"Is that so? Get some rest after dinner. Food is ready," the maid said with a smile.

Luca felt that the maid was too involved. Maybe she was acting on Luke's orders...

When she heard the maid say that food was ready, she went into the study and said to Luke, "Mr. Crawford, dinner is ready."

Luke nodded and picked up the thick stack of documents on the side. "Bring me the crutches."

When he was discharged from the hospital, the hospital nurses had thoughtfully provided him with crutches but he never used them because he thought that it was bad for his image.

Luca glanced at the documents in his hand and looked away casually, feeling a little guilty. She had seen the word 'project'.

'Is that the bidding document?'

She quickly hid her emotions and brought the crutches in the corner to Luke.

Luke's mood sank when he saw the metal crutches. He thought that he would never use the crutches until he recovered, but he did not expect to have to use them now.

Luca sighed to herself when she saw his reaction. It was as though he was forced to use the crutches.

"Mr. Crawford, where are you going?"

"Upstairs." Luke abruptly stood up using the crutches with the document in one hand.

Luca immediately stepped forward to help him for fear that he would lose his footing and fall.

Luke had the crutches under his armpits. The awkward feeling made him uncomfortable. He would not be using them if it were not for Luca's sake.

"Are you alright?" Luca asked with concern when she saw that he could stand up straight but was not moving.

"Let's go. Walk behind me and pay attention. I'm a little unstable." In front of Luca, he did not bother to maintain his image. He honestly told her that he was not familiar with using crutches.

"Okay." Luca nodded in agreement and followed behind him as she held her breath.
