"A gift? I've prepared something on your behalf." Luke went to the trunk and took out a nicely packaged gift.

The gift was handed to her but Luca did not take it. "Is there only one? If you give me yours, what are you going to give to Old Master Crawford?"

"My gift has been passed to Grandpa. I prepared this for you. Take it," Luke said. He guessed that Luca might have forgotten to prepare a gift so he prepared one for her in advance.

In the past, she was not as forgetful and was always the one who reminded him about things as such. He was somewhat not used to it now that the tables were turned.

Luca took it. The gift was heavy and looked expensive. "Mr. Crawford, how much is this? I'll pass you the money for it later."

"We'll talk about it later." Luke helped her prepare the gift but had no intention of asking her to pay him back.

Luca felt impotent. Luke then took out an envelope from the pocket inside his suit and handed it over.

"I assume you didn't prepare any birthday money for him. Here," Luke said.

Luca shook her head. Her initial plan was to buy a gift or get an envelope at a nearby shopping mall so she could put some cash into it. Unexpectedly, Luke had already prepared everything. However, she did not have any cash on her.

"Mr. Crawford, I don't have any cash. I'll just give Old Master Crawford the present. Hopefully, he won't mind."

Luke shoved the envelope into her hand and said, "I got it all ready for you."

Luca felt the thick envelope and realized that there was money in it. Luke had indeed gotten everything ready.
