Chapter 1022 Heavy Is The Head That Wears The Crown

"I'm not struggling!" Rainie made a face at Blanche as she slowly did her homework.

Blanche shook his head indifferently and played with the trinkets on the table.

Luke watched by the side as his daughter finished the last question. She then handed her workbook to Bianca. "Mom, I'm done."

Bianca checked and found that there was no problem with it. She then signed her name at the bottom of the page.

"Mommy, Daddy, can I go play?" Rainie asked while blinking her big round eyes.

"Go for it, but don't go out of control." Bianca agreed and helped them put their workbooks in their school bags.

Rainie and Blanche walked out of the study.

Bianca put the school bags aside. She only felt comfortable talking about the break-in after the children left.

"Did Grandpa blame you?" She put her hand on the back of his hand and asked with concern.

Luke grabbed her hand and rubbed her fingers lightly as he replied, "No."

Bianca knew that Old Master Crawford was a reasonable man. However, this was not a trivial matter and she was worried that the old man would blame Luke.

Only she, who was always by his side, knew that Luke had invested a lot of time on the Crawford family and T Corporation. Sometimes, he would accompany her to bed and after she fell asleep, he would quietly go to the study to work overtime. He only went back to the bedroom to sleep for two hours before the break of dawn.

Bianca felt distressed for him but could not say anything. 'Heavy is the head that wears the crown.'

Seeing him working so hard and being so exhausted, she only had one thought. She would match his footsteps and help him in the future.

The caretaker knocked on the door and walked in. She said respectfully, "Master, Madam, Old Master Crawford has asked me to inform you that dinner is ready."

"Okay." Luke took Bianca's hand, stood up, and went downstairs.
