"I've already told him, and Mr. Crawford has asked Aunt Neile to tidy up the guest room, so you can go rest when we get there if you want," said Luca, indicating that she did not have to ask Luke.
"Luca..." Vivan was touched by her planning. She leaned her head on her shoulder and said, "Teach me how to speak the local language."
"I can only communicate with you in the local language. I can't teach you because I don't have the complete syllabus for teaching, so I'll just leave it to the language teacher in your school." Luca patted Vivian's hand to reassure her.
"Alright." Vivian was reassured by her words.
Both she and Luke had the same magic power to make her feel at peace.
Luca let Vivian lean on her, and when she adjusted herself to a comfortable position, she purposely glanced back to see that there was a black BMW trailing them.
Although she had forgotten to look at the car plate, the car model was the exact same.
She guessed that the people in that car would not make any moves for the time being, so she just let them be.
When they arrived at the neighborhood, Luca and Vivian decided to get out of the car and walk in as the security there was strict.
After taking the suitcase out of the car, Luca glanced at the BMW that had come to a stop on the side of the road and walked straight to the mansion without looking back.
"Luca, why do I feel like someone was following us on the way here?" Vivian spoke to her inarticulately in the local language.
"Is that so? No, I didn't notice anything." Luca did not tell her about the BMW, but she was quite surprised. With a brother like Ray, Vivian's observation skills must not be bad either.
It was just that her mind was on something else, so she did not notice that there was a BMW following them the entire time.
"Perhaps I'm just overly sensitive." Vivian smiled and did not dwell on it as she thought that she was mistaken because all she could think about was Gordan.
She was still imagining Gordan silently following her, protecting her, and showing up when she needed him.
However, the harshness of reality was telling her that it was just all in her head.
After walking for quite a while, they arrived at the door of the mansion. Luca pressed her fingerprint before opening the door and welcoming her in. "You'll be staying here for the next few days. We can talk about those things afterward."
"Sure!" Vivian had peace of mind. If Gordan could not find her after a few days, perhaps he would give up.
The two of them walked into the mansion as they passed by the front yard and entered the living room.
"Ms. Luca, you're back!" Tommy ran over and hugged Luca's thighs. Then, he looked at them in surprise. "Ms. Vivian, you're here too."
"Yup, I've come to stay for a few days. Am I welcome?" Vivian put her suitcase aside and squatted down to meet the kid's eye level.
"Of course, welcome in! Ms. Vivian, you can stay as long as you like. I like you very much." Tommy's words were sweet. He hugged Vivian and whispered in her ear, "Ms. Vivian, it's only been a few days
since I last saw you, but you've become even prettier."
Vivian pinched Tommy's face. "Little kid, you're handsome and have such a way with words. I wonder how many girls will be charmed by you when you grow up."
"Ms. Vivian, I'm already very popular right now!" Tommy proudly puffed out his chest to indicate that he was a popular kid.
He was indeed very popular in school, but he found his female classmates to be too talkative, so he would usually play with the boys. Belonging to .
He knew a lot of games, and all the games he knew were of high difficulty level, so the boys in his school admired him a lot.
Tommy lived up to his name in school.
Luca knew that her child would be popular in school ever since she was Bianca.
The kids did have Luke's genes, after all.
Luke used to be a popular kid in school. Although he was low-key, his looks and skills outshone everyone else. It was hard for him to keep a low profile.
Luca was also proud of herself that she could be with such an outstanding man. She even had three adorable kids with him!
"Really? You're amazing," Vivian complimented. She loved children, but she had been muddling along all these years, so she had no kids of her own.
"Hehe." Tommy took her hand as he sensed her fondness for him and said, "Ms. Vivian, Aunt Neile has finished tidying up the guest room. Let me take you there."
"Okay. Thank you, Tommy." Vivian carried her suitcase and winked at Luca before following Tommy upstairs.
Luca also went up while carrying two bags.
After arriving on the second floor, Luca asked, "Tommy, are Lanie and Rainie in their bedrooms?"
Since they were not in the living room, she guessed that they were in the bedroom reading books.
"Yes, Ms. Luca." Tommy nodded and walked to the guest room while holding Vivian's hand.
Luca said to him, "Then, you bring Ms. Vivian to the guest room first. I'll go put some stuff away."
“Roger that, Ms. Luca!" Tommy was very glad that Vivian could come over because he had known her since he was little. Plus, Vivian was soft and gentle, so Tommy had a good impression of her.
Luca carried the bags into Lanie's room, and sure enough, the two kids were in there with a book in each of their hands. "Lanie, Rainie, I bought some toys while shopping. Do you want to take a look?"
The children's eyes lit up upon hearing that, so they ran to her. Then, Rainie said, "Ms. Luca, did you buy these for us?'
"Yeah, and Tommy, let's see..." Luca sat on the chair at the side and took out the stuff she bought for them judging by the packaging.
"This is Lanie's." She took out a sky-blue gift box and handed it to Lanie.
"Thank you, Ms. Luca. Can I open it?" Lanie's expression was indifferent, but he was very excited about the gift Luca gave him.
"Sure, and this is for Rainie." Luca nodded and handed another pink gift box to Rainie.
"Wow, thank you, Ms. Luca." Rainie glanced at Lanie and saw him unwrapping the gift, so she did the same.
The two of them unwrapped the gift and saw that it was a set of stationery.
"When I saw this while shopping, I thought that it would come in handy since you're starting school soon, so I bought it," Luca explained. Every parent would prepare stationery for their kid during back- to- school season.
The Crawford family had many maids, and Luca could leave it to them if she wanted to, but she still wanted to give stationery to them herself.
They were her kids, after all.
She may be hiding her identity now, but she still wanted to fulfill her role as a mother, even if it was just a small gesture.
It was all because of her love for them.
"Thank you, Ms. Luca. Pink is my favorite!" There was a delighted smile on Rainie's face as she kissed Luca on the cheek.
