Female Novel
Chapter 2408
Sophian was surprised when she heard how Allison described Bianca.
Sophian had always thought that successful men like Luke preferred sexy and alluring women. She didnot expect he would like women who were pure and innocent.
She lowered her head and looked at her body figure. There was no way her curvy figure could lookinnocent. She could only change her makeup style to make her look that way.
“I got it," replied Sophian.
Allison raised her brows, looked at her, and asked, "Although Bianca looks innocent, her tricks aren'tinnocent at all. She found ways to get closer to Luke and gave birth to two children. Only then was sheacknowledged as his wife. So, let me tell you, he might not like pure and innocent women. It's just thather tricks happened to work on him."
Sophian wanted to tell her that being good at wheedling was considered amazing too as long as shecould attract Luke.
However, Sophian dared not to say such things in front of Allison when she had shown so much hatredand disdain for Bianca.
Then, Allison added, "I know there's another woman with Luke now. I know what the woman looks like.I assume that's the kind of woman Luke likes. Let's talk about it again when the time comes."
Sophian cheered up a little. It would be much easier with Allison's help.
"Thank you, Ms. Allison." Sophian gave Allison a sweet smile.
Allison pulled a long face and reminded her, "Keep in mind how I'm helping you now. Don't let Luke findout about this no matter whether you succeed or not."
"Okay, Ms. Allison." Sophian understood why she would remind her of this.
Allison said, "If you succeed, remember that I'm your mother-in-law. You'll have to think about me nomatter what you do in the future. If you fail, remember that I'm your senior. I helped you to achieve yourdream, so don't burn your bridges."
Sophian nodded vigorously.
She thought that it would be easier for her to succeed with Allison helping her.
Allison looked at Sophian's face. She could not help but let out a sigh. A face full of collagen surelooked pretty. When would her face be able to go back to how it looked before?
Allison touched her face wistfully.
Sophian noticed a hint of melancholy flashing across Allison's eyes. Allison often had this expressionon her face when she was in Seoul. She walked toward her and said in a soft voice, “Ms. Allison, don'tworry. The doctor is good at his job. Many celebrities have gone to look for him to get their faces done.He has a lot of clinical experience. I'll accompany you back to Seoul after the new year to get thesurgery done. You'll be able to become beautiful again after the surgery."
"You sure know how to say nice things. Everything you say is what I want to hear, and your words arepleasing to the ears," replied Allison. She liked people who were honey-tongued.
Previously, Bianca would only say what she should be saying. She would behave submissively whenshe did not say anything. However, she would refuse to listen to what someone told her, which wasannoying.
Sophian slightly pursed her lips. She concealed her feelings and secretly rejoiced.
After spending some time with Allison, she knew Allison was the kind of person who did not like makinga fuss over petty things.
That was why Sophian did not reveal her joy.
In the villa.
After Luca knew Luke would be taking Old Master Crawford and the kids here this morning, sheprepared some homemade snacks and dessert early in the morning.
She used sugar substitutes to make the desserts so that the old master could eat them, and it was alsoto ensure Old Master Crawford could enjoy himself without worrying.
Luca still remembered that Old Master Crawford liked the desserts she made when they went to theRayne family's house. That was why she prepared these for him.
Luca let out a sigh of relief after she was done preparing everything. She picked up a croissant andtook a bite of it. She enjoyed the buttery taste of it.
She had been busy all morning, so she had yet to have breakfast. She made the croissants last night,and it was her dinner. She could not finish them all, so she left some for today. Although the croissantwas not freshly baked, it tasted fine. She took a few bites of it and poured herself a glass of milk.
Luca took a bite of croissant and took a sip of the milk. She had enough for her breakfast. Then, sheplaced the other croissants back into the fridge.
She sat on the sofa in the living room with the TV turned on. The channel was replaying the show lastnight.
She watched it yesterday.
Luca fell asleep on the sofa while she watched TV. When she woke up, the New Year Gala had justfinished counting down. She received a message from Luke, and it was a New Year's greeting.
After she replied to Luke, she found out that he would be coming back tomorrow morning and did notask too much about it. Then, she took a shower and went to bed.
Hence, she missed out on a lot of interesting performances.
Luca watched the New Year Gala and suddenly heaved a sigh. What she had missed out on was notonly this year's New Year Gala. She had not had the chance to watch it for the past few years.
Then, she heard some noises coming from outside while she was lamenting.novelbin
Luca immediately picked up the remote control and turned down the volume. She put on her cottonslippers and walked to the door. She saw that Luke was helping Old Master Crawford wa over, and thethree kids were following beside Luke.
Luke noticed that Luca was standing at the door waiting for them. It warmed his heart. It felt like homewhen Luca was here.
Luca stood at the door, welcoming them back. Luke could not wait to run toward her and give her awarm hug.
“Luke, I can walk by myself." Old Master Crawford teased him when he noticed the slight change inLuke's emotions.
"Grandpa, it's snowing heavily. Be careful." Luke put on a cold expression on his face. Even though hegot teased, he kept himself calm.
Old Master Crawford shook his head and mumbled to himself, "Let's see how much longer he can holdon."
Tommy was the fastest. He ran swiftly toward Luca and said, "Ms. Luca, we're back. I missed you."
Then, he grabbed Luca's hand and constantly rubbed it, showing how much he had missed her.
Luca did not know if she should cry or laugh when she looked at what Tommy was doing. She strokedhis head and said, "Hey, aren't you back now? Get in there. I made your favorite snacks."
"Really?" Tommy's eyes lit up as he ran into the house happily.
After Lanie and Rainie greeted Luca, they headed to the living room too.
They were children, after all. No matter how mature they were, they would not be able to resist goodfood.
Old Master Crawford looked at the children. He secretly felt happy for them. Luca was the only onewho could make the kids happy other than Bianca.
"Old Master Crawford, Happy New Year." Luca carefully helped Old Master Crawford up by holdinganother side of his hand.
Old Master Crawford was delighted when the two of them were by his side, helping him. Then, he saidin a cheerful tone, "Happy New Year, Luca."
Luca glanced at Luke and blinked her eyes as a greeting to him. After Luke saw it, Luca shifted hergaze and helped Old Master Crawford to the living room.
The living room was comfortable with the heater on. Old Master Crawford sat on the sofa. Luca said,"Old Master Crawford, why don't you take off your jacket? It'll be too warm for you later."
"Okay." Old Master Crawford leaned his walking cane on the sofa and took off his jacket.
Luca took the jacket he handed to her. After she hung the jacket, Tommy, who could not find thesnacks, came running toward her. Then, he lifted his head and asked, "Ms. Luca, where are thesnacks? I can't find them."
