"Ms. Craw, sit. Don't stand." Old Master Crawford greeted her.

"Okay, thanks." Luca nodded and sat on the single-seater sofa. She was a little nervous when faced with Old Master Crawford.

Tommy got down from her arms and sat beside her.

"Ms. Luca, have some fruit." He greeted her like he was a little adult.

"Thank you, but I don't want to have any. You can eat it," Luca said and took another glance around. Old Master Crawford, the butler, and Tommy were the only ones in the living room.

Seeing that she did not want to have any fruit, Tommy was worried that his Great-grandpa's seriousness had scared her.

Tommy thought about it and looked at Old Master Crawford. "Great-grandpa, can I take Ms. Luca upstairs? Lanie and Rainie are waiting for Ms. Luca to continue telling the story."

When he heard what Tommy said, Old Master Crawford knew that Tommy was worried that he was scaring Luca. He saw through everything but he did not say anything. "Go. I have someone over for chess. Don't go too crazy, okay?"

"Got it, Great-grandpa." Tommy smiled and stood up while holding Luca's hand. "Ms. Luca, let's go."

Luca stood up, nodded at Old Master Crawford, and took the child's hand to go upstairs with him.

Although she felt that it was inappropriate, she felt pressured when faced with Old Master Crawford. She would rather head upstairs with Tommy.

Old Master Crawford looked at the two figures heading upstairs and asked the butler, "Do you think she looks familiar?"

The butler thought about it for a while and replied, "I think Ms. Craw's temperament is similar to Mrs. Crawford's before she lost her memory. They're both gentle and elegant. Their tone of voice and pronunciation of certain words sound the same as well, but nothing else feels familiar..."

"Hmm." Old Master Crawford thought the same.

"Is Young Master Luke upstairs?" Old Master Crawford asked.
