Chapter 2363

Luke pouted as he could not wait to tell the world that his beloved Bianca had returned.

However, he could only comply with her orders as of right now to keep a low profile and not expose heridentity, which made him feel helpless.

He liked to be in control of everything, and he felt a sense of accomplishment knowing that everythingwas going according to his plan.

This situation with Luca gave him a sense of frustration.

Luke tried his best to grasp more about Luca's situation, but he still felt powerless in the end.

“Mr. Crawford?" When Luca noticed his grim expression, she thought that her previous statement hadupset him.

The mall belonged to him, so having someone follow them around while carrying their bags wasnormal. However, they had no choice but to carry their own bags because of her request to keep a lowprofile. Hence, they lost preferential treatment.

"Okay, we can make a few trips so you don't need to carry so much." Luke came to his senses andmade this decision.

He could only carry so much with both his hands, so he had to make a few trips as he could not bearseeing Luca carrying things.

"Oh, alright." Luca was a little surprised as she nodded.

After placing the groceries into the car, Luca brought Luke to the gift shop to help choose gifts for OldMaster Crawford, the Norman family, and the Rayne family,

They were not just any relatives, so she carefully picked out their gifts as they could not be casualabout it.

Luke silently watched her compare different supplements as he believed that her choice was the best.

She understood the condition of Old Master Crawford, the Normans, Old Master Rayne, and evenWanda's health. Thus, she would pick the ones that suited them the best to nourish their body.

Luca selected several products and looked at Luke. "I think these would be suitable."

"Then buy them all." Luke handed the bank card to the staff member.

The staff member's eyes lit up. "Sir, do you want all of these?"

"Yes." Luke nodded.

Luca's original intention was to pick options and let Luke choose from them. She did not expect him tobuy everything. “Mr. Crawford, it's too many..." “We can't visit them often because we're usually busywith work, and we only go during New Year's to send them some supplements, so these aren't much,"said Luke. Her family was family to him as well, so it was not much in his eyes. "I'll take them all."

"Okay, you're gifting them, right?" The staff member confirmed with them as they would include betterpackaging if they were giving them away.

"Yes." Luke nodded.

"Alright, sir, Madam. It may take some time for us to finish packing, so perhaps you can take a seat inthe resting area?" the staff member said smilingly as she swiped Luke's card and handed it backrespectfully.

Luke took it back and walked over to the resting area to take a seat while holding Luca's hand.

They waited for the staff members to finish packing their items.

The two staff members worked efficiently as they were done wrapping the gifts after five minutes. "Sir,Madam, your gifts are ready. Here's a shopping voucher for you. You can drop by anytime in the future.Have a nice day."

Luke took the initiative to carry all the bags.

When Luca was ready to carry them, she saw that he had already taken everything. "You sit here first.I'll go put these in the car."

"There are so many. Let me help you." She stood up.

"No need." Luke refused, not wanting to burden her hands.

The staff noticed and instantly said, "Sir, our staff can help you carry them, but you'll need to lead theway."

"Alright." Luke put down the bags.

The staff member summoned a strong male colleague and said, "Help this gentleman bring these to hiscar."

"Alright, Ms. Nala." The male staff member lifted all the bags.

Luke looked at Luca. "Wait for me here. I'll be back in a bit."

"Okay." Luca realized that Luke did not want her to get tired from running around, so she agreed to sitthere.

Luke left with the male staff member.

Afterward, the remaining staff member said with a smile, "Madam, I'll go serve the other customersnow."

"Alright, don't mind me," said Luca as she took out her phone and scrolled.

A moment later, new customers entered the store.

Luca did not pay much attention to them as she was on her phone, but she froze the moment sheheard their voice.

Mavis looked at the dazzling array of goods and frowned as she asked her good friend, Molly, "Why doyou always come here to buy things before New Year's? You've been giving gifts for years, yet you stillhaven't impressed them. I think you should just save your money and live your own life. He doesn'tcare

about his relationship with his family anyway."

Molly stopped selecting supplements and looked at her. “Marriage isn't a simple family matter. It'scomplicated. You're single, so you won't understand."

"How complicated could it be? He doesn't care about his family and has already married you. You canjust take care of your own family." Mavis did not think that it was that complicated. What could they notsolve with money?

She thought that Molly was too soft. She gave up her career for her small family, which was why shewas looked down on by her husband's family.novelbin

"I want him to get along better with his family. We want children in the future, and we'd need his family'shelp. By the way, how has your love life been lately? I heard that some rich guy is pursuing you. Didyou give him a chance?" Molly asked with a smile.

"What rich guy? He just works in a bank. Forget it, we're not compatible." The smile on Mavis' facedisappeared at the mention of that person.

The person pursuing her was a vice president. His family must be influential and have connections forhim to be able to achieve that position at such a young age.

The way he pursued her was also very brazen. It was in line with what all women would considerromantic, but she just did not like him...

Besides, all these qualities were not outstanding enough in her eyes.

"Even a vice president isn't good enough for you? He's young and successful," said Molly as she didnot understand why Mavis was so picky.

She knew that man as well. He was a handsome man who came from a good family and had a goodjob. He was good enough to be paired up with a strong woman like Mavis.

"How did you even find out about this?" Mavis did not expect that man to be so high profile.

She wondered if everyone who knew her was already aware of this man's existence.

Going to such lengths to make her say yes was foolish.

"Does he not know your preferences?" Molly asked.

"That's what I'm saying. Were you the one who told him?" Mavis had previously wondered how heknew her preferences so well.

"He approached me to ask, but I didn't say much. Perhaps he asked your other friends too." Mollypicked two packets of vitamins and continued to browse other nutritional products.
