Chapter 3113 Have The Kids Been Behaving These Past Three Days?

Luca had long gotten accustomed to Luke's cold attitude toward others. She

glanced at the time and suggested, "It's already noon. Why don't we grab lunch

before heading back?"

"Sounds good. Let's go to the restaurant we went to yesterday. Since it's not the

weekend and the event is over, there shouldn't be as many people. We can get a

table without reservations," replied Luke. He remembered that Luca enjoyed the

food there.

Luca probably wanted to savor that taste again. However, she would have to wait

until their next visit to X City.

"Do we really need to go back there? Let's save the trouble. There's a restaurant

upstairs in this hotel. We can have a meal there and then head home." Luca

shook her head as she thought it was unnecessary to backtrack.

She knew Luke suggested going to that restaurant because she enjoyed the food

there, but for her, it did not matter where they ate. As long as she was with Luke,

she felt content.

Luke understood her thoughts and did not insist. It was better to go back early

anyway. Although it was summer and the sun did not come down till late, which

made it safe to drive even in the late evenings, they had been away for three

days. She was probably thinking about their kids at home.

Their kids were surely missing them too.

For the past three days, the kids had not video-called them as they probably

thought that they were busy and did not want to disturb them.

Going no contact for three days naturally made Luca anxious.

Hence, the three of them had lunch at the restaurant upstairs and then set off

back to A City.

On the way back to A City, Luke received a call from Gale.

"Boss, I just received a call. There are two pieces of news. The first is that Abel
