Female Novel
Chapter 2016
"During this time, I'll have Rain help monitor Luca." Luke was not worried about anything else. He wasjust worried that Luca would disappear.
As such, he had arranged for Rain to watch over Luca.
If she disappeared because of this, he was not sure where to find her.
"Okay." Jason did not worry when he saw that Luke planned everything out.
Luca had been hiding in the room and did not come out. She looked at the gorgeous decorations. Theemotions that filled her heart were guilt, helplessness, and sadness about their upcoming separation.
In the evening, Luke knocked on her door and asked, "Are you in there?"
When she heard his voice, Luca got up from the sofa slowly and went to open the door for him.
"Mr. Crawford, is everything okay?" she asked.
Luke raised his head slightly. He found that her expression was normal, and her eyes were not red. Inthree years, she had grown a lot.
A woman who used to cry out of frustration when faced with difficulties could now face everythingcalmly.
She could even face him calmly.
If he could, Luke wanted to tell her that she did not have to act so tough.
However, he could not tell her what was on his mind. "You seemed off since you came back from MGroup. What's wrong?"
Luke's words startled Luca. ‘Didn't he long ago notice that something was wrong?'
That tender was placed in the safe to trap her. No one has been on the second floor of the villa, and themaid was trustworthy. He would surely suspect her since she was the only one with access.
"No, I'm just tired." Luca could not figure out what was going on with Luke. She got more suspicious buthad to pretend that nothing happened.
Luke frowned. He was worried about the injury on her waist. "Is your injury doing alright?"
"It's just a little tiring since we got up early and ran around all morning." Luca shook her head. Shecould not use the wound as an excuse because he would definitely send her to the hospital if he foundout.
Although he had not expressed his love for her recently, Luca was not a heartless person. She knewthat he cared about her.
"How do you feel now?" Luke asked. When Ray found out that he had won the M Group project, heinvited them to his place for dinner to celebrate.
"I just need some rest. Mr. Crawford, what do you need me to do?" Luca looked at him.
"Put on something thicker and go out with me," Luke said. He did not tell her that they were going toRay's house.
‘Go out? Where are we going?'
Although Luca was apprehensive, she nodded because she believed that even if she did not knowwhere they were going, he would not use the same means against the fake Bianca on her.
If he wanted to deal with her, he would have done it when they were in the car. He did not have to wait.
"Okay." Luca suppressed the unease in her heart, nodded in agreement, and went out with him.
After she changed, Luca opened the door. At that moment, Jason was standing in the living room of thesuite. When he saw her come out, he smiled and said, "Dr. Craw, I heard from the boss that you're alittle tired. Are you feeling better now?"
"I'm doing much better. Thank you for your concern." Luca nodded. She noticed the joy in Jason'sexpression.
That was fair. The employees of T Corporation had been busy for several months and finally got theproject. With this, T Corporation's crisis was successfully eliminated.
"That's good."
As soon as Jason finished speaking, Luke opened his door. He had already changed into a morecasual outfit. He was nothing like his serious self in the corporate world. There was a more refinedsoftness to him now.
Luca lowered her gaze. The more she looked at him, the more reluctant she felt.
"Let's go." Luke looked at Luca and noticed that she did not dare to look at him. He felt helpless.
"Boss, I'll push you," Jason said quickly.
Luca did not speak and followed the two of them out of the hotel. They got into the car.
She noticed that the car they got in was not the car arranged by the hotel in the morning. The car thatpicked them up was much more luxurious.
The curtains on the car were closed, so she could not see where she was going and what road theywere taking.
Luca closed her eyes. She was fine no matter where the man was about to take her. She betrayed himand deserved to be punished. She should not be nervous about what was to come.
Although she knew Luke would not hurt her, she thought that it would be a good thing if Luke couldpersonally take her life.
Even if she could never see her kids, including Nyla, the pain of being alive could at least disappear.
Luke did not speak since she kept quiet. He continued to deal with T Corporation-related matters in thecar.
Although the acquisition of the project had stabilized the hearts of T Corporation's investors andshareholders, he had never stopped working on acquiring T Corporation's scattered shares.
He had a lot of matters involving T Corporation and Dr. Albus to deal with.
Luke looked away from the screen and glanced at Luca, who was dozing off.
The atmosphere in the car was silent. Jason, who was in the front passenger seat, glanced behind himand found that the curtain was drawn. They were completely isolated.
The two people behind were not saying a word. It was so quiet that it seemed like no one was sittingbehind.
Since his boss did not speak to Dr. Craw, Jason could not say anything either. He picked up his phoneand started chatting with Sue. It has been a few days since he came to Russia. He missed Sue and histwo precious daughters.
The car drove for a while.
The driver said to Luke, "Mr. Crawford, we're already here. You can get down now."
Luca opened her eyes. Although she had closed her eyes just now, she could feel the speed of the carand estimate how far the car had traveled through the driving time.
She glanced at the time. Based on the distance, they were not in the suburbs.
She opened the car door, looked at the luxurious villa in front of her, and looked back at Luke, who wasalso looking at her...
Their eyes met, and Luca immediately turned her gaze away. She got out of the car and closed thedoor.
She had been here before. They were at Ray's home.
It was not so much a villa but more so an ancient castle. After all, this villa had existed here for morethan a hundred years and was owned by generations of their family.
It had become one of the local landmarks.
Luke got out of the car with the help of Jason and the driver.
The driver explained, "Sorry, Mr. Crawford. I'm supposed to drive you to the house, but the driveway iscurrently under maintenance, so you can only make the way over. As soon as you go through thatsection, there'll be a car to pick you up."
"It's fine," Luke said.
The entrance of the villa was slowly pushed open by a maid. Luca followed behind Luke, and theywalked in together.novelbin
It was a gorgeous European-style garden, but it was winter now. After the flowers in the garden weretrimmed, they entered a dormant state. The thick snow was pressing on the tree branches.
