"Alright, Ms. Luca. I promise!" Tommy behaved himself well in front of his biological mother. He stepped forward and hooked his pinky finger with Luca's pinky, telling her that he would keep his promise.

"Okay. Come on, tidy up your books and toys. I've prepared some snacks. Once you're done, you can come downstairs to eat," said Luca with a smile on her face.

Even though the three of them were the young masters and young lady of the Crawford family, they were taught to handle their own affairs from a young age and not rely on others.

Hence, they obediently gathered their books and toys and headed upstairs.

Luca turned to look at Aunt Neile. "Aunt Neile, is Mr. Crawford upstairs?"

"Yes, he is. Mr. Gale came a while ago. He's been busy upstairs." Aunt Neile nodded. Half an hour ago, Luke even had her bring a cup of coffee to him upstairs.

"Alright." Luca nodded. She rose to her feet and made her way up the stairs.

Since Gale would usually report to Luke when there were matters to attend to, Luca did not find it strange. After she turned around and walked up the stairs, she took a quick glance at the children first.

All three children were sitting at their desks, picking up the plastic dust jackets for books and carefully covering their books given by Luca.

Luca smiled. She did not disturb them. Then, she turned around and headed to Luke's bedroom.

The door was closed. She knocked on it, "Can I come in?"

"Yes," answered Luke.

Luca pushed the door open. When she thought about what she needed to discuss later, she entered and closed the door behind her.

"Luke, there's something I need to talk to you about," said Luca. Considering what Myra had said earlier, she felt it was necessary to inform Luke.

Even though she had not displayed any intimate behavior with Luke in public, Myra bore a deep hatred for her. She might try to dig up something.

Luca did not want to cause trouble for Luke. All she could do was to share these matters with him.

Luke put down his pen and looked at her with his deep eyes.
