Female Novel
Chapter 1451
“Why do you want to stay in a hotel? Isn’t it better to stay in the apartment? Mr. Crawford has speciallymade arrangements for you. I can also take care of you while you’re recuperating,” the maid said afterhearing that Luca wanted to move to a hotel.
Luke had told the maid to prepare Luca’s daily supplements with the ingredients in the kitchen cabinet.
Luca smiled and said, “I don’t think it’s very appropriate. I’m feeling a lot better now, and I don’t needanyone to take care of me.”
The maid smiled and said nothing.
If Luca stayed there, the maid would be slightly busier. If she did not, Luke would not blame the maideither. After all, Luke did not have time to care for petty matters.
A while later, the police officer came back and said, “Pardon me. Your briefcase has been sent to theforensics department, and the investigation is still ongoing, so I can’t return the documents to you yet.We’ll call you in two days so that you can pick up the documents.”novelbin
Luca felt a little troubled upon hearing that.
If she could not retrieve her identification documents, it meant that she could not move to a hotel yet.
“Can’t you do me a favor? I really need the documents,” Luca said.
“I’m really sorry, Miss. I have to follow the rules,” the police officer said.
Luca was not going to throw a tantrum there, so she left with the maid.
After the police officer watched her leave, he went to the superintendent’s office, knocked on the door,and went inside. “Sir, I’ve already detained her identification documents, just as you ordered.”
Actually, the forensics department had already completed the investigation on Luca’s briefcase the daybefore.
They had to prioritize valuable items first, though they did not find anything valuable in Luca’sbriefcase. After the investigation, they returned the briefcase to the police station so that its ownercould come and retrieve it.
However, the superintendent had received orders from Luke to detain the briefcase.
“Mm, very well. Don’t tell anyone about this. You may leave. Also, close the door behind you.” Thesuperintendent was satisfied with what the police officer did.
“Yes.” The police officer nodded and left, closing the door behind him.
After the police officer left, the superintendent gave Luke a call and told him everything that hadhappened.
Luke knew that Luca would go to the police station to retrieve her identification documents, so he hadcalled the superintendent earlier.
He guessed that Luca wanted the identification documents to check into a hotel.
She was supposed to get closer to him, but it was curious that she was trying to distance herself fromhim.
Without her identification documents, Luca could not check into a hotel and had to stay in Luke’sapartment.
Back at the apartment, Luca thought of taking a bath.
She opened the closet and was stunned.
The maid had bought several sets of clothing for her and had placed them in the closet. When Lucaopened the closet, she saw that it was filled with Luke’s clothes.
Luke rarely stayed in the apartment, so the closet was quite small. There were quite a number of suitsinside, and there was not much space for anything else.
Luca could see that the maid had stacked up Luke’s clothes to make space for her clothes.
Luke’s and Luca’s clothes were placed together, as though they were living together.
Three years ago, it was the same situation in their closet at Crawford Manow. Half of the closet wasfilled with Luke’s clothes, and the other half was her clothes.
That was the proof that they lived together.
“Ms. Craw, I’ve prepared your bathwater,” the maid said as she stepped out of the bathroom.
Luca came to her senses. She hurriedly took out a set of clothes from the closet and closed the door,as though she was afraid that someone might notice her.
The maid noticed Luca’s odd behavior and wondered if there was something scary in the closet. Whydid Luca seem so flustered and distracted?
In the evening, Luca noticed that the maid laid three sets of cutlery on the dining table.
“Do we have a guest today? Why is there another set of cutlery?” She asked.
“Yes, Sir has requested it,” the maid said with a smile. “I’ll have to go home later tonight, and I’ll only beback tomorrow morning. There’s enough food in the fridge. If you don’t want to cook, I can preparetomorrow’s breakfast for you, so you only have to heat it in the microwave.”
“It’s fine. I can do it myself.” Luca did not think that she was so pampered.
Now that she was feeling better, she did not want to trouble the maid if she could do it herself.
“Alright, Dr. Craw,” the maid replied and went into the kitchen.

Luca looked at the three sets of cutlery and knew what was going on.
Half an hour later, Luke came into the apartment while holding Tommy’s hand.
Tommy saw Luca sitting on the couch, so he scampered over and hugged her arm. “I miss you somuch, Ms. Luca!”
Luca smiled when she saw the child’s face. “I miss you too. Why did you come here?”
“I asked Daddy to bring me here because I miss you,” Tommy said and turned around to look at hisfather. Then, he turned back to face Luca and complained to her, “I wanted to go to the hospital toaccompany you, but Daddy didn’t let me and asked Uncle Sean to send me home. He didn’t let me visityou yesterday either!”
Luca smiled and stroked his head.
Tommy remained concerned about Luca’s condition. He asked her, “Ms. Luca, Daddy said that you’realready feeling better. Is that true?”
“Yes. I’m feeling a lot better now,” Luca said while stroking his head. Luke was staring at her, whichmade her feel uneasy, but the child managed to calm her down.
Every cell in her body was on alert, as though the man might discern something if she let her guarddown.
Tommy nodded and continued saying, “I’m glad that you’re better now. Your apartment is sodangerous, Ms. Luca. Daddy said it’s not safe there. Why don’t you stay here from now on? It’s near toyour workplace and my school. Also, Daddy’s company developed this neighborhood, so it’s perfectlysafe. What do you think?”
“That’s… an accident. No one wants it to happen,” Luca said, though she could not help but wonder ifLuke had taught him to say that.
