“Use anything you like. I haven't touched any of the products before," Luca replied. After a few times, she had come to terms with the fact that Luke would abruptly appear at her apartment to have meals with her and stay with her...

Luke took out a suit that had never been worn before from the maid's bedroom and walked into the bathroom.

Soon after, he finished washing up and walked out.

Luca was sitting at the dining table. When she noticed that Luke's tie was crooked, she said, "Mr. Crawford, your tie isn't tied properly."

Luke lowered his head and looked at his tie. He had done it on purpose. Walking over to her, he said in a low voice, "Help me."

"I'm not good at tying ties. You should do it yourself," Luca said as she lowered her eyes, her hands clenching into fists unconsciously.

There was a moment when she wanted to reach out and help him put on his tie properly.

However, she immediately returned to her senses. She knew she could not do that.

Luke glanced at the breakfast spread on the table. She had prepared an English-style breakfast today, and there were plenty of different dishes. He grabbed a slice of bread and said, "My hands are greasy. Help me."

A confused look appeared in Luca's eyes. She had no idea what the man in front of her was trying to do.

It seemed like he was acting so shamelessly just so she would help him fix his tie.

The slice of bread he was holding had a layer of butter slathered on top of it, and it was true that he would not be able to fasten his tie unless he washed his hands clean because the tie would get greasy.

Luca raised her head resignedly. As their eyes met, she put on a reluctant expression on her face as she helped him fasten his tie.

Even though she deliberately kept her distance from him, she could feel Luke's body leaning forward slightly. It seemed like he was trying to close the distance she had placed between them.
