Susan dared not speak after being scolded.

Luca was looking down. Her heart was in a mess with roiling waves when she heard Mrs. Nancy say Luke had specifically ordered her to prepare this.

It was just a minor injury...

Old Master Crawford went along with what Mrs. Nancy said and said caringly, "Ms. Craw, why didn't you tell us that you're injured? I'm sorry to have troubled you to come back and forth. You had to take care of the children too.”

“It's just a minor injury. It's not a big deal.” Luca shook her head gently and took a sip of the stew. She savored the rich taste of the stew.

There was more than just ginger and turmeric in the stew. There were also herbs that were good for health.

Luca scooped a spoonful and smelled it. She was sure that tonic had been added to the stew.

Young people like her were fine with drinking such nutritious stew. Elderly folk like Old Master Crawford should only take tonics at appropriate times to nourish their bodies. Taking tonics too often would be too much for their bodies to handle.

Luke was watching that small gesture of Luca's. It caught his attention.

Luca did not notice that Luke was watching her. She thought that Mrs. Nancy had been working for the Crawford family for years, so she would never think of harming Old Master Crawford.

However, even if Mrs. Nancy had many years of working experience, there were some things that she might not know.

Tommy, who was sitting beside Luca, took a sip of the stew. His brows furrowed at once. He tugged on her sleeves and complained, "Ms. Luca, it tastes bad. Why are you drinking this?"

Luca replied to him in her heart, 'I don't want to drink this. It's Luke who's making me drink it.'

Did he have anything to do with the herbs added into the stew?

Luca soon dispelled her doubts.

Even though Luke looked indifferent, he loved and cared about Old Master Crawford. He was the one who raised Luke. Hence, he would never do something like that.
