Chapter 1251 Have Some Pity On My Daddy
Jason smiled wryly when he saw Tommy's frustrated expression. He shook his head and went back towork.
Five minutes later, he stood up and said to Tommy, "Hey, Little Mr.
Crawford, I can't do anything if you miss Ms. Luca, but I can bring you to someone else. Do you want togo?" "Is it Madam Tina?" Tommy asked.
Tommy chuckled. Luca and Tina were about the same age, but to Tommy, the former was a "Miss"while the latter was a "Madam."
Tina would lose her mind if she found out about it.
"Yes. I'll need to attend a meeting with Mr. Crawford in a while. Why don't you go to Madam Tina'soffice?" Jason said. He did not want to leave the young child alone in his office.
"Alright then." Even though Tommy missed Luca, he did not want to burden Jason with extra trouble.
Jason took his hand, and they left the office. After handing him to Tina, he rushed to Luke's office toremind him that the meeting was almost starting.novelbin
It was already half-past nine when the meeting ended.
Tina had taken good care of Tommy. She made sure that he ate dinner on time, and she also got somesupper delivered.
Luke officially got off work at ten o'clock. Tommy was already asleep on the couch in the secretary'soffice.
His heart melted when he saw Tommy sleeping soundly. Even though Tommy could be naughty attimes, he was Luke's youngest child, and Bianca had been through a lot by giving birth to the boy. Thatwas why Tommy was very special to him.
"Mr. Crawford," Tina stood up and greeted Luke when she saw him. She tried to keep her voice low sothat she would not wake the sleeping child up.
Luke nodded, walked over to the couch, removed the quilt that covered Tommy, and picked him up.
"Thank you for your hard work. You can go home," Luke said before leaving the secretary's office.
Tommy did not wake up even though he was picked up. Instead, he snuggled into Luke's arms.
The elevator took Luke down to the basement parking lot. He carefully placed Tommy on the back seat,fastened the seatbelt on him, then removed his coat and draped it over the boy.
After that, he sat in the driver’s seat and started the car.
Tommy was still fast asleep sitting in the backseat. In his dreams, he mumbled, "I miss you so much,Ms. Luca."
Luke was surprised. He looked at his son through the rear-view mirror and realized that he was sleep-talking.
He could not understand why Tommy was so fond of Luca, though he could guess that Tommy must befeeling very sad that he did not get to visit Luca today.
It was not a difficult request, but Luke had failed to fulfill it.
He thought for a while and turned the car around at the intersection.
Half an hour later, he parked his car under Luca's apartment.
Luke sat silently in the car. He was not sure why he drove all the way there. Was it to satisfy Tommy'swish?
However, it was already so late, and Tommy was already asleep. Going there would not make Tommyhappy.
Moreover, by the time Tommy woke up, he would have forgotten why he was angry in the first place.He was not worried that Tommy would bear a grudge against him.
Suddenly, Luke heard a slight noise coming from the backseat. He turned around and saw that Tommywas already awake. The boy rubbed his eyes and looked at his father, "Daddy, aren't we going home?"
After knowing that Luke did not force Luca to work overtime, Tommy had stopped being angry at hisfather.
Tommy realized that the car was not moving. He sat up, looked out of the window, and instantlyrecognized that they were in front of Luca's apartment.
"Daddy, are you here to visit Ms. Luca?" Tommy asked.
Luke remained silent.
"It must be already very late, isn't it? Ms. Luca is probably asleep by now. You shouldn't disturb her,Daddy," Tommy said.
Luke could see that Tommy was eager to meet Luca. He wondered who it was that had pestered him tocome here in the first place.
"Let's go home, Daddy," Tommy continued. Even though he wanted to meet Luca very much, he did notwant to disturb her while she was resting.
"Mm." Luke nodded and prepared to start the car.
A cab stopped in front of his car, and he had to wait for it to leave.
Tommy also noticed the cab.
Soon, a person stepped out of the cab.
Tommy's eyes widened. "Daddy, it's Ms. Luca! Ms. Luca isn't asleep yet!"
Luke thought that it was an incredible coincidence.
Tommy unfastened his seatbelt and wanted to get out of the car. "Daddy, I want to go and say hello toMs. Luca."
Luke did not move. He had locked the car doors, and Tommy was not able to open them on his own. Inhis desperation, Tommy wound down the window and waved at Luca. "Over here, Ms. Luca!"
Luca stopped walking. She thought that she had misheard. There was no other plausible explanationfor hearing Tommy's voice at this hour.
She turned around and noticed the luxury car parked behind the cab. A head poked out of the window,and she realized that she was not hallucinating.
Both Luke and Tommy were there.
"Ms. Luca! Ms. Luca!" Tommy waved even harder when he noticed that Luca was looking at him. Hesaid to Luke, "I want to go out, Daddy.”
Seeing that Luca had already turned around and was looking at them, Luke had no choice but tounlock the car doors.
Tommy hopped out of the car and ran toward Luca.
Luca was not sure how to react when she lowered her head and saw that Tommy was clinging onto herleg. "It's already so late. Why are you here?" "Daddy brought me here!" Tommy said as he looked atthe man who was still sitting in the driver's seat.
Luca looked at the man in the distance. Under the dim street light, she could only see the man'ssculpted chin.
The upper half of his face was shrouded in darkness. Luca could not see his eyes, but she could sensethat he was looking at her.
Her heart began to beat faster. A few years ago, Luke had gazed at her in the same manner.
Tommy asked her, "Ms. Luca, did you just get off work?" "Mm, yes." Luca nodded and turned her headto look at the child. She patted his head and, seeing that he was only wearing a thin shirt, told him," It'scold outside. You should get back into the car."
Tommy did not let go of her. Instead, he asked, "Ms. Luca, have you had dinner?" "Not yet." Luca didnot lie to the child.
"What a coincidence, Ms. Luca. Daddy hasn't eaten his dinner either. Why don't you cook somethingfor him?" Tommy said with a grin on his face.
"Well..." She hesitated. The first thing that came into her mind was, 'Again?' "Ms. Luca, Daddy was in ameeting since the afternoon. The only thing he ate today was a corndog at the school carnival. Havesome pity on him!" Tommy tried to make the situation sound as pitiable as possible.
