After Luca finished calculating the data and equation, she realized that Luke did not affect her when he was by her side.

Instead, his presence made her even more focused on what she was doing.

The silhouette that kept on appearing in her mind and affecting her progress never showed up again with Luke by her side.

Luca closed her notebook.

Luke noticed that and asked, "Done?"

“Yeah. I've concluded the experimental data for this stage." Luca placed the notebook on the bedside table. After that, she began to feel overwhelmed again.

Luke closed his book, placed it on the bedside table, and said, “Get some rest."

“Mr. Crawford..." Luca was afraid that Luke was dropping her a hint. She quickly said, “It's the time of the month..."

“Just sleep." Luke's eyes darkened. He was not planning on verifying whether she was telling the truth or not.

He only wanted to cuddle with her in bed.

He could do nothing, but he had to cuddle with her. That way, he could have a good night's sleep.

Luca slightly frowned. Luke's reaction was too calm, and it was unlike anything she had expected.

She attempted to find some emotions in his eyes, even if it was disappointment. However, there was none.

Was Luke not interested in her body?

There should be a look of disappointment in his eyes when something like this happened, right?

However, Luke was as cold as he had always been. She could hardly see any other emotions in his eyes.

Luca was confused, and she lay down on the bed.
