Luke was like the head of the household, coming and going at will. He kept barging into her life.

Luca looked at the closed door with mixed feelings. It was not that she did not welcome him. It was that she felt unworthy of standing by his side.

If Luke wanted to get close to her, there was no way she could refuse him. In the end, it was them who would be hurt while Abel was the biggest beneficiary.

She had to find something to do to distract herself from the negative emotions.

After she was done with the dishes, Luca walked to the balcony and saw the clothes Luke had changed out of. She sighed, sorted the clothes, and put them in the washing machine.

"Hello, is this Ms. Craw?" Wanda Rayne said.
