Chapter 3310 Married For Years
"No, the credit is yours for figuring it out."
Luca felt a bit relieved. Now that Vivian had seen through some things, it meant Luca's earlier words to her had not been in vain.
After putting fresh sheets on the bed, Luca walked into the master bedroom, pulled out a brand-new nightgown, and handed it to Vivian. "This nightgown has never been worn. It might be a little short, but it should fit."
Ever since she came clean about her identity, Luke had gone back to spoiling her like before, buying her all kinds of things without holding back.
This included clothes. The store managers from high-end boutiques would personally bring them straight to her doorstep.
Now, she had way more clothes than she could ever wear.
Vivian held the nightgown up and compared it to herself.
She was a bit taller than Luca, so it would definitely be shorter on her, but it was still wearable.
"Thanks, Luca." Vivan thanked her.
"Don't mention it,” replied Luca with a smile. "Why don't you grab another outfit while you're at it? These are all unworn with their tags still on."
She pointed at a pile of clothes, pondered for a moment, and added, "You should go for a long dress, though. It'll look better, considering the height difference between us."
Vivian waved her hand dismissively. "Nah, it's all good. It's hot out. I'll take a shower tonight, then wash my clothes and hang them up. I can wear them again tomorrow." "Alright." Luca thought it was a solid idea.
They chatted a bit more until it was time for the kids to sleep.
Luca walked into Luke's home office, where he was seated at his desk and busy working on his computer.
She smiled gently, looking at him with warm eyes.
Luke took her hand and gently pulled her into his arms.
"We've got guests!" Luca lowered her head with a shy look.
Luke planted a kiss on her forehead. "No one's watching."
"Well, I came here to talk about something important." The spot where he kissed her felt warm, and Luca leaned back slightly to avoid getting too distracted and forgetting what she needed to say.
"Go ahead." Luke pulled her closer, giving her soft hand a squeeze. He gently caressed her face, treating her like a treasure and handling her with utmost care and tenderness.
"Tommy has his math competition tomorrow, and he specifically wants you to take him. If you can't make it, I'll take him," said Luca.
"Tomorrow, huh? Let me check." Luke opened his email, glanced at the pile of unfinished work, and then replied, "Sure, I can do that."
"Are all these unread emails?" Luca looked at the screen and asked.
"Most of them are," answered Luke.
Seeing the full page of documents and the number of unread emails, Luca paused for a moment before saying, "Maybe I should just take him."
"No, you haven't had a break in a couple of days. Let me take care of this," Luke insisted.
"You just focus on your work. I'll take Tommy. Don't worry, I'll have Warren drive us tomorrow," Luca reassured him, knowing the competition would only take a couple of hours and she would mostly be waiting in the car.
If Luke went, he would be wasting time he could spend working. It would be better for her to take Tommy.
"But..." Luke frowned slightly at the thought of her having to get up early tomorrow.
"It's okay. Let me tell Tommy about it now. Then, I'll hop in the shower and get some rest," replied Luca, planning it all out in her head. If she went to wash up and rest now, she would still have a solid eight hours of sleep.
"Okay," replied Luke. However, he did not let go of her.
Just as Luca was about to get up, his grip tightened around her waist, and she felt her cheeks flush. She lightly patted his arm. "If you don't let go, how am I supposed to get up?"
"I don't want to." Luke's gaze was locked onto hers, brimming with deep emotion.
Luca met his eyes and gave him a gentle smile. "Come on, let me go. Tommy's going to be asleep soon."
"Just give me a kiss." Luke's eyes sparkled with affection as he bargained with her like a little kid.
"Seriously? You're acting like a child," Luca teased as she cupped his face and gave him a light peck.
As she started to pull away, Luke cradled the back of her head and deepened the kiss.
Luca felt a wave of dizziness wash over her. She struggled to catch her breath until he finally pulled back.
Luca gasped. "You're such a tease! You caught me off guard like that, and I almost couldn't
catch my breath!"
"Haha, that was sweet." Luke suddenly burst into laughter.
Luca playfully punched his chest. "Let go! I need to check on the kids."
"Alright." Luke kept his word and released her.
Luca bounced away like a little rabbit. Touching her lips, she playfully pouted. "You kissed me too hard!"
"Really? I guess I just lost control for a second." Luke did not think so. His eyes were filled with desire. "If you didn't have stuff to do, I might've gone even harder."
Luca felt her face heat up.
They had been married for years and had four kids, yet she still blushed. "What's with you being all flirty at night? I'm done talking to you. I gotta check on the kids."
Then, she spun around and hurried away like she was trying to escape.
Luca could hear his hearty laughter behind her, making her cheeks turn bright red. She stood at Tommy's bedroom door and took a few deep breaths before pushing the door open.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Luca saw him sitting at his desk. She walked into his room and asked, "Tommy, are you still
awake?"
Tommy turned around, smiled, and answered, "I'm organizing my stationery."
If it were another kid and their parents, the parent might be helping them get ready for the competition.
However, Luca and Luke did not have to worry about that because their kids knew how to handle it.
Luca watched him put his clear pencil case into his backpack and asked with concern, "So,
are you all set?"
"Yes, all done!" Tommy zipped up his bag.
"Tommy, I've got to tell you something." Luca pulled up a chair and explained that Luke would be busy with work tomorrow, so she would be the one taking him to the competition
venue.
Tommy nodded and gave Luca a hug. "Ms. Luca, it's all good whether it's you or Dad taking me. But we have to wake up early, and I didn't want you to tire yourself out, so I picked Dad."
Luca gently pinched his chubby cheeks. "I'm glad you understand. Your dad is working hard too. It's getting late now. Let's get some rest, okay?"
"Okay." Tommy nodded.
Once she saw him snuggle under the covers, she tucked him in, said goodnight, and stepped out of the room. She closed the door behind her.
After confirming that Lanie and Rainie were also asleep, Luca headed back to her room to
wash up and unwind. Just as she lay down, Luke wrapped his arms around her, pulling her close so they could rest together.

After leaving Luke's place, Gale had a few drinks with Gordan before finally heading back to
Rain's villa.
