Female Novel
Chapter 1417
Luca looked at the numbers on the elevator and kept thinking in her heart about whether Luke had trulymoved on.
Although she knew that it was hard for him to take care of their three children while managing TCorporation, when she thought about a woman appearing next to him to replace her former position,she still felt very sour.
However, Luca knew that even if she was sour about it, it was pointless. After all, she was no longerBianca and she could not tell him that she was once Bianca.
Zoey saw that Luca kept silent and her expression was calm with no waves of jealousy. She thought awoman with an indifferent temper like her was not interested in these gossips, so she said, “Dr. Craw,do you know Tia?”
“I don’t know her.” Luca’s reply was short and simple. There were no fluctuations in her tone as well.
Zoey was sure that she had no interest in Luke’s affairs, so she said, “I heard that Tia is Mrs.Crawford’s therapist. Maybe the boss is treating her to a meal to thank her. You joined us a little later,so you don’t know this but back then, Mrs. Crawford harmed herself. It was Tia who cured her.”
Luca kept listening to Zoey going on and on. She learned Tia’s identity and was not interested in otherthings.
When the elevator arrived at their floor, the doors slowly opened and other T Corporation employeeswere standing inside. Zoey shut her mouth immediately and walked into the elevator with Luca.
Zoey didn’t say much because there were so many other people in the elevator.
After Luca left T Corporation, she stopped a taxi and returned to her apartment.
The other side.
Luke arrived at the French restaurant. He handed the car key to the jockey and asked them to helppark the car. He then walked into the restaurant with Tia.
They were not too intimate nor close, even when they were in the car.
Tia kept looking for topics while Luke replied with few words, but to her, it was good enough that heresponded.
This little bit of proximity made Tia feel sweet. Looking at Luke’s arm, she even had the urge to grab it.She wanted to make the people in the restaurant think that she and he were lovers.
However, Tia did not do it because she still had to maintain her pride.
The waiter led the two of them into the private room. Luke handed Tia the menu and asked her toorder.
Tia was familiar with what Luke liked to eat. She ordered what Luke might like. After ordering, sheasked, “Mr. Crawford, have a look and see what else you would like to have?”
“It’s fine,” Luke said.
Tia was ecstatic. He did not order anything else, which meant that everything she ordered was right.
Maybe Luke would think that they shared the same taste.
The waiter brought a bottle of red wine over and poured them a glass each. Tia raised her glass. Shebehaved elegantly and leaned forward slightly. “Mr. Crawford, shall we have a drink?”
Luke raised his glass and clinked with her.
Throughout the night, Tia was looking for topics. She covered everything from world news, economics,to her hobbies. She was hoping that Luke would share a little more about himself.
Luke was also cooperating with her but he was not probing any further even though he was suspicious.
What he had to do was slowly gain Tia’s trust so that he could obtain information later on.
Tia was not the same as the fake Bianca. Aside from occupying the position of Mrs. Crawford, the fakeBianca was relatively weak in other respects. Few media outlets paid attention to her.
No one would question it if he said that she was studying abroad.
However, Tia was different. She had a certain social status and was also an excellent therapist. Herevery word and action would attract the attention of the media.
He could not forge a behavioral record for Tia, so he could not use the same method of how he used todeal with the fake Bianca on Tia to get a confession.
Luke cooperated with her non-stop conversations and drove her home after dinner.
Tia glanced out of the car window. They arrived at the gate of her own home, and Luke had nointentions of getting out of the car.
She was a little disappointed as she was hoping that something else could happen tonight.
However, if it was so easy, it would not be like Luke…
Tia smiled and opened the car door, then glanced at Luke before she said, “Mr. Crawford, thank you foryour company tonight. I haven’t had dinner with anyone in a long time.”
In addition to expressing gratitude, her words also indicated that she was single.
She was hinting at him.
Luke nodded and said, “You’re welcome. Thank you for this. Let’s have dinner again some other time.”
“Sounds good.” Tia exalted when she heard him say that.
Luke was not an ordinary man who would casually extend an invitation. However, what he just saidmeant that there was a chance for her.
He was different from others. He was very busy and would not entertain others.
Tia happily got out of the car. After what he said, even if their relationship did not progress furthertonight, she had no regrets in her heart.
On the other side.
Luca cooked for Tommy. After the meal, she watched cartoons with him for a while. At nine o’clocksharp, the doorbell rang.
She went to open the door and found that the person standing outside was not Luke but Zander.
She would not think too much of it if it were a normal day. Luke would pick up Tommy only when hewas free and Zander would pick him up when he was not free.
However…
What Zoey said rang in her mind.
“Ms. Luca, I’m here to pick up Young Master Tommy,” Zander said.
Luca snapped out of it, smiled, turned around to look at Tommy, and said, “Tommy, it’s time to gohome.”
Tommy nodded, grabbed his school bag, and saw that Zander was picking him up today. He could nothelp but ask, “Zander, why are you here today? Where’s Daddy?”
“Oh, Young Master Luke said he’s working overtime at the company and he might run late, so he askedme to pick you up.” Zander took Tommy’s hand.
The conversation was plain but Luca became sensitive.
