Tommy sounded as though Luke should have put more effort to win Luca’s heart.

Luke’s expression turned grim. “Who let you watch those soap operas?”

“I watch them whenever Grandma Susan watches them in the living room. What’s wrong with soap operas, Daddy? Why would Grandma Susan watch them if there’s something wrong with them?” Tommy asked several questions at one go.

Ever since Allison went to prison, Susan acted like the matriarch of the household.

Whenever Old Master Crawford was not at home, Susan would sit on the living room couch and watch meaningless soap operas with convoluted family plots. She did not care if what she watched would negatively affect the children’s development.

Luke had never heard his son use that word before. He wondered if he should talk to Susan. She had a television in her bedroom, so it was probably better to watch it there than in the living room.

“Because they’re boring,” he said.

Tommy nodded. “Oh? If that’s the case, I won’t watch them next time. I’ll find something less boring to do.

Luke patted the child’s head, took his hand, and walked toward the spot where he parked his car.

“You need to work harder, Daddy. Ms. Luca is a good person. Some other man might seduce her if you don’t work harder,” Tommy said. He knew more about adult relationships thanks to the soap operas he watched.

Luke’s expression darkened. “Why do I have to work harder?”

“Aren’t you trying to make her your girlfriend?” Tommy analyzed like a little adult. “If you don’t want to make her your girlfriend, why did you treat her to dinner?”

“It’s just repaying the favor,” Luke said, not caring if his son knew the nuance behind it.

“Nonsense, Daddy,” Tommy said derisively.

Luke raised his eyebrow. “Have you ever treated me like your Daddy before?”

“Of course I have. I won’t bother telling you all this if you’re not my Daddy. If you’re not trying to make her your girlfriend, why would you deliberately go to the apartment to change clothes? Aren’t you trying to find an opportunity?” Tommy said. Without looking at him, any person would have thought that a mature adult had said that. “Also, When the waitress treated Ms. Luca as your wife, you didn’t deny it or explain anything.”
