Chapter 1298
Chapter 1298 She Was No Longer the Bianca From Before
Luca brought Tommy back to the hotel room.
The child started to yawn the moment Luca closed the door. She turned around and saw the sleepinessin his eyes. "When is your Daddy coming back?" She patted his head and asked him.
Tommy shook his head, indicating that he did not know.
Luca did not want to keep Tommy up when he was already so tired. She decided to let Tommy sleepfirst while informing Jason about it.
"If that's the case, let's go to bed," she said. Then, she went to the bed and pulled the blanket back.
Tommy grinned happily and clambered onto the bed.
After Luca tucked him in, she said, "You can sleep first. I'll go and take a shower before sleeping. Isthat alright?"
"Yes, Ms. Luca." Tommy closed his eyes obediently.
Luca dimmed the lights and went into the bathroom with a new set of pajamas and her phone. She senta message to Jason, telling him that Tommy was resting in her room, then took a quick shower.
After taking a shower and changing her clothes, she stepped out of the bathroom. Tommy did notmove, and Luca guessed that he had already fallen asleep.
Luca got on the other side of the bed. After she lay down, Tommy moved closer to her.
She lowered her head slightly and looked at the pair of big eyes. Those innocent eyes looked verymuch like Luke's eyes, and Luca could imagine that they would be incredibly soulful after Tommy grew
up.
She was reminded of her daughter Nyla. Her eyes were like that too.
"Why aren't you asleep yet?" Luca asked as she stroked Tommy's back.
"I'm waiting for you to come and sleep with me." Tommy clung to her arm.
Luca chuckled softly. "Alright, let's sleep then."
"Ms. Luca, did you beat all the baddies?" Tommy nuzzled against the pillow. His eyes were transfixedon her.
Luca stopped stroking his back. When she looked into those round and big eyes, she could help herselfbut pinch his cheek. "Yes, the baddies have all run away. You don't have to be afraid anymore."
"I'm not afraid if you're with me, Ms. Luca," Tommy smiled and said.
"You're very brave, Tommy," Luca said as she patted his head. She was happy that Luke had done agood job in educating the child in the past three years.
Three years later, the boy was still as innocent as ever, but he was not spoiled.
"You're amazing, Ms. Luca, but why can't you tell anyone that you're a hero tonight?" Tommy asked.
Luca nodded. "No, you can't tell anyone."
"Why not?" Tommy asked curiously. Before Luca could reply, he continued, "Oh, I know, if other peopleknow that you're a hero, they'll come and disturb you, but you don't want to be disturbed. Just like thattime with Grandma..."
Luca was pleased that Tommy was understanding. "That's right, so I'm relying on you to keep it asecret for me. It's already late. You should sleep."
Tommy hugged Luca's arm tightly and closed his eyes." Good night, Ms. Luca."
"Good night." Luca lowered her head and kissed Tommy on the forehead.
Meanwhile, after Jason received Luca's message, he informed Luke about it.
"Is she already back at the hotel?" Luke asked. There were several people in the private room, thoughhe was the noblest and most attractive of them all.
"She's already back," Jason said.
Luke glanced at his phone and found that Luca did not inform him about it, as though she was trying toavoid him. In fact, she told Jason that Tommy was in her room instead of telling him directly.
He also received two more messages from his subordinates. One of the messages was a photo.
Luke zoomed into the photo. He narrowed his gaze when he looked at it carefully.
After his two subordinates lost Luca's trail, Luke asked them to stake out for Luca at the hotel. It wasunexpected that Luca came back to the hotel with another man.
Even though the screen was small, Luke could tell that the man was Luca's younger brother.
"What did she say when you asked her to babysit Tommy?" Luke asked.
Jason replied, "Dr. Craw said that she had to go to meet a friend, and it's not convenient for her to bringTommy along."
Luke put the phone away and took a sip of whisky. Was Amur the "friend" she mentioned?
The explanation seemed plausible, but Luke thought that there was something fishy about it.
The next morning, Luca woke up when the alarm rang.
With Tommy sleeping next to her, her sleep quality improved by a lot.
Perhaps she felt safe with him around...
After Luca helped Tommy wash up in the bathroom, she prepared to bring him downstairs for breakfast.When she opened the door, she found Amur standing outside.
"Why are you awake so early, Amur?" She asked doubtfully.
"I didn't sleep well, so I might as well stay up," Amur replied with a smile. He glanced at Tommy andcould tell that Tommy was her youngest child. Indeed, the boy looked a lot like his father.
Tommy looked at the man in front of him and asked, "Who is this, Ms. Luca?"
"His name is Amur. He's my younger brother," Luca said." Amur, this is Tommy, my boss's son."
Amur did not have a good impression of Luke, but he could not bring himself to hate the cute child. Hesmiled and greeted him, "Nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you, Uncle Amur," Tommy said, though he continued to ask, "Ms. Luca, why doesn'tUncle Amur look like you? He doesn't look like your younger brother."
Tommy noticed that Amur's ethnic features did not look like Luca's face.
Luca smiled. Luke asked the same question when he first met Amur.
Luca patted Tommy's head and said, "His parents aren't the same as mine, but we are indeed brotherand sister. Isn't that so, Amur?"
"Yes." Amur nodded. Even though he did not want to be introduced as Luca's younger brother, he knewthat he was only a younger brother to her, and there was nothing he could do to change that.
"Since you're already up, let's go and have breakfast," Luca said.
"Alright." Amur nodded.
The three people took the elevator to the restaurant. It was quite early and most of the hotel guestswere still asleep, so the restaurant was quite empty.
They took their food from the buffet line and sat at the same table.novelbin
Amur drank his coffee and asked, "What are you doing later?
"I'm here for off-site training, so I'll be attending a conference later. Have you forgotten?" Luca repliedwhile putting a straw in Tommy's glass of milk.
Amur nodded and looked at the child. "Are you going to bring him along?"
"Mr. Crawford will come and take him after he's awake," Luca explained. She knew that Amur wouldhave further questions, so she said, "I was babysitting Tommy yesterday night because Mr. Crawfordhad to attend a business dinner, n
Amur nodded, wondering if the babysitting included having him sleep over in his room.
Even though Tommy was indeed Luca's child, Luca was no longer the Bianca from before.
