Luca wanted to let the kids relax for a bit and not rush to finish their homework.

However, she thought that she might kill their motivation to do homework and perhaps become lazy in the future, so she let them go upstairs and do their homework.

The kids did not need her to stick with them to guide them, so she went into her study and continued her research.

The antidote she was researching was almost ready, and when she was free during the new year, she would be able to analyze all the ingredients and do the rationing.

Time passed quickly when she was busy. The timed alarm on her phone rang, and only then did she realize that it was half-past ten.

After standing up and stretching, she quickly left the study.

Luca first walked up to Luke's bedroom to take a look. He had not come back yet.

It seemed like he was still working at T Corporation.

She then walked to each of the kids' bedrooms and gently pushed the door open. After seeing that they were all in bed, she returned to her room.

After washing up, she opened the bedroom door once again to take a look at the opposite bedroom.

Luke was not back yet.

Luca sighed softly and went downstairs to check on the food in the kitchen. Although she kept it insulated, it still got a bit cold.

She did not dare heat it up again because she did not know when Luke would return.

If she heated it too much, it would affect the taste.

Luca sat on the couch and watched the midnight news report while waiting for Luke to return.

An hour later, she heard the sound of a car coming from the front yard.

Luca stood up and looked toward the window to see Luke slowly making his way to the house.
