Tommy's eyes were wide as he tilted his head sideways and stared at her for a long while before mumbling, "It's cold outside, Ms. Luca. You should dress more warmly before you head to work.”

“Alright.” Luca felt warm and fuzzy inside when she saw how her son was concerned about her. The corners of her lips curled into a bright smile as she ruffled his hair.

The fear she had felt before this was slowly fading away now that she had been ruminating over this for about an hour. She was no longer in the state she was when she returned.

Now, the most important thing to do was find out if her stalker was one of Pierre or Matysh's men.

Luke did not say anything as he observed their interactions. Lanie and Rainie had pulled him aside when he returned and told him how Luca had been acting oddly when she returned.

The children and Nina were still present, which made it unsuitable for him to get a better idea of what was happening. Thus, he was in no rush to do so.

Aunt Neile brought the food over to the table.

The three adults and children finished their meal.

After that was the time for the children to watch TV.

Naturally, the responsibility of checking each child's homework fell on Luke now that he had returned. Luca chose to go upstairs after watching Luke sit in the living room and check each child's homework.

"The fruit platter is ready, Luca. Do you want some?" Nina asked as she helped Aunt Neile bring out a plate of fruit.

"It's alright. You guys can enjoy it," Luca said as she walked upstairs. She wanted to experiment.

A thoughtful look appeared in Nina's eyes as she watched Luca walk off. She turned to look at Luke and saw that he was just about to walk upstairs after finishing checking each child's homework.

In a low voice, she said to him, "Luca wasn't in the best state when she returned."

"I know," Luke said calmly as he glanced upstairs.

Nina frowned. From the tone of his voice, those who were not in the know would have thought that he and Luca were strangers.

However, last night, she had watched as he entered Luca's room immediately after returning home.
