Luca secretly let out a sigh.

Luke was obviously drunk. How could a tough person like him bring up his embarrassing past if he was not drunk?

When she was still Bianca back then, she had never seen the other side of him when he showed his weaknesses.

"I always wondered what kind of person I would be today if Louis were born earlier," Luke said in a low voice.

Previously, Susan was unable to get pregnant, and that was when Allison brought Luke back from the orphanage. She brought him to meet Old Master Crawford to acknowledge him as his grandfather.

Luke would never have returned to the Crawford family if Louis had already been born.

Luke would have grown up in the orphanage without knowing who his parents were and why he was abandoned and left at the orphanage.

Perhaps he would have been adopted by someone else and grown up in an unfamiliar family. He would not have known anything about his family.

"You would've become a successful man even if you weren't in the Crawford family." Luca placed her hand on his chest.

Perhaps the successful people in this world had the privilege of being given a head start in their life, which led them to become successful.

However, she knew Luke was not one of them.

Even if he started from scratch, he would be able to build his career with his talents and efforts. He would be able to do great things all the same.

Although it would be difficult, he would never be afraid of the difficulties he faced. He would be able to endure all the pain and weariness.

These things were not given to him by the Crawford family.

"How do you know?" The corners of Luke's lips were slightly curled.

“It's because you're that kind of person. You're someone people will still look up to even if you lose all your aura,” Luca said in a soft and tender voice.

Luca had always looked up to Luke. It was not because he was one of the Crawford family members. It was the talents he had and how gifted he was. He was in a position where she would never be able to reach.

Luca still remembered the days when she had just set up her company—Brilliant. There were times when she dealt with picky customers and they were dissatisfied with her designs no matter how many times she had amended them. However, once Luke helped with the designs, his work would always satisfy the customers. No one could come up with a design that could fully satisfy the customer, but Luke could.

This was not something he could do by relying on the Crawford family.

"What about you?” Luke asked.

"Huh?" Luca looked at him. She noticed that the redness on his cheeks had seemed to fade a little.
