Female Novel
Chapter 2084
Luke did not say a word while he looked at Luca who was quietly closing her eyes and resting.
After traveling with Luca a few times, Luke could feel that Luca was especially quiet when she wasbeside him. Luca would take the chance to get some rest once she got into the mode of transport whenthey were traveling long distances.
Luke took his eyes off her.
The stewardess started to distribute the meals to the passengers after the plane had reached itscruising altitude as compensation for the flight delay.
Luke made a silent hand gesture when he watched the stewardess carrying the tray and walkingtoward him.
The stewardess noticed the woman beside him was taking a nap with a blanket covered over her. Shesecretly complimented him for his consideration of the woman next to him. Then, she handed the menuto Luke.
Luke shook his head to tell her that he did not need it.
The stewardess nodded and continued to ask the next passenger.
The flight took almost ten hours. An announcement was made when the plane was ready to land.
Luca slowly woke up. She had been sleeping for almost ten hours and felt drowsy. She was unable tounderstand what the situation was now.
She looked at Luke in a daze, who was sitting next to her. Only then did she remember that they wereon a plane.
The announcement was repeated once again, and Luca learned that they were about to land.
It took almost ten hours to travel from Russia to the airport in A City. She recalled that she fell asleepafter she got on the plane, and she could not remember if she had woken up in between. Had she beensleeping for almost ten hours then?
In her sleep, she had a sweet dream, not a nightmare.
"You're awake?" Luke asked. He placed a glass of milk in front of her. "You haven't eaten or drunkanything for ten hours. Drink some milk first. The plane is about to land."
Luca only felt hungry after Luke said so.
Even though she usually slept on a comfortable bed, she had to rely on those medicines to make hersleep. She would not be able to sleep that long either.
“Thank you.” Luca's voice sounded a little hoarse after waking up. She took the milk and gulped itdown.
She needed to replenish her energy.
After she finished drinking the milk, the stewardess came to inform the passengers that the plane wasabout to land and reminded them to fasten their seatbelts. The stewardess saw the glass that Luca washolding in her hands. She smiled and said, “Miss, you're finally awake. Please give me the glass."
Luca handed the empty glass to the stewardess. Even the stewardess knew that she had beensleeping for ten hours...
She thought that it was to Luke's credit that she was able to sleep soundly.
Luca felt safe having Luke by her side.
She was aware a long time ago of the fact that Luke was her cure.
The plane successfully landed at the airport in A City.
Luca followed behind Luke and got out of the plane.
What welcomed them was the snow fluttering down from the sky.
Luca could not help but be dazzled by the beauty of the white snow in the air. She had already missedthe first snow that she had been looking forward to while they were making their way to Russia.
Luca looked at Luke's tall figure from behind. Before this, she was still looking forward to spending timewith him and the kids on the day of the first snowfall.
However.
Luca could not help but feel upset. She only wanted to reminisce about past sweetness on the firstsnowfall of the year.
However, God did not give her the chance to do so.
After she got off the plane, Jason arranged for them to get their luggage back successfully.
Jason looked at Luke and reported to him, "Boss, Zander is already waiting at exit A."
"Okay." Luke shifted his gaze and looked at the other employees. "Thanks for the hard work all thiswhile. All of you may take a day off tomorrow and come back to work the day after tomorrow."
"Thank you, Boss." All of them were surprised to hear that Luke was allowing them to take a day offwork. They returned home with warm smiles on their faces after thanking Luke.
Jason's house was out of Luke's way, so he went out of the airport and hailed a ride back home.
Even if his destination was right on Luke's way, he would not dare to be the third wheel.
Luke looked at Luca and said in a low voice, "Come on. Let's go home."
Luca's ears were flushing red when she heard what he said.
He said they would go home.
She walked out of the airport and kept up with Luke's pace.
It was cold out there as the wind whistled. Despite the glacier winter wind, Luca's heart was especiallywarm because of what Luke said.
She was way past the age when she would blush just because of a few words.
However, Luke's words would always make her face redden.novelbin
Perhaps, it was not because of her age nor the words he said that made her blush but it was him.
She caught up with Luke's pace as she watched Luke walk toward Zander's car.
Zander smiled and greeted them, “Mr. Crawford, Ms. Craw, welcome home."
Luca nodded at Zander embarrassedly. Although what Zander said was not as overwhelming as Luke'swords, they were heart-warming too. "Zander, it's been a long time."
Zander strolled to the back of the car and opened the trunk. Then, he said cheerfully, "Yes. I didn'texpect Mr. Crawford and you to be off for a business trip for such a long time. Besides, Mr. Crawfordeven had his plaster cast removed."
He was surprised to see Luke walking toward him.
Luke lifted his luggage and placed it in the trunk after it was opened. Then, he took Luca's luggage andput it in too.
Zander thought of helping him, but Luke was so quick that it only took him a while to put two big piecesof luggage in the trunk. "Young Master, I should be the one doing this."
"Never mind. Let's go," said Luke. Zander had been working as a driver for the Crawford family foryears. He was getting old, so Luke would try his best not to trouble him with such heavy lifting jobs if hecould do it himself.
"Yes," replied Zander. After he closed the trunk, he scurried forward and opened the back seat door.
Luke let Luca get into the car first. Luke signaled Zander to close the door after Luca bent down andclimbed into the car, while he walked to the other side of the car, opened the door, and got in.
Zander walked to the driver's seat, opened the door, and got in. He fastened the seat belt and asked,"Young Master, are you going back to the villa or Crawford Manor?"
"Villa," replied Luke. He planned to go to Crawford Manor tomorrow to join Old Master Crawford fordinner.
"Alright, Young Master." Zander drove and left the airport.
Luke shot a glance at Luca, who was sitting beside her. Her face was blushing red as though she had afrostbite on her face. Then, his children came into his mind.
Tommy and the others had been looking for him all throughout. They would always ask about Luca'scondition.
Luke was injured, and Luca no longer had the time and energy to take care of the kids. That was whyhe sent them to Crawford Manor.
It had been a month since then.
The kids must miss Luca a lot.
Luke said, "The kids are going to school tomorrow, right?"
Zander knew why Luke was asking him this, so he answered, "Yes, Mr. Crawford. The school doesn'tusually close unless there's a blizzard."
"Don't send them to Crawford Manor after they finish school tomorrow. Bring them to the villa," saidLuke. The kids missed Luca, and it was time for them to meet her again.
Zander smiled. He glanced at the two of them through the rearview mirror. "That's wonderful. YoungMaster Blanche, Young Master Tommy, and Ms. Rainie will be very happy. All they have in mind are thetwo of you, Young Master Luke and Ms. Craw."
Luca blinked her eyes. She was not surprised to know that the kids were missing her.
