Chapter 1240 She Could Not Love Him

Luca was cleaning up the coffee table. She was quite surprised when she heard Luke's praise.

He had always been a man of few words, especially when talking about other people.

Luca did not expect that the plate of spaghetti would receive his approval.

She took out a plastic bag from under the coffee table, and it was filled with Tommy's favorite snacks. She put the remaining fruit from the plate inside the bag too.

If Tommy liked those snacks, Lanie and Rainie would like them too. That was why she bought triple the usual quantity of snacks from the supermarket.

While Luca was done cleaning the coffee table, she heard Luke ask her," Where is your younger brother?"

When he noticed that they were walking out of the neighborhood together the last time, he could tell that they were living together.

"He's away on a business trip," Luca answered calmly. Business trips were always the best excuse.

Luke twirled another forkful of spaghetti, blew on it to cool it down a little, and carefully put it into his mouth. After chewing it slowly, he said, "You didn't write that on your resume."

Luca did not know what he was talking about. "Write what?" "That you have a younger brother," Luke said. He had always thought that Luca looked very different from her younger brother, and he could not have told that the two people were siblings had Luca not told him.

"I don't think that's necessary information, isn't it?" Luca said, not feeling guilty about the lie. She had always treated Amur as her younger brother.

If he decided to probe into the matter, she could easily find explanations for it too.

Fortunately, Luke did not ask any further questions.

The three children looked at each other, then shot a glance at their father and the person sitting on the couch. For some reason, the atmosphere was really awkward.

Should they ask something? That was what they thought, but no one asked anything despite the suspicions in their hearts.
