Luca tried to read Luke’s expression, but he did not express any emotion on his face.

“Should I prepare anything?” She knew that she could not refuse, so she asked him more questions, hoping to find out what he wanted from her.

“No,” Luke said and left her office. He did not give her any chance to ask any more questions.

Luca was speechless as she watched the door close. Judging from Luke’s attitude, he did not seem like he wanted to ask her out on a date. If that were the case, why else would Luke ask her out?

She could not think of a reason…

However, she was quite relieved that Luke did not ask too much of her.

The next day, Luca went downstairs at half-past seven in the morning. True to his word, Luke’s car was parked next to the neighborhood entrance, and he was already waiting for her.

As she approached the car, Luke got out of the driver’s seat and opened the door on the other side for her.

“Good morning, Mr. Crawford,” she greeted him.

“Good morning. Let’s go,” Luke said tersely.

Luca bent over slightly and stepped into the car. When she wanted to close the door, she found that Luke had already closed the door.

Silently, she fastened her seatbelt while watching Luke walk around the car.

Luke returned to his seat, fastened the seatbelt, and started driving.

Luca noticed that he did not turn on the navigation app, which meant that he was quite familiar with the destination. After a while, she could not hold back her curiosity anymore and asked, “Mr. Crawford, where are we going?”

“The prison,” Luke said truthfully.
