However, Luke's hands were clutching tightly onto her waist.

'He did it on purpose...'

Luca pursed her lips. Accidents could easily occur at such a distance. Her throat was burning, and it took her great effort to speak. "Let go of me, Mr. Crawford. I have to get up. Only then can you..."

As she was speaking, she was trying to free herself from Luke's hands.

Even though he was not willing to let her go, Luke ultimately still did. He did not want to push her too hard and have her keep a bigger distance from him.

After all, Luca had made great improvements in other skills throughout the years. Her instinct to escape had gotten better as well.

She belonged to him. Even if he had to be patient, he had to have her.

Luke let go of her, and Luca felt the grip around her waist loosen. She let out a breath of relief. She placed her hands on the bed and used them to support her as she attempted to get up.

At that moment, the door was pushed open.

Johann came in and saw Luca on top of Luke's body. He shrieked in an exaggerated tone, "Oh my, I'm sorry! Am I interfering in you two's activity?"

Luca heard Johann's words, and her face went scarlet as she immediately got up. She took a deep breath and looked at Johann, who had turned his back to them. Feeling helpless, she explained, "Dr. Park. I accidentally tripped over and it was Mr. Crawford who held onto me. It's not like what you think."

Johann did not turn around and just waved his hand behind him as he said, "I got it. Do you guys want to continue? Why don't I leave first?"

"Dr. Park!" Luca could hear a teasing tone in his words. She became shy and felt helpless. "I've already stood up."

Johann slowly turned around, and seeing that both their clothes were tidy, he cleared his throat and winked at Luke who was slowly sitting up. "I'm so sorry, buddy. I didn't know you were in the midst of it."
