Chapter 1293 Enjoy Her Cooking Forever

Leia was stunned. Just as she was trying to figure out his words, Jason pushed the door open.

"Please leave, Miss Norman."

Leia left just like that and was dissatisfied. She suddenly realized something. Queenie had mentionedbefore that she could come back as long as Luke gave the word. It turned out this was what she meantby that. Apart from Jack, even the man in front of her was stopping her from going back!

She ignored Jason as she raised her pitch. "Why are you doing this to me? I want to go back!"

Jason frowned when she raised her voice. He knew that this was not going to be easy to handle, so hewalked out and spoke to the secretary, "Tell security to come up here, please."

Leia knew she was going to be dragged downstairs. She shuddered and fell to her knees, "Brother-in-law, I beg you. I just want to go back home."

She had never wanted to call him her brother-in-law, but now, she had no choice but to give in.

Luke glared at her coldly. Her cries for help sounded like insults to him. " Isn't it a little too late to treatBea as your sister?"

Leia shook her head as she sobbed. She did not want to continue living like this. "It's not like that.We've always been family. Please don't be this cruel to me."

The guards quickly arrived at the scene, and Jason gave the order, "Bring her downstairs."

Leia stared at the security guards but she was still shaking her head and begging for mercy. Theguards grabbed her arms and dragged her away, " We're family, you can’t do this to me!" i

Luke said nothing, and the guards did not stop dragging her outside either.

The noise gradually softened but Jason could not help but cover his ears.

He asked, "Boss, why doesn't she want to stay overseas?"

After all, she was the adopted daughter of the Norman family, so her life over here would not be toobad, right? Why did she insist on going back, then?

Jason could not imagine how an ex-superstar suddenly became like this.

Luke knew, though.

Leia wanted to save up on rent so that she could have more money for herself, so she found herself adecent white-collar boyfriend and lived with him.

Despite his flamboyant appearance, he was doing dark and dirty jobs.

Due to that, Leia was also involved. Since she wanted to save herself, she had to go back home. Thatwas why she was willing to do anything out of desperation, even lying to Queenie and promising herboyfriend her hand in marriage in an attempt to go back home to get out of the rut she was in now.

"Get back to work," Luke commanded. He had no sympathy for Leia's predicament at all.

After all, she did that to herself.

It was because she was the Norman family’s adopted daughter and the fact that Bianca was Jack andQueenie’s daughter as well that Luke did not pursue the matter further.

If Leia knew how to discipline herself and appreciate what she had, she would not have ended up likethis.

"Yes." Jason nodded. He knew Luke had arranged for someone to keep an eye on Leia, but they onlyreported directly to Luke. Hence, he had no idea what was going on with Leia.

Tommy walked in with the book in his embrace. He frowned and said," Daddy, was Aunt Leia crying justnow?"

Luke replied as he fixed his gaze on the computer screen. "You don't have an aunt."

Leia was not worthy to be Bianca's sister.

Tommy nodded and replied, "Okay." He said nothing after that. Leia was not welcome among them,after all.

"What do you want for lunch?" Luke asked all of a sudden.

Tommy gave an instinctive reply, "I want Ms. Luca to cook for me!” "She's busy right now," Luke replied.He was not surprised by his kid’s answer,

Luca's cooking was mediocre, but somehow, it bewitched both of them.

It was as if she added some secret sauce that made them come back for more everytime.

As Luke mused over it, he suddenly thought of Bianca. Her food was amazing, and he would never gettired of it. He wanted to enjoy her cooking forever.

Tommy shrugged when he heard that. "Anything will do, then.” "Mm," Luke replied. Then, he shifted hisfocus to the work at hand.

After the training, Luca did not leave alone. Instead, she followed Dr. Albus and the others back to thehotel.

After they arrived, they ate a meal before returning to their own rooms.

After a while, someone came knocking on her door.

Luca opened the door and realized that it was Jason and Tommy.

The kid clung to her immediately. "Ms. Luca, I miss you so much. Did you miss me?"

Luca did not know how to respond, so she caressed the child's head.

Jason brought the kid and came knocking on her bedroom door, which was all too familiar to her.

"Have you had dinner, Dr. Craw?" Jason smiled as he asked courteously.

Luca nodded. "I have. Is anything the matter, Mr. Doyle?”

Before Jason could respond, Tommy said, "Ms. Luca, Daddy is busy, so he asked you to take care ofme for a while."

Jason looked on as the kid was eager to enter the room. He smiled and continued, "Yes, Dr. Craw. Myboss has an important discussion to attend to. Can you look after the kid for a while?" "But I'll bevisiting a friend later on." Luca rejected. It was not like she did not want to, but she simply wanted tocheck out the address Paul gave her.

"You can bring Tommy with you. He's such a good boy, he won't bother you," Jason repliedimmediately.

Tommy nodded in approval. "Ms. Luca, I'm a good boy, and I have good manners. I’ll not give youtrouble."

Luca watched the kid stare at her. She almost wanted to agree, but the place she wanted to go was toodangerous. Taking care of him was one thing, but scarring him for life was another.

"But..."

Before she could finish, Jason interrupted, "It's just a few hours, please. I still have to get changed andaccompany my boss to the discussion. Tommy, you be good, alright? Don't be a troublemaker now."

After that, he left Tommy there and walked to his room.

Tommy stared at her, giving her one of those puppy eyes.

Luca sighed, opened the door, and said, "Come on in, then."novelbin

She intended to depart a little later because nightlife in America had not begun just yet.

However, she kind of regretted not departing sooner.

Tommy heard the tone in her voice and asked anxiously as he walked into the room, "Ms. Luca, don’tyou like me anymore?"

Luca shook her head as she looked at the child’s pitiful expression. "Of course not. Why would I not likeyou anymore?"
