Seeing how Lanie interrupted her, Luca reckoned that Luke had told the kids something.

Was he trying to hide the fact that he was going to the hospital?

Before Luca could voice her doubts, Aunt Neile seemed to have just remembered something. She nodded and quickly said, “Yes, Mr. Crawford is at the company. He'll be working until late at night today, so he won't be back for dinner. Ms. Craw, why don't you have dinner first?"

"Okay." She nodded without questioning further.

Even if the children were deliberately hiding it from her, there was nothing she could do. Besides, she would feel bad exposing the children's lies.

"Let's eat, then. Young Master Blanche, Young Master Tommy, and Ms. Rainie, go wash your hands." After saying that, Aunt Neile turned to walk into the kitchen to prepare the food.

Luca followed Aunt Neile into the kitchen to help.

"Aunt Neile, are you hiding something?" Luca asked.

Aunt Neile was startled. Then, she smiled and shook her head. "Ms. Craw, I'm not hiding anything."

Before Luca could expose her lies, she heard her say, "Mr. Crawford is really working overtime. Don't think about it too much."

"Alright," replied Luca. It was impossible for her to not overthink.

Was Luke really working overtime?

The thought of him at the hospital and her not knowing anything going on there made her feel even more uneasy.

However, if Aunt Neile and the children both refused to say anything, there was nothing she could do.

Luca did not bring it up again.

After dinner, Luca checked the children's homework.
