Chapter 2435
"Mm." Luca saw them too and immediately knew Allison's intentions.
She wanted to mend her relationship with Luke in the name of pleasing the children.
However, Luke would never trust her again considering that she had done such a ridiculous thing.
Tommy happily ran in and held Luca's hand. "Ms. Luca, Ms. Luca! Did you know that Daddy is takingus on vacation later this afternoon?"
"I know." Luca stroked his head gently and smiled.novelbin
"This is wonderful! I didn't expect the wish I made during the New Year to come true!" Tommy said witha wide smile on his face.
Luca was curious and asked him, "Wish? What wish did you make?"
"I made a wish that Daddy would take us on a trip, and..." He paused, almost saying what he wanted tosay.
"What else?" Luca wanted to know his wishes and see if there was a chance to make them come true.
Tommy smiled and shook his head. His other wish was that Luca would soon admit her true identityand assume her rightful place as their Mommy.
"Ms. Luca, if I tell you, my wish won't come true," he quipped.
"That's true. You have to keep your wish well and it'll come true one day." Luca touched Tommy's head.
Tommy nodded hard as he believed that his wish would come true someday and their family would bereunited.
"Ms. Luca, have you packed your bags?" Tommy asked.
"I'm all packed. Let's go and have lunch." Luca took Tommy's hand and was about to leave.
Tommy looked at the two bags and asked, "What are these?"
"These are gifts from your grandma. Do you want to see them?" Luca said as she let go of Tommy'shand and placed the two bags on the floor.
After all, Allison bought them for the kids. Even if she had an ulterior movie, the kids should still take alook at them.
Tommy took a glance at the contents of the bag but did not move.
"There's a lot more at the bottom of the bag. Why don't you take a look?" Luca asked when she saw hisreaction.
Tommy picked up the toy at the top with a detested expression and said, "I don't even like to play withthese toys. I bet Lanie and Rainie wouldn't be interested either."
Luca felt a little resigned when she heard Tommy's antipathy words.
These toys that Allison bought were indeed suitable for children of Tommy's age, but it did not meanthat Tommy would like to play with them.
Although he was not as motivated to learn as Lanie, he was more interested in puzzle games. They didnot have any games that required no thinking at home.
Even the Normans' playroom did not have these types of toys.
The children's favorite toys, like the ones in the Normans' toy room, were mostly educational-type toys.They would buy those for them if they shopped for new toys for the kids.
The kids were not interested in Superman or Barbie dolls...
"You don't like these?" Luca sighed in embarrassment.
"Ms. Luca, you know that we don't like to play with these kinds of toys. Why don't we donate these tothe children in the orphanage after the New Year? Our teacher said that the orphans are poor and needour Daddy and Mommy to support them," Tommy said.
"Okay, we'll send them over when we come back from our trip." Luca nodded and returned the bags tothe shelf.
"Young Master Tommy is so kind." Aunt Neile sighed when she overheard their conversation.
The Crawfords put a lot of thought into the children's education. Luke's three kids would never actselfish and hoard everything. Take the toys that Allison got them as an example. They kept quiet andleft them where they were even if they did not like them.
They would think of the people in need when it came to things that they did not use. It was a wonderfulfamily life education.
Tommy grinned and took Luca's hand. "Ms. Luca, I'm so hungry. Shall we go eat?"
"Okay, Aunt Neile. Is it time to eat?" Luca asked.
Aunt Neile nodded and responded, "Lunch is ready. You can eat anytime."
"Come on, let's eat." Luca took Tommy's hand, and they left the storage room to go to the dining room.
Luke, Lanie, and Rainie were already sitting at the dining table waiting for them.
Aunt Neile immediately went into the kitchen and served them their lunch.
Luca and Tommy sat down. Before they started eating, Tommy looked at Luke and said, "Daddy,Grandma sent us a lot of toys. Will you and Ms. Luca give them to the children in the orphanage?"
"You don't like them?" Luke looked at his youngest son.
"We don't like to play with whatever Grandma gave us." Tommy shook his head and looked at hissiblings. "Lanie, Rainie, do you want to take a look?"
"Not interested," Lanie said coolly.
He trusted Tommy when he said that they were not toys that they would be interested in.
Since Tommy did not like them, he and Rainie would not either.
Tommy looked at Luke.
Luke said, "In half a month, T Corporation will hold a charity event and will be sending a batch of goodsto the orphanage in the city. We'll send the toys there together." "Okay, Daddy," Rainie said. She wouldalways go along and participate in these activities. She felt sympathetic when she saw the orphans.
Rainie was happy to be able to help them.
After they ate, Luke put the children's packed luggage into the car. Luke took Lliam along because thefour of them had a lot of luggage.
They left in two cars and officially set off.
Luca glanced at the navigation and saw that Luke's input destination was X City. She looked at him andasked, "Mr. Crawford, are we going to X City?"
Luke nodded and responded, "Yeah."
Old Master Crawford was actually from X City. He followed the call of the country, brought his wife andchildren to A City to build a life, and finally settled down in A City.
He originally planned to go back to X City after the New Year to check out the terrain over the ancestralhall and then remodel it. It was Allison who moved his plan forward.
Luca long knew that the Crawfords were from X City, but she asked, "Why are you going back to XCity?"
"The tourism industry in X City has developed, and the Crawfords' ancestral hall is going to be rebuilt.The elders of the ancestral hall proposed to have T Corporation help design a drawing so that they canrebuild it according to the drawing and make it one of the local tourist attractions. Old Master Crawfordasked me to go back when I had time to spare for a site visit and then come up with a design drawing. Iplan to go there since we have some time now. After the site visit, we can treat it as a vacation andspend the rest of our days there in a carefree manner," Luke explained.
Luca nodded. She knew that Old Master Crawford deeply valued his roots.
She had seen Old Master Crawford hosting people from X City during her years at Crawford Manor.Those people looked for Old Master Crawford to discuss the construction of ancestral halls and villagedevelopment.
Old Master Crawford would warmly welcome them every single time.
It was clear as day that Old Master Crawford attached great importance to the development of X City.
Luke taking on this job would make Old Master Crawford look good.
