Chapter 2514

Luke ignored his request and gave Luca a piece of steak instead.

“No, thank you, Mr. Crawford." Luca turned to the side with her lunch box as it was already filled to thebrim. She was afraid that she might not be able to finish if he kept giving her more.

Not to mention, Gordan was here.

Although he knew about her relationship with Luke, she was not used to PDA.

"I have too much. I can't finish. Help eat some of mine." Luke thought that Luca should eat more asgaining a little more weight would make her nicer to hug.

"Mr. Crawford, I won't be able to finish it either. it'll be a waste." Luca protested as her neck turned red.

She knew how big Luke's appetite was. If he kept giving her his food, there would not be enough left forhim.

His workload was much heavier than hers. She could not let him go hungry!

Gordan shook his head in disdain at their lovey-dovey interaction.

After seeing how Luca refused to accept the food Luke gave her, Gordan pushed his lunch box closerand smiled, "Luke, this isn't enough for me. If you think you have too much, you can give me some."

Luke glared at him as a warning.

Gordan then awkwardly took back his lunch box. "I'm just kidding, hahaha. I have enough. Plus, I don'tusually share food with others!"

Luca could not contain her laughter upon seeing Gordan's reaction.

Compared to the times he lashed out at Vivian, he was like a mouse encountering a cat in front ofLuke. She could not help but be glad at the sight of it, served him right!

If Vivian were here to witness this, would she have laughed too?

Luca's smile vanished at the thought of Vivian. Perhaps Vivian would be the only person who would notfind joy in this.

Since he was someone she loved dearly, she would only feel heartbroken, right?

Hopefully, her wounds would heal over time, so she could clear her mind and get on with her life.

"What are you thinking about?" Luke interrupted her train of thought with a frown after noticing that shewas so deep in thought that she did not even eat.

"Nothing." Luca came to her senses.

Luke raised his chin slightly and told her, “Focus on eating and don't get distracted."

“Okay." Luca obeyed his orders and took another bite.

Gordan trembled as he mourned his misery. What did he do to deserve being the third wheel?

The sight of them sent chills down Gordan's spine. Was he... jealous?

No, it could not be!

He always loved freedom, and he hated the idea of being tied down. How could he be jealous of theirrelationship?

Being handcuffed to someone did not suit him, let alone after losing contact for over three years. Therewas no way he was jealous.

Luca noticed that this time, Gordan was the one staring into space with his lunch box in one hand andhis utensils in the other. She said, “Mr. Norton?"

“Huh?" Gordan came back to his senses.novelbin

“Why are you zoning out?" Luca asked.

“I was just thinking about work, hahaha." Gordan let out a hollow laugh to eliminate his embarrassment.

“Don't mind him. Just eat." Luke urged Luca as he did not like it when Luca gave another manattention.

Even if that man was a good friend of his who had no ill intentions.

Luca noticed that Luke was jealous by reading between the lines, so she stopped talking and just ateinstead.

After lunch, Luke took Gordan back upstairs.

On the other hand, Luca had walked several laps around her office to digest the food.

When she thought of Gordan, Vivian would come to mind, so she decided to just ignore the two.

They had bitter feelings toward each other, especially Vivian. Perhaps not knowing about hiswhereabouts was best for her as ignorance was bliss.

However, would Vivian be able to walk away just because they were no longer involved?

There was no guarantee, but the good thing was that it was Vivian's choice to make.

In Luca's opinion, if two people were meant to be, they would end up together no matter what obstaclescame their way.

Love was a practice based on fate and the decisions made by two people. It depended on themwhether their efforts would pay off or not, so it was best for onlookers like her to not meddle in theiraffairs so much.

Luca sat on the sofa and made up her mind to ignore them.

No matter what Gordan did, she had no intention of telling Vivian, but not doing so would be a hasslefor Luke.

Besides, Gordan had been pestering Luke non-stop by following him everywhere he went.

Luca glanced at the time and decided to rest for half an hour, but there was a knock on the door.

“Come in." It seemed like resting was not in the cards for her.

Tina pushed the door open and walked in. “Dr. Craw, are you free?"

“I am. Have a seat," said Luca as she knew that Tina had something to tell her and it was about Amur.

Tina smiled gratefully and closed the door behind her. Then, she sat on the sofa with her hands folded,seemingly ill at ease.

Luca noticed and said with concern, "Tina, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. I just wanted someone to talk to," said Tina. She had always been one to stick to the rulesand regulations of the company without letting her private affairs intervene in her work, and neither wasshe one to take sides. Hence, the people in other departments liked her very much, but at the sametime, they would not get too close to her.

Thus, she had no one to talk to.

Moreover, Tina knew that if she told anyone about her troubles, there was a high chance of it beingspread throughout the company in no time. Hence, she could not tell them anything.

Luca was an exception.

She trusted Luca the most in the entire company. This sort of trust was hard to put into words.

She knew that Luca would not tell anyone after listening to her, so she wanted to come over for a chat.

"You don't look so good." Luca pointed out. She knew that it was because of Amur.

Truthfully, she knew that Tina and Amur had only met a few times, but Tina had become so deeplyinvested...

Luca did not see that coming.

"Do I look that bad?" Tina touched her face instantly.

She had been going to bed early recently with the help of Luca's sleeping pills. As long as she tookthem, she would fall asleep the moment she lay down.

Although she would often dream of Amur, at least she got sufficient sleep.

Plus, she would put makeup on every morning, so her complexion should not look too bad.

"No, you look great. You must have taken the sleeping pills. However, your overall energy doesn't seemtoo good. Are you still thinking about him?" Luca touched on the topic first.

She may not be a counselor, but she knew that to untie the knot in Tina's heart, the elephant in theroom had to be addressed.
