getting colder as the days went by, but with Luca around, he would always be instantly warmed up again.

Fortunately, she still returned to his side even after going through so many incidents.

Looking at Luca's back as she went into the kitchen and seeing her be busy for him made him feel as though they had gone back to three years ago...

Luca poured a cup of warm water and came back out. She had adjusted the temperature of the water so that Luke could drink it immediately.

Luke received it and drank it at once. Then, he looked at her.

Luca was also looking at him. The moment they looked at each other, she forgot the questions that she wanted to ask him.

Luke knew there was a reason why she stayed up so late just to wait for his return. Hence, he explained, "When you returned to the villa today, Mom was watching from outside.”

"She was outside of the villa watching me?" Luca was astonished. That was because in such a high- end villa area, unregistered cars could not simply be allowed in. Even when she came back in a cab, she had to get out at the entrance too.

If Queenie were watching her at the entrance, she definitely would have seen her entering the villa.

Luke nodded and said, "She knew I moved in here with the kids. If things took a turn for the worst, her thoughts would start straying when she saw you enter the villa.”

Luca came to an understanding. 'It seems that Queenie is still suspicious of me.

'No wonder she was being so weird today...'

"Mr. Crawford, how did you know she was watching at the entrance?" Luca could not help but ask.

"My friends saw it." Luke simply said a reason as he could not let her know it was Jack who notified him.

That was because to Luca, Jack would always side with Queenie.

Luca nodded. 'It seems that Queenie has started suspecting me again after I rejected Enoch."

"Mrs. Norman is so busy on usual days. Why did she stalk me." Luca was sad. The last time, she intentionally had the driver take another route, making Queenie think that she was staying in that apartment.

'No, Queenie shouldn't be suspecting me.'

Luke looked at her and said, "Perhaps something had happened."

While Jack managed to notify him in time, he did not explain the matter properly. It seemed that there was something off about this situation that he needed to figure out.

"I'll be more careful next time," Luca said. Since she had moved in, she did not plan to move out.

After all, now that the kids had left Crawford Manor, they needed her to look after them.

She would not be assured if she left them under the maid's care.

'I'll talk about it after Luke is done with whatever he's busy with.'

That was what Luca planned.

Luke took out a car key from his pocket and passed it to her. "From now on, you'll be driving this car."

Luca shook her head and said, "No thanks, Mr. Crawford."

"If you continue to take cabs and get down at the entrance, you'll be easily spotted. With this car, you'll be able to drive in directly as I've already registered the car at the property department," Luke said. He got Zander to search the entire garage and find a low-profile car.

That was because Luca definitely would not accept cars that were too luxurious.

Luca looked at the car keys and accepted them after confirming that it was not a luxurious car.

"Thanks, Mr. Crawford," she thanked him. The reason why she accepted the car was so that she would not be exposed.

Luke was a public figure. Sooner or later, the reporters would know about him moving into this area. Hence, it would be better for her to drive the car in and out to prevent having her photos taken.

After getting the car keys, she packed up the documents on the table and said to Luke, "I'll go get some rest upstairs now, Mr. Crawford." "Alright." Luke did not stop her.

Luca returned to her bedroom. She did not think she had anything else to do. After giving it some thought, she remembered that she had not asked Luke whether he wanted supper or not.

He was busy and had only just come back. Perhaps he did not even have dinner.

Just when Luca was in a dilemma about whether or not she should head downstairs to ask him, there was a knock on her door.

She immediately opened the door. She looked at Luke who was outside and asked, "Do you still need anything, Mr. Crawford?"

"For the next three days, can I trouble you to look after the kids?" Luke said. He suddenly remembered he had to go abroad for some issues. She had yet to know about it.

Luca nodded in agreement. "That won't be a problem, but did something happen?"

"I'll need to make a trip to South Korea," Luke said. To be accurate, it was to send Allison there.

Speaking about South Korea made Luca think of Allison. "Is it because of Ms. Tanner?"

Luca nodded.

"Aren't you busy recently? Why are you still taking time out to go to South Korea?” Luca asked. The bidding had yet to be completed, and there were still lots of matters waiting for him to settle in the office.

"The main design has been completed. The remainder can be handled even if I'm away from the office," Luke explained. owns all content.

He had long ago planned for Allison to leave the country. Initially, he wanted to wait till he had settled the current project before sending her abroad, but it turned out that Allison could not even wait for half a month.

Two days ago, she started going against Susan again back in Crawford Manor. If it were not for the servant and butler stopping her, perhaps they would have started a physical fight.

The servant who stopped her was even scratched twice in the face and was currently undergoing a few tests in the hospital.

Old Master Crawford was so mad because of this. He had no choice but to let Luke settle the issue as soon as possible.

After all, the manor was peaceful when it was just Susan there. Only when Allison returned did the manor fall into chaos again.

Hence, Luke decided to send Allison to South Korea for treatment.

Initially, he hired an interpreter to travel along with her, but Allison started acting unreasonable and insisted that Luke personally send her off. Only then would she agree to go.

Feeling helpless, Luke booked the flight tickets after he was done with the design work.

When Luca heard it, she was heartbroken over how he was overexerting himself.

'He has to travel back and forth. Even while sending Allison abroad, he still has to work...'

Allison was no longer a kid. Naturally, it would not be a problem for her to travel abroad alone, yet she still insisted on Luke accompanying her. It must have been her request.

She was obviously Luke's mother yet acted as though she was his creditor, constantly needing his concern and demanding his fortune. At the same time, she did nothing to help him with his work or family.

Luca did not know how she should help him. The only thing she could do was to promise him. She nodded and said, "Alright, Mr. Crawford. I'll take good care of the kids."
