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.

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

Luca was nervous when she heard Wanda's voice. She was worried that something had happened to Old Man Rayne. She quickly said, "I am. What's the matter?"
