Luke stepped on the accelerator when he heard what she blurted out. "Are you taking pity on me?"

"No, your identity and status are envied by others. You don't need any pity." Luca turned her head to the side and was annoyed at herself for babbling.

"Those are just what others see on the surface. Luca, you see more of me than others do. Do you still envy the real me?" Luke asked.

"No," Luca answered without a second thought.

Luke chuckled and said, "You can take pity on me. I do hope that you sympathize with me more and stay by my side."

Luca's heart ached when she heard what he said.

She wanted to stay by his side, but it was impossible. Abel would never allow it. She was living in agony but she could not tell him anything.

The only thing that she could do was express her firm denial. "Mr. Crawford, nothing is ever going to happen between us."

"Someone said this to me once and I made the impossible possible. Luca, how long do you think it'll take me to get you to accept me?" Luke stood his ground.

Luca was heartbroken. She wanted nothing more than to hug the man who seemed to be glorious on the surface but bore a lot of responsibilities on his shoulders.

He was human. No matter how tough he was, he would get tired as well.

However, he did not let anyone know about his difficulties. He just endured them silently.

"Mr. Crawford, as I said, nothing will ever happen between us."

"You'll know that you're wrong sooner or later." Luke parked his car at the entrance of the supermarket and said, "Don't you want to make chicken soup for Nina? Do you need to get the ingredients?"
