Luca was patient. She waited until the kids had finished talking before replying to each of them. Then, she asked them, "Where's your daddy?"

Rainie pointed upstairs, "Daddy is upstairs. He's still working."

"Alright. Be good. I'm going upstairs to discuss something with him." Luca had bought some chocolate- flavored candies before she came back. She took them out of her pocket and gave two candies to each of them. Then, she headed upstairs.

After what had happened today, she was pretty sure that she would not get into trouble. Still, she had to tell Luke about it.

She walked upstairs to the second floor. Luca directly knocked on his bedroom door. This time, it was not because of her affairs but about Nina and the Mallory family. It had nothing to do with their love matters. Hence, she was able to face him directly.

"Come in." Luke's voice came from inside.

Luca pushed the door open and saw that the man was busy with his work. He was typing on the keyboard handling his work. He was not in a meeting, so he was available to talk.

"Mr. Crawford, I'd like to have a word with you. Can you spare me five minutes of your time?" she asked.

"Come in and talk to me. I'm not used to talking to someone from a far distance," Luke said in a cold tone as he glanced at Luca, who was still standing at the door.

Luca was startled for a moment. She told herself that his bedroom was not some bottomless abyss. She walked in.

Luke pointed at the couch beside him and said, "Sit down and talk."

"There's no need to. It's not really a big deal. It's just that I ran into Pierre when I came out of the hospital just now. I couldn't help but give him a lecture." Luca told him what she did.

Luke frowned and looked at her. "Are you hurt?"

Luca was slightly surprised. He did not blame her or judge her for what she did. Instead, he was concerned about her and asked if she was hurt.

"No. He can't lay a finger on me," she answered honestly. The incident last time was merely an accident.

If he had not used dirty tricks to trap her after kidnapping her, she would not have ended up in such a mess.
