The two cars left the renowned hotel and headed back to the hotel they were staying in.

Once they reached the hotel, Bianca got out of the car.

Sue soon followed suit.

At the hotel entrance, they saw Jason Doyle waiting, dressed in his smart suit and leather shoes.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Doyle." Just like Sue and the others, Bianca greeted Jason as she went in.

Jason nodded at Bianca too, but his gaze changed when he looked at Bianca.

After Bianca walked into the hotel lobby, Jason was still frowning slightly as he looked inside.

Luke got out of the car and noticed that there was something off about Jason's expression.

As usual, he turned his dark gaze directly at Jason. When Jason realized something amiss, he hurriedly turned around too, looking at his boss perfectly professionally.

Standing tall and straight, Luke strode into the hotel, his voice icy cold as he stated, "You were looking at her."

He was addressing Jason, who was behind him.

Jason seemed to be deliberating if he should say certain things out loud. After a while, he decided to keep his thoughts to himself, saying, "No, I wasn't."

What a poor pretense!

Luke's expression turned dark.

Just then, Jean got out of a cab and walked into the hotel, his laptop under one arm. When he saw his boss and Special Assistant Doyle standing in front of the elevator, he blinked. He had no choice but to greet them, though. "Hello, Mr. Doyle, Mr. Crawford, sir."

Luke's gaze was sharp as he looked at the newcomer.

"I'm a new employee with the design department, Jean Langdon." Jean introduced himself and suitably added, "I won't get in your way, Mr. Crawford, so I'll go upstairs now."

Luke's expression did not change, but right here and now, his entire body seemed to be covered in a layer of frost that kept everyone away.

Once he returned to his room upstairs, Luke undid the exquisitely-designed buttons on his sleeves as he glanced at the two children. They had tired themselves out playing and were now fast asleep on the bed.

He then walked toward the bar in the suite and uncorked a bottle of red wine, pouring himself a glass.

Frowning, he downed the whole glass, the cool liquid flowing into this throat. Not long later, the two children woke up.

The older brother was the first to wake up, brushing his teeth and washing his face. Once done, he obediently came back to the room and helped his sister pick out her princess dress.
