Luca knew about medicines, and Old Master Crawford was worried that she would refuse to drink the tonic. If that happened, everything he planned would be for nothing. Hence, he tried his best to make Luca believe that he had no intentions of harming her.

“This is the tonic that the old master had prepared for the two of you. We got the herbs from Dr. Archer. It's good for young people who often stay up all night to work," added Mr. Griffin.

Mr. Griffin knew what the old master was up to.

Mr. Griffin had been serving the Crawford family for years. He knew Luke since he was a boy and watched him grow up into an adult. Hence, he had the same thought as the old master. They both hoped for the best for Luke.

At least that way, Luke would not have to be alone for the rest of his life. He would have someone he loved to keep him company.

The old master meant no harm. He could see that Luke and Luca had feelings for each other, but they were making slow progress. That was why the old master was anxious about it.

It was not a bad thing if someone gave them a push.

At least, it was not a bad thing for Luke.

Luca looked at the tonic in front of her and glanced at Old Master Crawford with her brows raised.

Old Master Crawford met her incredulous gaze and said, "Come on, drink it. Do you think I'm going to harm you?"

"Old Master Crawford, I had tea an hour ago. I'm worried if I drink this now.." Luca was worried that she would be taking too many nutrients today. She usually took care of her health well, and she did not need to drink any tonic.

Besides, Shanks had been giving her various types of medicines after she gave birth to Nyla. It was not because he treated her as an experimental tool to test his drugs, but because he was helping her recuperate her health.

The health issues she used to have after giving birth and the complications she suffered because of her depression when she was pregnant were cured by Shanks.

Her health was better than most people's.
